Abstract: L'invention concerne un aquarium rotatif (10) destiné à des poissons vivants et, en particulier, à des coraux vivants, comprenant une partie toit (12) avec des luminaires (14), une cuve (16) possédant un corps central (18), une plaque tournante (20) à moteur électrique (22) permettant de faire tourner la cuve (16), et une base (24) pour supporter la cuve (16). Le corps central (18) comprend une canalisation électrique (32) destinée au passage de fils électriques reliés aux luminaires (14) situés dans la partie toit (12). Le corps central (18) comprend également une conduite d'eau (39) raccordée à un réservoir (40) installé à l'intérieur de la base (24) de l'aquarium (10). Le réservoir (40) comprend une pompe (44) faisant circuler de l'eau à travers l'aquarium (10). La cuve (16) tourne autour du corps central (18) grâce à la plaque tournante (20) et au moteur électrique (22). Comme la cuve (16) est rotative, les poissons et les coraux vivants reçoivent de la lumière selon des angles différents et bénéficient d'une circulation d'eau plus grande. L'aquarium (10) de l'invention offre donc un environnement plus proche de celui de l'océan aux animaux qui y vivent.

Abstract: Un état orphelin est atténué dans un système de communicationis à spectre étalé en déterminant quand une unité (113) à distance est susceptible de passer à l'état orphelin (315), et en ajustant les paramètres (360) de fonctionnement de ladite unité (113) à distance pour forcer d'autres stations (101, 102) de base à s'ajouter à l'ensemble actif de ladite unité (113) à distance. En particulier, quand il est certain qu'une unité (113) à distance est susceptible de passer à l'état orphelin, T_ADD et T_COMP sont ajustés de sorte que ladite unité (113) à distance est forcée d'ajouter d'autres stations (101, 102) de base à son ensemble actif. Augmenter le nombre de stations (101, 102) de base avec lesquelles une unité (113) à distance communique permet de diminuer les probabilités pour cette unité (113) à distance de passer à l'état orphelin.

Abstract: Cette invention concerne l'utilisation topique d'un antagoniste du récepteur de l'interleukine 1 (IL-1Ra) qui s'avère utile pour prolonger la vie d'un greffon cornéen dans un modèle murin d'allogreffe orthotopique, et notamment pour prolonger de manière significative la vie d'un greffon à la fois dans des stromas cornéens à haut risque et des stromas cornéens normaux (à risque faible). L'allongement de la durée de vie du greffon est par ailleurs associée à une diminution importante de l'inflammation de la cornée. Il est par conséquent possible d'utiliser IL-1ra, ainsi que les antagonistes de l'interleukine-1 associés, dans une composition thérapeutique destinée à la prophylaxie et au traitement topique du rejet des allogreffons et au traitement local d'une large gamme de troubles inflammatoires immunogéniques de l'oeil. Ladite composition contient une quantité thérapeutiquement efficace de IL-1ra associée à un excipient pharmaceutiquement acceptable pour l'application topique.

Patent EP-0866559-A1 (EP)
Inventor: HOGEBOOM JOHN GORDON
IPC: H03L7/113
Filed: 1998-01-26
Abstract: A phase-locked loop (PLL) includes a voltage controlled
oscillator (VCO), a charge pump, a phase detector and a frequency
detector. The phase detector detects the phase difference between
an incoming signal and a VCO signal. The frequency difference
between the incoming signal and a reference signal is detected by the
frequency detector separately from the phase detector. During the
process of attaining phase lock, the phase and frequency detectors
operate simultaneously. The VCO signal is phase-locked to the
incoming signal when it is present. When the incoming signal is
absent, the VCO maintains a frequency close to an intended bit rate
by frequency locking to a multiple of the reference signal. It, thus,
avoids extreme system behavior and greatly assists rapid reliable
phase lock when the incoming signal is applied following a period
when it is absent. The PLL is analog for simplicity, low power, and
the ability to achieve the finest possible phase resolution, while the
frequency lock mode is digitally controlled for high parametric
insensitivity and ease of disabling to minimize power consumption
and jitter once phase lock is attained. The frequency detector
includes two counters for counting the VCO and reference signals.
The frequency detector inhibits either of the counters as needed to
force them both to count at the same rate and uses inhibit pulses to
control a separate charge pump connected directly to the integration
capacitor of the PLL. The frequency detector can be easily added to
a wide range of charge pump PLLs.

Abstract: The invention provides improved computer network firewalls which include one
or more features for increased processing efficiency. A firewall in accordance with the
invention can support multiple security policies, multiple users or both, by applying
any one of several distinct sets of access rules. The firewall can also be configured to
utilize "stateful" packet filtering which involves caching rule processing results for one
or more packets, and then utilizing the cached results to bypass rule processing for
subsequent similar packets. To facilitate passage to a user, by a firewall, of a separate
later transmission which is properly in response to an original transmission, a
dependency mask can be set based on session data items such as source host address,
destination host address, and type of service. The mask can be used to query a cache
of active sessions being processed by the firewall, such that a rule can be selected based
on the number of sessions that satisfy the query. Dynamic rules may be used in
addition to pre-loaded access rules in order to simplify rule processing. To unburden
the firewall of application proxies, the firewall can be enabled to redirect a network
session to a separate server for processing.

Abstract: The system uses phase modulation, and produces a complex signal having real and imaginary parts. The signal may be transmitted and received with small envelope variations and consequently low error rate. Successive symbols (ai) of a digital train are converted into phase increments ( DELTA  ) which are accumulated. A modulating phase is obtained by filtering the accumulated phase, and a complex signal is produced whose argument represents the modulating phase. Two radio waves are modulated in phase quadrature on the basis of this complex signal, and the resulting radio signal is transmitted. The complex signal is filtered, and the real and imaginary parts (I, Q) are subject to analogue filtering then mixed into two radio waves.
