Patent EP-1402208-A2 (EP)
Inventor: HEREN N LAWRENCE
IPC: F16K31/385

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un robinet à commande à effleurement permettant d'établir un écoulement de fluide entre un conduit d'entrée et un conduit de sortie. Ce robinet comporte un cylindre d'écoulement définissant une chambre d'entrée en communication fluidique avec le conduit d'entrée, et une chambre de sortie en communication fluidique avec le conduit de sortie. Le cylindre d'écoulement comporte une platine d'extrémité et une platine intermédiaire équipée d'une bague centrale à orifice. Une membrane souple est montée, la face occlusive en contact la bague de façon à réaliser l'étanchéité. Un bord de la membrane est couplé à la platine intermédiaire. Cette membrane comporte un trou de petit diamètre établissant un contact fluidique entre la chambre d'entrée et une chambre intermédiaire définie par la platine intermédiaire du cylindre d'écoulement. Un piston placé sur la membrane sert à créer l'étanchéité avec la face opposée de la membrane vue depuis la face occlusive. Le piston est relié à l'extrémité d'une tige passant par l'orifice de la membrane. Un ressort est monté entre la platine d'extrémité du cylindre d'écoulement et la face de contact du piston. Une poussée s'exerçant sur la tige amène le piston à se séparer de la membrane, ce qui crée une pression de fluide sur la face de contact de la membrane de façon à pousser le piston vers l'extrémité de la platine d'extrémité, ce qui comprime le ressort et amène la membrane à se séparer de la bague, et ainsi le fluide à s'écouler dans la chambre de sortie depuis la chambre d'entrée en traversant l'orifice. La suppression de l'action sur la tige amène le ressort à se décomprimer, ce qui force le piston et la membrane à s'écarter de la platine d'extrémité, rétablissant ainsi l'étanchéité entre la face occlusive et la bague de façon à empêcher l'écoulement du fluide de la chambre intermédiaire vers la chambre de sortie.

Title: Caracterisation des stimuli biologiques par courbes de reponse
Inventor: ADAMS CYNTHIA L
IPC: G16C20/80
Filed: 2002-02-20
Abstract: L'invention concerne une méthode destinée à générer des courbes de réponse à des stimuli (par ex. des courbes de réponse à une dose) et permettant de mettre en évidence le changement du phénotype d'une ou plusieurs cellules en réponse à différentes intensités de stimulus. Chaque « point » de la courbe représente le phénotype quantitatif d'une ou plusieurs cellules pour une intensité de stimulus donnée (par ex. une dose de médicament). Les phénotypes quantitatifs constituent des représentations phénotypiques multifactorielles de la (ou des) cellule(s). Ils incluent différentes caractéristiques de la (ou des) cellule(s) obtenues par analyse d'images. Parmi ces caractéristiques figurent souvent des paramètres de base obtenus à partir d'images (ex : forme de la cellule, zone du noyau, texture de Golgi) et/ou de caractéristiques biologiques dérivées des paramètres de base (ex : état du cycle cellulaire, indice mitotique, etc.). Il est possible de comparer les courbes de réponse à des stimuli pour établir une classification des stimuli et identifier des différences subtiles entre les stimuli apparentés. Pour faciliter cette comparaison, il est souhaitable de représenter les courbes de réponse dans un espace de composants principal.

Abstract: L'invention concerne les programmes enrichis par des applications. Elle concerne, en outre, les systèmes de production et de diffusion associés, notamment la télévision numérique interactive. Aujourd'hui, l'activation d'une application interactive associée à un programme diffusée peut se faire de manière manuelle dans la chaîne de diffusion. Cette solution est coûteuse, manque de précision, et la commande de l'application est géré non pas par la chaîne de production mais la chaîne de diffusion. L'invention propose donc d'utiliser un signal de programme de diffusion comportant des données primaires pour la reproduction du contenu principal passif du programme et des données secondaires tatouées dans les données primaires. Ces données secondaires comportent les commandes de déclenchement d'au moins une application telle que, notamment, le contrôle d'un ou plusieurs paramètres de diffusion dudit signal de programme et/ou d'une ou plusieurs applications, par exemple interactives ou de diffusion, liées audit signal de programme.

Abstract: A standoff chemical agent detection system passively detects chemical agents in a scene. Interferograms are generated from received scene spectral information. In one embodiment, the spectral information is apodized, and a chirp Fast Fourier Transform is performed on the interferogram. A calibration curve is applied to correct gain and offset, and a feature vector is generated based on comparison of the normalized spectrum to predetermined chemical shape templates. The feature vector is provided to a classifier to identify the existence and identity of a chemical agent threat. The chemical agent detection system utilizes a lower resolution search mode, and a higher resolution confirmation mode, wherein both modes utilize the same detection algorithms. The neural network is trained using a large database of training data. The network is iteratively trained using partially random subsets of the training data. Problematic data from previous subsets is included in further subsets to improve the training.

Abstract: A system and method (44) for focusing an image oriented in an arbitrary direction
when the collected synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data is processed using range migration
algorithm (RMA). In accordance with the teachings of the present invention, first (60) the
data is skewed so that the direction of smearing in the image is aligned with one of the
spatial frequency axes of the image. In the illustrative embodiment, the smearing is aligned
in the vertical direction. This is done through a phase adjustment that was derived from the
requirements for proper shift in the spatial frequency domain. Next (62), the signal support
areas from all targets are aligned by proper phase adjustment in the spatial (or image)
domain. Finally (64), the common phase error can be corrected using autofocus algorithms.

Abstract: To measure a chromatic dispersion value in an optical fiber
in-service, an optical transmitter (10) multiplexes n signal lights
carrying data Dl to Dn on optical carriers of frequency-modulated
wavelengths different from each other and being phase-modulated
to output into an optical fiber (12). A demultiplexer (30)
demultiplexes the input light from the optical fiber (12) into the
optical signals having the respective wavelengths. Photodetectors
(32-1 to 32-n) convert the optical signals having the respective
wavelengths into electric signals. Clock extractors (34-1 to 34-n)
extract clock components of data D1 to Dn out of the outputs from
the responding photodetectors (32-1 to 32-n). Data reproducers
(36-1 to 36-n) reproduce the data Dl to Dn out of the respective
outputs from the photodetectors (32-1 to 32-n). A phase-locked
loop (PLL) composed of oscillators (38-1 to 38-n), multipliers (40-1
to 40-n), and loop filters (42-1 to 42-n) extracts FM modulation
components out of the respective outputs from the clock extractors
(34-1 to 34-n). FM component measuring apparatuses (44-1 to 44-n)
measure amplitudes of FM modulation components and FM modulation
frequencies, and calculators (46-1 to 46-n) calculate chromatic
dispersion values at the respective wavelengths.

Abstract: An onboard fuel separation apparatus separates a
material fuel (gasoline) into a high-octane fuel having a
higher octane value than the material fuel and a low-octane
fuel having a lower octane value than the material
fuel using a separation membrane which selectively allows
high-octane value components (such as aromatic
components) permeate through the membrane. The apparatus
increases the ratio of the amount of the high-octane
value components permeating through the membrane to the
amount of the high-octane value components contained in
the material fuel by, (A) Controlling the temperature of
the material fuel supplied to the membrane (B) Increasing
partial pressure of the low-octane value components on
the high-octane fuel side of the membrane and removing
volatiles from the permeate, and (C) Bypassing volatiles
in the material feed around the membrane.

Abstract: A multi-threaded embedded processor that includes an on-chip
deterministic (e.g., scratch or locked cache) memory that
persistently stores all instructions associated with one or more
pre-selected high-use threads. The processor executes general
(non-selected) threads by reading instructions from an
inexpensive external memory, e.g., by way of an on-chip standard
cache memory, or using other potentially slow, non-deterministic
operation such as direct execution from that external memory that
can cause the processor to stall while waiting for instructions
to arrive. When a cache miss or other blocking event occurs
during execution of a general thread, the processor switches to
the pre-selected thread, whose execution with zero or minimal
delay is guaranteed by the deterministic memory, thereby
utilizing otherwise wasted processor cycles until the blocking
event is complete.

Abstract: An electronic color image capture system includes an optical section for separating an input image into its separate color content and directing the separate color content toward an imaging section, which generates a plurality of color image signals from the input image. The spectral responses of the optical section and the imaging section are selected so as to cascade together to provide all-positive, symmetrical system curves modeled upon red, green and blue color matching functions representative of the human visual system. The color matching functions are derived from three monochromatic light sources and contain no more than three positive lobes as well as one or more negative lobes, wherein the areas under the color matching functions determined by (a) summation of all negative lobes and (b) overlap between the green and red color matching functions are minimized. The color image signals are processed with a color correction matrix with coefficients optimized for signal-to-noise performance for producing an output color image exhibiting an accurate color reproduction of the input image.

Abstract: A system and method for remote asynchronous replication or mirroring of
changes in a source file system snapshot in a destination replica file system using a scan
(via a scanner) of the blocks that make up two versions of a snapshot of the source file
system, which identifies changed blocks in the respective snapshot files based upon
differences in volume block numbers identified in a scan of the logical file block index
of each snapshot. Trees of blocks associated with the files are traversed, bypassing
unchanged pointers between versions and walking down to identify the changes in the
hierarchy of the tree. These changes are transmitted to the destination mirror or
replicated snapshot. This technique allows regular files, directories, inodes and any
other hierarchical structure to be efficiently scanned to determine differences between
versions thereof. The changes in the files and directories are transmitted over the
network for update of the replicated destination snapshot in an asynchronous (lazy
write) manner. The changes are described in an extensible, system-independent data
stream format layered under a network transport protocol. At the destination, source
changes are used to update the destination snapshot. Any deleted or modified inodes
already on the destination are moved to a temporary or "purgatory" directory and, if
reused, are relinked to the rebuilt replicated snapshot directory. The source file system
snapshots can be representative of a volume sub-organization, such as a qtree.

Abstract: A method of fabricating a CMOS device with reduced processing costs as a
result of a reduction in photolithographic masking procedures, has been developed.
The method features formation of L shaped silicon oxide spacers on the sides of
gate structures, with a vertical spacer component located on the sides of the gate
structure, and with horizontal spacer components located on the surface of the
semiconductor substrate with a thick horizontal spacer component located adjacent
to the gate structures, while a thinner horizontal spacer component is located
adjacent to the thicker horizontal spacer component. After formation of a block out
shape in a PMOS region of the CMOS device, a high angle implantation procedure
is used to form a P type halo region in a top portion of the NMOS region, followed by
another implantation procedure performed at lower implant angles, resulting in an N
type LDD region in a portion of the NMOS region underlying the thicker horizontal
spacer component, and resulting in an N type heavily doped source/drain region in a
portion of the NMOS underlying the thinner horizontal spacer component. Another
block out shape, and another series of similar implantation procedures is performed
to create the halo, LDD and source/drain regions in the PMOS region. After
formation of a photoresist block out shape on specific CMOS regions, a composite
insulator spacer is formed on the sides of gate structures not covered by the
photoresist shape, followed by formation of metal silicide on the gate structures and
source/drain regions not covered by the photoresist block out shape.
