Patent EP-1385573-A2 (EP)
Inventor: STRUBLE CHESTER L
IPC: A61N1/362
Filed: 2002-04-26
Abstract: Techniques for pacing the heart of a patient as a function of an intra-cardiac pressure make use of a pressure monitor that receives a pressure signal from a pressure sensor in the patient's right ventricle. The pressure monitor estimates the patient's pulmonary artery diastolic pressure. A rate-responsive pacemaker paces the patient's heart as a function of the estimated pulmonary artery diastolic pressure.
Patent EP-1409707-A2 (EP)
Inventor: KUNTE HANS JOERG
IPC: C12P17/12
Filed: 2002-03-22
Abstract: The invention relates to a method that is suitable for producing useful products, which are usually retained in the interior of cells, in organisms and for obtaining the products from the latter, without destroying the productive organisms. The invention facilities an excess production and excretion into the surrounding medium. This method produces in particular high concentrations of the useful product in the product solution and obtains large quantities of the end products of metabolic pathways, which would normally be limited by feed-back inhibition of synthesis efficiency. The method is characterised in that transport systems produced naturally in the cell for accumulating/retaining said useful products are disabled, or their capacity for accumulating/retaining said useful products is impaired.

Title: Method for measuring the concentration of substances in living organisms using microdialysis and a device for carrying out said method
Inventor: SCHAUPP LUKAS
IPC: A61B5/00
Filed: 2002-07-05
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for measuring the concentration of substances in living organisms using microdialysis, whereby bodily fluid is mixed with a perfusate and passed through a membrane (26) and a substance value is determined for the bodily fluid with the aid of a sensor unit (4). According to the invention, to allow for the limited transport through the membrane (26), so that the measured substance value differs from the actual substance value in the organism, a reference substance present in said organism with a known value is also measured after passing through the membrane (26) and mixing with the perfusate and the actual substance value is determined, based on the quotient from the known reference substance value divided by the measured reference substance value, multiplied by the measured substance value.

Inventor: SCHWINGEL DIRK
IPC: B32B5/18
Filed: 2002-07-25
Abstract: A composite material and method of making the same are disclosed. An example method for fabricating a composite material forms a core layer between opposing outer layers. The core layer includes a mixture of at least one metallic powder and at least one expanding agent. The example method removes moisture and gasses from the core layer by applying a first vacuum pressure to at least the core layer. The example method compresses the core layer to bond the core layer to the outer layers while a second vacuum pressure is applied to at least one of the outer layers. The resulting composite material has a compacted core layer that is substantially free from moisture and imbedded gasses. Additionally, the outer layers are substantially free from perforations enabling the escape of gas and moisture during foaming of the core layer. The composite material may be reshaped to form semi-finished products which, in turn, may be heated to foam the core material to form finished products.

Abstract: A directed vapor deposition (DVD) method and system for applying at least one bond coating on at least one substrate for thermal barrier coating systems. To overcome the limitations incurred by conventional methods, the DVD system uses an electron beam directed vapor deposition (DVD) technique to evaporate and deposit compositionally and morphologically controlled bond coats at high rate. The present DVD system uses the combination of an electron beam and a combined inert gas/reactive gas carrier jet of controlled composition to create engineering films. In this system, the vaporized material can be entrained in the carrier gas jet and deposited onto the substrate at a high rate and with high materials utilization efficiency. The velocity and flux of the gas atoms entering the chamber, the nozzle parameters, and the operating chamber pressure can all be significantly varied, facilitating wide processing condition variation and allowing for improved control over the properties of the deposited layer.

Abstract: A recording apparatus often has a timing to shift
to a standby status if there is no residual paper in
the apparatus, for example, when a power source is
turned on, when the apparatus is recovered from a sleep
mode, when a door is closed, when the power source is
reset, or the like. When the residual paper is
detected in the apparatus at such a timing, the
apparatus is controlled to a proper wait status in
order to discharge the residual paper and waits for an
instruction from the outside. In response to the paper
discharging instruction from the outside, a discharging
operation of the residual paper is executed.

Abstract: A system and method is disclosed for improved session management when roaming between access networks (AN) within a data cellular network, wherein an extended session is established across several ANs within a subnet. When an Access Terminal (AT) initiates a new extended session, the responsible AN negotiates a common session across the ANs covered by the extended session area. During the session negotiation, each AN establishes a new session and allocates a new Unicast Access Terminal Identifier (UATI). Each AN is notified of each UATI allocated for the extended session. Once the negotiation between ANs is completed, the AT can roam anywhere within the extended session area without re-negotiating the session or transferring session information. <IMAGE>

Abstract: La présente invention concerne des systèmes et des procédés qui permettent de mettre en place des charges métalliques factices tout en empêchant la perturbation de l'adaptation du dispositif et éventuellement en limitant l'augmentation de la capacitance. Un procédé automatisé par ordinateur utile pour localiser les charges factices dans un processus de fabrication de circuits intégrés consiste à recevoir le tracé du circuit intégré et la spécification de l'adaptation du dispositif pour le circuit intégré et à localiser les charges factices dans le circuit intégré en fonction de règles de remplissage factice tout en préservant l'adaptation du dispositif. La localisation des charges factices peut consister à localiser les charges factices sur l'axe ou les axes de symétrie où l'adaptation du dispositif se situe le long d'un axe de symétrie et à localiser les charges factices de manière à préserver l'adaptation des éléments répétés où l'adaptation du dispositif formée d'éléments appariés répétés. Le procédé peut également consister à désigner au moins un ensemble du circuit intégré en tant qu'ensemble critique, les ensembles critiques n'étant qu'un sous-ensemble de tous les ensembles du circuit intégré, à identifier les conducteurs métalliques correspondant à chaque ensemble critique désigné extrait du fichier tracé et à délimiter une zone d'exclusion de blocage des ensembles qui s'étend à une distance d'une distance minimum de blocage d'ensembles (NDB) du conducteur métallique pour chaque conducteur métallique identifié, dans laquelle l'étape de localisation repère les charges factices situées en dehors de la zone d'exclusion de blocage des ensembles.
