Abstract: Système hautement automatisé et non restreignant permettant de constamment identifier, mesurer, surveiller et gérer, à des intervalles de temps sélectionnés, le comportement de consommation, l'inhalation de substances, le poids corporel et la croissance d'animaux individuels dans leur environnement de production habituel, y compris la répartition les parcours, les pâturages, les terrains d'élevage, les laiteries et les fermes sans déranger leur comportement habituel afin de déterminer, d'analyser, de modéliser et de prédire diverses conditions reliées à la santé, à la productivité, au rendement et à la qualité des animaux. Un transmetteur, généralement attaché à l'animal, identifie un individu grâce à un code unique. Un dispositif de pesée mesure le poids de l'animal alors que celui-ci consomme des substances. Une antenne reçoit le signal particulier du transmetteur et un appareil de transmission et de réception émet les signaux acquis vers un ordinateur et reçoit des instructions de ce dernier. Un ordinateur reçoit es signaux, et des modifications apportées à celui-ci génèrent un événement de mesure par intervalles du poids et de la croissance de l'animal, de son taux de croissance et de sa consommation de substances, ainsi que du comportement de l'animal qui influe sur les mesures. Un mécanisme d'identification visuel marque les bêtes que le système informatisé a désignées comme nécessitant une intervention. Le système modélise et prédit la santé et la croissance de l'animal, son rendement, les caractéristiques de sa carcasse, l'utilisation de nourriture, de fumier et de production de méthane.

Title: Technique for configuring data synchronization
Inventor: RICHARDSON STEVEN W
IPC: H04L29/08
Filed: 2004-11-02
Abstract: In configuring data synchronization between two devices, the first device generates a user configuration interface to be presented on the second device.  The user interface elicits information from a user regarding a personal information manager (PIM) that is installed on the second device. This information is transmitted to the first device, which downloads to the second device a synchronization application package based on the PIM. The user interface installs the synchronization application on the second device, obtains information regarding data to be synchronized, and transmits that information to the synchronization application. This information may include names and locations of folders to be synchronized and synchronization preferences such as synchronization direction and schedule. The devices may include servers, PCs, PDAs, handheld computers, and wireless phones. The server may be network-based, accessible via the Internet, a LAN, or the PSTN. Alternatively, the connection between the devices may be local or dedicated, and wired or wireless.

IPC: A61P25/16
Filed: 2003-05-28
Abstract: A method of inhibiting the secretion of IL-8 and other pro-inflammatory cytokines from cells secreting elevated levels of these compounds is provided.  The method includes contacting the cell with a composition comprising a cardiac glycoside such as oleandrin. The cardiac glycoside can be used to treat cystic fibrosis and other IL-8 dependent disorders by lowering levels of spontaneously secreted IL-8 and other pro-inflammatory cytokines. Oleandrin was found to suppress the secretion of IL-8 from cultured CF lung epithelial cells in the nanomolar concentration range. Structure-activity relationships (SARs) for cardiac glycosides are also elucidated.

Abstract: A system and method for providing the layout of non-Manhattan shaped integrated circuit elements using a Manhattan layout system utilizes a plurality of minimal sized polygons (e.g., rectangles) to fit within the boundaries of the non-Manhattan element. The rectangles are fit such that at least one vertex of each rectangle coincides with a grid point on the Manhattan layout system. Preferably, the rectangles are defined by using the spacing being adjacent grid points as the height of each rectangle. As the distance between adjacent grid points decreases, the layout better matches the actual shape of the non-Manhattan element. The system and method then allows for electrical and optical circuit elements to be laid out simultaneously, using the same layout software and equipment.

Title: Tarnish inhibiting composition and article containing it
Inventor: LYUBLINSKI EFIM YA
IPC: C08K5/13
Filed: 2004-05-14
Abstract: An effective tarnish inhibiting ("TI") polymer composition including a scavenger for hydrogen sulfide optionally in the presence of an acid gas such as sulfur dioxide, provides excellent protection against tarnishing of the lustrous surfaces of a silver object. When the composition is thermoformed into a box-like container or extruded as film which contains uniformly dispersed solid micron-sized particles of the scavenger chosen from zinc oxide and a silicate of an alkali metal in an amount no greater than 5% by weight of the polymer, it is transparent so that the condition of the stored silver may be assessed. A solid inert adjuvant may be added. All solid particles in the material have a primary particle size smaller than 53 ~m which makes it possible to obtain the uniform dispersion. A silver object may be wrapped in the film, or stored in a sealed box so that the solid particles in the polymer are not coated on the surfaces of the silver object.
