Abstract: A control device detects a characteristic change of an
air-fuel ratio sensor indicative of deterioration of the
air-fuel ratio sensor. The control device determines
deterioration due to aging of the air-fuel ratio sensor
accurately and calculates an air-fuel ratio from the air-fuel
ratio sensor highly accurately. Then, the control
device detects a current proportional to the concentration
of oxygen in the detected gas from a sensor element by
applying a voltage to the sensor element of the air-fuel
ratio sensor. By applying AC voltages at high and low
frequencies to the element, an AC impedance is detected.
The temperature of the element is controlled to a target
temperature according to the high frequency impedance and a
characteristic change of the element is detected in
accordance with the low frequency impedance.

Abstract: A distributed settings control protocol. One or more embodiments of the
invention provide the ability for an application running on a server across a
network to modify various settings related to the terminals such as display
resolution, audio output configuration (such as volume control or headphones v.
speaker), and energy saver procedures. These abilities are provided by adhering
to several protocol properties. One or more embodiments may include but are
not limited to the following properties: (1) a terminal maintains knowledge
regarding which applications are currently viewing or accessing the terminal; (2)
applications/programs and servers know the state of terminal settings (referred
to as idempotence and consistency); (3) to modify a setting, a server provides the
correct current setting to the terminal prior to the terminal completing a change
(referred to as locking compliance); (4) the settings are mobile from one terminal
to another; (5) the settings on each terminal are independent of other terminals
to provide for differences between terminal models and hardware (referred to
as model independence); and (6) a user, a third party agent, a manufacturer, or
other entity is permitted to set any desired policy related to the settings (referred
to as policy free). By adhering to the above properties, the protocol of one or
more embodiments ensures that settings are maintained accurately and
consistently across a network while permitting multiple entities to modify and
configure the settings.

Abstract: The present invention describes a method for germination activating spores of red
 Ganoderma lucidum  to produce bioactive substances which has medicinal effects on patients
with immunological disorders, cancer, AIDS, hepatitis, diabetes, and cardiovascular diseases,
and can prevent or inhibit free radical oxidation and hepatotoxic effects. The method can be
subdivided into three stages. At the first stage, a germination activation method is introduced
which includes soaking the spores in a solution to induce germination, and placing the
germination treated spores in a culture box to induce the synthesis of bioactive substances and
softening of the cell walls of the spores. At the second stage, sporoderm-broken ganoderma
spores are collected by treating the epispores with cell wall breaking enzymes and/or
mechanical force. At the last stage, the bioactive substances are extracted from the
sporoderm-broken spores by drying at low temperature followed by extraction.

Abstract: A method, apparatus, and computer program product for determining a drop
probability for use in a congestion control module located in a node in a network is
disclosed. A weight value for determining a weighted moving average of a queue in
a node is first systematically calculated. The weighted moving average is calculating
and an average queue size for the node is determined based upon the weighted
moving average. A control function associated with the congestion control module is
evaluated using the average queue size to determine the drop probability. The weight
value may be calculated by first determining a sampling period for measuring the
queue size. Next, a time period for which samples significantly contribute to the
average queue size is calculated. The weight is determined based upon the sampling
period and the time period. In a further embodiment, the control function is
calculated based upon a queue function where the queue function is calculated based
upon predetermined system parameters. The control function may be selected based
upon a queue policy for management of the queue. From the queue policy a
threshold value which lies along the queue function curve is determined. This point
provides a minimum value for the maximum point of the control function so as to
avoid oscillations within the buffer. A maximum point may then be selected which
resides outside of the curve for the queue function. The control function may then be
selected so that the control function crosses through the maximum point. Thus, when
the congestion control module drops packets based upon the drop probability
determined by the control function the queue will not oscillate.

Abstract: By redistributing the running totals for various preliminary
classifications to other preliminary classifications based upon the values
of the most recent cardiac events, the present invention biases the
running totals (thereby biasing the duration criteria) to help overcome
common discrimination problems which permits the stimulation device to
make a correct and final therapy decision more quickly. To identify a
patient's heart rhythm, various electrical events such as P-waves and R-waves,
and their timing, relationship, and stability, are detected and a
preliminary classification is made for each detected event. Running totals
of the numbers of all events detected within each of the preliminary
classifications are maintained, along with sliding totals covering only the
most recently detected events. Then, the arrhythmia is identified based
upon an analysis of both the running totals and the sliding totals. In a
preferred embodiment, the arrhythmia is identified by first determining
whether the sliding total of the number of detected events in any one of
the preliminary classifications exceeds a corresponding sliding total
threshold. If so, the running totals are then selectively redistributed
based upon the sliding totals. The final decision is then made based
upon whether the running total corresponding to any one of the
preliminary classifications exceeds a corresponding running total
threshold. Both method and apparatus embodiments are disclosed.
Methods are further described for determining the preliminary
classifications of the detected events.
