Abstract: Methods are provided for treating or prophylactically preventing metabolic disorders in humans without causing, promoting, or aggravating fluid retention, peripheral edema, pulmonary edema, or congestive heart failure, by administration of a therapeutically effective amount of a compound sufficient to partially or fully activate peroxisome proliferator activated receptors (PPARs) and partially or fully inhibit, antagonize or block the activity of angiotensin II type 1 receptors. Metabolic disorders that can be treated or prevented include but are not limited to type 2 diabetes, the metabolic syndrome, prediabetes, and other insulin resistance syndromes. Compounds are provided that antagonize or block the angiotensin 11 type 1 (AT1) receptor, function as partial or full activators of peroxisome proliferator activated receptors (PPARs), can be used to treat or prevent diseases known to be treatable or preventable by PPAR activators and were not previously recognized to be therapeutic targets for angiotensin Il receptor antagonists.

Abstract: A touch pad (101) includes transducers (201-204) for receiving acoustic signals resulting from touch events, such as the continuous movement of a fingertip across the surface (105) of the touch pad. The acoustic signals are acquired at different transducer locations in the surface. Signals from different transducers are combined, preferably in antiphase, to improve signal characteristics. The transducer signals are supplied to a stereo analogue to digital converter (407). Phase differences (706) are obtained and compared (703) with phase difference profiles (607) of known location, in order to identify the location of the touch event. An index (606) is used to identify candidate locations to reduce the amount of processing. Interpolation (705) is used to locate the touch event between profile locations.

Abstract: L'invention concerne une architecture de test d'alimentation pour des sous-systèmes intégrés, où chaque sous-système intégré peut avoir au moins une alimentation interne en tension pouvant être testée. Une pluralité de sous-systèmes intégrés est organisée en groupes, chaque groupe de sous-systèmes partageant une ligne de test commune de tension reliée à l'alimentation interne en tension des sous-systèmes. En conséquence, les tensions internes collectives de chaque groupe peuvent être testées en parallèle. Un signal de commande de puissance peut invalider l'alimentation interne en tension de la totalité des sous-systèmes afin de permettre l'application d'une énergie externe aux lignes communes de test de tension. En variante, les sous-systèmes dans chaque groupe peuvent être testés séquentiellement de telle sorte que chaque sous-système validé du groupe possède un accès spécialisé à sa ligne commune de test de tension. Suivant un tel principe, des signaux spécialisés de commande de puissance sont utilisés pour invalider indépendamment chaque sous-système des groupes.
