Title: Method, apparatus and system for separating eucaryotic or procaryotic cells or other biological material from a suspension
Inventor: ELSAYED AHMED ELSAYED
IPC: C12M3/00
Filed: 2004-05-10
Abstract: A method for separating eucaryotic or procaryotic cells or other particularly biological material which is sensitive against high shearing forces from a suspension is provided using at least one hydrocyclone with an inlet and an outlet. The outlet of the hydrocyclone is essentially opposite to the inlet and the interior space of the hydrocyclone converges towards the outlet. The suspension is delivered to the inlet of the hydrocyclone, and the suspension enriched with the cells is drained off from the outlet. The enriched suspension is then guided from or through the outlet by a flow means in such a way, that a minimum of shearing stresses occurs and the kinetic energy of the enriched suspension at the outlet of the hydrocyclone is reduced that the viability of the cell material is influenced at a minimum.

Title: Dual mode image engine
Inventor: PAGE HARRY
IPC: G06K7/10
Filed: 2005-11-01
Abstract: An image reader capable of operating in two modes for imaging a target is described. It includes an image sensor, a free-space objective lens system and an optically encoded lens system each adapted to direct light reflected from the target onto the image sensor, and a processor for processing signals from the image sensor. In one mode, the processor processes signals produced by light from the free-space objective lens system and in the other mode, the processor processes signals produced by light from the optically encoded lens system. To achieve this, the two lens systems may direct light to two different areas on the image sensor, or the lens systems may be selectively controlled to direct light from one or other of the systems onto the image sensor.

Title: Data source access editor and network data management method
Inventor: TURNBULL CHRISTOPHER JAMES MAR
IPC: H04L69/14
Filed: 2006-03-01
Abstract: A data source access editor and a network data management method are disclosed. The method is carried out in a network within which at least one data service element interacts with services. The network has data access layers, an administrator user interface and different platform data sources. The method includes the steps of: accepting administrator input through the user interface, processing the administrator input into executable instructions, and generating an abstraction of one of the platform data sources from the instructions. The abstraction defines a derivative of the one of the platform data sources that the data service element makes available to the services. The abstraction coordinates the data service element in effectuating operations on the one of the platform data sources, such that the operations generate data source responses communicated to the services in order for the services to be performed.

Patent CA-2543479-A1 (CA)
Inventor: STAUDER JURGEN
IPC: H04N1/60
Filed: 2004-10-29
Abstract: What is proposed is a method for the color correction of digital image data generated by spectral absorption of white light in color filters of a first representation means. Color film material, in particular, is taken into consideration as the first representation means. For this purpose, firstly the primary color values R, G, B of the image data on the color film are detected.  Said primary color values R, G, B are corrected in order to generate secondary color values R', G', B' which are related to a second representation means, for example a monitor. This correction involves taking account of the absorption of light in secondary densities of the colorants of the film material which form the color filters of the first representation means. For this purpose, a plurality' of absorption spectra are generated for different densities of the colorants. Finally, the spectral profile of the absorption spectra of the colorants influences the correction of the primary color values for generating the secondary color values. This follows the aim of achieving a maximum correspondence between the color representation with the first representation means and the color representation with the second representation means.

Title: Technique for transferring data over a packet switched network
Inventor: BLACK THOMAS E JR
IPC: H04L45/02
Filed: 2005-06-09
Abstract: A technique transfers data over a packet-switched network (PSN), comprising a plurality of intermediate nodes, in a manner that does not require that the intermediate nodes support a network layer infrastructure. A network controller coupled to the intermediate nodes acquires topology information associated with the PSN~s topology. This information may include pseudo-wire definitions, ingress and egress interface information, ingress and egress labels, and so on. The network controller generates a transport database from the topology information and distributes the transport database to the intermediate nodes. An intermediate node acquires the transport database information and configures a packet-processing engine (PPE), contained within the intermediate node, to process packets acquired by the intermediate node.
