Abstract: According to several aspects of the present invention, a network is monitored for status information indicative of the status of a manageable device within the network. A network manager receives the status information, and updates or initializes a device model in accordance with the status information. A state machine may be used to determine a new state for the device model, and to enable or disable the device model. The network manager may also take action to inquire as to the status of the manageable device, for example by polling the manageable device or by initiating a discovery process. The device model may be used by the network manager as a basis by which to control the manageable device, and thus control aspects of the communications within the network.

Abstract: Speech is transmitted between a base station (BTS) and a TRAU by converting a speech signal into a parameter group which is inserted in a traffic frame which is transmitted as a packet comprising a header and a payload. In accordance with the invention, the payload is formed of the contents of several traffic frames until the payload is essentially full, and a packet is sent to the destination via the transmission network. At the destination the traffic frames are separated from the payload of the received packets and they are passed to a speech decoder. The packing of packets full can be started about a second after the beginning of the connection and after pauses, in which case the ending of a pause is transmitted to the listener as fast as possible.

Abstract: A radio frequency energy management system includes a number of battery control modules and/or a control unit that are configured to exchange battery operating parameter/performance information and control signal by radio frequency. Each battery control module includes one or more sensing elements to measure one or more operating parameters of a respective battery, and at least one device selected from the group including a radio frequency receiver, a radio frequency transmitter, a memory device, a controller, control devices, a signal blocking device, and combination thereof. The control unit is configured to monitor and control the operating parameters of the batteries and includes a radio frequency receiver and a radio frequency transmitter. The control unit evaluates data transmitted from battery control modules according to a predetermined control system program, and transmits a predetermined control command to one or more battery control modules to achieve battery equalization and battery thermal management. The energy management system can also include one or more devices for identifying the relative location of a battery control module in the system, and an interface to permit communication with battery control modules by another device independent of the control unit. Radio frequency signals are transmitted between the control unit and each battery control module, and between battery control modules, without additional wiring, thereby eliminating the disadvantages of wired-type systems.

Abstract: The invention provides for methods for identification of biologically active biomolecules. In one aspect, a biologically active biomolecule such as RNA or a peptide is identified by incorporating random nucleotide sequences in a scaffold constituted by an enzyme activity modulator, transforming substantially identical host cells with the construct obtained thereby and screening the transformed cells to identify those where a preselected phenotypic trait has been altered. The randomized DNA is subsequently isolated from the phenotypically altered cells and the peptide and/or RNA encoded by the random sequence is determined. In turn, interaction partners which are putative drug targets are identified and isolated by use of the peptide and/or RNA as part of affinity reagents. A preferred scaffold is derived from the potato inhibitor I family of protease inhibitors and exemplified is the barley chymotrypsin inhibitor 2A (CI-2A). Another aspect relates to the identification of novel enzyme inhibitors by using substantially the same approach, but screening specifically for changes in target enzyme activity. Also disclosed are methods of producing the relevant transformation and expression vectors as well as methods for identifying lead compounds and drug targets for use in drug development. Finally, the invention also includes within its scope a method for the preparation of a medicinal product.
