Abstract: The invention relates to a suture guide device (1) for guiding two sutures (14, 15) through a wall of a membrane, balloon structure or a surface, in particular, of an artery of an individual in close proximity to the edge of an opening therein and for withdrawing said sutures from said opening, once they have been guided through the wall. The device comprises a suture feed section (3) located at the rear in the longitudinal direction, a front suture receiving section (4) and a central suture release/suture clamping section (5) positioned therebetween, which can be rotated at least in relation to the front suture receiving section (4). Said suture release/suture clamping section has a cross-section which allows it, in at least one rotational position, to introduce the sutures (14, 15) from the rear suture feed section (3) into the front suture receiving section (4) and which, in a different rotational position, secures the needles (12, 13) together with their sutures (14, 15) in the front suture receiving section (4).

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé pour limiter la durée de vie de datagrammes dans des réseaux à commutation par paquets. Selon l'invention, la valeur d'un champ « nombre de sauts » ne subit pas une modification égale à 1 lors de chaque franchissement d'un noeud de transfert, mais la modification de ce champ est effectuée en fonction de l'arrivée d'autres conditions, par exemple en fonction du trajet de transmission sélectionné par le noeud de transfert pour le paquet de données ou en fonction de la position du noeud de transfert dans le réseau. En fonction de l'arrivée d'une telle condition, le champ « nombre de sauts » peut également subir une modification supérieure à 1 bit.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne l'utilisation d'une série à bon rendement énergétique de colonnes de distillation réactives combinant masse et énergie et de colonnes de distillation pour produire du diaryl carbonate. L'utilisation du procédé et du dispositif de l'invention permet d'obtenir plus facilement des vitesses élevées de production du diaryl carbonate, et de récupérer plus aisément les substances de départ n'ayant pas réagi ainsi que les produits de réaction secondaire afin de les recycler à l'intérieur du processus de production de diaryl carbonates ou de les utiliser dans des réactions parallèles telles que des réactions de production de dialkyl carbonates. Le procédé fait intervenir l'utilisation de trois colonnes de distillation réactives et de deux colonnes de rectification qui sont reliées par une pluralité de connexions servant à transférer les réactifs et/ou les produits vers l'intérieur ou l'extérieur des colonnes.

Abstract: Communication among agile objects and context-bound objects within object-oriented programming environments, including communication across contextual boundaries, is disclosed. In one embodiment, a reference to a second object within a second context is wrapped in a proxy wrapper. A first object within a first context calls the second object via the wrapped reference. No direct reference is held by the first object to the second object. Other embodiments relate to agile objects. Agile objects called by context-bound objects execute in the contexts of their callers. The context of a calling context-bound object becomes the context of an agile object for calling of the agile object by the calling context-bound object. Direct reference to the agile object by the context-bound object is thus permitted.

Abstract: An engine-driven portable generator using an inverter may still generate a voltage at its output terminals even though the engine is stopped. In view of this problem, the invention is to provide a portable generator, which is intended to prevent any residual voltage from generating between the output terminals. That is, a portable generator rectifying once an AC voltage into a DC voltage, converting the DC voltage into a single-phase AC voltage, and outputting the single-phase AC voltage, which has an output-stop-control unit (443) that, when an operating switch (305) is turned off, stops the operation of the inverter circuit at the timing when the voltage between the output terminals drops to 0, is provided. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A pointing interface for natural human interaction with a display-based computer system includes a hand-manipulated pointer configured to permit it to be aimed by line of sight to point at any arbitrary position within the user's field of view, including positions beyond the user's natural reach, and to be swept along any arbitrary path and at any arbitrary speed within the user's natural capability. A detector detects emanations from at least some positions at which the pointer may be aimed. Circuitry identifies the locations of positions at which the user is aiming the pointer. The interface enables the user to point to a position within his field of view and beyond his reach, move his hand along any arbitrary path and at any arbitrary speed within the user's natural capability to point to another position, and so on, and to have the circuitry automatically identify the locations of the series of positions to which he has pointed. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A highback for controlling a gliding board, such as a snowboard, through leg movement of a rider. The highback is comprised of an upright support member including at least two portions that are to be contacted by and to support a rear portion of the rider's leg and that are movable relative to each other for setting a desired forward lean of the highback. The support member may include a lower portion with a pair of mounting locations for mounting the highback to a gliding board component, such as a snowboard binding, and an upper portion movably supported by the lower portion to vary the forward lean of the highback. The lower portion of the support member may be mounted to a snowboard binding baseplate for lateral rotation between a plurality of lateral positions. The highback may include a forward lean adjuster that prevents the upper portion from moving in the heel direction beyond a predetermined forward lean position. The forward lean adjuster may be coupled to the upper portion and the lower portion of the highback to maintain the upper portion in the selected forward lean position independent of the gliding board component. A locking arrangement may also be provided to lock the highback in an upright riding position to prevent toe-edge travel relative to the board for enhanced board response.

Abstract: A telecommunications network has first and second entities ( 20 <SUB>1 </SUB>and 20 <SUB>2</SUB>) which communicate by sending a packet ( 22 ) having a compressed header ( 24' ). A header compression key ( 23 ) is associated with (e.g., included in) the packet. The header compression key has a first field ( 23 A) which, in a first mode of the invention, is utilized exclusively for distinguishing between different flows of compressed packets (CIDs). In a second mode of the invention, the first field ( 23 A) of the header compression key can be utilized either for distinguishing between the different flows of compressed packets or for distinguishing between different header compression identifiers. Whether the first field of the header compression key is employed exclusively for distinguishing between different flows of compressed packets (the first mode) or can also be employed for distinguishing between different header compression identifiers (second mode) depends on a value in a second field ( 23 B) of the header compression key. In the second mode, a first subset of values for the first field of the header compression key is employed to distinguish between different header compression identifiers, while a second subset of values for the first field is employed to distinguish between the different flows of compressed packets.

Abstract: A system for separating biological molecules includes a chip ( 10 ) on which there is an electrophoresis separation microchannel ( 16 ). At the start of the channel there is an isoelectric focusing section ( 14 ) containing a gel having a pH gradient. Molecules to be separated are placed in the focusing section ( 14 ) and move to an equilibrium position under the influence of an electric field. The electrophoretic state of the molecules is then changed, and a high voltage potential applied across the entire length of the focusing and separation sections. The molecules migrate under the influence of the electric field from the focusing section into the separation section where their position and velocity are tracked. From a knowledge of position and velocity, a user can determine both charge/mass ratio and isoelectric equilibrium point for each molecule. The gels can be replicated in the chip to allow parallel analysis, and hence comparisons, to take place.
