Abstract: The converter comprises at least a first set of N=64 first current cells (CC) coupled in parallel between lines (L+,L-) of a differential current bus. Each first current cell comprises a current source (ICC) to supply a first additional current (64xIref) to the current bus under control of first comparator circuits (COMP1+,COMP1-). The first comparator circuits of the current cells are coupled in cascade and activated step-by-step one after each other.  In a preferred embodiment, the converter (ADC) further includes one or more second set of N second current cells (FC) also coupled in parallel between the lines (L+,L-) of the differential current bus and similar to the first current cells. The second cells however include an amplifier (AMP2+,AMP2-) with a gain N coupled between the lines and second comparator circuits (COMP2+,COMP2-), and have a second current source (IFC) to supply a second additional current (Iref) to the current bus under control of the second comparator means. Moreover, the second current cells are activated (F2) after the operation of the first current cells of the first set is completed. The amount of hardware is thereby reduced, e.g. by factor of 2<5>, as well as the cost owing to a smaller silicon area on the chip.  <IMAGE>

Abstract: Recombinant adenoviruses provide a versatile system for gene expression studies and therapeutic applications. This invention describes a strategy which simplifies the generation and production of such viruses. A recombinant adenoviral plasmid is generated with a minimum of enzymatic manipulations, employing homologous recombination in bacteria rather than in eucaryotic cells. Following transfections of such plasmids into a mammalian packaging cell line, viral production can be conveniently followed with the aid of green fluorescent protein, encoded by a gene incorporated into the viral backbone. Homogeneous viruses can be obtained from this procedure without plaque purification. This system expedites the process of generating and testing recombinant adenoviruses.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an apparatus and method for secure information processing. In particular, the present invention relates to an apparatus for and a method of providing secure encryption of sensitive information, often information related to money transactions, which must be kept secret. It has recently been found that monitoring the power supply leads and/or input/output ports of e.g. a microprocessor or a chip-card processor performing information encryption in an apparatus may reveal the security sensitive information. According to the present invention, a cost-effective and fast solution to this problem has been found. The solution utilises secondary power storing means that may be encapsulated together with the microprocessor so as to prevent unauthorised access to the processor's power supply leads. This encapsulated power supply is capable of supplying power to the microprocessor during security critical phases of an encryption program running on the microprocessor. Accordingly, external power leads or wires that normally feed power from a primary power supply to the microprocessor may be disconnected by a switching device during these security critical phases and power may instead be supplied from the encapsulated secondary power storing means, thereby monitoring the primary power supply leads will not reveal information about the sensitive information to be encrypted.

Abstract: The invention concerns an electrical energy transmission installation for the transmission of electrical energy from a generator producing a first AC voltage by way of a transmission line into an electrical AC voltage network, comprising a circuit arrangement which converts the first AC voltage produced by the generator into a first DC voltage and feeds it into the transmission line, and a first inverter which is connected to the output of the transmission line and converts the first DC voltage into a second AC voltage and feeds it into the AC voltage network. The particularity of the invention is that the circuit arrangement has a current converter circuit which converts the first AC voltage produced by the generator into a third AC voltage, a first transformer which converts the third AC voltage into a fourth AC voltage, and a first rectifier which converts the fourth AC voltage into the first DC voltage.

Abstract: Disclosed are the surprising discoveries that aminophospholipids, such as phosphatidylserine and phosphatidylethanolamine, are stable and specific markers accessible on the luminal surface of tumor blood vessels, and that the administration of an anti-aminophospholipid antibody alone is sufficient to induce thrombosis, tumor necrosis and tumor regression in vivo. This invention therefore provides anti-aminophospholipid antibody-based methods and compositions for use in the specific destruction of tumor blood vessels and in the treatment of solid tumors. Although various antibody conjugates and combinations are thus provided, the use of naked, or unconjugated, anti-phosphatidylserine antibodies is a particularly important aspect of the invention, due to simplicity and effectiveness of the approach.

Abstract: A transmission utilizes oscillating torque to vary the mechanical power transmitted to a load. An arm assembly is rotatably coupled to a frame. At the ends of the arms are eccentric masses, rotatably coupled thereto. An input shaft rotates the masses about the ends of the arms. The rotating masses produce an oscillating torque that causes the arms to oscillate. The arms are coupled to an output assembly. The output assembly utilizes one way clutches, with one clutch reversed relative to the other clutch. The one way clutches convert the bidirectional rotation of the arms to unidirectional rotation for the load. The output speeds of the transmission are controlled by providing at least two side by side rotatable masses and varying the phase of one of the masses relative to the other mass. Varying the phase changes the center of gravity of the masses, thereby affecting the torque applied to the arms.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un procédé permettant le déplacement d'utilisateurs entre des tranches de temps ou des stations de base dans le but d'utiliser au mieux les ressources de puissance de sortie d'un amplificateur de puissance à porteuses multiples (MCPA). Selon un mode de réalisation de la présente invention, donné à titre d'exemple, on compare la puissance de tous les émetteurs-récepteurs desservis par un amplificateur MCPA donné à une valeur de seuil X. Cette valeur de seuil X est associée, au moins, à la capacité de l'amplificateur MCPA en termes de puissance de sortie. Si, quel que soit le moment (c'est-à-dire pour toutes les tranches de temps), la somme de la puissance de sortie est supérieure à la valeur de seuil X, on considère que l'amplificateur MCPA peut traiter toutes les transmissions simultanées. Si, pour une tranche de temps au moins, il se trouve que la puissance de sortie requise soit supérieure à la capacité de l'amplificateur MCPA de desserte, un algorithme de répartition de charge ou de réaffectation est appelé. Cet algorithme de réaffectation recherche des tranches de temps permettant la réalisation d'une réaffectation au sein même de la station de base ou parmi les émetteurs-récepteurs desservis par l'amplificateur MCPA. Si aucune tranche de temps ne peut prendre en charge les utilisateurs issus de la tranche de temps pour laquelle la limite de l'amplificateur MCPA est dépassée, l'algorithme de répartition de charge est activé, et l'on recherche des ressources de transmission au niveau des émetteurs-récepteurs desservis par d'autres amplificateurs MCPA, notamment par d'autres cellules. Il existe un certain nombre d'autres modes de réalisation de l'invention, qui concernent le mode de réaffectation ou de répartition de charge. La réaffectation ou le déplacement d'utilisateurs d'un type particulier, par exemple les utilisateurs d'une seule tranche, ainsi que le non-déplacement des utilisateurs d'autres types, permettent une répartition de charge et une réaffectation encore meilleures.
