Abstract: A method and wireless communication system for transferring management information is shown in figure 1B below. The system includes at least one access point (AP) (110) including a first management entity (150) and a second management entity (155), and at least one wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) (105) including a third management entity (165) and a fourth management entity (170). The AP transmits a management information base (MIB) information request action frame including a category field and an action details field to the WTRU. In response to receiving the information request action frame, the WTRU determines whether or not to provide management information to the AP.  When the WTRU provides management information to the AP, the WTRU compiles management information stored in a MIB located in the WTRU and transmits a MIB  information report action frame to the AP.

Title: System and method for improved transmission of meter data
Inventor: BRIAN BRENT R
IPC: G08C15/06
Filed: 2005-04-22
Granted: 2010-07-20
Abstract: The system includes a number of first meters, which are typically battery powered transmit only devices. The system includes a number of two-way meters, which are operable to both transmit and receive data. The first meters transmit their data to the collector either directly or indirectly via the two-way meters, which serve as intermediaries. Multiple records from each first meter may be stored at each of the two-way meters, thereby ensuring that records from a one-way meter will not be blocked when an attempt is made to forward them to the collector. Furthermore, multiple records from each first meter may be stored at the collector, thereby enabling the transmission and storage of meter records in a number of different formats. Additionally, records from each first meter are marked to reflect a sequence in which they are generated, thereby ensuring that the collector will store the most recent data records available.

Abstract: The present inventors have a devised one or more novel methods, systems, and interfaces for facilitating multi-lingual searches. One exemplary method entails creating multiple language-specific indices for a collection of documents, with each index including stemmed and non-stemmed versions of terms from the documents. Users submit queries that are associated with a set of one or more target languages. Query processing entails translating original and stemmed versions of each term in a query into each of the target languages, using one or more techniques that each yield a set of potentially equivalent query terms. Each set of potentially equivalent query terms is then processed against the corresponding language-specific index, using a conventional monolingual search technique, such as a Boolean or natural language query, to identify documents from the collection. The resultant documents are presented to the user in language groupings or by computed relevance.

Abstract: A method is provided for obtaining .beta.-casein from skim milk. Purification of .beta.-casein from milk is achieved through a process of microfiltration using cross-flow polymeric microfiltration membranes. Cooling of the milk prior to microfiltration results in improved separation of .beta.-casein from the other milk serum proteins. Further filtration and demineralization of the microfiltered permeate results in enrichment of the fraction containing soluble .beta.-casein. An integrated scheme that allows a dairy plant to continuously separate and purify .beta.-casein is provided. Also provided is a method for obtaining cheese with improved meltability and reduced bitterness.
