Title: Graphical user interface engine for embedded systems
Inventor: KLASK KENNETH J
IPC: G06F9/44
Filed: 2000-03-03
Granted: 2010-10-26
Abstract: In an embedded system, for instance in a household appliance, in addition to the usual embedded microprocessor/microcontroller there is provided another processor which actually executes a user interface HTML document for accepting user input, for instance from a keypad and controlling the display device, for instance an LCD. The embedded microprocessor hosts the user interface document, responds to requests from the other processor, keeps track of changes in variables shared with the other processor, and executes the control device functionality. The other processor renders the graphical user interface to the display and interacts with the user by executing local functions to operate on the memory and i/o resources of the embedded processor as described by the user interface document served to it.

Granted: 2004-06-22
Abstract: An interface (66) between a dual mode mobile station (60) and a piece of data terminal equipment (64) supports both a logical digital interface (66(1)) and a logical analog interface (65(2)), with the analog interface passing through a modem. At set-up of either a mobile originated or mobile terminated data/fax call, a supporting dual mode communications network (62) determines whether n digital traffic channel (52) is available on an air interface. It so, the channel is allocated to the mobile station, and data/fax communication with the data terminal equipment occurs using the logical digital interface.  Otherwise, an analog voice channel is allocated, and the data/fax communication with the data terminal equipment occurs using the logical analog interface and modem. Within the supporting network, data/fax communications via the digital traffic channel are routed through an interworking functionality (72) that terminates a radio link protocol utilized for communicating aver the digital air interface. Analog voice channel data/fax communications are instead routed through a modem pool (70) that terminates a selected modem protocol utilized by the modem for communicating over the analog air interface.

Title: Skin of an airplane door
Inventor: BOLD JENS
IPC: B64C1/14
Filed: 2001-07-19
Granted: 2006-03-28
Abstract: The invention relates to a skin of an airplane door, which conforms to the surrounding surface contour of the fuselage, and which during the flight is exposed to a pressure load direction. It is an object of the invention to provide the skin of an airplane door with a clearly smaller dimension for the purpose of a light construction, thus permitting a weight reduction of the door. The object is achieved in that the skin is performed against the pressure load direction and connected with supports of a door frame. During flight at cruising altitude, the internal fuselage pressures deform the skin away from a predetermined shape so as to conform the exterior of the skin with adjacent exterior surfaces of the fuselage, thereby minimizing flow resistance.

Abstract: A method for inhibiting the counterfeiting of electronic cash smart cards (11) that use microchips for monetary stored value or digital identity cards that use microchips to control the transfer of data. Such electronic cash cards have recently been counterfeited by the use of electronic techniques to break the security codes. Such counterfeiting can be inhibited by bonding an optical memory stripe (17) to the smart card with pre-recorded or post-recorded validation data (19) at one or multiple locations on the cards. This optical validation data would be read with a photodetector array and could be transmitted to the recipient during funds transfer and/or used locally to control dispensing of cash or data. Thus successful counterfeiting of the modified electronic cash or digital identity card would require meeting exacting electronic and optical requirements.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé de dosage de la liaison entre un composé marqué fluorophore et un composé non marqué. Le procédé consiste à détecter un effet de réduction sur la fluorescence émise par le composé marqué fluorophore résultant de la liaison. La liaison est spécifique et autre que nucléobase à nucléobase. Le procédé est exécuté sans que le composé marqué fluorophore soit séparé des complexes du composé marqué fluorophore et du composé non marqué avant la détection de l'effet de réduction, et sans présentation d'un agent de réduction de signal pour réduire la lumière fluorescente. De préférence, le composé marqué fluorophore est un acide nucléique et le composé non marqué une protéine. Le procédé peut servir pour diverses applications, notamment le criblage de médicaments candidats possédant des propriétés de liaison optimales, et la quantification de l'affinité de liaison de protéines de liaison d'ADN pour des acides nucléiques.

Title: Flexible stand-up liquid pouch with internalized straw
Inventor: KOTHARI RAHUL A
IPC: B65B9/08
Filed: 2002-05-28
Granted: 2006-07-11
Abstract: A flexible stand-up liquid pouch is formed from a sheet of foil film laminate material whereby opposed side walls of the material are folded together with sealed circumferential edges to form an enclosed chamber. A liquid is provided in the chamber, and the side walls of the sheet material which form the container have raised portions which, when sealed together, cooperatively form an internal straw restraining passage inside the container. The straw restraining passage communicates with the liquid chamber and a straw is held loosely captive inside the straw restraining passage and is axially displaceable therein. The straw restraining passage defines a reduced cross-sectional area of the chamber, and the pouch is manufactured with a weakened portion on an upper portion of the pouch, whereby the weakened portion can be torn by a user, thus enabling the internal straw to emerge, due to the buoyancy of the straw, from the interior of the pouch. In providing a sealed bottom edge to the liquid pouch, a bottom rim is formed, wherein the pouch can stand in an upright position on a horizontal surface upon the bottom rim.

Abstract: During a communication, a channel is shared by several transmitting/receiving stations comprising a single master station and one or more slave stations. A station becomes a master station by transmitting traffic information on the channel. After the master station has stopped transmitting traffic information without the communication being concluded, it continues to transmit signaling information authorizing each slave station in turn to transmit traffic information on the channel. This transmission of signaling information continues for as long as the communication lasts, until one of the slave stations becomes the master station in turn by beginning to transmit traffic information on the channel or until the same station begins to transmit traffic information again, hereby remaining the master station.
