Title: Automated banking machine and system operative to respond to html documents
Inventor: SMITH MARK D
IPC: H04L12/16
Filed: 1999-05-07
Abstract: An automated banking machine (12) is operative to conduct transactions in response to HTML documents and TCP/IP messages exchanged with a local computer system (14) through an intranet (16), as well as in response to messages exchanged with foreign servers (20, 22, 24, 26, 28, 96) in a wide area network (18). The banking machine includes a computer (34) having an HTML document handling portion (76, 80, 82). The HTML document handling portion is operative to communicate through a proxy server (88), with a home HTTP server (90) in the intranet or the foreign servers in the wide area network. The computer further includes a device application portion (84) which interfaces with the HTML document handling portion and dispatches messages to operate devices (36) in the automated banking machine. The devices include a sheet dispenser mechanism (42) which dispenses currency as well as other transaction devices. The device application portion communicates with a device interfacing software portion (64) in the banking machine through a device server (92) in the intranet. The device server maintains local control over the devices in the banking machine including the sheet dispenser. The banking machine operates to read indicia on the user's card corresponding to a system address. The computer is operative to connect the banking machine to the home or foreign server corresponding to the system address, which connected server operates the banking machine until the completion of transactions by the user.
Patent CA-2423750-A1 (CA)
Title: Stent delivery system with a fixed guide wire
Inventor: FISCHELL DAVID R
IPC: A61F2/06
Filed: 2003-03-26
Abstract: The present invention is a stem delivery system that uses a short section of a guide wire that is fixedly attached to a distal section of a balloon angioplasty catheter. By not having a guide wire that slides through the balloon of the balloon angioplasty catheter, the balloon on which the stem is mounted can have a reduced diameter. Therefore, the outside diameter of the undeployed stent mounted onto that balloon is also minimized. This provides a minimum profile, i.e., a minimum outside diameter, for the stem. A minimum profile at the distal section of the stent delivery system is highly advantageous for improving the percentage of cases that can be treated by means of direct stenting; i.e., without requiring pre-dilation of a stenosis.

Abstract: Methods for determining a vibratory excitation spectrum are tailored to physical characteristics of a structure having critical elements located thereon to b e subjected to vibration testing, such as a PCB to which connectors, resistors , capacitors, inductances, Integrated Circuits (IC) or Ball Grid Array components (BGA) are mounted. The physical characteristics includes a frequency respons e function corresponding to a testing environment temperature and defined in term of power spectral density amplitude over a global excitation frequency range for the vibratory excitation spectrum and characterized by a plurality of power spectral density amplitude peaks corresponding to a plurality of natural resonance frequencies, each being associated with respective mode shape and damping factor. The method comprises the steps of locating at least one anti-resonance frequency range extending between two main natural resonance frequencies, defining on the basis of the amplitude peaks corresponding to t he main natural resonance frequencies at least two corresponding sets of amplitude peaks each including the amplitude peak associated with any other natural resonance frequency near corresponding main natural resonance frequency included in the corresponding set, and defining from the sets of amplitude peaks at least two spectral profile sections associated with corresponding frequency ranges. Each spectral profile section is expressed as power spectr al density amplitude according to the mode shape and damping factor associated with corresponding main and other natural resonance frequencies and to the location of said critical elements, to form a vibratory excitation spectrum capable of maximizing vibration power transfer to the critical elements of the structure to be subjected to vibration at the testing environment temperature.

Patent CA-2441372-A1 (CA)
Inventor: MOSSAKOWSKI GERD
IPC: H04N7/26
Filed: 2002-03-19
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for compression and decompression of pixel-based image data. Each pixel first has the pixel value determined. A pixel difference value is then determined for each pixel, from a given number of neighbouring pixels, which results from the difference in the pixel value for the pixel in question to each of the neighbouring pixels thereof. The pixel difference values are then sorted in descending order. Each pixel used for the calculation of a pixel difference value is assigned to a pixel group. The pixel groups obtained thus are stored according to the descending sorting of the pixel difference values. For regeneration of the image the pixel groups with the highest pixel difference values are first loaded. A triangle is formed from the three closest pixel groups. The surfaces of each triangle are filled in a colouring process, calculated from the colour values of the pixel groups forming each of the three corners of the triangle. The more pixel groups are loaded the smaller the triangles become and the more precise the reconstruction of the image.

Abstract: Methods for discovery of enzyme ligands and inhibitors are disclosed. The methods comprise the creation and testing of combinatorial libraries comprising an active site-targeted component, a linker component and a peripheral site-targeted component. The methods also comprise a novel assay for determining whether a compound is a ligand of an enzyme. The assay evaluates whether the compound can inhibit the binding of a known ligand of the active site of the enzyme to a mutant of the enzyme that can bind the enzyme substrate but cannot catalyze an enzymatic reaction with the substrate.  Various ligands and inhibitors of protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B) are also disclosed. These ligands and inhibitors were discovered using the above methods. One particular inhibitor discovered using the invention methods has the highest specificity and affinity of any PTP1B inhibitor discovered to date.
