Title: Methods and systems for generating interactive information formatted for a device
Inventor: EBERT PETER STEFFEN
IPC: G06F15/16
Filed: 2000-09-22
Abstract: A system (316) for generating interactive information that may be embedded in a physical device in order to integrate information from external information sources in the physical device. The system (316) obtains information from external sources by connecting to an external service in a computer system through a URL to a Number Transformation Algorithm (UNT) number. The UNT performs bi-directional transformation between the UNT number and a corresponding URL, thereby enabling physical devices with said embedded system to obtain information from the Web without using alphanumeric characters. Upon creating the UNT number and assigning it to an information source, a service provider distributes the UNT number to the said system in order for the said embedded system to access the information stored therein.

Title: Semiconductor laser device
Inventor: YOSHIDA JUNJI
IPC: H01S5/20
Filed: 2001-06-19
Abstract: In a III - V semiconductor laser diode, a spacer layer is used between an n-doped cladding layer and an undoped optical confinement layer to mitigate crystal defects that would otherwise be formed at the interface between the layers due to the memory effect associated with doping the cladding layer. The spacer layer is formed of compatible III - V  semiconductor compounds and may be either a single layer or a plurality of sublayers. The spacer layer of the present invention also has application to other semiconductor devices where the memory effect causes crystal defects at the interface between two differently doped layers.

Abstract: L'invention concerne des méthodes de traitement de maladies ou de troubles cutanés caractérisés par l'angiogenèse, dans lesquelles sont utilisées la curcumine et des analogues de la curcumine. A partir des résultats obtenus avec la curcumine, on a déterminé que d'autres inhibiteurs d'angiogenèse peuvent également être utilisés pour traiter ces troubles cutanés. On a également découvert que, pour inhiber l'angiogenèse, la curcumine agit en partie par inhibition du facteur de base de croissance des fibroblastes (bFGF) et constitue ainsi un moyen de traiter d'autres troubles caractérisés par des niveaux élevés de bFGF, par exemple le cancer de la vessie, grâce à l'utilisation de la curcumine et d'autres analogues également inhibiteurs du bFGF. Les troubles cutanés représentatifs à traiter incluent les affections malignes comme l'angiosarcome, l'hémangio-endothéliome, l'épithélioma basocellulaire, l'épithélioma spinocellulaire, les mélanomes malins et le sarcome de Karposi, et les affections ou états pathologiques bénins comme le psoriasis, la lymphangiogenèse, l'hémangiome de l'enfance, le syndrome de Sturge-Weber, les verrues, la neurofibromatose, la sclérose tuberculeuse, les granulomes pyogènes, l'épidermolyse bulleuse dystrophique récessive, les ulcères veineux, l'acné, l'acné rosacée, l'eczéma, le molluscum contagieux, la kératose séborrhéique, et la kératose actinique.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for enhancing the efficacy of an immune response against an antigen which is a self-antigen. The method of th e invention comprises (i) immunization of a host with a mimic of the self- antigen to break tolerance to a self antigen, and (ii) increasing the respon se to the self-antigen by a booster with the original antigen. An immune respon se may be generated against any self antigen including, for example, tumor associated antigens, cell surface receptors, receptor ligands, cytokines, hormones, or a self antigen whose expression is associated with a disease or  disorder. The method of the invention may be used to target destruction of targeted tumor cells bearing tumor associated antigens in cancer subjects through induction of an immune response.

IPC: G10H1/00
Filed: 2002-05-15
Abstract: An interactive dynamic musical composition real time music presentation video game system uses individually composed musical compositions stored as building blocks. The building blocks are structured as nodes of a sequential state machine. Transitions between states are defined based on exit point of current state and entrance point into the new state.      Game-related parameters can trigger transition from one compositional building block to another. For example, an interactivity variable can keep track of the current state of the video game or some aspect of it. In one example, an adrenaline counter gauging excitement based on the number of game objectives that have been accomplished can be used to control transitions between more relaxed musical states to more exciting and energetic musical states.     Transitions can be handled by cross-fading between one music compositional component to another, or by providing transitional compositions. The system can be used to dynamically generate a musical composition in real time.      Advantages include allowing a musical composer to compose a number of discrete musical compositions corresponding to different video game or other multimedia presentation states, and providing smooth transition between the different compositions responsive to interactive user input and/or other parameters.

Title: Mobile route monitoring unit
Inventor: ASAM ROBERT
IPC: G08B25/10
Filed: 2000-10-16
Abstract: The invention relates to a mobile route monitoring unit comprising a data store, which stores predefined route data, a position sensor, which determines the position of the mobile route monitoring unit, a processor, which determines possible deviations from a route defined by said route data, a permissible route and the actual position of the unit and a transmitter, which in the event of a deviation from the route sends a signal to a center.  Combination of the above-mentioned elements to form a mobile unit enables self-sufficient route monitoring to be performed, which can accordingly occur locally, i.e. executed by the unit. The necessity of transmitting cost incurring signals at regular intervals becomes superfluous. Non-permissible route deviations are rapidly determined and are securely communicated by sending a signal to the center. The invention also relates to the utilization of a permissible and defined region instead of said route.
Patent CA-2389639-A1 (CA)
Inventor: WALL CORNELIO
IPC: B60P7/08
Filed: 2002-06-17
Abstract: In a tool used to secure loads on trailers for transport, namely a chain, a device called a "binder" is used on the end of the chain to tighten the chain and make the load secure. According to traffic laws in Canada, the aforementioned binder must in itself be secured in such a way as not to be able to open during transit. This is usually done by tying wire around the handle of the binder until the handle cannot be opened before the wire is removed. Wire, however, does not work well in this application. Therefore something better was needed and this new concept was invented. This new invention, the "binder clip", takes the place of the wire, and is easier to use, will not fall oil is not as easy to lose, and it makes the binder secure, which is not always the case with wire.
