Abstract: Business forms, such as brochures, announcement postcards, etc., commonly needed by sales and marketing personnel to follow up inquiries or sales leads, are composed, customized, produced, and distributed in an effective, quick, and accurate manner by utilizing an electronic system and procedure. From remote PC  terminals a user accesses server databases over a global or wide area computer network (such as the Internet), viewing and modifying or inputting user and survey information if desired or where necessary, and accessing templates which have the appropriate and approved accurate text and graphics information. Customer's database information (to whom the collateral should be sent) may be uploaded during the placement of the order, to facilitate quick and effective delivery of customized pieces, typically within 72 hours or less. Screens displayed on the user's monitor are typically in a WINDOWS format allowing ready utilization and execution of the collateral composition and order placement and fulfillment. E-mail confirmations are sent when the order is placed.

Title: Operating resource management system
Inventor: BROWN MARC
IPC: G06Q10/00
Filed: 1998-04-27
Abstract: A software system efficiently procures operating resources within an enterprise. A requisition record generating module generates a requisition record for a requisition. The requisition record indicates at least an operating resource that a requestor desires to purchase. The requisition record generating module generates the requisition record responsive to a combination of input by a requestor and operating resource information in an operating resource information database. An approval path determining module, responsive to the requisition record and to approval rules in an approval rules database, determines an approval path for the requisition record, among various ones of a plurality of possible approvers, required to approve the requisition record. An approval path handling module guides the requisition record along the determined approval path, and the approval path handling module generates a global approval indication in response to the requisition record successfully traversing the approval path.

Abstract: The invention relates to the use of intravenous contrast media for projection mammography as well as new devices for projection mammography. The invention therefore relates to the use of intravenous contrast media for the production of a diagnostic agent for projection mammography. Through the additional intravenous administration of contrast media, projection mammography achieves a sensitivity that is comparable to that of the most modern processes such as magnetic resonance tomography (MRT) while being considerably more versatile and avoiding the costs of MRT. The new process can be implemented simply and without special stress on the patients and provides a significant improvement in a) sensitivity to the detection of focal lesions in the breast, and b) additional information on the nature of lesions detected previously.
Patent CA-2297167-A1 (CA)
Inventor: AMENDOLA STEVEN
IPC: H01M4/00
Filed: 1998-03-04
Abstract: Borides generally can produce a cell (10) with high energy density. High power densities are also achievable using borides that are reasonably good conductors of electricity. High density is important to achieve high energy density. Another important factor is lower molecular weight per available electron. The borides generally provide a favorable balance of these factors, compared to other materials, such as lithium and zinc. Individual borides have other important characteristics, such as titanium boride which is safe. In a preferred embodiment, a boride is used as the anode (14) contained in a metal cup (16), and reacted against an air breathing cathode (20).

IPC: G08B13/24
Filed: 2000-06-12
Abstract: A label having an EAS device or an RFID device associated therewith has a first face with human readable indicia on it and a second face with pressure sensitive repositional adhesive. The pressure sensitive repositional adhesive is pressed onto an exterior surface of a package which holds the label to the package. The package is then shipped to a destination indicated at least in part by the label, and at the destination the label is removed simply by detaching it by pulling it off, the repositional adhesive readily releasing from the package. The package then may be reused with a single label with either conventional construction or like the first label. Preferably the repositional adhesive is part of a piece of double sided adhesive tape, the second face either having permanent adhesive or repositional adhesive if the tape is to be removed from the body of the label and the RFID or EAS device of the label reused.

Title: Handover quality control in a mobile communications system
Inventor: LJUNG PETTER
IPC: H04W52/00
Filed: 1998-12-08
Abstract: A method and system for controlling the quality of handovers are disclosed in which a poor radio environment in a target cell is revealed prior to completion of the handover procedure. During the handover signalling phase, the output power of the mobile station (16) of interest and the target cell's base transceiver station (14) are reduced. Consequently, prior to completion of the handover, if the target cell has a poor radio environment (below a predetermined C/I or C/N), the handover attempt will fail, and the mobile sation (16) will revert and remain connected to the original cell.

Cet objectif est atteint par le fait que plusieurs guides d'ondes lumineuses (2), en forme de bande, sont disposés sur un support (1) plan, séparés les uns des autres par un intervalle défini, de telle sorte qu'avec leurs faces (21, 22), ils viennent à fleur des côtés (11, 12) opposés du support plan (1). Chaque guide d'ondes lumineuses (2) en forme de bande est pourvu d'au moins une couche métallique (3) mince permettant l'excitation de plasmonds superficiels, dans une section devant être mise en contact avec les échantillons fluides. Des moyens (14) servent à séparer l'une de l'autre les zones de mesure des différentes couches métalliques (3) minces, de sorte qu'un seul échantillon peut être affecté à chacun des guides d'ondes lumineuses (2).
