Abstract: A catheter has a basket-shaped electrode assembly (18) which includes an improved mechanism for expanding and contracting the electrode array. The expansion mechanism permits reproducible reintroduction of the catheter into the heart. The catheter comprises an elongated catheter body having at least one lumen through it. A basket-shaped electrode assembly is mounted at the distal end of the catheter body. The basket assembly comprises a plurality of spines (20) connected at their proximal and distal ends, each of which comprises at least one electrode (28). The basket assembly has an expanded arrangement wherein the spines bow radially outwardly and a collapsed arrangement wherein the spines are arranged generally along the axis of the catheter body. An expander is attached at or near its distal end to the distal ends of the spines and extends through the catheter body. The expander has a proximal end that extends out the proximal end of the catheter body a lumen extending through it. In use, the expander can be moved longitudinally relative to the catheter body to expand and contract the basket-shaped electrode assembly. The lumen that extends through the expander permits the catheter to be introduced into the heart over a guidewire. If the catheter is removed and subsequently reintroduced over the guidewire, the basket-shaped electrode assembly can be easily reintroduced to its original position. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A method is described for a home entertainment system ( 500 ) to control the playout of audio-visual (AV) content ( 506 ) from a source component ( 502 ) (such as a VCR or DVD player), depending on a signal ( 508 ) which indicates whether the AV content is being consumed by a destination component ( 504 ) (such as a TV or audio amplifier). The method operates without requiring any dedicated user interaction. Optionally, an apparatus ( 510 ) may interpret the signal ( 508 ) and in response generate commands ( 512 ) suitable for controlling the source component, for example by emulating infrared remote control commands. Preferably, the signal ( 502 ) and commands ( 512 ) are implemented using the Project50 protocol.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing computer processed animation. A work station (4) which comprises a computer and peripheral equipment is operative in producing a graphic movement sequence for a cartoon figure (10), by compiling a recording of measuring data from strategic parts of an actor, and storing in a memory (7) information concerning the figure to be animated. The figure is divided into a plurality of sections which are movable in relation to one another. Prior to figure compilation for producing an image of the figure, the measuring data recording for each section is obtained in the form of a space angle. Prior to compiling each section, a grouping of a pre-determined number of perspective drawings is stored, in digitalized form in a respective area of the memory (7), each grouping in a plurality of mutually different space angle positions. A memory area of interest representing a perspective drawing of one of the sections can be addressed with the aid of information relating to said space angle obtained from the measuring data recording for the section concerned. The figure is compiled in the compilation image in accordance with a pre-determined sequential compilation schedule, section after section, wherein each subsequent section is added to nearest proceeding section at a joint location (e.g. M2, M3, etc.) common to both sections.

Abstract: A method of pairing disk units in a computer system where mirroring is desirable is disclosed. Where possible, disk units are paired with other disk units located on a different bus. This provides the highest level of protection against inaccessible data due to data loss or failure of a component in the computer system. Where this is not possible, the remaining disk units are paired with disk units located on a different I/O processor, a different controller, or a different disk enclosure. Where none of these pairings are possible, the remaining disk units fall below the threshold level of protection and therefore cannot be paired within the segment. Any disk units that could not be paired are placed on a spare list. Several attempts are made to pair up disk units on the spare list. If all of these attempts fail, the paired disk units with the lowest level of protection are broken apart and added to the spare list, where attempts are again made to pair up the disk units on the spare list. After all units are paired, a pair of disk units is compared with other pairs of disk units to see if the level of protection can be increased by swapping mates. This comparison of pairs of disk units is repeated until the level of protection is optimized. Each time the computer system is started, a check is made to determine if a configuration change resulted in a lower level of protection. If so, the user is asked if he would like the disk units on the computer system to be re-paired to increase the level of protection. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A mechanism which is capable of anastomosis of two lumens by an absorbable fastener. The fastener is made from two washer-like plates (20,30). One such plate (30) has holes (34) to receive latching prongs (24) protruding from the other plate (20). Fastening is done through a single linear motion that causes the prongs (24) to pierce the tissue, latches the prongs (24) into a receiver (34) and causes a knife blade (40) to cut through excess fastener material and tissue. The ease of removal, by pulling the mechanism thorugh the formed anastomosis, is greatly enhanced.
