Abstract: A system and method for improved client and server communications, more particularly, an improved protocol that may be used for communication between a client and a server, such as in an email environment. A request sent by an email client component may indicate no limit for the size of a response to the request, allowing an email server component to fill a buffer, if needed. The email client component sends a plurality of subrequests within a request, each of the subrequests requesting an operation at an email server component and including size information. In response to each subrequest, if the size information includes a size limit inside a range expected by the email server component, then the email server component limits a response to the size limit. If the size information includes a size limit outside a range expected by the email server component, then the email server component looks for a new size limit in the size information. The new size limit may be arbitrary, such as "fill the available buffer".

Abstract: Compounds of formula (I)in which R1, R2, R3, R4 and R5 are hydrogen atoms or chromogenic substituents and X is hydroxyl, OR6 wherein R6 is selected from the group consisting of C1-C4 alkyl, or O-Me+ wherein Me+ is a cation derived from an organic or inorganic base; these compounds do not exhibit significant fluorescence but are capable of being cleaved by phosphatidyl-inositol-specific phospholipase C, an enzyme which is indicative of bacterial activity; the umbelliferyl moity resulting from such cleavage is a strong fluorogen thus providing effective test methods for various pathogenic bacteria, such as Listeria, Staphylococcus and Clostridium species. Also disclosed are plating media for detection of microorganisms that are capable of metabolic generation of a phosphatidyl inositol-specific phospholipase C (PI-PLC). The plating medium can be in a dry, liquid, or semi-liquid form, depending upon its water content, and comprise at least one compound capable of forming an aqueous gel when in contact with water; at least one nutrient capable of supporting growth of said microorganism; and at least one indicator compound of formula I and/or IV, notably 4-methylumbelliferyl myo-inositol-1-phosphate or salts thereof and 5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indoxyl myo-inositol-1-phosphate or salts thereof. PI-PLC generated by the microorganisms of interest leads to cleavage of the indicator compounds causing formation of fluorescence and/or color suitable for identification of type and count of such hygienically and pathologically important microorganisms as Listeria species.

Abstract: A system for providing a dynamic multi-mode service acquisition capability to a subscriber station is provided. The subscriber station is capable of operating in two or more modes of operation. A time to scan condition is indicated while the subscriber station is operating in a current mode of operation having active and inactive states. Responsive thereto, the system stores state information for the current mode of operation, and attempts at least a partial acquisition of communications services in accordance with another mode of operation. The at least partial acquisition attempt is scheduled to be initiated while the subscriber station is operating in the inactive state in the current mode of operation, and completed before the subscriber station transitions back to the active state in the current mode of operation. If the acquisition attempt is successful, the subscriber station transitions to the new mode of operation, maintaining appropriate registration. If unsuccessful, the subscriber station uses the stored state information to resume operating in the current mode of operation.
