Abstract: An agent (50) in a distributed computing environment includes a negotiation management module (NMM) (51) which is invoked when it is necessary to form a contract with another external agent for providing a particular service, a resource management module (RMM) (52) which manages resources controlled by the agent, a service/task management module (SMM) (53) which launches and controls services and tasks associated with the agent, and a communications module (CM) (56) which is the focus for both incoming and outgoing messages to and from the agent. The agent (50) is also provided with an acquaintance model (AM) (55) which provides an overall picture of services offered by other agents in the environment and a self model (SM) (54) which maintains a representation of the services which the agent (50) can itself provide. When requested to provide a service, the NMM (51) negotiates with the requestor, via the CM (56), on the basis of information provided by the RMM (52) relating to resources available to the agent (50). When a contract is finalised, the RMM (52) oversees the management of the resources controlled by the agent and the SMM (53) controls the services and tasks required by the agent (50) to complete the contract.

Abstract: A plate handling apparatus (10) including a plate feeder (12) for sequentially advancing a stack of plates (11) and a pick-up assembly (14) for successively removing the forwardmost plate from the stack is disclosed. The plate feeder (12) includes a conveyor (18), a pair of clutches (22,24), and a crank assembly (26) for moving the stack a first distance toward the pick-up assembly and for subsequently moving the stack a second, slightly shorter distance away from the pick-up assembly before the pick-up assembly removes the forwardmost plate from the stack. This consecutively feeds the stack of plates towards the pick-up assembly so that the forwardmost plate in the stack can be removed from the stack by the pick-up assembly. This also provides a gap between the stack of plates and the pick-up assembly immediately before the pick-up assembly removes the forwardmost plate from the stack for preventing the removed plate from striking the remaining plates in the stack.

Abstract: There is described a device for fastening in a bone, preferably the cranial bone. The device is usable for continual supervision without sterile conditions and without need for full anaesthesia. The device comprises a self-cutting screw which by means of a tool is placed in a boring that previously has been formed in the bone. The screw has an inner hollow space in which there is located a signal transducer, and at that end facing inwards towards the cranial cavity, the screw will be covered by signal penetrable membrane. When the screw is in its proper place, the "observation aperture" which is formed will have been closed, and, in practise, it appears that there is no risk of infections.

Abstract: The sample dilution module includes an oil filled aspiration probe and mixing chamber that communicate with each other while the mixing chamber is maintained at an angle of approximately 5 to 45 degrees below a horizontal axis. The aspiration probe is maintained in a vertical orientation. A micro-bubble is aspirated between separate aspirations of test sample and diluent to prevent contact between the sample and diluent in the aspiration probe. The test sample and diluent are then drawn from the vertically oriented aspiration probe into the mixing chamber. After the sample and diluent are in the mixing chamber the micro-bubble of air can migrate away from the test sample and diluent to enable the test sample and diluent to contact each other. Mixing of the test sample and diluent is accomplished by moving the test sample and diluent back and forth in the mixing chamber without physical agitation of the mixing chamber and without any mixing element in the mixing chamber. Such movement is accomplished by alternate suction and vacuum forces imposed on the fluid in the mixing chamber. <IMAGE>
