Patent CA-2578444-A1 (CA)
Inventor: RAIL PETER D
IPC: G06F17/30
Filed: 2005-07-26
Abstract: A method, system, and computer program product for aiding a user in navigating documents containing hyperlinks is provided. In one embodiment, the system retrieves, in response to a user request, a document from a network location.  The system parses the document for hyperlinks and responsive to detecting a hyperlink, sends a request for at least a portion of the secondary document associated with the hyperlinks to a server. The portion contains information sufficient to determine relevance of the secondary document to the user. The system then receives the information from the server and compares the information within the portion of the secondary document to reader preferences. Based on the results of the comparison of the information with the reader preferences, the system modifies the appearance of the hyperlink.  If the system determines that the secondary document is highly relevant to the user, the system may also prefetch the secondary document and store it in a read ahead cache to speed up browsing for the user.

Patent CA-2591717-A1 (CA)
Title: Histone demethylation mediated by the nuclear amine oxidase homolog lsd1
Inventor: SHI YUJIANG
IPC: C12Q1/26
Filed: 2005-12-16
Abstract: LSD1, a homolog of nuclear amine oxidases, functions as a histone demethylase and transcriptional co-repressor. LSD1 specifically demethylates histone H3 lysine 4, which is linked to active transcription. Lysine demethylation occurs via an oxidation reaction that generates formaldehyde. Importantly, RNAi inhibition of LSD1 causes an increase in H3 lysine 4 methylation and concomitant de-repression of target genes, suggesting that LSD1 represses transcription via histone demethylation. The results thus identify a histone demethylase conserved from S. pombe to human and reveal dynamic regulation of histone methylation by both histone methylases and demethylases.

Title: Method and arrangement in a communication system for delivering messages to a recipient
Inventor: ERIKSSON ANDERS
IPC: H04L12/58
Filed: 2005-11-30
Abstract: The described messaging arrangement for delivering communication messages to recipients in a communication system comprises a number of messaging servers (201-204), a common message store (205) and a dispatcher (206). The messaging servers (201-204) are able to receive a message destined to a recipient, to store the message in the common message store and to inform the dispatcher of the received message that has been stored in the common message store. The dispatcher is then arranged to decide which messaging server to invoke for delivery of the message to the recipient. This decision could be made based on delivery preferences of the recipient. Thereafter, the dispatcher invokes the messaging server that has been decided to deliver the message, and the decided messaging server retrieves and delivers the message to the recipient. If necessary, the decided messaging server adapts the message to a message type handled by the decided messaging server. By this solution, a recipient could receive the message in any preferred message type, regardless of originating message type. Also, this arrangement makes it easier for an operator to integrate new messaging technologies handling new message types in the system.
