Title: Methods for modifying plant responses to stress and correspondingly derived plants
Inventor: GEORGES FAWZY
IPC: C12N9/16
Filed: 2003-02-05
Abstract: Plant stresses such as pest drought, and excessive temperatures can lead to significant losses of crops each year. There is a continuing need to develop novel plant varieties that are less susceptible to damage or loss by such stresses. The present invention provides a system and method for generating plants having an increased resistance to plant stresses such as drought or adverse temperatures. Transgenic plants expressing a phosphoinositide-specific phospholipase C (PI-PLC) gene can show an unexpected and dramatic improvement in their capacity to tolerate a variety of stress conditions. Moreover, increased PI-PLC expression can further lead to marked increase in plant growth rates, maturation, and lipid content. The present invention encompasses transgenic plants having modifications with regard to PI-PLC pathways, such as altered PI-PLC levels, and plant products thereof.

IPC: G06Q10/06
Filed: 2004-07-30
Abstract: The automated Work Permit system is an electronic process allowing computerized Work Permit application, reviews prior to issuance, issuance, tracking, closure, and archiving. It is rules based, with reactive templates generating algorithms requiring related fields to be addressed before various stages of the Work Permit process can be completed. It provides automatic checks against networks or databases to determine if Permit Receivers have security clearances and safety training, and automatically generates appropriate safety requirements to be taken prior to issuance, and during the activity. Work Permits are automatically graphically displayed on an electronic plot p[an, with different symbols indicating the types of Work Permit issued. Work is tracked and areas of congestion and conflicting activities are visually displayed. The Work Permits are automatically archived when activities are electronically closed, with any outstanding closures at the end of work period sending alarm notices to the issuer.

Title: Packet scheduling mechanism
Inventor: BONOMI FLAVIO
IPC: H04L12/56
Filed: 2003-03-15
Abstract: Methods and apparatus are disclosed for scheduling packets, such as in systems having a non-blocking switching fabric and homogeneous or heterogeneous line card interfaces. In one implementation, multiple request generators, grant arbiters, and acceptance arbiters work in conjunction to determine this scheduling. A set of requests for sending packets from a particular input is generated. From a grant starting position, a first n requests in a predetermined sequence are identified, where n is less than or equal to the maximum number of connections that can be used in a single packet time to the particular output. The grant starting position is updated in response to the first n grants including a particular grant corresponding to a grant advancement position. In one embodiment, the set of grants generated based on the set of requests is similarly determined using an acceptance starting position and an acceptance advancement position.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un instrument et une technique d'enlèvement des fils de suture. On utilise un filament chauffant récemment conçu pour permettre à la pointe de l'instrument d'enlèvement des fils de suture de passer sous le noeud de façon à chauffer et couper le noeud. Pour retirer les fils de suture, on utilise actuellement les ciseaux, les forceps et/ou les scalpels. Ces procédés, qui sont bien connus, présentent l'inconvénient d'exercer une tension sur le noeud, et d'être désagréables pour le patient. Les petits noeuds sont une difficulté supplémentaire pour l'enlèvement des fils de suture car le fil de suture présente moins de jeu pour l'insertion des ciseaux. L'invention permet ainsi de retirer plus rapidement les fils de suture, avec moins de désagrément pour le patient, et ce, à un coût compétitif, voire inférieur.
