Abstract: In an arrangement that employs a push-pull paradigm, information that is to be
communicated to clients is broadcast, or multicast, to cache servers, wherein the
information is cached in preparation for its being pulled by clients. By pushing
information to points close to the clients, both source overload and network overload are
avoided. The pushed information in the disclosed approach is transmitted over Internet
links, or over other communication channels, such as cable and radio systems. In
operation, clients subscribe to specific services of the provider, an association is
established between the subscribing client and a cache server, and the server informs the
network that it should be included among the destinations to which information from the
provider is transmitted. when information is subsequently transmitted by the provider
and received by the cache servers, it is stored in the cache server in preparation for its
being pulled by the clients, as desired and when desired.

IPC: G11B21/21
Filed: 1999-02-10
Abstract: A suspension assembly for use in a disk drive comprising a load beam, a gimbal, and a read/write head that is designed to make the suspension assembly more resistant to shock and vibration. The load beam comprises a load beam window that cooperates with an extended tab portion on the end of the gimbal to reduce vertical movement of the gimbal and head assembly. The clearance between the extended tab portion and the load beam window acts to limit the movement of the flexure during a shock event, such as may occur during the head loading and unloading process. In this manner, the heads, which are attached to the flexures, cannot impact one another or any other component outside the range allowed by the load beam window. In addition, the load beam has an accommodation space(s) therein that function in cooperation with a flexible bridge portion(s) of the gimbal to allow the head and gimbal assemblies to flex or rotate in response to forces acting on the suspension assembly thereby accommodating the full free motion of the flexure and the affixed heads. Finally, the load beam side rails have been extended to help stiffen the tip of the suspension and to decrease the movement of the heads due to vibration and also to help protect the heads from damage during handling.

Abstract: A method of screening for fetal Down's syndrome is described. Screening marker levels are measured. These may be measurements of a biochemical marker in a maternal sample or measurements of a marker from an ultrasound scan. The marker levels are used to calculate a risk of Down's syndrome. Instead of using markers from a single stage of pregnancy, the method uses markers from two or more different stages of pregnancy, typically one being in the first and another being in second trimester. The method may be automated.

IPC: F04C14/24
Filed: 1999-07-01
Abstract: When the control unit feedback-controls the DC brushless motor of the roller
pump 5 to be driven for transferring the liquid in the flexible tube by using the
pulse number of the encoder pulse from the encoder unit, the pulse number of the
4-multiplied encoder pulse, which is obtained by multiplying the pulse number of
the encoder pulse by 4 by means of the frequency 4-multiplying circuit, is counted
by means of the pulse counter. 
     Therefore, since the encoder unit can multiply the pulse number of the encoder
pulse which corresponds to the rotation of the output shaft of the DC brushless
motor, the liquid in the flexible tube can be transferred with high constantivity even
if the light-passing portion and the light-interrupting portion of the first and second
encoding patterns can not been increased due to structural limitation. That is,
since the resolution of the liquid flow rate to be detected with the encoder pulse to
be output by the encoder unit is enhanced, the number of rotation of the output
shaft of the DC brushless motor can be detected with sufficiently high resolution
even if the rotation speed of the output shaft of the DC brushless motor are lowered.

Abstract: A dynamic transaction network having a management station, a terminal, and a database. In response to a transaction request from a caller, the terminal accesses information stored in the database via transportable logic. The transportable logic derives the location of relevant information in the database array from input characteristic(s) of the transaction request. The transportable logic stored in the terminal is updated with transportable logic stored in the management station if the terminal determines that there is a difference between its transportable logic and the management station's transportable logic. Some differences may include a change in the number of databases on the network, a change in the number of terminals on the network, or a change in the location of the information stored on the database.

Le polymère intermédiaire W-Poly-OH est d'abord modifié par la modification du groupe OH donnant un premier groupe fonctionnel X, à la suite de quoi la suppression du W permet de produire un deuxième groupe hydroxyle. Ce dernier hydroxyle peut alors être converti en un deuxième groupe fonctionnel Y, ce qui donne le dérivé hétérobifonctionnel attendu.

Abstract: A process and system for continuous assay (160) and removal of toxins (410) from tobacco. Products such as tobacco contaminated with mycotoxins, particularly aflatoxins, and benzpyrene and its precursors, are subjected to treatment, generally in a solvent medium, to decontaminate the tobacco of the toxin. Continuous monitoring (160) of all harmful toxins eluted from the cleaning solvent (150) is performed by immunoantibody ultraviolet fluorescence, for example. A quality-control process ensures removal of harmful toxins from tobacco before further processing. Decontamination of extracted solvent streams and re-additives ensures safe reuse or disposal of the solvents and re-additives.
