Patent EP-1549180-A4 (EP)
Inventor: SMITH PETER
IPC: A47C27/10
Filed: 2003-05-02
Abstract: L'invention concerne une vessie qu'on peut utiliser sous une de ses formes possibles dans un coussin ou comme coussin. Cette vessie présente des première et seconde parties en couches, accolées (10 et 11) qui sont formées à partir d'une matière de plastique en feuille étanche aux fluides. La première partie (10) de la vessie est constituée de compartiments (16 à 19) qui s'étendent vers une région périphérique de la vessie et qu'on dispose pour les remplir avec un fluide, généralement de l'air. La second partie (11) de la vessie est accouplée à la première partie (10) de la vessie sur une région centrale (20) de la première partie qu'on ne remplit pas avec le fluide, mais à partir de laquelle s'étendent les compartiments de réception de fluide (16 à 19). On place la second partie (11) de la vessie indépendamment de la première partie (10) à remplir d'un bout à l'autre avec le fluide. Lorsque la vessie est prête pour être utilisée, on remplit avec le fluide les compartiments de réception de fluide (16 à 19) de la première partie (10) de la vessie jusqu'à un certain degré requis, comme cela est le cas pour la globalité de la seconde partie (11) de la vessie. Par conséquent, la première partie (10) de la vessie contribue à la disposition de la seconde partie (11) de la vessie, au moins dans les zones de contact entre la seconde partie et les compartiments de réception de fluide (16 à 19) de la première partie.

Title: Method for controlling snack product blistering through the use of solid lipid particles
Inventor: HANDER JENNIFER ELIZABETH
IPC: A23L19/18
Filed: 2003-07-08
Abstract: An improved method for controlling blister formation in fabricated, expanded snack products by utilizing discrete, solid lipid particles. These lipids must be solid at room temperature with a melting point above 100° F. such that they remain discrete and solid when mixed with the dough and are subsequently sheeted or extruded. During the toasting, frying, or baking step, the solid, lipid particles melt and soften and disrupt the starch matrix, thus allowing steam to escape and preventing blisters. The blisters are only prevented, however, in the localized area where a solid, lipid particle exists. Thus, by changing the level of solid, lipid particles in the dough, the size of resulting blisters can be controlled.

Title: Determining threat level associated with network activity
Inventor: CONNARY IVEN
IPC: H04L12/26
Filed: 2003-08-26
Abstract: Network devices such as intrusion detection systems, routers, firewalls, servers, and other network devices are monitored to aggregate all event data generated by monitored devices to provide a threat ranking of all network activity. A threat level for a given host is determined by a threat weighting assigned to that host and a threat weighting assigned to that host's netblock. In addition, a vulnerability for a given event is determined by the event's destination threat associated with a vulnerability value indexed by the event's destination and the event's type.

Title: Tracking a surface in a 3-dimensional scene using natural visual features of the surface
Inventor: KATO HIROKAZU
IPC: G06F17/50
Filed: 2003-10-22
Abstract: A facility for determining the 3-dimensional location and orientation of a subject surface in a distinguished perspective image of the subject surface is described. The subject surface has innate visual features, a subset of which are selected. The facility uses the location of the selected visual features in a perspective image of the subject surface that precedes the distinguished perspective image in time to identify search zones in the distinguished perspective image. The facility searches the identified search zones for the selected visual features to determine the 2-dimensional locations at which the selected visual features occur. Based on the determined 2-dimensional locations, the facility determines the 3-dimensional location and orientation of the subject surface in the distinguished perspective image.

Title: No-apical meristem proteins, polynucleotides and methods of use for same
Inventor: GUO MEI
IPC: C12N15/82
Filed: 2003-05-15
Abstract: The present invention provides polynucleotides and related polypeptides of the protein ZMNAM isolated from maize endosperm. The invention provides genomic sequence for the ZMNAM gene. ZMNAM is a novel gene and is regulated by gene-specific imprinting. ZMNAM expression is endosperm-specific and expressed throughout the endosperm development, peaking at 25 DAP. Genomic imprinting has been implicated to play a role in endosperm development. Genes regulated by allele-specific imprinting are suspected to be non-essential to seed development. Gene-specific imprinting however, regulates developmentally important genes. The ZMNAM gene, a putative transcriptional factor, may play an important role in endosperm development, which may further affect kernel size, plant vigor during germination and at the early seedling stage.

Title: Email using queues in non-persistent memory
Inventor: ADDANTE FRANK
IPC: H04Q7/20
Filed: 2004-02-11
Abstract: An E-mail processing system that preferably operates solely within nonpersistent storage such as random access memory. Queues of e-mails are formed within the random access memory, where each queue includes a pointer to personalized information about the e-mail, directed to a specific domain. In order to send the e-mail, a channel is opened to the domain, and while open, e-mails within the queue are sent. A special recovery agent periodically takes snapshots of the state of processing within the system. Since the processing is occurring within nonpersistent storage, a failure within the system can be recovered by using the snapshots to recover where each e-mail is processing. in one aspect, the feed rate to the other e-mail servers is adjusted based on the rate of those e-mail servers. Also, the system asynchronously looks up information such as DNS information while it is processing information for other e-mails.

Title: An implantable heart stimulation device and method
Inventor: BJOERLING ANDERS
IPC: A61N1/362
Filed: 2005-11-23
Abstract: The above object is achieved in accordance with the present invention by a cardiac stimulation device for stimulating a heart having a first ventricle and a second ventricle. The device includes a first ventricle sensing circuit that is configured to communicate with a first ventricle sensing electrode suited to be positioned in or at the first ventricle, to enable the first ventricle sensing circuit to sense the first ventricle. The device also includes a second ventricle pacing circuit, configured to communicate with a second ventricle pacing electrode suited to be positioned in or at the second ventricle of the heart, to enable the second ventricle pacing circuit to pace the second ventricle. The device includes a control circuit that operates with time cycles corresponding to normal heart cycles. The control circuit is configured to, within such a time cycle, to detect a cardiac event in the first ventricle with the first ventricle sensing circuit and, after a time duration that is greater than or equal to zero, to cause the second ventricle pacing circuit to deliver a pacing pulse. The control circuit is also configured to detect the aforementioned loop of events indicative of the pacemaker-mediated tachycardia by detecting one or both of (i) the regularity of one or more repetitious events related to operation of the first ventricle sensing circuit or the second ventricle pacing circuit, and (ii) a repetitive operation pattern of the heart stimulation device. The control circuit is configured to determine if the detected regularity satisfies a predetermined regularity criterion and to determine if the operation pattern satisfies a predetermined operation pattern criterion. Based on whether one or both of these criteria are satisfied, the control circuit determines whether the aforementioned loop of events, and thus the presence of pacemaker-mediated tachycardia, is likely to exist.
