Abstract: Presented is a modular uninterruptible power supply system utilizing common power modules, and providing redundant coordinated control thereof. The system and method of the instant invention provides identical control logic within each of the individual power modules, thus dispensing with the requirement for a separate control module to control and coordinate the operating modes and parameters of the UPS system. A system is presented whereby a virtual master is established through an arbitration scheme at initialization of the UPS system. The master then assigns a virtual vice master to provide the redundant back up control should the virtual master no longer be able to perform its functions. Nearly simultaneous control of operational mode and state change functions is accomplished through a coordinated communications system including a high-speed communications bus and digital control logic lines. Also provided is a mechanism for removal of the virtual master from its duties upon the detection of a problem that is not detected by the virtual master itself.

Abstract: A method for producing a refolded, inactive form of recombinantly produced NS2/3 protease which comprises the steps of: a) purifying the protease from inclusion bodies in the presence of a chaotropic agent; and b) refolding the purified protease by contacting it with a reducing agent and lauryldiethylamine oxide (LDAO) in the presence of reduced concentration of chaotropic agent or polar additive. The invention further comprises a method for activating this refolded inactive NS2/3 protease by adding an activation detergent. This method produces large amounts of the active NS2/3 protease to allow small molecules and ligands to be screened as potential inhibitors of NS2/3 protease, which may be useful as therapeutic agents against HCV.

Abstract: Insoluble, denatured, heat-stable protein particles are used in food and beverage products. The particles are easily dispersible in aqueous solutions and take the form of substantially non-aggregated macro-colloids. In a hydrated state the preferred mean diameter particle size distribution of the insoluble, denatured, heat-stable particles ranges from about 0.1 microns to about 3.0 microns, with less than about 5 percent of the total number of particles exceeding about 3.0 microns in diameter. The majority of the particles are substantially spheroidal in shape and have a substantially smooth, emulsion-like organoleptic character similar to that of high-calorie fats and oils. Additionally, these particles have a degree of protein insolubility of at least about 80%, which provides processing advantages during heat treatment.

Abstract: A sliding-window multi-carrier communication system is described, wherein the carriers are orthogonal in a local sense, but not necessarily in a global sense. In one embodiment, the system allows a reduction of the length of the basis function time as compared to conventional OFDM systems. In some circumstances, the symbol time can be reduced almost to the basis function length even though the delay spread from channel-to-channel is significant. In one embodiment, a discrete Fourier transform DFT is used in the sliding-window receiver. In one embodiment, the DFT produces M outputs (one output for each of M channels) for each time-domain input. In one embodiment, the DFT produces outputs for M channels from N samples, where N is a basis function length. In one embodiment, the sliding-window receiver provides an adjustable basis-function length. In one embodiment, the basis-function length can be separately selected for each channel. In one embodiment, the sliding-window receiver provides independent equalization for each channel by extracting equalization information from a packet header.

Abstract: A printing device of the present invention has an additional function of switching over connection with two wireless networks. The printing device enters a user's wireless LAN based on first setting information, while establishing connection with a maker's wireless LAN based on second setting information to communicate with a printer, which is one of additional devices newly entering the user's wireless LAN. In response to a requirement from the printer, the printing device temporarily disconnects from the user's wireless LAN and enters the maker's wireless LAN to transmit setting information relating to the user's wireless LAN to the printer. This arrangement desirably relieves the labor of the user for settings in the additional devices to establish connection with the wireless network.   <IMAGE>

Abstract: A lanthanide is combined with a medium to be tested for endospores. The dipicolinic acid released from the endospores binds the lanthanides, which have distinctive emission (i.e., luminescence) spectra, and are detected using photoluminescence. The concentration of spores is determined by preparing a calibration curve generated from photoluminescence spectra of lanthanide complex mixed with spores of a known concentration. A lanthanide complex is used as the analysis reagent, and is comprised of lanthanide ions bound to multidentate ligands that increase the dipicolinic acid binding constant through a cooperative binding effect with respect to lanthanide chloride. The resulting combined effect of increasing the binding constant and eliminating coordinated water and multiple equilibria increase the sensitivity of the endospore assay by an estimated three to four orders of magnitude over prior art of endospore detection based on lanthanide luminescence.

Abstract: There is described a method of determining the amount of particulate accumulated in a particulate filter (9), based on determining possible variations in the spatial distribution and/or physical-chemical properties of the particulate as a function of engine operating conditions and past particulate accumulation in the particulate filter. More specifically, to begin with, there are determined and memorized in map form a number of reference values ( beta MAP) of a parameter ( beta ) defining a relationship between the amount of particulate (mS) accumulated in the particulate filter (9) and the pressure drop ( DELTA PDPF) across the particulate filter (9), each of the reference values ( beta MAP) relating to a respective steady engine operating condition in which particulate is accumulated in the particulate filter (9). In a given engine operating condition, an operating value ( beta MOD) of the parameter ( beta ) is then determined as a function of the reference value ( beta MAP) of the parameter ( beta ) relative to the same steady engine operating condition, and of past particulate accumulation in the particulate filter (9). And the operating value ( beta MOD) of the parameter ( beta ) is used to calculate the amount of particulate (mS) accumulated in the particulate filter (9). A final corrected value mS_CORR of particulate accumulated in the filter, calculated taking into account the effects of partial regenerations (e.g. NOx-based spontaneous regeneration) and prolonged vehicle disuse ("parking" effect), is used to activate regeneration of the filter. <IMAGE>
