Patent EP-1418948-A1 (EP)
Inventor: AMALFITANO ANDREA
IPC: A61K48/00
Filed: 2002-05-31
Abstract: The present invention provides replicating [100K-] adenovirus vectors that have an impairment in 100K activity. In particular preferred embodiments, the impairment is the result of a deletion in the 100K coding region of the adenovirus vector genome. It is further preferred that the adenovirus produces the E1 gene products. In an alternate embodiment, the adenovirus produces the E1a gene products, but has an impairment in the E1b coding region, such that replication of the virus is limited to p53- cells. Also described are methods of making and administering the inventive adenovirus vectors to a cell or to a subject. Further provided is use of the inventive [100K-] Ad vectors as a helper virus for the production of vector stocks of adeno-associated virus.

Title: Method for reducing the latency during the transmission of information in a gprs network
Inventor: HAKE JENS
IPC: H04L12/56
Filed: 2002-05-29
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for reducing the latency in a GPRS network, via which information is transmitted between a data requesting unit, i.e. a client ( 1 ), and a data-providing unit, i.e. a server ( 9 ), in the form of data packets. In order to transmit the data packets from the client ( 1 ) to the server ( 9 ), at least one first communication channel (UL-TBF) is opened and then closed. At least a second communication channel (DL-TBF) is then opened and closed for transmitting information from the server ( 9 ) to the client ( 1 ). A not insignificant latency is thus produced between the request for information and the receipt of information, which can be reduced, according to the invention, by opening the second communication channel (DL TBF) before closing the first communication channel (UL-TBF). A radio channel is thus provided for preventive purposes, for the feedback of the requested data.

Abstract: Disclosed is a shim or a valve lifter for an automotive
engine valve driving system that slides against a cam lobe
of a camshaft to drive an intake/exhaust valve of an internal
combustion engine. The shim or lifter has the top of a sliding
surface thereof opposing the cam lobe and being coated with
a hard carbon film. The hard carbon film has a surface
hardness of 1500 to 4500 kg/mm 2  in terms of Knoop hardness,
a thickness of 0.3 to 2.0 µm and a surface roughness Ry (µm)
satisfying the following equation (A):
 Ry < {(0.75 - Hk/8000) × h + 0.07/0.8} 
where h is the thickness (µm) of the hard carbon film; and
Hk is the knoop hardness (kg/mm 2 ) of the hard carbon film.
By imparting durability, reliability and a low friction
coefficient to the hard carbon film that is said to be low
in ductility to prevent the hard carbon film from becoming
cracked and separated when applied to the sliding portion,
the shim or lifter for the automotive engine valve driving
system and the combination of such a shim or lifter and the
camshaft can be thus provided with excellent friction
characteristics and high durability.
