Inventor: GOLOVAN SERGUEI
IPC: C12N9/16
Filed: 2000-04-20
Abstract: L'invention concerne un animal transgénique possédant dans son génome une structure de transgène destinée à l'expression d'une protéine spécifique au tractus gastro-intestinal. Dans un mode de réalisation préféré, la protéine est une phytase ou un homologue de celle-ci. Ces protéines peuvent être hétérologues et peuvent être exprimées spécifiquement dans la glande salivaire d'un animal par une liaison fonctionnelle entre la séquence d'acide nucléique codant la protéine avec une séquence de régulation comprenant un promoteur / une région activatrice de la protéine de glande salivaire. L'invention concerne aussi des procédés pour exprimer et produire des protéines, qui sont fondés sur ces structures d'acides nucléiques. En outre, elle concerne des anticorps spécifiques à ces protéines et des kits diagnostiques immunologiques.

Title: System and method for reducing channel reassignment delays
Inventor: LINDSKOG JAN
IPC: H04W56/00
Filed: 2000-03-28
Abstract: The present invention provides a system and method for reducing the delay in reassigning a mobile station to a new channel in those instances where the new channel is synchronous with the old channel. According to exemplary embodiments of the present invention, a base station transmits, in a channel reassignment message to a mobile station, channel synchronization information that notifies the mobile station whether or not the new channel to which the mobile station is to tune is synchronous with the old channel from which the mobile station is transferred. As a result, performance of a channel synchronization operation can be avoided in those instances where synchronous channels exist.

Title: Method and system for a real-time distributed navigation system
Inventor: JIN HAIPING
IPC: G08G1/005
Filed: 2000-09-27
Abstract: An Interactive Real-Time Distributed Navigation system is disclosed. In the present invention a user's location is determined by generating a position signal at the user's location. Through wireless communication between the user and distributed navigation servers, the user is presented with a list of candidate locations (102). The user's choice from the candidate list (102) are then used by the navigation servers to obtain an accurate measurement of the user's location. Having established a user's location, the system proceeds to provide navigational prompts (106) to the user to reach a final destination.
Patent CA-2385344-A1 (CA)
Title: Data transfer method and apparatus
Inventor: BOND TRACY ARTHUR
IPC: H04L29/06
Filed: 2002-05-08
Abstract: A method and apparatus are disclosed that allow a user to transfer relatively large files, such as full motion video, over a dedicated link with improved efficiency. Relatively cost effective high-speed TCP/IP links are available. However latency issues with TCP/IP prevents their use for transferring large files, especially full motion video for viewing in real time. The present method and apparatus establishes a multi-channel pipeline within the high-speed link from a source node to a target node. A desired file resident on a server of source node is first parsed into chunks of predetermined size appended with a sequence number and placed into circular buffer. The circular buffer is emptied into a next available channel in the multi-channel pipeline established in the high-speed link. The TCP/IP socket channels transfer chunks from the source node to the target node and acknowledge each chunk and then allow circular buffer to transfer the next available chunk. The target node stores the incoming chunks in circular buffer then transfers them in the file assembler into memory in dependence upon the sequence number. Once the file is reassembled it is transferred to server and made available to end user. Advantageously, a more cost effective link may be used for transfer of relatively large files. This technique may also be applied to access networks.

Patent CA-2396580-A1 (CA)
Title: Rotary mill
Inventor: STEED WILLIAM G
IPC: B02C13/288
Filed: 2000-01-06
Abstract: A rotary mill for reduction of ore to particles is described. The rotary mill comprises a primary reduction chamber, a secondary reduction chamber and an outlet chamber. Material entering the primary reduction chamber is deflected by an impact rotor, which shatters the material and sends the resulting particles into a plurality of shatter bars. The shatter bars further reduce these particles and deflect them back towards the rotor so that the reduced particles encounter newly shattered material, causing further attrition. In addition, the rotary mill includes an exhaust fan arranged to generate an airflow from the primary reduction chamber, through the secondary reduction chamber and into the outlet chamber. This airflow carries the reduced particles into the secondary reduction chamber wherein the particles are thrown against reduction means. The reduction means are positioned between the secondary reduction chamber and the outlet chamber such that only particles below a certain size enter the outlet chamber. Material of sufficiently reduced size enters the outlet chamber wherein it is separated into fine particles and heavier particles.  Specifically, the heavier particles fall out of the airflow and gather at the base of the outlet chamber until a sufficient weight accumulates to open the balance door which expels the heavy material from the rotary mill.
