Inventor: SHIVER JOHN W
IPC: C12N15/00
Filed: 1997-02-18
Abstract: La présente invention, qui concerne des molécules synthétiques d'ADN codant pour des gènes du VIH, concerne également des modifications des gènes du VIH. Les codons des molécules synthétiques utilisent les codons que préfère la cellule hôte cible. Du fait de la neutralisation d'anticorps et de l'immunité acquise grâce aux cellules, ces molécules synthétiques peuvent constituer un vaccin polynucléotidique immunoprophylactiquement efficace contre l'infection par le VIH.

Abstract: La transmission protégée de données est assurée entre plusieurs systèmes informatiques par un système de communication public, tel qu'Internet. La transmission protégée de données est assurée depuis un système informatique client à un système informatique marchand, et pour une transmission protégée accrue des informations de paiement concernant un instrument de paiement, depuis un système informatique marchand à un système informatique de passerelle de paiement. Ledit système de passerelle de paiement évalue les informations de paiement et renvoie au marchand un niveau d'autorisation de crédit par une transmission protégée, qui est ensuite communiqué au client par le vendeur. Le marchand peut ensuite décider d'accepter l'instrument de paiement proposé ou de refuser le crédit et demander un autre instrument de paiement. Dans un mode de réalisation préféré de l'invention, une architecture assure la prise en charge de types de messages supplémentaires qui ne sont pas conformes à une transmission électronique protégée. Un serveur communique de manière bidirectionnelle avec une passerelle. Il communique avec la passerelle par une première liaison de communication, sur laquelle les demandes de service sont lancées par le serveur. La passerelle utilise une seconde liaison de communication pour envoyer des signaux de service au serveur. En réponse aux signaux de service, le serveur émet des transactions à l'attention de la passerelle ou présente des informations sur un dispositif d'affichage.

Abstract: A droplet-on-demand ink jet printer uses electrostatic tacking of a recording
medium (24), such as paper, to achieve simultaneously precise holding of an aligned
recording medium on a dielectric surface of a transport belt (14), thereby providing
precise motion quality of the recording medium relative to the printer's printhead (16),
and improved ink droplet placement on the recording medium. The transport belt (14)
is electrostatically charged with a charge of one polarity, so that an electrostatic
pressure is generated which precisely holds the recording medium (24) in an aligned
position on the transport belt (14), after it is fed thereon, and concurrently induces a
charge of opposite polarity on the ink droplets (38) ejected by the printhead, thereby
accelerating the droplets toward the recording medium. The accelerated droplets (38)
reduce transverse forces on the droplets, such as transverse airflows, and
placement errors caused by the repulsion of incoming droplets by previously
printed images are further reduced by migration of the charges of the printed
droplets through the recording medium (24) and consequent charge cancellation, so
that droplet placement is improved.

mode where late fuel-injection on compression stroke
produces a stratified air-fuel mixture, comprises a
variable valve overlap device mounted on at least one

valve overlap during which open periods of the intake
and exhaust valves are overlapped, and a control unit
connected to a fuel injector for switching between the
homogeneous combustion mode and the stratified
combustion mode, and also connected to the variable valve
overlap device for switching between a first valve
overlap suitable for the homogeneous combustion mode and
a second valve overlap suitable for the stratified
combustion mode. The control unit comprises an overlap
switch timing control section for optimizing a switch
timing of the valve overlap, so that a first timing of
switching from the first valve overlap to the second valve
overlap is different from a second timing of switching
from the second valve overlap to the first valve overlap.

Abstract: This invention has as its object to assign a link
destination address to each word in a designated
document. A word to be linked is selected from those
in the designated document (208 to 210), and information
of a search result including a corresponding link
destination address and comment is received from a
search site upon inquiry about the word (211, 212, 213).
The similarity between the comment included in the
information and the contents of the designated document
is calculated to select information of a search result
with a higher similarity (215). Then, an entry which
registers the link destination address of the selected
information, and the currently processed word name
is registered in a link destination table (216).
At the same time, a pointer to that entry is stored
in correspondence with the currently processed word
in the designated document (205), and that word is
highlighted (206).

Abstract: In a method for manufacturing electronic parts by laminating
metal thin films (1) and insulating thin films (2) on a support, a mold
releasing agent is applied to the support before the start of lamination.
Alternatively, the mold releasing agent is applied to the surface of the
laminate during the lamination step, and then lamination is resumed.
Therefore, the laminate can be prevented from cracking when the laminate
is separated from the support or divided into plural pieces in the lamination
direction. Thus, the reliability and productivity of electronic parts
improve.

Abstract: The invention relates to echo cancelling methods used in telephone systems,
more specifically to echo cancelling methods based on two filters. The echo
cancelling method according to the invention employs two adaptive filters, namely,
a main filter (10) and a background filter (50). The purpose of the background filter
(50) is to guard against errors in the main filter (10) model. The main and
background filter coefficients are updated on different conditions, and the residual
signals (L_RES1, L_RES2) produced by the filters are compared to each other.
The set of filter coefficients used for generating the echo canceller's output signal
(S_OUT) is selected on the basis of said comparison of the residual signals. The
selection of the set of filter coefficients is carried out either by copying the
background filter coefficients to the main filter or by interchanging the background
and main filter functions. Operation of the echo canceller in a double talk situation
is enhanced by comparing the residual signals produced by the two filters
frequency band by frequency band, thus avoiding errors caused by echo-resembling
correlations caused by random loud sounds in double talk situations.

Abstract: A Jacquard fabric includes a Jacquard yarn plaited into a base knit structure such as, for example, a "Sleeknit" structure. The fabric may be knitted on a warp knitting machine having at least four guide bars, the frontmost guide bar being a Jacquard guide bar, with the Jacquard yarn being knitted in a knit-float-knit sequence. The two middle guide bars are, for example, fully threaded with multifilament synthetic yarns (e.g. Nylon or polyester), which knit on alternate courses and float on alternate courses. The backmost bar may be fully threaded with, for example, an elastomeric fiber (e.g. Lycra Spandex) which may be laid into the structure during knitting. In an exemplary method for producing the fabric of the present invention, the two middle guide bars knit on alternate courses, so that only one of these bars is knitting on any one course. This arrangement allows the Jacquard yarn to be plaited into the same course and stitch as the finer multifilament yarn on the odd-numbered courses, creating a softer fabric. In addition, the fabric may be produced without a dropping of the stitch from the needle, even when the Jacquard guide bar is being deflected.

Abstract: The communication network has a number of elements (NE1-8) arranged in a ring. These are synchronised by signals from a primary reference clock (PRC) source. The network is checked by introducing the reference clock and performing a phase modulation with a frequency less than the filter frequency of the elements. The phase modulation propagates unmodified from stage to stage and so checks the integrity of the connection. Any line break (BRK) between stages is identified.
