Title: A method and apparatus for enhancing the soil structure of land
Inventor: LESKIW LEONARD
IPC: A01B35/10
Filed: 2009-09-01
Abstract: A method of enhancing the soil structure of land having a topsoil layer and a subsoil layer beneath the topsoil layer includes providing at least one subsoil tiller blade having a tilling surface and a bottom end, and a channel positioned behind the tilling surface of the subsoil tiller blade for injecting nutrients toward the bottom end of the subsoil tiller blade. The subsoil tiller blade is inserted into the land such that the bottom end extends into the subsoil layer. The subsoil tiller blade is driven through the land such that the tilling surface loosens the subsoil layer while the channel deposits nutrients into the subsoil layer.

Abstract: The present invention relates to cellular radio communication and in particular to providing information on neighbour cells to enable terminals to perform neighbour cell measurements. In the prior art the terminal attempts to make neighbour cell measurements in a reference signal structure that is the same in the neighbour cell as in the cell the terminal camps in. The present invention is based on the insight that the reference signal structure may differ between neighbouring cell for example in the situation of an MBSFN area that is restricted to a region of all cells of a radio network, or in the situation of TDD mode being applied there may be different regions with different allocation of sub-frames for transmission in the uplink and downlink directions. The present invention solves the problem by broadcast information in a cell indicative of the reference signal structure in neighbour cells.

Abstract: A system and method is provided which allows for the dynamic interpretation of a transport block size field in a Layer I/Layer 2 (L1/L2) control channel, such that for any first H-ARQ transmission, the transport block size indication field will indicate the size of the transport block. For any retransmission, the transport block size indication bits can be transformed into dedicated bits for indicating the RV used as it relates to circular buffering. A robust bit field for indicating new data transmission (e,g, new data indication (NDI)) is therefore introduced, and from a UE perspective it is possible to determine how to interpret the transport block size field.

Abstract: An illustrative embodiment of a computer-implemented process for software object lock management using observations, loads a class containing class information for a state and a lock count, allocates an instance of an object using the class information for the state to form an instance, receives a lock request associated with the instance, and selects a runtime behavior associated with the instance according to the class information. The computer-implemented process determines whether the lock count is greater than a threshold value, and responsive to a determination that the lock count is not greater than a threshold value, sets the class information for the state to non-locking and removes a lock field from the instance.

Inventor: ABU-RAHMA MOHAMED H
IPC: G11C7/12
Filed: 2008-12-15
Abstract: A memory device utilizes selective precharge and charge sharing to reduce a bit line voltage before accessing a bit cell (34). A reduction in bit line voltage is achieved by precharging different sections (31, 33) of the bit line to different voltages (e.g., a supply voltage and ground) and using charge sharing between these sections.  Read stability improves as a result of the reduction of bit line voltage. The relative capacitance difference (B2-C2) between bit line sections determines the bit line voltage after charge sharing. Thus, the memory device is tolerant to process or temperature variations. The bit line voltage may be controlled in design by selecting the sections that are precharged to supply voltage or ground.
