Abstract: To increase the effective affinity of soluble analogs of peptide/MHC molecules for their cognate ligands, divalent peptide/MHC complexes were constructed. Using a recombinant DNA strategy, DNA encoding the MHC class I was ligated to DNA coding for murine Ig heavy chain. MHC/Ig complexes were exploited to homogeneously load with peptides of interest. The results of flow cytometry demonstrated that the <pep>MHC/Ig complexes bound specifically with high affinity to cells bearing their cognate receptors. <pep>MHC/Ig complexes are also useful in modulating effector functions of antigen-specific T cells. These <pep>MHC/Ig complexes are useful for studying TCR/MHC interactions and lymphocyte tracking and have uses as specific regulators of immune responses.

Abstract: A workpiece is held between a movable clamping element (56) and a stationary clamping element (52). During setup, a hex drive (58) is rotated to move a traveler (100) which is connected to the movable clamping element along a threaded shaft (80). The threaded shaft is supported at one end through a spring retainer nut (88), a spring (86), and a bearing (82). After the movable clamping element engages the workpiece, the spring is compressed, limiting the amount of clamping force applied to the workpiece. The retainer nut (88) is selectively moved through the use of the tool to a selectable position along the threaded shaft (80) to adjust the spring compression, hence the clamping force. After initial setup, an electrochemical actuator (110) is actuated to melt a polymer, forcing a piston assembly (118, 120) and a bearing (84) to shift the threaded shaft (80) longitudinally against the spring, moving the clamping elements apart a short distance to release or receive a workpiece. The electrochemical actuator is then deactivated, allowing the spring to expand, clamping the workpiece between the clamping elements with the selected force. This enables an operator to load a workpiece manually into a vise (12) at a loading station (14). An automatic controller (30) controls a plurality of the vises, a moving table (10), a plurality of machine tools (18), and optionally, a robotic workpiece repositioning station (20).

Abstract: A block-wise adaptive statistical data compressor is disclosed that operates by replacing characters in a data block with super-character codewords comprising a variable length prefix and a fixed length index. The codewords are determined by treating a plurality of groups of characters as super-character groups and then adapting the codewords, for each data block, based upon the actual frequency of occurrence of the characters in each group. The super-character prefix value identifies the group to which a particular character belongs, and the index value identifies the individual character of the group. By grouping and indexing the characters into these super-character groups, the present invention models a particular data block using a fraction of the information generally required by a fixed statistical compressor. Also disclosed are multi-stage lossless block data compressors that include the block-wise adaptive statistical compressor and also include a clustering stage and a reordering stage. The clustering stage clusters like characters into similar locations within the data block, and the reordering stage reorders the data to generate an expected skew in the frequency distribution of characters in the data block so that the block can be more efficiently compressed by the block-wise adaptive statistical compressor.

Abstract: When insufficient traffic is present in the network to maintain synchronization in this manner, other methods must be used. One approach involves making direct measurements of the timing between base stations (602, 604). This is accomplished in one of two ways. The base may interrupt its transmissions on all sectors for a short interval during which it determines the time of arrival of signals from other base stations (602, 604). Given knowledge of the other base station locations, time errors relative to all other base stations (602, 604) may be derived. Alternatively, the base may send a short signal at high power in the mobile transmit band. This time-of-arrival of this signal is measured by the surrounding base stations and the time errors between pairs of base stations are computed. In some cases, a base station (602, 604) may be isolated sufficiently from all other base stations in the network such that direct base-to-base measurement is not viable. In this case, a fixed mobile (606) is placed at a location in the handoff region between the isolated cell and another cell in the network. The fixed mobile (606) either performs measurements of base station pilots on command of the base and reports the timing information, or sends a burst transmission at a specified time and power level to be measured by the base stations.
