Title: Rule based engine for validating financial transactions
Inventor: CHEN YINING
IPC: G06F9/44
Filed: 2001-06-26
Abstract: The present invention provides a method and a system for checking whether customer orders for transactions of financial instruments conform to business logic rules. Executable rule files are created and stored in a repository. New executable rule files can be created by scripting the new business logic rules in a script file which in turn is converted into a corresponding source code file written in a computer programming language. Subsequently, the source code file is compiled to create an individual executable rule file. A rule selection repository is used for containing identification of groups of selected executable rule files. The invention determines the category of the customer order and reads, from the rule selection repository, a group of executable rule files that correspond to the identified category of the customer order. The group of selected executable rule files are executed to check the conformance of the customer order. Execution results are stored in a status repository for subsequent retrieval and analysis.

Title: Coordinating different types of messages sent to mobile radios in a mobile communications system
Inventor: MULLER WALTER
IPC: H04W52/02
Filed: 2000-02-29
Abstract: The present invention coordinates paging, network restriction, and other network-based communications (e.g., mobile measurement requests for O & M) in a mobile telecommunications network. Paging messages, network messages, and other messages may be consolidated in one message so that the mobile need only power up once to retrieve the various information provided in the one message. In one example, non-limiting embodiment, paging groups of mobile stations and network access restriction group of mobile stations are merged into a single set of paging and network access restriction groups to which different mobile stations belong. A mobile station therefore need only process one message in order to be informed about paging and network access restriction information pertinent to that mobile station. In the example mobile groups embodiment, that one message corresponds to its consolidated paging and network access group, and the single paging and network access group message is transmitted during a specified time interval associated with the group. As a result, an idle mobile station belonging to that group need only leave a power savings sleep mode to receive that message during the specified group time interval.  Otherwise, the idle mobile station can return to the power savings sleep mode to conserve its battery life.

Patent CA-2385585-A1 (CA)
Inventor: DION ERNEST
IPC: A61B17/32
Filed: 2000-09-13
Abstract: Techniques are described for making one-piece tubes for surgical instruments in which an inner tube (204) that carries a cutting implement (208) is disposed for movement within an outer tube (200) having a cutting window (206) that exposes the cutting implement to tissue. Swaging is performed to close an end (86) of a tubular member (80) that is to serve as either the inner tube or the outer tube. Other processing steps are also performed. For example, a selected amount of a protrusion (87) formed by swaging is cut away, the tube material is fused together at a seam (89) formed by the swaging, and the closed distal end of the tubular member (80) is formed into a selected shape.  For example, the selected shape is rounded so that the distal end defines convex (e.g., substantially hemispherical) interior and exterior distal surfaces (190). This renders the tube suitable for use in full-radius surgical instruments. Alternatively, the selected shape is flattened so that the distal end defines flattened interior (191') and exterior (190') distal surfaces. In this case, the tube can be used in end cutting surgical instruments.
