Abstract: A data transmission system with one transmitter or several transmitters having the same design and one receiver or several receivers having the same design is disclosed for transmitting data through a common transmission channel, as well as a process for initialising the system and for synchronising the transmitter(s) and receiver(s). Each transmitter has an address memory in which an identification address may be stored. Each receiver has an address memory in which the addresses of the transmitters may be stored. The data are transmitted in packets. Each transmitter send its data packets within its own characteristic time intervals and each receiver can receive the data packets from one or several transmitters. Transmitters and receivers are provided with corresponding means for initialising a system composed of one or several transmitters and receivers. The initialising means make it possible to initialise the system manually or automatically upon instruction by a user. Thanks to this initialisation the system determines which transmitter(s) are allocated to a receiver, i.e. which transmitters and which receivers belong to a certain system, and what is the length of the characteristic time intervals within which each transmitter transmits data. Each transmitter and each receiver preferably has a control circuit with timing means which activate the transmitters only at their transmission times and which activate the receivers substantially only at the transmission times of one or several transmitters in order to save energy.

Abstract: The lifetime probability of a woman developing breast cancer can now be determined based on an allelic variation found in the 3'UTR of the prohibitin gene. The probability is dependent on the sequence of the 3'UTR at position 729, i.e., whether there is a thymine (T) or a cytosine (C) or both at this position. Polymorphism at position 729 is also disclosed as a susceptibility indicator for hereditary breast cancer in men. Determining the sequence at the position 729 can be done by any number of standard techniques. Preferably, the sequence is determined by amplifying this region by PCR and subjecting it to an RFLP analysis.

Abstract: An apparatus for changing bandwidth loading by a bandwidth change amount in a communications interface having elastic and non-elastic call connections where the elastic and non-elastic call connections have associated current cell rates and equivalent cell rates respectively. The apparatus includes a processor programmed to determine whether the bandwidth change amount is negative or positive. When the bandwidth change amount is negative the processor reduces the current cell rate of each elastic connection and releases at least some non-elastic connections such that the current cell rate of each elastic connection is reduced and the non-elastic connections are released until the total of the current cell rates of the elastic connections and the equivalent cell rates of the non-elastic connections have been reduced by at least the bandwidth change amount. When the bandwidth change amount is positive, the processor increase the current cell rate of each elastic connection and restores non-elastic connections. <IMAGE>

Abstract: An apparatus and method are provided for mixing gas and liquid. An impeller is rotatably mounted inside a draft tube. Inlet baffles are mounted adjacent the inlet end of the draft tube in close proximity to the impeller. In addition, outlet baffles are mounted adjacent the outlet end of the draft tube in close proximity to the impeller. Rotation of the impeller draws liquid down through the draft tube and creates vortices which serve to entrain gas into the liquid. The provision of inlet and outlet baffles directly adjacent the rotating impeller produces high gas entrainment and shear rates and improves gas transfer efficiency. The gas-liquid vortex mixer is particularly suitable for treating industrial and municipal waste water, as well as various other liquids. Gases such as air, oxygen, hydrogen, and the like are efficiently dissolved in such liquids during operation of the gas-liquid vortex mixer.

Abstract: The invention relates to delivery of short messages to mobile stations and particularly to delivery of short messages in mobility-supporting packet radio networks that use a mobile communications network as an access network, to a dual-mode mobile station in a situation where the mobile station is not reachable in the packet radio network. The object of the invention is to minimize unnecessary signalling. The invention is based on the fact that parameters controlling the network elements are inserted into the signalling messages and a flag indicating the state of the mobile station is inserted into the home location register. The method and radio network of the invention, the signalling messages may contain parameters by means of which 1) delivery of a short message through the secondary network is prevented, 2) information on the fact that an attempt was made to reach the mobile station but the attempt was not successful is sent to the node of the secondary network, 3) the node of the secondary network is prevented from informing the home location register of the mobile station of the attach of the mobile station to the network, 4) information is sent to the home location register on the fact that the mobile station cannot be reached through the primary network, and 5) information is sent to the gateway mobile switching center for short message service on the fact that the mobile station can be reached through the primary network even though the short message was delivered through the secondary network.
