Title: Expanding seal anchor for single incision surgery
Inventor: RICHARD PAUL D
IPC: A61B1/012

Title: Improvements in or relating to stand mixers
Inventor: EDEN ROLAND
IPC: A47J43/07
Filed: 2008-04-08
Granted: 2013-01-10
Abstract: The invention provides a stand mixer (10) having a head part (50) from which a working tool depends towards a pedestal (40) upon which a bowl can be placed so that the working tool can be employed to mix ingredients in the bowl; the tool being driven by means of an electric motor and gearing to perform a planetary mixing action within the bowl. The head part (50) is pivotable away from the pedestal (40), in order to permit the tool to be moved into and out of the bowl; this pivotal movement of the head part being initiated by user-operation of a mechanical latch (72, 74, 57), and assisted by the influence of a strong spring (80). In order to prevent the head part (50) from moving upwards rapidly and being stopped abruptly when it reaches the end of its travel, the invention further provides a damper (90) configured to restrict the rate of movement of the head part (50). By this means, the aforementioned abrupt stopping of the head part (50) is countered, since the damper (90) opposes the powerful resilient urge provided by the spring (80).

Title: Distributed, fault-tolerant and highly available computing system
Inventor: DORAI CHITRA
IPC: G06F15/16
Filed: 2008-04-15
Granted: 2013-03-28
Abstract: A method and system for achieving highly available, fault-tolerant execution of components in a distributed computing system, without requiring the writer of these components to explicitly write code (such as entity beans or database transactions) to make component state persistent. It is achieved by converting the intrinsically non-deterministic behavior of the distributed system to a deterministic behavior, thus enabling state recovery to be achieved by advantageously efficient checkpoint-replay techniques. The method comprises: adapting the execution environment for enabling message communication amongst and between the components; automatically associating a deterministic timestamp in conjunction with a message to be communicated from a sender component to a receiver component during program execution, the timestamp representative of estimated time of arrival of the message at a receiver component. At a component, tracking state of that component during program execution, and periodically checkpointing the state in a local storage device. Upon failure of a component, the component state is restored by recovering a recent stored checkpoint and re-executing the events occurring since the last checkpoint. The system is deterministic by repeating the execution of the receiving component by processing the messages in the same order as their associated timestamps.

Title: Biological tissue growth through induced tensile stress
Inventor: RIGOTTI GINO
IPC: C12N5/071
Filed: 2008-05-29
Granted: 2014-01-30
Abstract: A tissue expansion device implanted in a non-activated state over a region of desired tissue growth. Once implanted and positioned the device is activated creating a supporting structure that creates a convex shaped dome over the underlying tissue. The convex shaped dome formed by the tissue expansion device places a tensile stress against the underlying tissue that promotes tissue growth. Alone or with the introduction of tissue enhancing agents and/or adipose tissue, new tissue within the convex shaped void grows until a balance is achieved eliminating the induced stress. Periodically the tissue expansion devices is again activated and enlarged creating an even larger void. Again, the newly enlarged void places additional tensile stress on the underlying tissue thus repeating the cycle of new tissue growth. Once the desired amount of tissue growth has been achieved the device is deactivated and removed.

Title: Method for the permanent connection of workpieces, compression tool, and attachment for a compression tool
Inventor: HOFMANN FRANK
IPC: B25B27/10
Filed: 2009-01-30
Granted: 2012-11-01
Abstract: The invention relates to a compression tool (2) for the permanent connection of workpieces (14, 16, 18, 30, 34) having two pivot elements (4), which each have a compression jaw (10), and having at least one rotational axis (6), on which the pivot elements (4) are hinged, wherein the inner contours of the opposing compression jaws (10) form a receiving area (12). The present invention is based on the technical problem of disclosing an alternative compression tool (2), with which a permanent connection can be provided between workpieces (14, 16, 18, 30, 34) by axial compression. The technical problem is solved in that the inner contours have at least one sliding face (2), which is inclined relative to the receiving area axis (20). A compression tool (2) can thus be provided which, starting from a radial inward movement, performs a compression in the axial direction, nonetheless requires little installation space, and offers weight advantages due to a smaller axial extension, for example. Furthermore, the invention relates to an attachment for a compression tool (2) and to a method for the permanent connection of workpieces using a compression tool.

Title: Iterative decoding of blocks with cyclic redundancy checks
Inventor: RAMESH RAJARAM
IPC: H04L1/00
Filed: 2009-09-16
Granted: 2015-11-12
Abstract: The iterative decoding of blocks may be continued or terminated based on CRC checks. In an example embodiment, one iteration of an iterative decoding process is performed on a block whose information bits are covered by a CRC. The iterative decoding process is stopped if the CRC checks for a predetermined number of consecutive iterations. In another example embodiment, a decoding iteration is performed on a particular sub-block of multiple sub-blocks of a transport block, which includes a single CRC over an entirety of the transport block. The CRC is checked using decoded bits obtained from the decoding iteration on the particular sub-block and decoded bits obtained from previous decoding iterations on other sub-blocks of the multiple sub-blocks. The decoding iteration is then performed on a different sub-block if the CRC does not check. Also, the decoding iterations for the sub-blocks may be terminated if the CRC checks.
