Title: A system and method for modifying output of a computer program without source code modifications
Inventor: SULLIVAN ANDREW
IPC: G06F40/00
Filed: 2000-12-14
Abstract: A system and method for modifying the output of a computer program without source code modification. A computer program reads in two files, an input data file and a recipe text file. The data input file contains name/value pairs to be rendered to an output device and the recipe text file contains the formatting descriptions. The name/value pairs of the data input file need not be arranged according to a required structure. During the execution of the program, the formatting descriptions of the recipe text file are converted into a sequence of executable objects and the name/value pairs from the data input file are rendered in a format according to these formatting descriptions. A coordinated alteration of the input text file and the recipe text file will result in a modification to the output format.

Patent CA-2397607-A1 (CA)
Inventor: MANN CARLA M
IPC: A61N1/36
Filed: 2000-12-18
Abstract: A neural stimulation system (10) allows the magnitude of electrical stimuli generated by the system to be programmed to a desired level greater than or equal to a minimum perceived threshold and less than or equal to a maximum tolerable perceived threshold. The electrical stimuli are applied through selected groupings of individual electrode contacts (42a, 42b, 42c,...) of a multi-electrode-contact electrode array (40) attached to pulse generation circuitry (30) as either cathodes or anodes. The electrode array (40) is implanted so that the individual electrode contacts are in contact with the body tissue (44) to be stimulated. Stimulating electrical current pulses, defined by a prescribed set of stimulus parameters are generated and applied to the selected electrode contacts so as to flow from the anode electrodes to the cathode electrodes. The perceived magnitude of the applied stimuli is equalized (FIG. 3B) in order to enable quick, automated, and/or interactive programming of the values of the stimulation parameters.
