IPC: G06F17/50
Filed: 2005-05-05
Abstract: A method for improving drilling performance of a drilling tool assembly is disclosed. The method includes identifying a drilling performance parameter to be improved. One or more potential solutions (520) are defined to improve the drilling performance parameter. A drilling simulation (530) is performed to determine the dynamic response of the drilling tool assembly during a drilling operation.

Title: Medium for growing human embryonic stem cells
Inventor: LEBKOWSKI JANE S
IPC: C12N5/02
Filed: 2005-07-13
Abstract: This disclosure provides an improved system for deriving culturing human pluripotent stem cells. Traditionally, pluripotent stem cells are cultured on a layer of mouse embryonic fibroblast feeder cells to prevent them from differentiating. In the system described here, the role of feeder cells is replaced by defined components added to the culture environment that support rapid proliferation without differentiation. The medium contains an isotonic buffer, a blend of essential nutrients such as protein and lipids, and an effective growth factor or combination of factors that promote proliferation while inhibiting differentiation. Culturing human embryonic stem cells in fresh medium on an extracellular matrix according to this invention causes the cells to expand surprisingly rapidly, while retaining the ability to differentiate into cells representing all three embryonic germ layers. This new culture system allows for bulk proliferation of pPS cells for commercial production of important products for use in drug screening and human therapy.

Title: Memory efficient ldpc decoding methods and apparatus
Inventor: RICHARDSON TOM
IPC: H03M13/03
Filed: 2005-08-01
Abstract: Methods and apparatus for implementing memory efficient LDPC decodes are described. In accordance with the invention message information is stored in a compressed state (310) for check node processing operations. The state for a check node (321) is fully updated and then subject to an extraction process (316) to generate check node to variable node messages. The signs of messages received from valiable nodes may be stored by the check node processor module (312) of the invention for use in message extraction. The check node processor (308) can process messages in variable node order (304) thereby allowing the valiable node processor and check node processor to operate on messages in the same order reducing or eliminating the need to buffer and/or reorder messages passed between check nodes and variable nodes.

The electrical device is temporarily inoperable and can not resume normal operation until the power control device is unlocked.
Patent CA-2581194-A1 (CA)
Inventor: VAN SLYKE JOHN PORTER
IPC: H04M11/00
Filed: 2005-09-27
Abstract: A method is provided that can be used for modifying a control parameter associated with a digital subscriber line (DSL) service. Initially, a real-time performance parameter is received from a first termination unit that is coupled to an DSL circuit. The real-time performance parameter is measured at the termination unit after the termination unit is provisioned and after the DSL circuit is placed in-service. A value of a control parameter associated with the DSL circuit can be modified based on the measured real-time performance parameter. Further, activity over the DSL circuit can be monitored in real-time and when usage of the DSL circuit is below a threshold, the provisionable service parameter that corresponds to the control parameter is modified. Moreover, a first re-provisioning cycle between the first termination unit and a second termination unit coupled to the DSL circuit can be initiated using the provisionable service parameter.

Filed: 2006-04-27
Abstract: The described devices are useful in the field of ophthalmology. The devices and methods for using them involve separating or lifting corneal epithelium from the eye in a substantially continuous layer to form a flap or pocket. In particular, the devices generally utilize a non- cutting separator or dissector that is configured to separate the epithelium at naturally occurring cleavage surfaces in the eye, particularly between the epithelium and the corneal stroma (Bowman's membrane), specifically separating in the region of the lamina lucida. The dissector may oscillate during the noted separation.  The separator or dissector may also have a structure that expands the epithelial pocket after formation. Independently, the separator or dissector may also include structure that alone or in combination with various energy sources, reforms the underlying cornea in a refractive procedure or treats other maladies. After such steps, the epithelium tissue member may then be replaced on the cornea or onto an ocular lens after placement of that ocular lens on the eye.
