Abstract: A system and method for pushing information from a host system to a mobile data communication device upon sensing a triggering event is disclosed. A redirector program operating at the host system enables a user to continuously redirect certain user-selected data items from the host system to the user's mobile data communication device upon detecting that one or more user-defined triggering events has occurred. The redirector program operates in connection with event-generating applications and repackaging systems at the host system to configure and detect a particular user-defined event, and then to encrypt and repackage the user-selected data items in an electronic wrapper prior to pushing the data items to the mobile device.

Abstract: A system is disclosed for eliminating sway of a load in a crane or crane-like system subject to operator's command. The load is suspended by a cable from a horizontally movable trolley and can be hoisted vertically. The system uses the principle of cancellation to eliminate sway even when the crane has simultaneous horizontal trolley and vertical hoisting motions. The system takes into account the full dynamical effect in computing cancellation signals. The use of a family of ordinary differential equations for the computation of the cancellation controls is a key component of the invention. In computing these controls, the differential equations are solved in real time using sensory measurement of the cable length and its time derivative.

Granted: 2006-12-13
Abstract: In cascade refrigeration systems using CO2 as effective refrigerant in a highly advantageous manner there are severe problems with respect to defrosting in freezer equipments calling for operative defrosting, e.g. in plate freezer units in fishing vessels. The invention provides for a long row of advantages in this respect in arranging for the use of a dedicated defrost compressor operable to selectively furnish heated CO2 gas from the discharge side of the refrigeration compressor to the freezer units. This particular compressor can be of a simple and inexpensive type, and from a control point of view all that is needed is to arrange for well known automatic adjustment of the discharge capacity of the compressor to preset temperature/pressure value as may be desirable for different defrosting jobs.

Abstract: An electrical connector has a compressible portion that expands to accept an inserted lead and then contracts around the lead to provide both an electrical and a spring-like mechanical connection to the lead. The connector may have a fluted pin that collapses around the lead body when a set screw of the connector port is tightened. Alternatively, a middle segment of a pin may have indentations or slots that collapse around an inserted lead body. The connector can be attached to the lead body after the lead body is implanted in the body of the patient. In lead systems in which the lead body is implanted using a guide catheter, attaching the connector to the lead body after implantation makes removal of the guide catheter much less difficult.

Abstract: Feedback timing control equipment and process for an injection seeded modular gas discharge laser. A preferred embodiment is a system capable of producing high quality pulsed laser beams at pulse rates of about 4,000 Hz or greater and at pulse energies of about 5 to 10 mJ or greater for integrated outputs of about 20 to 40 Watts or greater. The feedback timing control is programmed to permit in some circumstances discharges timed so that no significant laser energy is output from the system. Use of this technique permits burst mode operation in which the first discharge of a burst is a no-output discharge so that timing parameters for each of the two chambers can be monitored before the first laser output pulse of the burst. Two separate discharge chambers are provided, one of which is a part of a master oscillator producing a very narrow band seed beam which is amplified in the second discharge chamber. The chambers can be controlled separately permitting optimization of wavelength parameters in the master oscillator and optimization of pulse energy parameters in the amplifying chamber.

Abstract: High availability for a fibre channel switch in a storage area network can be implemented using redundant supervisors. An active supervisor can identify high availability characteristics associated with a message and determine whether the message should be mirrored onto a redundant supervisor, logged, and/or made persistent. Messages can be logged in a pending transaction buffer and stored using persistent storage services. Mirroring can be performed using synchronization queues that allow messages to be passed asynchronously to a redundant supervisor while maintaining full synchronization between supervisors and causing little delay to operation of the active supervisor.

Abstract: A system for accurately guiding a laser focal point along a predetermined path within the stroma of a cornea includes a contact lens for conforming the anterior surface of the cornea to a radius of curvature, Rlens, that is approximately 8.3mm. Conforming the cornea to the lens causes minimal discomfort to the patient and does not upset the three-dimensional architecture of the corneal lamellae. As the focal point is advanced along a path within the cornea, the laser source is selectively translated parallel to the optical axis of the cornea to control the depth of the laser focal point. The movement includes three components: a first component, z1 that is dependent upon the shape of the contact lens, a second component, z2 that compensates for refraction at the surfaces of the contact lens, and a third component, z3, that compensates for refraction caused by the anatomical configuration of the cornea. <IMAGE>
