Patent CA-2629725-A1 (CA)
Title: Application of a switched reluctance motion control system in a chiller system
Inventor: SCHNETZKA HAROLD ROBERT
IPC: F25B49/02
Filed: 2006-11-14
Abstract: A chiller system includes a switched reluctance motor for powering the compressor of the chiller system. A variable speed drive with a boost converter provides a boosted voltage to the switched reluctance motor. The switched reluctance motor and the compressor may be disposed within the same hermetic enclosure and driven by a common drive shaft. Cooling for both the variable speed drive and the switched reluctance motor is provided from condenser water in the condenser water circuit, or from an intermediate liquid cooled by water from the condenser circuit to increase system efficiency.  Windage losses are reduced by barriers introduced within the motor, and by maintaining a reduced pressure in the switched reluctance motor.

Patent CA-2633840-A1 (CA)
Inventor: CRANER MICHAEL L
IPC: H04N7/173
Filed: 2006-12-12
Abstract: The invention manages resources and resolve conflicts when locally recording multimedia assets from a variety of sources in multimedia delivery systems.  Local and system resources such as storage, tuners, and bandwidth are considered when alternative sources for assets are available (e.g., VOD).  Rather than record assets locally, if equivalent assets are available via alternative sources, the recordings are deferred and a pointer to the equivalent asset is stored in lieu of the asset itself. When a user selects a multimedia asset for playback, an "on demand" or alternative source session is started for the asset associated with the pointer. Before the expiration date of the alternative source equivalent of the mutimedia asset, it may be downloaded and recored locally. The system may automatically determine based on various factors, such as transmission bandwidth, latency, and DRM, whether to store assets or pointers.

Title: Deflectable catheter with a flexibly attached tip section
Inventor: WORLEY SETH J
IPC: A61B18/08
Filed: 2006-12-18
Abstract: A catheter for mapping and/or ablating a region of the heart, comprises a catheter body with an intermediate section that is connected to a tip assembly by a highly flexible preshaped section. The highly flexible section presets the tip assembly at an off axis and/or off plane angles from the intermediate section, to provide the following: a) The intermediate section when deflected approximates the generally convex region of the cavo tricuspid isthmus and the preset angle of the flexible section is off axis in the same plane and same direction as deflection of the intermediate section to enable the tip assembly to contact the cavo tricuspid isthmus for ablation and/or mapping. b) The intermediate section when deflected approximates the generally concave region of the VA/RV/LA/LV and the preset angle in the same plane and opposite direction of deflection enables the tip assembly to contact the walls of the cavity for ablation and/or mapping. c) The intermediate section when deflected approximates the generally convex region of the His area and the preset off plane angle of the flexible section enable the tip assembly to contact the Bundle of His region. A high bending modulus of the flexible section enables the flexible section to absorb displacement force applied to the tip assembly, such as when the tip assembly encounters uneven tissue surface, without displacing the intermediate section. The flexible section prevents excessive force from being applied to the tip assembly, reducing the risk of any of the following: a) mechanical perforation, b) steam pop, c) burying the tip assembly in the myocardium resulting in high temperatures, low energy delivery, thrombus formation and char formation.

Abstract: Methods and devices for treating skin include a skin-contacting portion, an actuator and a processor, wherein activation of the actuator causes surface acoustic waves of Rayleigh, "pseudo" Rayleigh types to be produced on the skin around the actuator. In a location which is under the actuator, the actuator produces tension and repulsion of skin particles. These surface acoustic waves can be used to provide treatment to the skin, including wound healing, non-adhesion of bandages, reduced infection, reduced pain and cosmetic enhancements. The skin-contacting portion may be a patch or bandage, a glove, a hand-held device, or any other suitable configuration. The actuator is incorporated into the skin-contacting portion.

Abstract: A light bar is described that is of a modular construction based on one or more large circuit boards that are populated with light beam assemblies and then fastened to an interior space of the light bar housing. Keys that automatically align the light beam assemblies on each of the boards precisely control placement of the assemblies on the board. In turn, each of the boards is keyed to the interior of the light bar housing so that when the board is fastened to the housing the light beam assemblies are automatically registered into alignment with the lenses in the housing so that the beams from the assemblies are properly oriented. The light bar is inexpensive to fabricate and can be assembled quickly and reliably, yet it provides for a high degree of customization, which is a requirement in the emergency vehicle lighting industry.
Patent CA-2648744-A1 (CA)
Title: Computer security
Inventor: OAK RICHARD ANDREW
IPC: G06F21/51
Filed: 2007-04-12
Abstract: Method and apparatus for mitigating the effects of security threat involving malicious code concealed in computer files (for example computer viruses, etc.). The method operates by inserting additional strings of arbitrary length within computer files of known type which may contain such security threats. The strings are chosen to have no substantial effect on the files in normal operation, but potentially disrupt attack code located in the file. Inserted sequences may incorporate a character sequence which, if interpreted as code, halts execution of that program. Alternatively, or in addition, character sequences may be deleted or reordered provided that they have no effect on normal interpretation of the file. As a result, the effect of malicious code operating successfully as intended by an attacker may be mitigated. The methods do not require prior knowledge of the nature of a specific threat and so provide threat mitigation for previously unidentified threats.

The source device then receives a first message, addressed to the source device from the second device, indicating that the first hop reservation request is pending and that the X slots proposed by the source device have been reserved by the second device. Later, the source device receives a subsequent message indicating whether a final hop reservation request has been accepted by the destination device.
