IPC: A61L27/50
Filed: 1996-04-18
Abstract: A method of treating a collagenous biomaterial, such as porcine aortic valve leaflets or bovine pericardium, by exposing the biomaterial to an alcohol to inhibit in vivo calcification. The biomaterial, preferably glutaraldehyde-pretreated, is subjected to an aqueous solution of 60% to 80% lower aliphatic alcohol, such as ethanol for a period of at least 20 minutes, and preferably, 24 to 72 hours. The biomaterial is rinsed, and then stored in either a glutaraldehyde-free environment or an ethanolic solution of glutaraldehyde. In some embodiments, the treatment solutions include an additional anticalcification agent which may be a soluble salt of a metallic cation, such as Al+3 or Fe+3.

Inventor: SPRUNK ERIC
IPC: H04N7/167
Filed: 1998-01-26
Abstract: Methods and apparatus for providing cryptographic keys for cryptographically processing information are provided. Means are provided for receiving a first cryptographic signal. Means responsive to said first cryptographic signal are provided for generating the cryptographic key. The cryptographic key has an associated first work factor for a person without knowledge of said first cryptographic signal. The cryptographic key also has an associated second work factor which is smaller than the first work factor for a person with knowledge of the first cryptographic signal. Thus, the work factor of the key can be reduced to a level which is small enough to satisfy governmental export or import requirements without reducing the protection level or strength of the system. A single cryptographic key generator (engine) can be easily adapted for use in different countries, where different work factors are required.

Title: System and method for autonomous interaction among neighboring sensors in a network of sensors
IPC: G01S19/21
Filed: 2006-08-31
Abstract: Sensors in a network each have a geographical location and they each periodically broadcast this information to all the sensors in the network. Each receiving sensors then builds a list of sensors (neighbor list) that are closest to that sensor by computing the distance between itself and the other sensors. This list can then be used along with a decision algorithm to decide whether that sensor should act or perform a command when it receives a message from other sensors. In one embodiment, a sensor can use the neighbor list to command a specific other sensor(s) to perform a specific function.

Title: Configuring telecommunications terminals to use services
IPC: H04M1/72406
Filed: 2008-09-05
Abstract: A telecommunications network includes means (30) for collecting and recording data relating to services used by a user of the network, and means (32) for configuring a user terminal to use services based on the recorded service data. The configuring means (32) may configure the user terminal IA automatically. For example, the configuring means (32) may comprise an inference algorithm (38) which analyses the recorded service data and predicts how the terminal IA should be configured, and then automatically configures the user terminal IA automatically with possibly no input from the user. Alternatively, the configuration means (32) may configure the user terminal IA by prompting the user to make selections based on the recorded service data. The collecting means (30) may be operable to collect the service data in relation to services used by the user using a device other than the user terminal IA. For example, this other device might be device (1) used previously to obtain services. The collecting means (30) collects a history of data relating to the use of services by this other device (1). When the user changes to a new device (the user tenuinal IA), this collected data can be used to configure the user terminal IA in an automatic or assisted manner. The service data may include service settings, authentication data, user preferences and/or information relating to the storage location of applications to be used by the terminal (from which the applications may be downloaded).

Title: Light emitting diode scanner
IPC: G02B26/10
Filed: 1991-06-06
Abstract: A portable scanning head emits and receives light from a light-emitting diode (10) to read symbols, such as bar-code symbols.
