Title: Method and apparatus for enabling commuter groups
Inventor: COBBOLD MARK
IPC: G06Q50/00
Filed: 2007-09-24
Abstract: A commuter groups service (CGS) allows commuters to join commuter groups so that they are able to socialize while commuting. Through the commuter groups, the users may share commuting routes, traffic updates, road conditions, and other information. Group members may arrange car pools, short term riding arrangements, and may anonymously or directly contact each other. The CGS may collect group member position information, e.g. GPS information, to enable the CGS to calculate traffic conditions and to select location specific information for group members. The system may include an on-line service accessible through a computer or wireless networking device. The user may log into the CGS, create or modify a user profile, and join groups of their choosing. Groups may be associated with specific events or with getting to/from work. Commuter groups may be formed for commuters that use private vehicles and/or public transportation.
Patent CA-2664270-A1 (CA)
Inventor: KONGALATH GEORGE PHILIP
IPC: H04L12/18
Filed: 2007-09-24
Abstract: Methods, data servers, signal and destination device for optimizing asynchronous delivery of a data content. Once it is determined that more than one instances of the data content are asynchronous, attempts are made to merge them into a fewer number of synchronized instances. It is done by providing a synchronization instance before delivering the synchronized instance and the synchronization instance of the data content. The synchronization instance may be consumed first while the synchronized instance is stored in cache. Thereafter, the synchronized instance is consumed from the cache upon completion of the synchronization instance. Alternatively, the synchronization instance may have an accelerated bit rate and be consumed while it is being received and stored in cache. The synchronized instance is thereafter consumed upon completion of the synchronization instance. The signal comprises information enabling identification of a transition point between the synchronization instance and the synchronized instance of the data content.

The plunger is engaged with the inner surface of the dispensing chamber, is capable of sliding in the cavity of the dispensing chamber, and is fluidly sealed to the inner surface of the dispensing chamber. The controller controls the operation of the injection device. The controller reads dosage data from the memory device and operates the injection device to deliver a dosage corresponding to the dosage data.

Inventor: REZNIK ALEXANDER
IPC: H04W52/24
Filed: 2007-10-10
Abstract: A wireless transmit/receive units (WTRUs) receives a downlink transmission from a Node-B and decodes the downlink transmission. If the decoding is not successful, the WTRU sends a pre-defined burst signifying a negative acknowledgement (NACK) to the Node-B via a contention-based shared feedback channel. The pre-defined burst may be sent only once without requiring an acknowledgement. The Node-B calibrates a downlink transmit power so that the downlink transmission is transmitted to the WTRUs with a high likelihood. The Node-B may send a downlink transmission including multiple data streams processed using different modulation and coding schemes so that a WTRU having a high signal quality decodes all data streams while a WTRU having a low signal quality decodes less than all data streams. The Node-B sends a channel quality indicator (CQI) threshold so that each WTRU determines a data stream to report feedback based on the CQI threshold and a measured CQI.

Abstract: A method and a device relating to a scheduling mechanism in a base station in a WCDMA system are disclosed. The mechanism enables the base station to rapidly adapt to users momentary traffic demands and to interference variations, a dynamical adjustable margin is proposed in this invention. The adjustment is based on the RoT measurement in a cell. To fully use the resource in a cell, the RoT can be targeted to be as closer to the RoTmax as possible however without exceed the limit. The scheduler is preferably set to schedule as high a rate or as many users as possible to fill up the available RoT. The margin which is reserved for the neighboring cell load and external interference is decreased step by step as long as the RoT measurement is below a threshold under RoTmax. Whenever the RoT measurement exceeds the threshold, the margin is increased by one step.

Title: Method and kit for detecting resistance in living organisms
Inventor: KUDSK PER NIELSEN
IPC: G01N33/50
Filed: 2008-01-07
Abstract: The present invention concerns the detection of resistance in a living organism, e.g. herbicide resistance in weed crops. Based on non-separated compounds obtained from an organism e.g. an extract from a plant, a colour development is generate. The colour or shade developed is dependent on the compounds of the organism. By comparing the colour or shade of the extract obtained from an organism with a standard colour scale developed in respect of the same organism, it is possible to determine if the organism is resistant to a pesticide e.g. to a herbicide. The invention also concerns a method of providing a standard colour scale for material from a living organism that has been exposed to stress e.g. to a pesticide. An assay kit for the determination of whether material from a living organism is resistant to a pesticide is also described. The present invention may be used by farmers or advisors to test if e.g. plants have developed resistance to a herbicide.

Abstract: Virtual machine (VM) management using a group name. By associating VM registration information with a group name, all VMs running off a single physical machine image can be managed (e.g., blocked or unblocked) simultaneously. A service component captures registration information (e.g., IP address-VM name pair) between a virtual machine and a name server. The IP address-VM name pair is recorded (or stored) in the name server database. Based on the VM pair, a record component generates a group name, and stores the VM pair in association with the group name in the name server database. Blocking of the group name then blocks all VMs associated with the group name. Moreover, queries against the group name will then expose all operational VMs for that host. Updates to the group name record can be made based on registration and deregistration of VMs for a given host machine.
