Title: Billing process and system in a telecommunication network
Inventor: RITTER RUDOLF
IPC: H04M15/00
Filed: 1998-09-08
Abstract: A billing method and billing system to determine usage fees which are charged to the user of a digital telecommunications network, whereby a usage fee charged for a connection is determined prior to establishing this connection from statistical characteristics of previous connections of the user, is described. Usage fees are determined from a dynamic client profile, derived from one or multiple random variables of previous connections of the user, which is stored in memory and re-derived after each new customer connection. In a simple variant, the client profile contains a value proportional to the average price per connection or to the average duration of a connection of the user. The random variables used to derive the client profile include, for example, the connection duration, the time of day, the day of the week, and/or geographic characteristics of previous connections.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé utile pour la synthèse de molécules de polynucléotides telles que des gènes ou des segments de gène. Une amorce qui comporte des extrémités 5' et 3' est incubée avec un modèle relativement plus court comportant une région 5' non complémentaire à l'amorce, une région 3' complémentaire à l'extrémité 3' de l'amorce, et une extrémité 3' non réactive pour permettre à la région 3' du modèle de fusionner avec l'amorce. Le produit fusionné est mis à réagir avec au moins un nucléotide en présence d'une polynucléotide polymérase dépendant du modèle afin de produire une amorce étendue à son extrémité 3' au moyen d'au moins un nucléotide complémentaire à la région 5' du modèle. Après que l'amorce étendue s'est dissociée du modèle, celle-ci est étendue davantage par répétition du cycle selon un nombre suffisant de cycles, les modèles et les enzymes pouvant différer d'un cycle à l'autre, en vue d'obtenir le polynucléotide voulu. Des banques de modèles et des trousses contenant ceux-ci sont également décrites.

Abstract: Methods for heating tissue by delivering radio frequency energy through tissue electrodes comprise controlling energy delivery so that an abrupt increase in impedance between the electrodes and the tissue is observed, typically in the form of an abrupt decrease in power delivered to the electrodes. The power at which the impedance increases and/or the time required to induce such an increase in impedance, are relied on to determine acceptable ranges to achieve a maximum sustainable delivery of radio frequency energy to the tissue consistent with complete, rapid, and uniform heating of the tissue.

Patent EP-1017946-A1 (EP)
Inventor: HULLMANN KLAUS
IPC: F16B37/02
Filed: 1998-10-15
Abstract: The invention relates to a nut-like fastening element which serves a screwed connection of construction parts and plates. The inventive fastening element is comprised of a threaded plate (1) with a passage opening (3) for the screw (15, 16), and a half shell-shaped supporting wall (4) which is formed in the threaded plate (1), surrounds the passage opening (3) and is provided for the screw shaft (16). The inventive fastening element also comprises a locking plate (2) which is arranged opposite the supporting wall (4). In an insertion direction of the screw (15, 16), the locking plate which is constructed with a curved catching edge (7) projects diagonally relative to the screw axis into the passage opening (3). The backward edge (8) of said locking plate (2) is supported and pivotably mounted in a bearing channel (5) which is formed in the threaded plate (1) such that the catching edge (7) resiliently gives when the screw shaft (16) is inserted, whereas said catching edge sinks into one of the threaded channels (16') when the screw (15, 16) is pulled thereby pressing the shaft (16) firmly against the supporting wall (4). The inventive locknut is easy to produce and allows for quick prevention of free travel, since the biggest part of the screw shaft (16) must be merely pressed into the threaded opening (3) against the force of an elastic element (spring plate 11) until the screw head (15) lies loosely thereon.

Abstract: Commencing from a first steady state, the control variable (y) of the first controller (33) is set to a first constant value (80%) and that of the second (34) is cut off. Following determination of a turning point in the curve of control variable (x), a first IT1 model of the control processing system (32) is identified. The process is controlled as a function of the first IT1 model, at least close to a second steady state (170 degrees C) differing from the first. From the tangent (wh) at the first turning point, the value of the variable (y) and the control variable (x) from the first and second steady states, a VZ2 model is identified. Commencing from a first steady state, the control variable (y) of the first controller (33) is set to a first constant value (80%) and that of the second (34) is cut off. Following determination of a turning point in the curve of control variable (x), a first IT1 model of the control processing system (32) is identified. The process is controlled as a function of the first IT1 model, at least close to a second steady state (170 degrees C) differing from the first. From the tangent (wh) at the first turning point, the value of the variable (y) and the control variable (x) from the first and second steady states, a VZ2 model is identified. The VZ2 model describes the kinetics of the process (32) and the amplification coefficient for the first controller (33). From the second steady state on, the first controller (33) is switched off and the control variable of the second (34) is set to a second constant value (20%). Once a second turning point in the curve of the control magnitude (x) has been determined, an amplification coefficient for the second actuator (34) is determined, in accordance with the formula: kik = (dxwk/dt + Kih . yinfinity)/(YLLMTUM). In this equation : dxwk/dt is the gradient of the tangent at the second turning point and (kik) is the process amplification coefficient of the identified first IT1 model. yinfinity is the value of the magnitude (y) in the second steady state. YLLMTUM is the second constant value of the control variable. An Independent claim is included for equipment based on the method, used e.g. to control a plastic extruder. There are controllers heating, and others cooling, operating at different intensities. Preferred features: Salient features include the 170 degrees C typical working point of a steady state, following heating. The control process is further elaborated mathematically, including formulae in the form of approximations, polynomial series expansions, up to fifth order with respect to the process path time constants ratio. Quantified empirical constants are also provided.
