Granted: 2007-02-13
Abstract: Un prolongateur de bus destiné à prolonger des bus synchrones d'une longueur limitée permet un accès pratique à des cartes à bus dans des systèmes ATE. Le prolongateur de bus se branche sur un bus synchrone, par exemple, un bus PCI, un câble transporte les signaux de bus jusqu'à un point distant, ou une carte distante est contactée. Le prolongateur de bus permet des modes à la fois initiateur (maître) et cible (esclave) de la carte distante, et il communique avec la carte distante dans le protocole natif du bus. Le prolongateur de bus fonctionne sans nécessité de commande séparée du bus. Par exemple, le prolongateur de bus ne nécessite pas d'avoir son propre pilote de périphérique. Le prolongateur de bus comprend un circuit fureteur de bus contrôlant les transactions de bus avec la carte distante et stockant les données de configuration. Le circuit fureteur de bus répond localement, au nom de la carte distante, aux demandes de bus nécessitant des réponses rapides. Le prolongateur de bus comprend également un automate fini copiant les données de configuration mémorisées sur la carte distante afin de remettre à l'état initial la carte distante sans nécessiter de remise à l'état initial du bus. Un circuit de maintien est également compris dans le prolongateur de bus, lequel détermine un intervalle de maintien nécessaire à l'établissement de signaux de retour à partir de la carte distante. Le circuit de maintien reçoit les signaux de retour, il les applique au bus après écoulement de l'intervalle de maintien.

Title: Messaging and promotion for digital audio media players
Inventor: COHEN MARK S
IPC: G06Q30/02
Filed: 2001-06-08
Granted: 2010-08-24
Abstract: Messaging, such as promotional messaging, is delivered to users of digital audio media players, such as digital disc (40) and tape players. Portable players are especially suited for practice of the invention. Players include a wireless receiver (38) to receive messages and memory for storage of messages. Alternatively, player memory is pre-loaded with messages. A controller plays messages at reasonable times, e.g., at breaks between tracks of the audio disc or tape being played. Advertising or promotional messages are broadcast to capable digital audio players via wireless transmission and stored in memory. The player reads control information on the disc and stores it in memory. The control information is used to play messages from memory. An effective promotion method is enabled through the invention and use of a player capable of message reception, storage and play in accordance with the invention. A promoter can arrange for the distribution of players, for free or at a reduced cost. An event, e.g., a festival or concert, provides a preferred circumstance to target a particular group of recipients of promotional or advertising messages. Promotional messaging that preferably comprises advertising is then broadcast to the distributed players, which store and play messages between tracks.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un système de distribution et un dispositif de revêtement de vaisseaux sanguins. Un stent est fixé à une extrémité distale d'un revêtement tubulaire constitué de matériau biocompatible chargé dans une pointe atraumatique creuse. Un arbre semi-rigide relie la pointe atraumatique à un dispositif d'obturation, et traverse le centre dudit revêtement tubulaire. Un embout coulissant est fixé à l'extrémité proximale de ce revêtement tubulaire. Un ballonnet en communication fluidique avec l'arbre est, éventuellement, placé à proximité du stent. Le dispositif assemblé est introduit dans un vaisseau sanguin au moyen d'une procédure d'endartérectomie ou d'athérectomie. La pointe atraumatique est distribuée au niveau d'un emplacement prédéterminé, et lorsqu'elle atteint sa destination le stent libère ladite pointe qui s'étend contre la paroi du vaisseau. Lorsqu'on utilise un ballonnet, on le gonfle de telle sorte que le stent est complètement déployé dans le vaisseau. Ledit ballonnet est ensuite dégonflé, et la pointe et l'arbre traversent complètement le stent et le revêtement tubulaire déployés. L'embout coulissant est séparé du revêtement tubulaire et l'anastomose proximale exécutée.
