Title: Process and apparatus for cooking or gelatinizing materials
Inventor: PITCHON E
IPC: A23L1/00
Filed: 1980-12-15
Abstract: A process and apparatus is provided for cooking or gelatinizing a material in an atomized state, so that there is obtained an easily dryable, uniform and finely-sized product. The material which is to be cooked is injected through an atomization aperture in a nozzle assembly to form a relatively finely-sized spray. A heating medium is also injected through an aperture in the nozzle assembly into the spray of atomized material so as to heat the material to a temperature effective to cook or gelatinize the material. An enclosed chamber surrounds the atomization and heating medium injection apertures, and defines a vent aperture positioned to enable the heated spray of material to exit the chamber. The arrangement is such that the elapsed time between passage of the spray material through the chamber, i.e. from the atomization aperture and through the vent aperture, defines the cooking or gelatinization time of the material. The apparatus and process disclosed herein are particularly useful in preparing a novel uniformly gelatinized starch product, but also have utility in connection with cooking protein or other suitable materials.
Patent AU-6543198-A (AU)
Title: Client-based system for monitoring the performance of application programs
Inventor: YEE ANDRE H
IPC: G06F11/34
Filed: 1998-03-24
Abstract: A client-based application monitoring system detects events of interest by examining communications between an application program and the computer's operating system. A configuration module permits a user to identify specific events that occur during the operation of the application program, by presenting a sequence of messages that are passed between the application program and the operating system. The messages are described by means of a macro language which employs readily comprehensible terms that avoid the need for a detailed understanding of the application program itself. The user selects specific events of interest to be recorded for monitoring purposes. Thereafter, as the application program executes, the events of interest are recorded, and latencies between recorded events are calculated for generation of a report pertaining to application response times.

The user of the vision tester can determine the diopter rating of the appropriate lens needed for reading by determining which lens renders the printed matter clear and readable.
Patent AU-6974100-A (AU)
Title: Improved method and apparatus for down-conversion of radio frequency (rf) signals
Inventor: MANKU TAJINDER
IPC: H04B1/30
Filed: 2000-09-01
Abstract: This patent describes a method and system which overcomes the LO-leakage problem of direct conversion and similar RF transmitters and receivers. To solve this problem a virtual LO(TM) signal is generated which emulates mixing with a local oscillator (LO) signal. However, the virtual local oscillator (VLO) signal is constructed using signals that do not contain a significant amount of power (or no power at all) at the wanted output RF frequency, so there is no LO component to leak to the output. The invention also does not require sophisticated filters or large capacitors as other designs in the art, so it is fully integratable.
