Abstract: The retransmission timer has the delay (RTO) of the transmission timer adjusted as a statistical function of the send/return time (RTT). The statistics include a dispersion estimation and there is a step introduced in the send/return time to control dispersion and guaranteeing a minimal value. Thus spurious time outs are reduced considerably.

Abstract: Cette invention concerne des méthodes de des compositions qui permettent de modifier un signal RTK/PTK en un signal apoptotique au sein d'une cellule. Sont décrites des méthodes et des compositions permettant d'activer un signal apoptotique dans une cellule. La démarche consiste à relier une voie de signalisation RTK/PTK transduisant un signal RTK/PTK dans cette cellule à une voie de signalisation apoptotique transduisant un signal apoptotique dans ladite cellule, le résultat étant une amplification de ce signal apoptotique dans la cellule. Il est possible de relier une voie de signalisation RTK/PTK à une voie apoptotique dans une cellule en créant dans cette même cellule une nouvelle voie de signalisation comprenant des molécules de signalisation d'une voie de signalisation RTK/PTK qui transduisent un signal RTK/PTK, et des molécules de signalisation de la voie de signalisation apoptotique qui favorisent l'apoptose. Dans une cellule, une voie de signalisation RTK/PTK peut être reliée à une voie de signalisation apoptotique. A cette fin, on utilise, dans une molécule de signalisation, un domaine qui régule le signal RTK/PTK et un domaine qui favorise l'apoptose. L'invention porte sur des applications pour ces méthodes et compositions.

Abstract: Procédé et système permettant de reconstruire une image d'empreinte digitale continue à partir de tranches d'images, ou de trames, fournies par un détecteur à balayage d'empreintes digitales. L'évaluation des trames et la mise en correspondance d'images se fait au moyen de techniques de corrélation croisée normalisées robustes. L'invention concerne l'utilisation efficace de ressources de traitement de dispositif consistant à ne conserver que les trames de données qui indiquent un mouvement du doigt et à rejeter les trames sans doigt au niveau du détecteur au moment de l'acquisition de données ou avec doigt qui n'a pas bougé depuis la dernière acquisition de trames. Cette invention offre la possibilité de retoucher les réglages du détecteur pendant le processus d'acquisition et d'optimiser les résultats. La logique permet d'utiliser différents système physiques et différentes caractéristiques de détection avec des vitesses d'acquisition variables. Des statistiques relatives à l'image ainsi reconstruite et le processus de balayage du doigt, qui sont calculés et incorporés dans l'image reconstruite, sont exploités en aval dans le système de mise en correspondance des empreintes digitales. Grâce à l'intégration dans l'image, le système et le procédé selon l'invention garantissent que tout système de traitement d'empreintes digitales peut utiliser l'information chaque fois qu'il est sollicité en ce sens.

Abstract: The invention provides a system for controlling the charging
of a secondary battery (battery), which is capable of
keeping an initial charging/discharging characteristic of
the battery in consideration of a change in environmental
temperature and deterioration of the battery with elapsed
time. 
     In the invention, an ordinary charging portion 6 for
performing a first charging control specified to stop the
charging at a charge level less than a full-charge level
is used in combination with a refresh charging portion 7
for performing a second charging control specified to
stop the charging at a charge level more than the full-charge
level. After the charging by the ordinary charging
portion 6 is continuously repeated by a specific number
of times, for example, ten times, the next charging is
performed by the refresh charging portion 7. The cut-off
voltage used for the ordinary charging portion 6 and
refresh charging portion 7 is determined by correcting a
reference voltage V0 on the basis of an environmental
temperature TA0 detected by an environmental temperature
detecting portion 21. The deterioration of the battery 11
is corrected on the basis of a reference full-charge 
voltage, an initial full-charge voltage Vmax(1), a
present full-charge voltage Vmax(n), an initial maximum
battery temperature Tmax(1), and a present maximum
battery temperature Tmax(n).

Abstract: A sample pretreatment system is equipped with a label
sticking apparatus for sticking labels on containers. In this
system, a manipulator 72 grasps and holds a container before
label sticking from the pipetting apparatus to convey it to
a receiving position on the line L-L along with the
raising/lowering path of a container holding device 82. The
container holding device 82 is raised by the raising/lowering
mechanism 86 to be positioned at a receiving position in a
complexly opened state. After receiving the container, the
container holding device 82 is lowered, and then the container
holding device 82 carries out the closing operation according
to the lowering motion, thereby enabling to hold the container
reliably irrespective of the diameter of the container. At
the label sticking position which is set at a lower position,
a label is stuck to the container. Then, the container holding
device 82 is raised, and the transfer mechanism 83 rotates the
labeled container which has been raised to the buffer position
on the line B-B for a temporally evacuation. This sample
pretreatment system makes it possible to handle containers of
various diameters and carry out efficient container conveyance
and label sticking with a simple structure.
