Title: Method and system for determining correct escape mechanisms and controlling interference in third generation wireless systems
Inventor: HUNKELER TERESA JOANNE
IPC: H04W36/06
Filed: 2003-06-27
Abstract: A correct escape mechanism is determined according to interference type. Transmission is arranged so that interference may be measured at all time slots as needed to compute a measure of variance in interference in time slots (45). If the variance is above a predetermined value, time division duplex escape mechanisms are employed (62, 322). If the variance is below a predetermined value, appropriate escape mechanisms are employed depending on whether the escape mechanism is being implemented during an uplink or downlink. Interference causing FDD WTUs may be handed over to carrier bands to control interference experienced by TDD users (64, 324).

Title: Method and apparatus for recognizing cursive writing from sequential input information
Inventor: PASHINTSEV ALEXANDER V
IPC: G06K9/62
Filed: 1993-09-03
Abstract: A method and apparatus for cursive script recognition employs an intermediate cursive words description language constructed of elements in the form of metastrokes wherein each of the metastrokes is a member of a metric space, the metric space being expressible as a matrix of likelihood of matching between input metastrokes and predefined metastrokes forming a vocabulary. Typically, a minimum of twenty metastrokes is used to form the vocabulary or set of allowable stroke elemental shapes, although as many as seventy may be used, with a correlation factor or measurement of similarity being defined between strings of metastrokes. Techniques for interpreting the metastrokes as words include substituting, adding, and deleting metastrokes in an input sequence, measuring similarity and comparing with entries in a dictionary of words constructed of metastroke sequences and variants of metastroke sequences.      Weighting of similarity may include penalties for lack of similarity.

Title: Retaining wedge for concrete forms
Inventor: BREWKA ROMAN
IPC: E04G17/00
Filed: 2005-03-21
Abstract: A retaining wedge for concrete forms has a tapered body of generally trapezoidal or triangular configuration. Oppositely diverging side edges of the body are provided with alternating peaks and valleys so as to present a number of detent-like depressions that encourage a firm and secure gripping action when the wedge is driven into the retaining slot of a locking pin that interconnects a pair of adjacent form panels. The peaks and valleys along each edge are presented by alternating convex and concave intersections between successive edge portions that slope outwardly at different angles from one another. Although certain portions of the edge slope outwardly at a higher angle than others, no edge portions slope inwardly toward the longitudinal axis of the wedge body. Consequently, the wedge is constantly tapering over its full length from one end to the other. A long, slender tip of the wedge facilitates insertion and fast starts.

Title: Gmpls+ip/mpls node and ip/mpls node
Inventor: SHIOMOTO KOHEI
IPC: H04L45/50
Filed: 2004-03-24
Abstract: It is possible to realize a network containing GMPLS and IP/MPLS in which the IP/MPLS node can operate directly as the IP/MPLS node without replacing it by a node having the GMPLS function. The GMPLS+IP/MPLS node (edge) sets a PSC-LSP  between GMPLS+IP/MPLS nodes (edges) so that matching with a protocol of an IP/MPLS node outside the GMPLS cloud can be obtained. From the viewpoint of the IP/MPLS node, the PSC-LSP is used as a link of the IP/MPLS and operates signaling of the MPLS-LSP setting requested from the IP/MPLS.

Abstract: A method is disclosed for producing a modified eukaryotic cytoplasmic DNA virus by direct molecular cloning of a modified DNA molecule comprising a modified cytoplasmic DNA virus genome. The inventive method comprises the steps of (I) modifying under extracellular conditions a DNA molecule comprising a first cytoplasmic DNA virus genome to produce a modified DNA molecule comprising the modified cytoplasmic DNA virus genome; (II) introducing the modified DNA molecule into a first host cell which packages the modified DNA molecule into infectious virions; and (III) recovering from the host cell virions comprised of the modified viral genome. The host cell is infected with a helper virus which is expressed to package the modified viral genome into infectious virions. Examples of packaging a modified poxvirus genome by a helper poxvirus of the same or different genus are described. Also disclosed are novel poxvirus vectors for direct molecular cloning of open reading frames into a restriction enzyme cleavage site that is unique in the vector. In one model poxvirus vector, the open reading frame is transcribed by a promoter located in the vector DNA upstream of a multiple cloning site comprised of several unique cleavage sites.
