Title: System and method for managing connections between clients and a server with independent connection and data buffers
Inventor: WEATHERFORD WILLIAM T
IPC: G06F15/00
Filed: 2000-11-13
Abstract: An adapter card (108) for managing connections between clients (109) and a network server (106) off-loads the connection management burden from the server (106). The adapter card (108) includes a memory (124) with an embedded proxy application (132) and a communication protocol stack (134), a processing unit (126) for executing the application code, a network controller (129) for interfacing with an internetwork (102), and a bus protocol bridge (128) for interfacing with the internal bus (120) of the network server (106). The proxy application (132) receives client requests on behalf of the server (106) over relatively slow and unreliable network connections, and submits the requests to the server (106) over fast, reliable bus connections. Buffers (1212) are allocated to a particular client connection only after it is determined that data will be exchanged between the server (106) and the client (109).

Patent CA-2393971-A1 (CA)
Inventor: MCCONNELL DAVID A
IPC: G06F17/50
Filed: 2000-11-02
Abstract: A method for implementing the physical design for a dynamically reconfigurable logic circuit. The method is carried out using software that forms a physical design flow to take a design specification from a schematic or high-level description language (HDL) through to FPGA configuration bitstream files. The method involves reading a design netlist (160) that was entered, the design netlist (160) including a set of static macros (140) and a set of reconfigurable macro contexts (150). Then, each of the reconfigurable macros (150) are compiled and an initial device context is placed and routed. The device context is updated by arbitrarily selecting a context for each reconfigurable macro, placing and routing the updated device context and repeating the steps of updating, placing and routing until all of the reconfigurable macro contexts have been placed and routed. Then, after the compilation process is complete, full, partial, and incremental bitstream files are generated.

Title: Wind power installation with two rotors in tandem
Inventor: WOBBEN ALOYS
IPC: F03D9/25
Filed: 2000-11-14
Abstract: The invention concerns a wind power installation, in particular a large-scale wind power installation with an output power of more than two MW, preferably about five MW or more In accordance with the invention, for a large-scale wind power installation of that kind, there is proposed a rotor design and the configuration of corresponding rotor blades, so that reliable operation of such a wind power installation is possible.      While such a rotor blade which is optimised for a maximum degree of efficiency is good to produce for relatively small installations and can also be transported without any problem, such a rotor blade design suffers from two disadvantages. Firstly, the very large area of the rotor blade at the rotor blade root gives rise to very high loads when high wind speeds are involved. The wind power installation is usually then already shut down. However, the entire wind power installation has to be designed (dimensioned) for those very high loads. The second disadvantage lies in production of a rotor blade involving a very great blade depth.      The object of the invention is to eliminate the above-indicated problems and to simplify the production of a wind power installation and the operation thereof.      A wind power installation comprising at least two rotors which are arranged one behind the other and of which the first rotor which is arranged in front of the second rotor is of a smaller diameter than the second rotor.

Title: Gas turbine engine
Inventor: KAWARADA SATOSHI
IPC: F01D5/14
Filed: 2000-12-22
Abstract: A gas turbine engine has, in a cross section in the axial direction of an annular inner peripheral wall connected to a blade main body of a turbine blade, a concave part and a convex part on the front edge side and the rear edge side. The concave part has a negative curvature and is concave toward the axis, and the convex part has a positive curvature and is convex away from the axis. The flow rate on the upper face of the blade main body can be reduced in the concave part on the front edge side, thus suppressing generation of a shock wave, and the flow rate can be increased in the convex part on the rear edge side following the concave part, thus smoothly changing the flow rate on the upper face of the blade main body and thereby minimizing the pressure loss. In this way, the thickness of the blade main body can be reduced while ensuring the performance of the gas turbine engine, thereby contributing to a reduction in weight.

Inventor: ELTIS LINDSAY D
IPC: G01N33/68
Filed: 2002-10-02
Abstract: Biological selection systems of the invention provide methods for selecting a pathway modulating protein that produces a desired target moiety that acts as a transcriptional effector. The system includes a library of expressible coding sequences where each expressible coding sequence encodes a variant of the pathway modulating protein, such that the variants of the pathway modulating protein differ in their ability to produce the target moiety. The system further comprises a host expression system for expressing the library of expressible coding sequences, wherein each host expression system expresses a coding sequence from the library.  Each host expression system includes a viability modulating promoter, wherein expression mediated by the viability modulating promoter determines the survival of the host expression system. Each host expression system also includes an expressed target-moiety-responsive transcription factor, wherein the transcription factor is capable of mediating expression by the viability modulating promoter. The transcription factor responds to binding the target moiety by mediating expression at the viability modulating promoter. Host systems expressing a selected pathway modulating protein so as to produce the desired target moiety may thereby be selected based on host viability.

Title: Method and apparatus for reducing contamination of an electrical signal
Inventor: COHEN MARK S
IPC: G06F17/00
Filed: 2001-08-15
Abstract: The method of reducing contamination of electrical signals recorded in the presence of repeated interference contamination comprises obtaining an electrical signal recorded in the presence of a contaminating signal, and detecting a timing signal that occurs at a fixed time point during the electrical signal relative to the onset of the contaminating signal. The electrical signal is digitized, wherein the digitizing begins with the timing signal. A plurality of digitized electrical signals is analyzed, wherein the electrical signals are synchronized with respect to the timing signal, to obtain an estimated contaminating signal that is subtracted from the digitized electrical signal. This method can be used with electrophysiological signals, such as EEG, ECG, EMG and galvanic skin response, and for elimination of noise associated with concurrently used methods such as MRI. The method of noise reduction is applicable to recordings of other electrical signals, including audio recordings.

Abstract: A reference table has columns associated with data attributes and rows containing related words assigned to those attributes in a collection of data, those words coming from different data tables having independent numbers of records. The stored data include word thesauruses associated with the attributes, and reference table row identifier lists respectively associated with thesaurus entries. Each word thesaurus associated with an attribute has a respective entry for each word assigned to this data attribute in the collection of data. The reference table, which may be a virtual table, defines a unified algebraic framework for the entries of all the thesauruses. Query criteria can be examined with reference to the relevant thesauruses to obtain a row-ID list or bitmap vector which represents all the reference table rows matching the query criteria, if any. The results can then be delivered through the original data tables, or preferably, by means of the thesauruses.
