Title: Technology for improving STP protocols in Ethernet networks supporting VLANS
Inventor: KASPIT IDAN
IPC: H04L12/753
Filed: 2004-04-01
Abstract: A method for utilizing a Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) in an Ethernet network wherein a number of VLANs are defined and a plurality of Ethernet switching nodes (A, B, C D E, F,G H) are interconnected via their ports (A1,...,H4) so that each of the ports is initially assigned to one or more VLANs, and each of the VLANs is intended to enable traffic between two or more edge ports (D3, B3). The method comprises a so-called pruning procedure initiated upon establishing a new STP topology (30) related to one or more VLANs. This procedure concerns a broadcast domain of at least one of the VLANs and is aimed at obtaining a sub-tree for each pruned VLAN in the new STP topology. The sub-tree is usually shrunk, bound by the edge ports assigned to the corresponding pruned VLAN, and thus eliminates broadcast traffic of the pruned VLAN to any Ethernet switch extending beyond the obtained sub-tree. <IMAGE>

Title: Screen for pre-eclampsia
Inventor: HINGORANI AROON
IPC: G01N33/68
Filed: 2004-04-19
Abstract: It has been demonstrated that the level of asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA) increases in women that subsequently develop pre-eclampsia or whose fetus subsequently develops intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) and that ADMA plays a key role in the development of maternal hypertension. Accordingly, the level of ADMA in a pregnant woman can be used to determine whether or not a pregnant woman is at risk of developing pre-eclampsia or whether or not a fetus is at risk of developing IUGR. Furthermore, antagonists of ADMA activity are useful in the inhibition or prevention of pre-eclampsia or inhibition or prevention of IUGR.

Title: Gas recovery of sulphur hexafluoride
Inventor: STOKES ANTHONY
IPC: F25J3/08
Filed: 2005-05-16
Abstract: A system and method is provided for recovering a re-usable grade of sulphur hexafluoride (SF6) from a potentially contaminated gas source. The system includes extraction vessels (10) connected to the potentially contaminated gas source. A first cryogenic means (15) reduces the temperature of the extraction vessel to a temperature below the phase transition of SF6 causing a pressure differential which causes the potentially contaminated gas to enter the extraction vessels (10). The SF6 turns to liquid and/or solid form in the extraction vessel (10). Non-condensed contaminant gas is evacuated from the extraction vessels (10). Recovery vessels (22) are connected to the extraction vessel. A second cryogenic means (25) is used to reduce the temperature of the recovery vessels (22). Raising the temperature of the extraction vessels (10) creates a pressure differential which causes a re-usable grade of SF6 to enter the recovery vessels (22).
