Abstract: By linking together mobile telephony systems having small message service capacity and payment clearance systems such as those operated by banks and credit card companies, substantial facilitation of electronic payments may be achieved. Existing security systems designed to protect the mobile telephony system, for example SIM cards and optional encryption provide a base level of transaction security which may be enhanced by suitable programming to require the use of a PIN to validate a transaction. By linking such systems with e.g. ATMs, the usefulness of a mobile telephone, where each assigned telephone number essentially functions as a player identity number (or, in certain enhancements, as an account number), substantial transaction economies can be achieved without compromising security, with excellent audit trail features and with automatically generated confirmations and acknowledgements.

Abstract: An area is divided into regions or cells each having an associated multicast group address. The cells are organized using a quad-tree data structure that is dynamically updated. Mobile entities within a given cell elect one of their members as coordinator for assessing cost data associated with subdividing or merging the cell with other sibling cells. The coordinators communicate this cost data to a partitioning entity, which may be a central server, that computes a new partition scheme using a greedy algorithm. The new partition scheme is then broadcast to the mobile entities for use in subsequent communication. Mobile entities join multicast groups that intersect with their individual vision domains. In this way, mobile entities can acquire information from other mobile entities without the need to monitor all multicast group transmissions. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The present invention relates to disposable cigarette lighters which have a latch member which is intended to resist inadvertent operation and to make undesirable operation by unintended operators more difficult. The lighter preferably includes a latch member which in its initial condition blocks movement of the actuator in order to resist operation of the lighter. The latch member is movable to a ready position so that the actuator may be depressed in order to produce a flame. It is preferred that the lighter contain additional or alternative forces on the latch member to improve the ability of the latch member to return to the blocking position over the life of the lighter and to improve the consistency of the latch member's movement and return. In some of the embodiments, this additional or alternative force is provided by a bending moment or flexing force preferably applied to the latch member through a flexing mechanism to flex the latch along at least a portion of its length. Alternatively or in addition to, a biasing member may assist in returning the latch member to the initial position over the life of the lighter and improve the consistency of the latch force.

Abstract: A recursive VHDL compiler and a method of designing a logic circuit to be manufactured by means of a VHDL compiler. The method is adapted for designing hardware logic circuits that perform recursive computations. According to the design method, an indexing parameter is established. For values of the indexing parameter extending from a desired value to a minimum value, a recursive logic circuit is defined for a current value of the indexing parameter as interconnections between predefined logic circuits and one or more instances of the recursive logic circuit with the indexing parameter less than the current value. A base logic circuit is also defined for the minimum value of the indexing parameter. The definitions of the recursive logic circuits and base logic circuits are then processed for the desired value of the indexing parameter to produce a definition of the recursive logic circuit for the desired value of the indexing parameter in terms of predefined logic circuits.

Abstract: The in vivo role of the N-terminal lectin-like domain of thrombomodulin was studied by using homologous recombination in murine ES cells to create mutant mice that lack this region of thrombomodulin. Phenotypic analysis shows that said mice respond identically to their wild type littermates following pro-coagulant challenges meaning that the protein C pathway is not altered by the mutation. However, following several inflammatory stimuli, it was observed that the mutant mice showed an elevated neutrophil extravasation in several organs. It is found that leukocyte adhesion could be abrogated by addition of recombinant lectin-domain meaning that said domain has direct anti-inflammatory properties which means that the lectin-like domain can be used to manufacture a medicament useful for the treatment of a variety of inflammatory disease processes.

Abstract: In a low-vibration V-belt ( 2 ), consisting of at least one load carrier ( 4; 4 a, 4 b) and a plurality of support elements ( 6 ) located thereon, the damping effect is improved. The formation of the damping elements ( 34 ) in a radial direction above the central section and in the direction of the width of the belt substantially symmetrical to the axis of symmetry of the support element ( 6 ) allows both possible transversal vibrations to be simultaneously damped. The damping elements ( 34 ), which consist preferably of elastomer and have high inherent damping properties, can be seated in recesses or bores ( 36 ) of the support elements ( 6 ). The rear faces of the support elements ( 6 ) can have cylindrical counterforms ( 38 ), which correspond in shape and position to the convex damping elements ( 34 ) located on the respective front faces. The edges of the convex parts ( 34 ) have radii or chamfers which permit the corresponding counterparts ( 34, 38 ) to engage without force or impact. The V-belt can be used for the continuously variable speed and torque conversion in automotive applications.

Abstract: A new composition for treating periodontal disease by means of a therapeutic agent delivery device placed within the periodontal pocket so that release of the therapeutic agents occurs in the immediate vicinity of the disease process, without that a release adjusting agent or adhesive agent is present so that biocompatibility or allergic problems cannot arise. A slow release of a therapeutic agent is obtained as well as a mechanical protection on the wounds and a barrier to bacteria. The a composition comprises a therapeutic agent in a biocompatible polymeric material. The therapeutic agent is soluble both in water and in alcohol and the biocompatible polymeric material is a liquid methacrylate copolymer chosen among EUDRAGIT RL or EUDRAGIT RS or a mixture thereof. The polymers are provided as a liquid in an alcoholic suspension, preferably about 95%. When the polymer is spread on a surface, the alcohol evaporates and the polymer forms a polymeric film on that surface. When water present in the mouth tissues permeates through the material, the therapeutic agent is released. By proper selection of the two polymeric material EUDRAGIT RS and RL, a precise release rate is obtained. In fact, by varying the ratio RS/RL the hydrophilic property varies accordingly. In particular, if RL is increased, the release rate of the therapeutic agent is increased.
