Title: Dispositifs et procédés de programmation d'écoulement de fluide utilisant des microstructures séquencées
Inventor: DI CARLO DINO
IPC: B01J19/00
Filed: 2012-09-27
Abstract: La présente invention porte sur une plateforme microfluidique qui utilise des obstacles placés à une ou des positions particulières dans la section transversale de canal pour faire tourner et étirer un fluide. Le comportement d'écoulement asymétrique en amont et en aval du ou des obstacles en raison de l'inertie de fluide se manifeste sous la forme d'une déformation totale de la topologie de lignes de courant qui crée de manière efficace un écoulement secondaire de réseau accordable. Le système et les procédés créent de manière passive des écoulements secondaires forts à des débits modérés à élevés dans des microcanaux. Ces écoulements peuvent être commandés de manière précise par les nombres et le placement géométrique particulier du ou des obstacles dans le canal.

Abstract: A method of reducing the power consumption of an input device includes operating the input device at a first power level, detecting the presence of a touch object on a touch surface of the input device, determining that the presence of the touch object on the touch surface is static for a predetermined period of time, operating the input device at a second power level, maintaining the input device at the second power level, determining that the presence of the touch object on the touch surface is not static, and operating the input device at the first power level. In some cases, the touch object is a finger. The touch object is static if the touch object's position on the touch surface remains within a predetermined region, where the predetermined region is an area centered around the presence of the touch object on the touch surface.

Abstract: In adaptive modulation and coding scheme (MCS) selection for directional antenna systems, at least one table is defined that maps different ranges of signal quality values to different sets of MCS parameters. In some implementations, each range corresponds to a separate table (e.g., a given table will include the MCS and other information for that range of signal quality values). In the event an abrupt change in signal quality is detected (e.g., a change in received signal strength greater than or equal to a defined threshold), instead of using a conventional rate selection algorithm, a new MCS is selected through the use of the ranges from the table(s). In this way, a relatively large change in MCS may be accommodated, if warranted by the change in signal quality.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for synchronizing operational data records in a manner that reduces redundant copying of data. A set of operational data records is stored, wherein each data record is assigned a unique ID in ascending order based on a creation time of the data record. A highest unique ID is identified from the operational data records in the set of operational data records. A tolerance number is identified that is indicative of a range of unique IDs that can be processed at a same time such that it cannot be guaranteed that that operational data records with unique IDs separated by less than the tolerance number were assigned unique IDs in the order that the operational data records were created. A synchronization ID is calculated comprising subtracting the tolerance number from the highest unique ID. The synchronization ID is transmitted to the source operational data store.

Abstract: A bus communication transceiver measures a delay time in response to a rising time of a signal and and adjusts a falling waveform of the same signal based on the measurement result. A signal waveform, especially, a duty ratio can be adjusted in a predetermined standard range. Also, the bus communication transceiver realizes an excellent real-time operation, without receiving influence of a variation of the voltage supplied to the bus, and a variation of a total of loads connected with the bus. The bus communication transceiver measures the delay time by using the signal and adjusts the waveform of the signal.
