Inventor: VIVIANO ROBERT
IPC: A21D13/00
Filed: 1995-12-29
Abstract: In the method for forming a dough food product a layer of dough is disposed upon a surface.   A  filling ingredient is disposed upon a first region of the layer of dough.   A second region of the layer of dough is folded over the first region to cover the filling ingredient and form a pocket enclosing the filling ingredient.  The pocket has an external folded edge formed by the folded layer of dough and a plurality of unsealed external edges.    Seals  are  formed  around  the  filling  ingredient  by sealingly joining the first and second regions along the external unsealed edges.  The maximum fat content of the filling ingredient is selected in order to substantially eliminate breaking of the seals.  The pocket can include a plurality of filling ingredient servings that can be individually sealed to form a plurality of subpockets.   The subpockets can be separated from each other to form separate food product servings.   The food product servings are baked at temperatures in excess of 600° F while maintaining the seals intact.

Title: Laser extractor for an implanted object
Inventor: WILLIAMS TERRELL M
IPC: A61B17/00
Filed: 1994-10-03
Abstract: A lead extraction device which utilizes laser (8) energy to separate an implanted object, such as a pacemaker lead (2), from fibrous scar tissue and thereby permit the implanted object to be extracted from a body.  The extraction device features a catheter (1) having a central lumen (31).  The lumen is preferably dimensioned so a pacemaker lead will fit within. The catheter is thereby guided by the lead.

Patent CA-2187242-A1 (CA)
Title: A method of admission control and routing of virtual circuits
Inventor: GAWLICK RAINER
IPC: H04L12/56
Filed: 1996-10-07
Abstract: A method of admitting and routing switched virtual circuit requests in a network first finds a set of routing paths on which a requested VC may be routed by using a two step process. The method uses a cost function based on a parameter related to the number of hops in a subset of VC connections previously made in the network to determine potential routing paths on which the VC can be routed at a cost below a specified threshold. The method next checks to determine which potentialrouting paths comprise links and nodes with sufficient resources to accommodate the request. Paths satisfying both steps are output as a set of routing paths and then a second criterion is used to select a path from the set on which to route the request. In a distributed routing system, the inventive method uses a local network state todetermine the cost function and the set of routing paths. The method further updates local state information at nodes along a path selected from the set and permits other paths from the set to be selected for routing a requested VC if the previously selected path has insufficient resources to accommodate the request.
Patent CA-2187854-A1 (CA)
Title: Co-adhesive system for bonding wood, fibers, or agriculture based composite materials
Inventor: SLEETER RONALD T
IPC: C11C3/14
Filed: 1996-10-15
Abstract: The invention provides an adhesive system comprising a blend of resin and a co-adhesive conjugated triglyceride drying oil acting as an internal release agent which is mixed with fibers for bonding composite panels such as oriented strand board, particle board, plywood, MDF, hardboard, and similar panels.  The resin is a fast acting bonding material which forms a mat of fibers into a self sustaining panel within a time limit during which a press may be economically utilized.  The triglyceride acts slower so that, after the panel is formed, there is enough time to penetrate the fibers to a depth that results in a superior bonding.  The conjugated drying oil is a release agent that provides an internal release agent that prevents the composite panel from sticking to the press that bonds it.

Title: Method of speech recognition using decoded state sequences having constrained state likelihoods
Inventor: ZELJKOVIC ILIJA
IPC: G10L15/14
Filed: 1997-01-08
Abstract: Embodiments of the invention include a speech recognition method and system for transmitting information including the receipt and decoding of speech information such as that modeled by hidden Markov models (HMMs). The state likelihoods of the modeled state sequences contained within the speech information are assigned penalties based on the difference between those state likelihoods and a maximum possible state likelihood. Once penalties have been assigned, the modified state sequence with the modified state likelihoods having the highest cumulative state likelihoods is used in further speech recognition processing. In this manner, state sequences having no extremely poor state likelihoods are favored over those having both extremely high and extremely poor state likelihoods.

Title: Multiple access coding using bent sequences for mobile radio communications
Inventor: BOTTOMLEY GREGORY E
IPC: H04B1/707
Filed: 1995-08-11
Abstract: Information symbols spread using orthogonal or bi--orthogonal codewords are assigned a unique scramble mask that is taken from a set of scramble masks having selected correlation properties. The set of scramble masks is selected such that the correlation between the modulo-2 sum of two scramble masks with any codeword in a constant magnitude, independent of the codeword and the individual masks being compared. In one embodiment, when any two masks are summed using modulo-2 arithmetic, the Walsh transformation of that sum results in a maximally flat Walsh spectrum. For cellular radio telephone systems using subtractive CDMA demodulation techniques, a two-tier ciphering system ensures security at the cellular system level by using a pseudorandomly generated code key to select one of the scramble masks common to all of the mobile stations in a particular cell. Also, privacy at the individual mobile subscriber level is ensured by using a pseudorandomly generated ciphering key to encipher individual information signals before the scrambling operation.
