Title: Character inputting device
Inventor: OH EUI-JIN
IPC: G06F3/02
Filed: 2006-11-10
Abstract: Disclosed is a character input device including an input means for enabling direction movement input and direction pressing input; a movement input detector for detecting the direction movement input; a pressing input detector for detecting the direction pressing input; and a controller for extracting characters from a memory for execution, the characters corresponding to a result of detection performed by the movement input detector and the pressing input detector. The new type of character input device enables its user to input desired characters accurately while minimizing space necessary for character input. In addition, direction movement input and direction pressing input can be combined to input at least two phonemes through a single consecutive operation. This guarantees rapid character input. Furthermore, the minimized input space facilitates compactness and slimness of the product.  Therefore, the character input device is applicable to various types of portable electronic appliances, including PDAs, laptop computers, and portable mobile communication terminals.

Abstract: Expression of the E4 orf 1 gene of Ad-36 alone has been discovered to be responsible for the increased insulin sensitivity observed in Ad-36 infected animals, including increased adipogenesis. Ad-36 E4 orf 1 protein can be used to increase insulin sensitivity and ameliorate diabetes. Additionally, drugs that mimic the action of Ad-36 E4 orf 1 protein could be found. Ad-36 E4 orf 1 could also be used to increase fat cells in lipodystrophy. We have also discovered that Ad-36 infection in human skeletal muscle cells increased differentiation and insulin independent glucose uptake. It is expected that infection with Ad-36 E4 orf 1 gene will also cause these effects.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the field of identity verification. More specifically, the present invention relates to methods and systems for verifying the identity of an individual. The method for verifying the identity of an individual includes the step of transmitting from a customer system to a customer connector server a request for identity verification containing identification information provided by the individual to be identified. At the customer connector server, at least one verification service required to satisfy the request for identity verification is identified from the request for identity verification. An appropriate data manager server from a plurality of data manager servers is selected for each verification service, based on a first set of predetermined criteria. A corresponding request for verification service is then transmitted to each appropriate data manager server. At each appropriate data manager server, at least one data access service required to permit the identification information provided by the individual to be verified against identity information relating to the individual contained within the at least one data source, is identified from the corresponding request for verification service. An appropriate data connector server from a plurality of data connector servers is thereafter selected for each data access service, based on a second set of predetermined criteria.  Subsequently, a corresponding request for data access service is transmitted to each appropriate data connector server. At least one data source is accessed from each appropriate data connector server in connection with each request for data access service. The identification information provided by the individual is verified against the identity information relating to the individual contained within the at least one data source. Next, a response indicating whether the identity of the individual has been authenticated or not is generated and communicated to the customer system.  A system for implementing such an identity verification method is also described.

Abstract: A fiber reinforced core panel is formed from strips of plastics foam heli cally wound with layers of rovings to form webs which may extend in a wave p attern or may intersect transverse webs. Hollow tubes may replace foam strip s. Axial rovings cooperate with overlying helically wound rovings to form a beam or a column. Wound roving patterns may vary along strips for structural efficiency. Wound strips may alternate with spaced strips, and spacers betw een the strips enhance web buckling strength. Continuously wound rovings bet ween spaced strips permit folding to form panels with reinforced edges. Cont inuously wound strips are helically wrapped to form annular structures, and composite panels may combine both thermoset and thermoplastic resins. Contin uously wound strips or strip sections may be continuously fed either longitu dinally or laterally into molding apparatus which may receive skin materials to form reinforced composite panels.
