Abstract: A class, of data objects, enterprise data objects ("EDOs"), fully encapsulate all details of updating or retrieving host data for use in an application. EDOs make data available from a wide range of environments, including screen-based host data, customer information control system ("CICS") transactions, and database-sourced data. The EDO, a reusable distributed object, hides the details of data access, navigation paths, transition identifications, default input values, and security information, behind a transaction-oriented programming model. The EDO relays information from the host data source to a client application and back to the host. Because of the functionality built into the EDO, programmers may work in terms of EDO properties and methods instead of fields on a host screen, for example.      Programmers may also create compound EDOs that combine more than one underlying system, as well as hiding from the programmer any underlying requests from one system to another.

Title: Method of treating interstitial cystitis with recombinant heparin-binding epidermal growth factor-like growth factor (hb-egf)
Inventor: WARREN JOHN
IPC: A61K48/00
Filed: 1999-04-16
Abstract: Interstitial cystitis (IC) is a chronic bladder disease for which the exact etiology is unknown and for which there is no reliably effective treatment.  However, it is known that the bladder epithelium is often abnormal in IC. We discovered that human bladder epithelial cells from both normal controls and IC patients are inhibited from proliferating by an anti-proliferative factor (APF) present in IC urine specimens. Inhibited proliferation may cause eptithelium abnormalities characteristic of IC such as ulcerations and multiple tears in the bladder epithelium. We further discovered that 1) levels of heparin binding - epidermal growth factor-like growth factor (HB-EGF), a factor known to be important for epithelial cell proliferation and wound healing in other tissues, are abnormally low in the urine of patients suffering from IC as compared to asymptomatic controls or patients with acute bacterial cystitis; 2) the APF found in IC urine specimens inhibits HB-EGF  production by bladder epithelial cells; and 3) that the administration of rHB-EGF blocks the effects of APF on bladder epithelial cells from either IC  patients or controls. The invention herein is directed to the administration of HB-EGF, or a functional derivative or agonist thereof, to bladder epithelial cells to inhibit the effects of APF on bladder cell proliferation, thereby reducing or eliminating the chronic damage to the bladder epithelium.  HB-EGF or a functional derivative may be used as a therapy for patients suffering from IC or other diseases characterized by inhibited epithelial cell proliferation.

Inventor: DAVIES STEPHEN WILLIAM
IPC: H04W68/00
Filed: 2001-01-10
Abstract: Paging areas aligned with wireless terminals are dynamically created. A first base station passes to the wireless terminal a list of all the base stations that it knows and are within a prescribed number of handoffs of the first base station. The wireless terminal uses this list to define its own "personal" paging area. Each time the wireless terminal emerges from a sleep state, it listens for the base station having the best signal and compares its identification against the list of base stations in its personal paging area. If the best signal base station is on the list, any paging messages for the wireless terminal are automatically broadcast by that base station. Otherwise, the wireless terminal must conduct a handoff to that base station to obtain a new personal paging area centered on that base station with that base station as paging agent. Messages originating elsewhere in the network are forwarded to the paging agent for delivery to the wireless terminal. The paging agent then instructs all known base stations within prescribed number of handoffs of it to page the wireless terminal. The wireless terminal, on hearing the page, will form a connection with the base station having the best signal for communicating. The base station having the best signal for communicating notifies the paging agent that it has established a connection with the wireless terminal, which leaves paging mode and becomes active.
