Title: Communications network
Inventor: TURNER ROBERT CHARLES
IPC: G06F13/00
Filed: 1986-07-16
Abstract: A network for carrying real-time (RTS) and data services comprises stations (12) on a ring (11). Frames on the ring have a fixed boundary (15) between a real-time portion of the frame and a data portion. A sequence of cycles is initiated by a priority station. During a refresh cycle a bit map on the ring is marked by each station in turn to indicate which slots in the real-time portions are occupied. Next the stations bid for slots needed for new calls. During a third cycle information transfer for RTS calls takes place. After these cycles, priority is passed to the next station. The data portion may use a slotted ring or token ring data control protocol, and data transfer proceeds during RTS cycles. In an alternative version the boundary (15') may be relocated periodically depending on the level of real-time traffic.

Patent AU-6939196-A (AU)
Title: Combined ligand and receptor display
Inventor: MALMBORG ANKI
IPC: C12N1/21
Filed: 1996-09-13
Abstract: A method for selecting nucleic acid sequences encoding ligand and receptor molecules capable of specific binding to each other is disclosed in which nucleic acid encoding ligand or receptor molecules is expressed in a host microorganism in combination with a surface molecule, such as E. coli pili, so that the ligand or receptor are displayed on the surface of the host microorganism. A replicable genetic unit, such as a filamentous bacteriophage, is used to display candidate binding partners to the ligand or receptor, with the binding of the ligand or receptor to the candidate binding partner mediating the transfer of nucleic acid from the replicable genetic unit to the microorganism. The method can be highly selective as the host microorganism is modified so that it does not display the surface molecule other than as a fusion with the ligand receptor molecule. The method is rapid and simple and opens up new applications based on the detection of ligand and receptors where both are unknown.
