Abstract: A method for using a Synchronization Interface in a computer system compliant with
a CORBA Object Transaction Service or a Java Transaction API (such as Java 2 Platform
Enterprise Edition Reference Implementation) to perform internal state clean up in containers
associated with a completed transaction. First, a synchronization object is registered for each
new transaction in a container with a Transaction Manager. The Transaction Manager detects
a completion of the transaction and then invokes an "after_completion" operation (method)
on the synchronization object. This notifies each container involved in the completed
transaction to perform internal memory space clean up. Thus, the method uses an existing
Synchronization Interface mechanism to perform internal memory state clean up in
containers, without adding additional communication mechanisms.

IPC: G02B6/245

Abstract: The invention is a method of making a polymer-clad optical fiber that comprises
a step of determining at a plurality of temperatures the delamination resistance of the
polymer coating from the fiber. 
     The delamination resistance of the coated optical fiber is preferably measured at
two different temperatures: advantageously at a temperature in the ambient range for
fiber use (typically room temperature) and at an elevated temperature used in field
stripping the fiber. The delamination resistance at ambient temperature can be
compared with a predetermined target value for delamination resistance in use. The
delamination resistance at elevated temperature can be compared with a predetermined
lower target value for ease of strippability. 
     Coated optical fiber having delamination resistances outside the predetermined
ranges will typically be rejected, but can be used in applications that have different
delamination resistance requirements.

IPC: H04M11/00
Filed: 2000-10-03
Abstract: A line powered data access arrangement (DAA) is disclosed which adaptively
allows proper operation with power supplied from a telephone line as conditions
warrant, while at the same time satisfying the relevant requirements of many
countries. In the line powered codec, a startup procedure for the international line
powered codec uses register settings, e.g., country-specific register settings, which
are powered and maintained from the low voltage side (e.g., from the PC or modem
side) of the line powered codec. In this way, even during low line power conditions
the programmed state of the line powered codec can be maintained, thus a default
condition will not necessarily returned to by the line powered codec upon reset due to
a power loss in the telephone line. In another aspect, a charge storage device such
as a charge capacitor is charged from a charge pump formed from a differential clock
signal from the low voltage side. A current and voltage detection module in the line
powered codec is always powered from the telephone line. Upon detection of an off-hook
signal or a power down condition, the current detection module determines
if/when the current and voltage on the telephone line is sufficient to power certain
circuits on the line powered codec. If sufficient power is not present, the line powered
codec does not power up. However, the line powered codec will power up if sufficient
current is detected. In another aspect, a plurality of power rails may be provided. A
first power rail may be associated with the line power, a second power rail may be
associated with a low voltage side power source, e.g., a charge storage device. A
third (and other) power rails may be switchably connected to either the first power rail
or second power rail as line power conditions and on-hook/off-hook conditions
warrant.

Abstract: A series arrangement of an isolating diode (D 1 ) and an East-West switching
transistor (Q 1 ) is coupled between a flyback transformer primary winding (W 1 )
and a horizontal deflection output transistor (Q 2 ) to control retrace energy to
obtain an East-West modulation of the deflection current amplitude. A first
inductor(L 2 ), a tapped inductor (L 1 ) and an S-shaping capacitor (C 2 ) are coupled
via a switch (D, Q 1 ) to form a trace resonant circuit, during the first half of trace.
The tapped inductor includes a portion (L 1 a) forming a current path for a
deflection current (iLY). The tapped inductor develops a voltage (VL 1 ) that
controls the switch. The first inductor, the tapped inductor and the S-shaping
capacitor are coupled via the switch to form the trace resonant circuit, during the
first half of trace. The trace resonant circuit provides inside pincushion raster

Abstract: Disclosed are a variety of methods for achieving enhanced expression from a target nucleotide sequence in a plant e.g. comprising the step of transiently introducing into a tissue of a plant (e.g. a leaf) a first nucleic acid comprising the target nucleotide sequence and a second nucleic acid encoding a Post Transcriptional Gene Silencing (PTGS) suppressor protein (preferably of viral or plant origin), wherein the first and second nucleic acids are comprised within a single binary vector, construct, or the first and second nucleic acid sequences are comprised within a first binary vector and a second binary vector construct respectively. The plant tissue may then be harvested for the protein. Such methods can give much higher levels of gene expression than are obtainable using stable transgenes, or certain replicating vectors. Also disclosed are specific PTGS suppressor proteins: potato virus X (pvx), p25 protein; african cassava mosaic virus (acmv) AC2 protein; rice yellow mottle virus (rymv) P1 protein; tomato bushy stunt virus (tbsv) 19K protein; plus variants of these. These suppressors may be used in any PTRS context, including the enhancement of transient expression systems.
