Title: System and method for adaptable provisioning of generic application content
Inventor: GORING BRYAN R
IPC: G06F3/00
Filed: 2005-01-28
Granted: 2011-10-04
Abstract: The current state of art for over-the-air (OTA) provisioning typically consists of a rigid set of operations that are suited to deliver a fixed content type. The runtime environment on the terminal is designed to handle a limited set of predefined content types and incapable of any content-adaptive or customized provisioning by the content provider or publisher. Systems and methods are provided for adaptable provisioning of an application program on a runtime environment of a terminal. The application includes generic application content. One method comprises the steps of configuring a provisioning API set including a generic API, such that the generic API is addressable by at least two dissimilar content types of the generic application content; obtaining an enabler related to a selected content type of the generic application content, such that the enabler is configured for executing provisioning instruction requests for the generic application content according to the selected application content; and provisioning portions of the generic application content having the selected application content by using the enabler to access the generic API.

Abstract: The present invention includes a method of utilizing four peptide hormones to inhibit the growth of cancer(s). A dramatic decrease in the number of human pancreatic adenocarcinoma cells (Le., the type of cancer with the highest mortality, with patients only surviving four months) was observed responsive to treatment. The application of the invention would be to utilize one or more of these peptide hormones alone and/or in combination to treat cancer. The ability of these peptide hormones to decrease the number of adenocarcinoma cells has implications for adenocarcinomas at other sites in the body with the majority of cancers of the breast, colon and prostate also being adenocarcinomas. Adenocarcinomas also occur in the lung and other tissues.  Treatment of a wide variety of cancers in addition to adenocarcinomas is anticipated by the present invention.

Abstract: To facilitate legal research, companies, such as Thomson West, provide subscription-based online information-retrieval systems. Seeking to improve these and related IR systems, the present inventors recognized researchers often overlook some types of documents, such as legal encyclopedias and treatises that may be useful to them. Accordingly, the present inventors devised systems, methods, and software that automatically search for other types of documents not specifically targeted by user queries. One exemplary system automatically submits a user query for legal opinions to first and second databases, with the first storing legal opinions and the second storing non-opinion documents, such as headnotes from the West Key Number System, articles from American Law Reports, and/or articles from American Jurisprudence.

Title: Soft handoff for reverse link in a wireless communication system with frequency reuse
Inventor: AGRAWAL AVNEESH
IPC: H04B1/713
Filed: 2005-06-08
Granted: 2012-11-06
Abstract: For soft handoff on the reverse link with restrictive reuse, a wireless terminal searches for pilots transmitted by sectors in a wireless system, measures the detected pilots, selects a serving sector (e.g., the strongest received sector), and identifies non-serving sectors that may receive high interference from the terminal. The serving sector assigns the terminal with subband(s) that are usable by the serving sector and unusable by the non-serving sectors. The terminal transmits data symbols on the assigned subbands to the serving and non-serving sectors. These sectors process the reverse link transmission from the terminal and obtain soft-decision symbols, which are estimates of the transmitted data symbols. The soft-decision symbols from co-located sectors may be combined and then decoded to obtain decoded packets.  The sectors may also independently decode the soft-decision symbols, and the decoded packets from these sectors may be combined to obtain final decoded packets for the terminal.
