Abstract: A protective sealing barrier for a syringe (30) is disclosed. The protective sealing barrier can be configured to safeguard the sterility of the syringe and any contents held therein, as a barrier against leakage of any contents held within the syringe or both. The syringe (30) includes a luer tip (54) and a collar (51) having terminal ends (52, 56) which are preferably substantially co-planar with one another. The barrier consists of a membrane (60) which is disposed in substantially entire surface contact with the terminal ends (52, 56) of both the luer tip (54) and the collar (51). The membrane (60) can be selected from a material permitting the syringe to be irradiated or heat sterilized. Likewise, the membrane (60) can be chosen from a material permitting the syringe to be sterilized by various gas sterilization procedures. The membrane provides good tamper evidence of the syringe, can be stocked in a uniform size adaptable to various sizes of syringes, reduces the storage space required for the syringes, and can serve as a platform for printing information regarding contents held within the syringe (30). <IMAGE>

Abstract: The device has a number of transform devices (MP1,MP2,Mpk) which selectively spectrally transform spectral components of a multiplexed input to produce precompensated spectral components. The transformations are used in anticipation of signal deformations caused by transmissions along predefined paths. The spectral precompensated components are applied to the input of a transmission node and routed to destination nodes. Each module contributes to the chromatic dispersion precompensation, with a switch used to selectively couple the spectral components to the modules.

Abstract: A surgical access device comprises an introducer (100) with a main endoscopic channel and an auxiliary or secondary instrument channel. The introducer exhibits an extremely narrow cross-sectional profile in order to minimize the size of the portal or other entry point necessary to gain access into the patient's body, thereby minimizing pain and discomfort to the patient and allowing a wide variety of endoscopic procedures to be performed on an out-patient basis. The narrow profile of the introducer is maintained upon introduction by a guide channel (118) which can be stored in a first position so as to closely conform to the profile of the introducer. The guide channel is provided with a set in order to maintain its stored position upon introduction; however, post introductively, the set in the guide channel can be readily realeased in order to deploy the guide channel and allow insertion of a secondary surgical instrument. The guide channel can be provided with rails or other tracks in order to ensure accurate movement at the instrument to the desired distal location. The guide channel is constructed from a thin but extremely strong and noncompliant membrane material. The present invention also comprises a method of construction and use of the surgical access device.

Abstract: A filter arrangement for filtering fluid comprises a housing and a valve arrangement. The housing includes an inlet, an outlet, and a draining aperture. The valve arrangement is constructed and arranged to move between a closed position and an open position without the use of threads. The closed position prevents evacuation of fluid from the housing through the draining aperture, and the open position permits evacuation of fluid from the housing through the draining aperture. One valve arrangement may include a pair of ports and a pair of air vents. The valve is actuated by aligning the ports and air vents on a sliding sealing surface. An indicator arrangement including a float and a clear window is provided to give the user a visual indication of the level of water within the filter.

Abstract: The subject system provides reduced-dimension mapping of pattern data. Mapping is applied through conventional single-hidden-layer feed-forward neural network with non-linear neurons. According to one aspect of the present invention, the system functions to equalize and orthogonalize lower dimensional output signals by reducing the covariance matrix of the output signals to the form of a diagonal matrix or constant times the identity matrix. The present invention allows for visualization of large bodies of complex multidimensional data in a relatively "topologically correct" low-dimension approximation, to reduce randomness associated with other methods of similar purposes, and to keep the mapping computationally efficient at the same time.

Abstract: An apparatus for preventing the deposition and build-up of chains of polymerized TEOS molecules in the pipes downstream from a reaction furnace in a semiconductor manufacturing process includes an annular nozzle assembly positioned inside the pipes such that a plenum is formed between the annular nozzle assembly and the pipes and such that the annular nozzle forms a hollow tubular conduit for conducting effluent from the reaction furnace. The annular nozzle assembly preferably includes three hollow and generally cylindrical sections, an upstream collar, a downstream spacer ring, and a middle section(s) positioned between the upstream collar and the downstream spacer ring. The annular nozzle assembly is placed within the pipes downstream of the reaction furnace during operation and is modularly constructed so that the length of the annular nozzle assembly can be varied, depending on the length of the downstream pipes from the reaction furnace. The annular nozzle assembly forms a gas boundary layer or moving virtual wall on its inner surfaces that prevents TEOS gas molecules and water vapor molecules from absorbing or residing on the inner surfaces of the annular nozzle assembly, thus preventing surface chemical reactions between TEOS gas molecules and water vapor molecules on the inner surfaces of the annular nozzle assembly, thereby preventing the deposition and build-up of chains of polymerized TEOS molecules on the inner surfaces of the annular nozzle assembly or the inner surfaces of the pipes in which the annular nozzle assembly is placed.

Abstract: A method and apparatus is proposed for providing automatic user access authentication of any user who is a member of a set of authorized users of a computer enterprise from any one of a plurality of geographically dispersed user workstations, onto one of a plurality of predetermined local security servers, through the use of a single log-on. A person server resident on a local security server compares the user-provided identification information to entries contained in a local authentication database. If the person server finds a match, the user is granted access to the local security server. If the person server does not find a match, the person server then searches a network database to determine whether the entered user name is known to the enterprise. If the person server finds a single user name matching the previously entered user name, it returns the name of the local security server associated with the computer enterprise whose local authentication database may have the information necessary for allowing proper authentication of the user. Upon receiving the name of the newly-identified server, the client then automatically retrieves the server's logical location from a service mapping file and then repeats the authentication request to the new local security server. <IMAGE>
