Patent EP-1216076-A2 (EP)
Inventor: DISSING STEEN
IPC: A61N2/04
Filed: 2000-08-28
Abstract: A method for stimulating growth in biological tissue or sprouts, an apparatus and a use thereof. The apparatus comprises of a pulse generator and a plurality of coils in which pulsed currents will cause fluctuating magnetic fields in a predetermined region holding the material to be stimulated. The fluctuating magnetic fields will induce an electric field in the material. An enhanced effect has been detected in the regions where the electric fields are largest. The coils comprise a number of pairs of coils having, during a given pulse, magnetic fields in opposite directions in order to provide field gradients in the cells, micro organisms or tissue. Selecting a suitable number, size and positioning of coils will provide a homogeneous electric field in the predetermined region, which does not have any undesirable peaked maxima. When four or more coils are used, they can be combined in pairs arranged on opposite sides of the predetermined region, and with the adjacent coils conducting current in opposite directions and the opposing coils conducting currents in the same direction. Thereby the induced electridal fields add constructively inside the regions between the pairs of coils. In an apparatus for stimulating cell proliferation and differentiation, it is a desired feature that the generated fluctuations in the magnetic fields does not elicit action potentials of living cells since this will cause great inconvenience for the patient.

Abstract: To provide a centralized control system for
defending and taking countermeasures against an illegal
access. A network device 3 detects an illegal access
packet P1 transmitted from an illegal accessor's terminal
6, and transfers an encapsulated packet P2 of the illegal
access packet P1 to a data center 1. A control system 11
in the data center 1 analyzes the packet P2, encapsulates
a response packet P4 from a decoy server 13 pretending to
be a response from a target server to be attacked 5 to
acquire a packet P3, and then transmits the packet P3 to
the network device 3. The network device 3 decapsulates
the packet P3 so as to extract a response packet P4, and
transmits the response packet P4 to the illegal accessor's
terminal 6. The illegal accessor's terminal 6, upon
