Patent CA-2624369-A1 (CA)
Inventor: FEDYK DONALD
IPC: H04L69/14
Filed: 2006-10-13
Abstract: Ethernet provider backbone transport (PBT) paths are controlled utilizing Generalized Multi-protocol Label Switching (GMPLS) signaling protocol. A path between edge nodes is identified by a combination of a VID and destination MAC  address in a VID/MAC tuple populated in the forwarding tables of intermediary nodes. To establish the PBT path, a path calculation is performed from the originator node to the terminator node through the network. The originating node then sends a GMPLS label object with a suggested VID/MAC to identify the path to the terminator. The intermediary nodes or bridges forward the object to the terminating node. The terminating node then offers a VID/MAC tuple in a GMPLS label object in response. When the intermediary nodes forward the response from the terminating node to the originator, the appropriate forwarding labels are then installed in the forwarding tables of each node utilizing the associated VID/MAC tuples.

Title: Tumor tissue microarrays for rapid molecular profiling
Inventor: LEIGHTON STEPHEN B
IPC: G01N1/36
Filed: 1999-02-24
Abstract: An array-based technology facilitates rapid correlated gene copy number and expression profiling of a very large numbers of human tumors. Hundreds of cylindrical tissue biopsies (diameter 0.6 mm) from morphologically representative regions of individual tumors can be arrayed in a single paraffin block. Consecutive sections from such arrays provide targets for parrallel in situ visualization and quantitation of DNA, RNA or protein targets. For example, amplifications of six loci (mybL2, erbB2, Cyclin-D1, myc, 17q23 and 20q13) were rapidly determined by fluorescence in situ hybridization from 372 ethanol-fixed breast cancers. Stratification of tumors by estrogen receptor and p53 expression data revealed dictinct patterns of gene amplification in the various subgroups of breast cancer that may have prognostic utility. The tissue array technology is useful in the rapid molecular profiling of hundreds of normal and pathological tissue specimens or cultured cells.

Title: Method for completing a well using increased fluid temperature
Inventor: BANSAL R K
IPC: E21B21/06
Filed: 2005-08-04
Abstract: Methods for forming a portion of a wellbore are provided. The well is drilled from a first selected depth to a second selected depth to form a bore through a surrounding earth formation. A fluid heating apparatus is disposed within the bore on a working string. Fluid is then heated by moving the fluid through the fluid heating apparatus in the wellbore. The process of circulating fluid adjacent the earth formation serves to also heat the surrounding formation so as to increase the fracture gradient.  The fluid heating process may be conducted during a drilling procedure. Alternatively, the fluid heating process may be conducted in connection with a liner hanging and cementing process. A fluid flow restrictor is provided along a run-in assembly that serves to warm the fluids as they are circulated. The warm fluids provide convective heat to the surrounding earth formation, thereby reducing the formation's fracture gradient.
