Inventor: TUNKER GERHARD
IPC: E04B1/94
Filed: 1988-08-25
Abstract: Process for the production of a fireproofing composition which expands in the event of a fire and is intended for fireproof glazing, in particular for fireproof glazing consisting of at least two glass panes and at least one cavity between the panes, in which the fireproofing composition is arranged. A water-soluble aluminium salt, an inorganic acid and an amount of water are combined and are reacted to give the fireproofing composition. The aluminium salt used is monoaluminium hydrogen phosphate Al(H2PO4)3 and the inorganic acid used is boric acid, H3BO3. The reaction product is rendered fluid to viscous or extrudable by the amount of water. Particular fireproofing compositions prepared by the process are also described.

Abstract: Stable microemulsion cleaning compositions are described which, in the absence of opacifying component, appear clear to the eye, and which are especially useful for cleaning surfaces having oily or greasy soils thereon, which comprise synthetic organic detergent, water, co-surfactant of a described type, and perfume (or equivalent hydrocarbon). The detergent composition may be concentrated and may be employed as is, or it may be in dilution with water, in the form of a similarly clear and stable microemulsion. In process aspects of the invention both the concentrated and the diluted compositions may be employed to remove oily and greasy stains from substrates, such as normally shiny bathroom fixture and floor and wall surfaces, including tiles, by a "spray and wipe" process, which leaves the surface shiny, with minimal or no rinsing needed. When the invented compositions are acidic they are also useful for removing lime scale and soap scum from hard surfaces. Also described are processes for manufacturing the invented compositions.

Abstract: In the field of regulation of cell proliferation, a method of inhibiting or preventing cell proliferation is disclosed. Rb, a stable protein encoded by the retinoblastoma gene (RB1), is synthesized at all phases of the cell cycle. Newly synthesized Rb is underphosphorylated during the G0 and G1 phases but is phosphorylated at multiple sites at the G1/S boundary and during S phase. HL-60 cells lose their ability to multiply phosphorylate newly synthesized Rb when induced to terminally differentiate by chemicals such as dimethylsulfoxide, retinoic acid and butyric acid. A method of using these chemicals to inhibit or prevent cell proliferation in cells containing Rb is disclosed.

Title: Apparatus and method for improving performance in master and slave communications systems
IPC: H04Q3/62
Filed: 2000-04-26
Abstract: A method and a system for improving the exchange of data between a master system and multiple slave systems involves bundling multiple abbreviated messages into a single frame and transmitting the single frame across a long delay communications link. The abbreviated messages do not comply with a given transmission protocol such as high-level data link control (HDLC), while the single frame does comply with the transmission protocol. The abbreviated messages are then used to build multiple protocol-compliant frames that are sequentially transmitted across short delay communications links. By bundling multiple abbreviated messages into a single frame, the number of frame transmissions required across the long delay communications link is minimized, while the sequential transmission of protocol-compliant frames to and from the slave systems is accomplished.

Filed: 2005-05-16
Abstract: Traffic from a client 1 to a server 4 is tunnelled through firewall 2 using HTTP requests for data from behind the firewall and HTTP responses for data going through the firewall from outside. Means are also provided for maintaining a stock of pending HTTP requests at an HTTP server 4 so that a HTTP response is always available for traffic into the network protected by the firewall. In an embodiment there is provided a network node implementing a TCP/IP protocol stack and a HTTP client, wherein the stack supplies packet data and if the data is destined for a predetermined address or port the data is passed to the HTTP client (rather than the physical layer), and the HTTP client is configured to encapsulate the packet data in a HTTP request to send to the server. The HTTP request would be able to pass through a restrictive firewall 2 on a normal, unrestricted, HTTP port. In a further embodiment a network node comprises HTTP server means which receives data encapsulated in HTTP requests and defers sending a response to the request until packet data, for the sender of the request, has been supplied from a request from another client.
