Title: Method and apparatus for uplink transmission timing in a mobile communications system
Inventor: BARK GUNNAR
IPC: H04L1/00
Filed: 2003-04-15
Abstract: A radio network provides centralized load control in order to control uplink interference in a cell while at the same time permitting adaptation to fast channel variations. The radio network sends to a mobile terminal a percentage of time that the mobile terminal may transmit over a radio channel in the uplink direction to the radio network. The mobile determines a current or future condition of the radio channel and restricts uplink transmissions based on the received percentage and the radio channel condition. Transmissions are restricted to times when the current or future condition is favorable up to the percentage amount. Channel condition favorability may be determined by the mobile station, in one example embodiment, by comparing the radio channel condition to an average condition of the channel, such as a local or moving average channel condition. Also in an example embodiment, the mobile may determine a current or future channel condition using transmit power control commands received from the radio network.

Title: Oral care compositions comprising dicarboxy functionalized polyorganosiloxanes
Inventor: KOVACS STEPHEN ANDRAS
IPC: A61Q11/00
Filed: 2003-05-09
Abstract: Disclosed are compositions and methods for treating and modifying surfaces and for enhancing delivery of active agents to surfaces treated with the compositions, which comprise siloxane polymers functionalized with pendant moieties comprising anionic groups, specifically carboxylic acid groups. When applied to a suitable surface, the present composition comprising the carboxy functionalized siloxane polymers forms a substantially hydrophobic coating on the treated surface. These polymers effectively deposit on surfaces that have cationic sites, which are capable of forming bonds or linkages with the anionic groups of the polymer. The treated surface becomes hydrophobic due to the deposition of the carboxy functionalized siloxane polymer, which then imparts a variety of end use benefits to that surface such as ease of cleaning, stain removal and prevention, whitening, etc. The carboxy functionalized siloxane polymer further acts as a carrier to deposit active agents onto the surface and to improve retention and efficacy of said actives on the treated surface. The present compositions are useful in a variety of applications including oral care, hair and skin care, personal care, cosmetics, and fabric and hard surface cleaning and conditioning. Examples are oral compositions for use in cleaning and whitening of natural teeth and dental prosthesis; for preventing, reducing or removing plaque, calculus and surface deposited stains on teeth; and for providing shine, smoothness and positive feel benefits to teeth, the compositions comprising at least about 0.1% by weight of a dicarboxy functionalized siloxane polymer in a formulation that effectively deposits the polymer to teeth and other oral surfaces.

Title: Quality of service routing for mobile ad hoc networks
Inventor: BILLHARTZ TOM
IPC: H04L12/28
Filed: 2003-04-28
Abstract: The method includes transmitting a quality-of-service (QoS) route request to discover routing based upon a QoS parameter, and the route request including a flow identifier and a QoS link metric. Furthermore, the method includes each intermediate node determining whether the node can support the requested QoS parameter and, if so, updating the QoS link metric, forwarding the QoS route request, and temporarily reserving node resources. The destination node, upon receiving the QoS route request, generates a reply including the flow identifier and updated QoS link metric for each discovered route, and the source node generates QoS route metrics based upon updated QoS link metrics in the replies. Also, the source node selects a route to the destination node based upon the QoS route metrics, and transmits route confirmations to intermediate nodes on the selected route.

Title: Procede et compositions a base de microemulsion & émulsion submicronique

IPC: B01F23/80
Filed: 2005-08-31
Abstract: L’invention concerne un procédé de fabrication d’une composition à base de microémulsion ou émulsion submicronique d’huile dans l’eau (O/W) pour administration cutanée d’au moins un ingrédient pharmaceutiquement actif, le procédé comprenant les phases suivantes a) mélange par addition d’une première partie comprenant au moins un élément du groupe consistant en huiles animales, minérales ou végétales, silanes, siloxanes, esters, acides gras, graisses, composés d’halogène ou alcools alcoxylés ; et un ou plusieurs tensioactifs lipophiles, et une seconde partie englobant de l’eau et au moins un tensioactif hydrophile pour obtenir une certaine homogénéité, b) chauffage du mélange de la phase a) à une température d’assemblage de phase dans la fourchette de 40 à 99°C, de préférence de 45 à 95°C, idéalement de 65 à 85°C avec un mélange continu pour obtenir une microémulsion ou une émulsion submicronique, c) permettre à ladite microémulsion ou ladite émulsion submicronique de refroidir, et d) addition d’une troisième partie à ladite microémulsion ou ladite émulsion submicronique à une température entre 2°C et ladite température d’assemblage de phase, ladite troisième partie si nécessaire étant prémélangée et chauffée jusqu’à la dissolution des composants et comprenant au moins un composant sélectionné parmi le groupe consistant en un composé de type amphiphile sans tensioactif, un tensioactif et de l’eau sous réserve que si la troisième partie contient de l’eau, elle contient également un composé de type amphiphile sans tensioactif et/ou un tensioactif. La température d’assemblage de phase peut être déterminée visuellement par la translucidité dans la composition ou bien par des mesures comme des pics de conductivité, avant d’être maintenue à un plateau pendant l’assemblage de phase. Il est apparu que si l’on ajoute un composé de type amphiphile sans tensioactif comme le polyol, à la seconde partie comme cela serait le cas normalement, il n’y a pas de formation de microémulsion ou d’émulsion submicronique, alors qu’en ajoutant ce que l’on appelle la troisième partie, l’assemblage de phase se produit à une température plus basse que prévue et de plus, cette phase semble contribuer à maintenir les caractéristiques de microémulsion et d’émulsion submicronique de la formulation pendant un stockage à des températures normales.

IPC: C12N15/67
Filed: 2006-12-18
Abstract: Quiescence is induced in cells using indole compounds. Expression continues from extra-chromosomal vectors within the cells during quiescence, while chromosomal expression is suppressed. The cells may be used as factories for the production of large amounts of polypeptides of interest, particularly polypeptides which normally have an adverse effect on cell viability or growth. Expression from an extra-chromosomal vector of interest may be monitored, in view of the reduced background expression from the chromosome. Vector copy number may be amplified. Cell cycles may be synchronized.
