Abstract: PCT No. PCT/EP97/05913 Sec. 371 Date Apr. 19, 1999 Sec. 102(e) Date Apr. 19, 1999 PCT Filed Oct. 17, 1997 PCT Pub. No. WO98/19097 PCT Pub. Date May 7, 1998A valve fitting comprises a female element and a male element. The elements are composed of fixed parts and axially sliding parts that, when at rest, arrange themselves in a closing position of a passage opening for fluid and in occurrence of the coupling between the two elements are displaced by their engagement with corresponding parts of the other element to an opening position of the passage opening. The male element includes a safety valve to intercept a fluid feed substantially at the end of the coupling manoeuvre of the two fitting elements.

Abstract: L'invention porte sur des transconducteurs hybrides et leur procédé d'hybridation consistant à relier et exploiter en parallèle une paire différentielle dégénérée avec une paire multitan. L'appairage correct de la paire différentielle dégénérée et de la technique multitan permet d'obtenir de plus hauts niveaux de linéarité qu'avec chacune des approches individuelles. L'hybride bénéficie par ailleurs de dispersions de fabrication plus faibles qu'avec les solutions multitan antérieures. L'invention permet d'atteindre dans des conditions adaptées à la fabrication un gain plus élevé, une meilleure linéarité, un bruit moindre et un courant d'alimentation moindre.

Abstract: Cette invention a trait à un procédé d'évaluation comparative de concentrations en séquences spécifiques nucléotidiques dans des échantillons provenant de diverses sources. Elle concerne, plus particulièrement, un procédé faisant intervenir des oligonucléotides liés de manière covalente à un support solide, des billes par exemple, afin d'isoler des séquences spécifiques nucléotidiques marquées dans des mélanges complexes. Les procédés de l'invention permettent d'effectuer des comparaisons quantitatives de la concentration en acide nucléique d'une séquence définie dans une pluralité d'échantillons différents d'acide nucléique, provenant, par exemple, de cellules ou de tissus différents ou de banques génétiques. Les acides nucléiques provenant des échantillons sont marqués de manière que les signaux puissent être différenciés et comparés après hybridation aux oligonucléotides se trouvant sur les billes. Il est possible, au titre de cette invention, de prélever les supports solides porteurs de l'acide nucléique hybride ainsi que d'éluer et d'analyser l'acide nucléique cible. Cette invention a trait, en outre, à un procédé permettant de marquer des clones individuels en provenance d'une banque génomique et ce, afin qu'ils puissent être identifiés uniquement et extraits par hybridation à des billes spécifiques.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé et un système permettant de recevoir des informations d'entrées provenant de diverses sources d'informations, qu'elles soient interactives ou passives, et de présenter ces informations de façon attrayante à un destinataire via une interface de présentation. Le système comporte un module d'arrière-plan' en interaction avec des sources d'informations interactives, qui est en réception avec des sources d'informations passives et qui détermine si les informations en provenance de ces sources sont susceptibles d'intéresser le destinataire, en donnant éventuellement la priorité à une source d'informations sur une autre. Le système comprend également un module 'd'avant-plan' qui, lorsqu'il est actif, prend en charge la présentation des informations au destinataire. L'arrière-plan est actif même lorsque le module d'avant-plan est inactif, et quand l'arrière-plan détecte de nouvelles informations pouvant intéresser le destinataire (par exemple, des informations dépassant une côte d'intérêt donnée ou répondant à un critère de sélection donné), il active l'avant-plan et invite le destinataire à sélectionner et visualiser ces nouvelles informations. La cote ou le critère peuvent s'adapter en réaction aux préférences du destinataire, qu'il les ait explicitement exprimées ou non, mais peuvent également être relativement fixes, comme dans le cas d'une heure déterminée de la journée.

Abstract: Process for the production of ethylbenzene by alkylation over a silicalite alkylation
catalyst with the subsequent transalkylation of diethylbenzene with the alkylation catalyst and
conditions selected to retard xylene production and also heavies production. A feedstock
containing benzene and ethylene is applied to a multi-stage alkylation reaction zone having a
plurality of series-connected catalyst beds containing a pentasil molecular sieve alkylation
catalyst which is silicalite of a predominantly monoclinic symmetry having a silica/alumina ratio
of at least 275. The feedstock is supplied to the alkylation reaction zone to cause gas-phase
ethylation of benzene at a flow rate to provide a space velocity of benzene over the catalyst to
produce a xylene concentration in the product of about 600 ppm or less based upon the
ethylbenzene content. Periodically the space velocity may be increased to a value which is
greater than the space velocity associated with a minimum concentration of diethylbenzene in
the alkylation product such that diethylbenzene production is enhanced while minimizing any
attendant transalkylation reactions within the alkylation reaction zone. This is accompanied by
a relatively low xylene content in the product, specifically no more than 600 ppm based upon
the ethylbenzene in the product. The output from the alkylation reactor is applied to an
intermediate recovery zone for the separation and recovery of ethylbenzene with the recovery
of a polyalkylated aromatic component which is supplied along with benzene to a transalkylation
reaction zone where the polyalkylated aromatic fraction is subject to disproportionation to
provide a reduced diethylbenzene content and an enhanced ethylbenzene content. A specific
monoclinic silicalite alkylation catalyst has a silica/alumina ratio of at least 300 and has a crystal
size of less than one micron.

Abstract: L'invention porte sur un système et un procédé d'entretien automatique d'un système d'ordinateurs et sur un programmateur activant périodiquement des capteurs qui, une fois activés, recueillent des informations sur différentes fonctions du système. Les capteurs enregistrent lesdites informations dans une base de connaissances qui contient par ailleurs des cas d'espèce, des questions et des actions. Les cas d'espèce décrivent les problèmes potentiels des ordinateurs et leurs solutions, les questions servent à diagnostiquer les problèmes, et les actions décrivent les mesures à prendre pour résoudre les problèmes diagnostiqués. Si les informations recueillies par les capteurs indiquent un problème, lesdits capteurs activent un automate doté d'intelligence artificielle qui utilise les informations de la base de connaissances pour évaluer certains cas. Si les informations nécessaires à l'évaluation ne figurent pas dans la base de connaissances, l'automate active un capteur pour les recueillir. Les cas une fois évalués permettent d'accroître le niveau de confiance d'autres cas, questions et actions. Lorsque le niveau de confiance d'un cas ou d'une question dépasse un seuil prédéterminé, l'automate procède alors à leur évaluation. Lorsque le niveau de confiance d'une action dépasse le seuil, l'action représente la solution probable du problème, et l'automate active un capteur pour commander l'action. Si ni le cas, ni la question, ni l'action ne dépassent le seuil, c'est que la base de connaissances ne contient pas d'informations suffisantes pour résoudre le problème; l'automate fige alors l'état du système d'ordinateur et la base de connaissances pour permettre à un technicien d'actualiser la base de connaissances avec les connaissances nécessaires à la solution du problème.
