Title: Communications network
Inventor: LANZONE SERGIO
IPC: H04L12/56
Filed: 2002-08-09
Granted: 2012-02-14
Abstract: A method for protection of STM-n/OC-n clear channel connections calls for a protection diagram allowing protection of STM-n/OC-n clear channel signals transmitted from a source point to a destination point. This protection allows overcoming a fall along the path between source point and destination point.  It can be used in different types of network structure, for example "ring" or "mesh". The method calls for duplication of STM-n/OC-n signals at the transmitting end of the subnetwork and transmission over two different routes which can be defined work subnetwork and protection subnetwork. To ensure success of the protection diagram the work and protection channels follow different routes. At the receiving end the signal is selected from the work path or the protection path depending on the quality of the received signals, the protection state and the external commands.

Abstract: An instrument and method for variable depth tillage is provided. A soil engaging implement has a pair of load cells and at least one strain gauge set mounted thereon. The load cells are used to determine a linear trend of topsoil resistance pressure change with depth as the soil engaging implement is drawn through the soil. The strain gauges are used to measure torque on the soil engaging implement caused by the load transmitted through the at least two load cells as well as the load applied to the point of the soil engaging implement. The linear trend of topsoil resistance pressure change with depth and the torque on the soil engaging implement are then used to determine both measured and predicted mechanical soil resistance to penetration applied to the point and the difference between the two values serves as an input for tillage depth adjustment.

Patent CA-2490864-C (CA)
Inventor: SLEPNEV VLADIMIR I
IPC: G01N21/78
Filed: 2003-06-20
Granted: 2012-09-11
Abstract: The invention relates to methods of genotyping single nucleotide differences in a nucleic acid sample. More particularly, the invention provides methods of identifying the nucleotide at a polymorphic site or a group of polymorphic sites in a sample of genomic DNA. The method uses tagged primer extension in which a set of tag sequences correspond to the identity of the nucleotides at the polymorphic sites. Primer extension products are PCR amplified using a common set of tag-specific primers, the downstream primers bearing distinguishable labels. Following separation by size and/or charge, the detection of distinguishable label in a product of the anticipated size determines the identity of the nucleotide at the polymorphic site. The method is well-suited for the genotyping of multiple single-nucleotide differences in one series of reactions.
