Abstract: A self-heating or self-cooling container, which uses a chemical reaction to effect heating or cooling. The reagents for the chemical reaction are stored separately in two sealed compartments ( 5, 6 ) having a common dividing wall ( 7 ), which can move within the compartments to expand the volume of one compartment at the expense of the other compartment. This arrangement allows efficient use of space within the reaction module of the can, which is particularly important where large amounts of reagent are required to obtain the necessary heating or cooling effect and where the products of the chemical reaction occupy a significantly increased volume compared to the initial reagent in the compartment.

Abstract: Application device ( 1 ), for example, a metal needle or a plastic catheter that has in the end portion ( 2 ) of the free end a gradually increasing thickness to form substantially a chute guide ( 3 ) which ends at a side opening ( 4 ) made on the application device ( 1 ). This way, an interstitial antenna ( 10 ) is obtained formed by a co-axial tube having an external conductor ( 7 ), by a dielectric layer ( 9 ) and by a central conductor ( 8 ) embedded in the dielectric layer ( 9 ) that insulates it from the external conductor ( 7 ). The antenna ( 10 ) can be put in a target tissue, along an actuation direction forming an angle a with the introduction direction. This way, the antenna ( 10 ) achieves an actual surface isothermal, i.e. a mass of tissue actually coagulated within a curved surface ( 13 ), since the tip of the application device ( 1 ) is connected electrically with the external conductor ( 7 ) and increases its area of action.

Abstract: A system and process for generating a high dynamic range (HDR) image from a bracketed image sequence, even in the presence of scene or camera motion, is presented. This is accomplished by first selecting one of the images as a reference image. Then, each non-reference image is registered with another one of the images, including the reference image, which exhibits an exposure that is both closer to that of the reference image than the image under consideration and closest among the other images to the exposure of the image under consideration, to generate a flow field. The flow fields generated for the non-reference images not already registered with the reference image are concatenated to register each of them with the reference image. Each non-reference image is then warped using its associated flow field. The reference image and the warped images are combined to create a radiance map representing the HDR image. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A first one-bit symbol (CBP4) is transmitted for each block of transformation coefficients. If the CBP4 shows that a corresponding block contains significant coefficients, a significance image is encoded as a result of the transmission of a one-bit symbol (SIG) for each coefficient in a scan sequence. If a corresponding significance symbol is 'one', then a further one-bit symbol (LAST) is transmitted to show whether a present significant coefficient is a last coefficient within a block or whether further significant coefficients are following. Positions of significant transformation coefficients contained in a block are determined and encoded for each block in a first scanning process, followed by a second scanning process carried out in reverse order. Independent claims are also included for the following: (a) A structure with a processor/chip set up to carry out the method of the present invention; (b) and for a computer program for carrying out the method of the present invention when loaded; (c) and for a computer-readable memory medium for storing a program to carry out the method of the present invention; (d) and for a method for downloading a computer program e.g. from the Internet onto a data-processing device linked to a data network.

Abstract: A middle layer network protocol enhancement, virtual connectivity (VC) makes the network attachment point changes of local and remote peers transparent to applications that use network services. A virtual connectivity module local to each peer translates communication connection parameters from apparent to real and vice versa, as well as sending and receiving secure connection updates directly to and from peers. Unlike Mobile IP, no routing infrastructure modifications are required. A subscribe-notify service provides connection update notifications when direct peer-to-peer connection updates are not possible, for example, when two communicating peers move simultaneously or when the moving peer is communicating with a peer behind network address translation (NAT). Methods for detecting these conditions are disclosed, as is a virtual connectivity protocol and virtual connectivity module architecture.
