Abstract: The present invention provides a method for accessing a fiber from a bundle of fibers (16a-16f) disposed in a sheath (14a-14f). The method comprises several steps which include cutting the sheath circumferentially at a leading position (22) as well as circumferentially at a trailing position (24) to divide the sheath into a leading section (26), a mid-section (28) and a trailing section (30). The sheath is spread along the axis of the sheath between the leading section and the mid-section to create a first access opening(32). A fiber (16a-16d) to be accessed is cut at the first access opening (32). The leading section and mid-section are pushed together to close the first access opening. The sheath is spread along the axis of the sheath between the mid-section (28) and the trailing section (30) to create a second access opening (38) wherein the fiber is pulled from the mid-section of the sheath so that it extends out of the second access opening. The mid-section (28) and trailing section (30) of the sheath are pushed together to close the second access opening while the fiber is permitted to extend out of the trailing cut. Tape may be placed around the cuts to physically join the sections of the sheath and to seal out contaminants. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Signal transmission apparatus for use, for example, in a passive sensor system such as an in-vehicle tyre pressure sensing system, comprises transmitter circuitry and receiver circuitry coupled together by a coupling, preferably a wireless coupling such as two opposed plate-form antennae. The transmitter circuitry includes a resonator having at least one component whose value influences a natural resonant frequency of the resonator and can be changed in use of the circuitry. The effective value is changed, for example, by a physical parameter being sensed or by a control signal to be transmitted. The receiver circuitry includes a driver section for applying to the resonator an excitation signal having a predetermined excitation frequency that is different from the natural resonant frequency. The transmitter circuitry preferably derives its power supply from the excitation signal via a rectifier circuit. The receiver circuitry detects such a change in the effective value via the coupling. Such signal transmission apparatus can operate accurately and reliably in electronically and environmentally inhospitable environments.

Abstract: A piezoelectric thin film sensor array is used to scan and capture biometric data, for example, a fingerprint image. In one embodiment, a multi-layer structure includes a PVDF layer in between two conductor grids arranged orthogonally to one another. Urethane can be added to one side where a finger is placed. A foam substrate can be used as a support. In one feature, the PVDF, and grids can be peeled off like a label for easy replacement. Multiplexers are switched to scan the sensor. A single pixel or a group of pixels can be detected and output to an image memory. The presence of a fingerprint ridge is detected by virtue of a ring-down oscillation that arises from reflection when an electric field is applied to the piezoelectric thin film sensor array at a pixel in contact with the fingerprint ridge. For example, such a ring-down value associated with a fingerprint ridge can be detected at about 150 ns. (or 5 cycles at 30 MHZ). Other reflections indicative of additional biometrics (e.g. from tissue, blood, bone, fingernail, etc.) can also be detected. A Doppler effect due to reflections from circulating blood can also be detected. Such a Doppler effect can provide further information about direction and speed of blood circulation. An instantaneous pyroelectric effect can also be detected to indicate a live finger presence.

After the transduction, the transduced precursors are incubated in a medium and under conditions whereby the dendritic cell precursors differentiate into dendritic cells that contain the heterologous gene. In a further embodiment, the present invention is directed to an adeno-associated virus (AAV) vector comprising at least a portion of the AAV genome and at least one heterologous gene selected from the group consisting of a gene encoding an antigen, a gene encoding a cytokine and combinations of one or more genes by genetically altered dendritic cells.

Abstract: An active region 30 is formed on a substrate 3, which is made of SiC, GaN, or GaAs, for example, by alternately layering undoped layers 22 with a thickness of for example about 50 nm and n-type doped layers 23 with a thickness (for example, about 10 nm) that is thin enough that quantum effects can be achieved. Carriers spread out into the undoped layers 22 from sub-bands of the n-type doped layers 23 that occur due to quantum effects. In the undoped layers 22, which have a low concentration of impurities, the scattering of impurities is reduced, and therefore a high carrier mobility can be obtained there, and when the entire active region 30 has become depleted, a large withstand voltage value can be obtained due to the undoped layers 22 by taking advantage of the fact that there are no more carriers in the active region 30. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A software facility for automatically identifying subnetworks in a network is described. The facility receives a plurality of addresses of hosts in the network, and accesses a binary tree. The nodes of the binary tree each represent a range of addresses within the network. A facility traverses the binary tree to identify candidate nodes where both child nodes have one or more descendent leaf nodes representing host addresses. The facility tests the address range represented by each candidate node visited in the traversal to determine whether the address range is a subnet address range for a subnet being used on the network. If testing indicates that a visited candidate node represents such an address range, the facility identifies the visited candidate node as a subnet node. The facility skips, in the traversal, any candidate notes that are descendents of an identified subnet node.

Abstract: The invention relates to the simultaneous analysis of variations in distinct nucleic acid sequences within a complex nucleic acid mixture. The invention consists in the use of chips with spatially separated fields of photocleavable oligonucleotide probes which are commonly processed together with the target sequences and thereby modified in a sequence-dependent way. The probes are cleaved and analyzed by laser desorption mass spectrometry. This allows highly parallel and nevertheless sequence-specific reactions within a single reaction mixture. Since the photocleavable oligonucleotide probes are placed on a substrate in a spatially defined manner, e.g. in the form of an array, a specific target sequence can be assigned a unique position on the oligonucleotide chip. Since the photocleavable probes are covalently immobilized on the solid surface, the detection reaction can be performed directly on the chip while preserving the probe position pattern. Due to the presence of a photosensitive residue within the probes, these can be controlled photolytically after the detection reaction so that a mass spectroscopic analysis can then be carried out. <IMAGE>
