Title: Optimized network resource location
Inventor: FARBER DAVID A
IPC: G06F17/30
Filed: 2001-05-22
Abstract: Resource requests made by clients of origin servers in a network are intercepted by reflector mechanisms and selectively reflected to other servers called repeaters.

Patent HK-1053215-A1 (HK)
Title: Method for performing radio resource level registration in a wireless communication system
Inventor: JAIN AVINASH
IPC: H04W8/26
Filed: 2003-07-23
Abstract: Techniques to reduce the amount of registration required by a mobile station in a wireless communication system, especially if the registration zones are defined to be small areas. In one scheme, a mobile station registers (e.g., at R-level) with a network entity (e.g., a base station) each time it enters a new registration zone, which can correspond to an R-TMSI zone defined by GSM MC-MAP. The mobile station maintains a timer for each zone with which it has already registered but has since left. If the mobile station leaves a particular zone for a period longer than a time-out period, the registration with that zone times out, and the mobile station re-registers with that zone whenever it re-enters the zone. The mobile station may implement zone-based, timer-based, implicit, traffic channel RR, and some other registrations, or a combination thereof. Parameters to facilitate registration may be defined by a base station.

Title: Method and system for determining the acceptabiility of signal data collected from a prothrombin time test strip
Inventor: KERMANI MAHYAR Z
IPC: G01N33/86
Filed: 2004-06-14
Abstract: A method for determining the acceptability of signal data collected from a prothrombin time (PT) test strip includes collecting PT signal data from an assay area and control areas of the PT test strip. Relationships between PT signal data collected from the assay area and PT signal data collected from each of the control areas (e.g., a ratio of post-peak pseudo-slopes) are then ascertained. A determination is subsequently made, based on the relationships, as to whether the PT signal data collected from the assay area is acceptable or not for use in calculating a PT and/or an International Normalization Ratio (INR). This determination can include, for example, comparing the relationships to at least one predetermined threshold limit. A prothrombin time (PT) monitoring system includes a PT test strip and a device. The PT test strip includes an assay area and a control area. The device (e.g., a portable hand-held meter) includes an optical measurement means (e.g., an LED/photo-detector pair) for measuring an optical property (e.g., absorption) of the assay area and control areas, an analog-to-digital converter module, a microprocessor module and a memory module. The optical measurement means, analog-to-digital converter module, microprocessor module and memory module are adapted to (i) collect PT signal data from the assay area and control areas; (ii) ascertain at least one relationship between PT signal data collected from the assay and control areas and (iii) determine, based on the at least one relationship, whether the PT signal data collected from the assay area is acceptable. <IMAGE>

Title: Method for streaming data between a server and a client
Inventor: JOSEPH WARREN
IPC: H04L12/58
Filed: 2004-12-14
Abstract: A system and method for improved client and server communications, more particularly, an improved protocol that may be used for communication between a client and a server, such as in an email environment. A request sent by an email client component may indicate no limit for the size of a response to the request, allowing an email server component to fill a buffer, if needed. The email client component sends a plurality of subrequests within a request, each of the subrequests requesting an operation at an email server component and including size information. In response to each subrequest, if the size information includes a size limit inside a range expected by the email server component, then the email server component limits a response to the size limit. If the size information includes a size limit outside a range expected by the email server component, then the email server component looks for a new size limit in the size information. The new size limit may be arbitrary, such as "fill the available buffer".
