Abstract: The present invention provides a method of cryopreserving sperm that have
been selected for a specific characteristic. In a preferred embodiment, the method is
employed to freeze sex-selected sperm. Although the cryopreservation method of
the invention can be used to freeze sperm selected by any number of selection
methods, selection using flow cytometry is preferred. The present invention also
provides a frozen sperm sample that has been selected for a particular characteristic,
such as sex-type. In preferred embodiments, the frozen sperm sample includes
mammalian sperm, such as, for example, human, bovine, equine, porcine, ovine, elk
or bison sperm. The frozen selected sperm sample can be used in a variety of
applications. In particular, the sample can be thawed and used for fertilization.
Accordingly, the invention also includes a method of using the frozen selected sperm
sample for artificial insemination or  in vitro  fertilization.

Abstract: A machine tool (10) has a work table (14) which defines a working surface (16) and has a cutting tool (22) which is attached to and movable with respect to the work table (14). The position of the cutting tool (22) with respect to the working surface (16) is controlled by a mechanism (26) which elevates the cutting tool (22) with respect to the working surface (16) and angulates the cutting tool (22) with respect to the working surface (16). The cutting tool (22) is mounted to a support plate (34) which is pivotably attached to the work table (14). The elevating mechanism (26) includes a threaded rod (116) and a nut (114) which engages a pivoting link (110). The pivoting link (110) also engages the cutting tool (22). Rotation of the threaded rod (116) pivots the link (110) which in turn raises and lowers the cutting tool (22). A spring (112) biases the cutting tool (22) towards its lower position to remove play between the components. The angulating mechanism (24) includes a lever, two cams (66,68) and a locking rod (62). Rotation of the lever moves the locking rod (62) longitudinally due to the action between the two cams (66,68). The longitudinal movement of the rod (62) compresses the support plate (34) between the work table (14) and a bracket (72) to maintain the position of the support plate (34) with respect to the work table (14). Also included is an integral arbor wrench (190) which is accessible when the throat plate (18) is removed to lock the arbor (138) to facilitate tool changing. The wrench (190) is designed to not allow reassembling of the throat plate (18) when the wrench (190) is in engagement with the arbor shaft (138).

Abstract: Multi-level programming (30-42) allows for writing a first and a second bit in selected cells (3) by separately programming (30-32) a first bit (LSB) from a second bit (MSB). Programming (30-32) of the first bit determines a shifting (32) from a first threshold level (A) to a second threshold level (B); programming (36-42) of the second bit requires a preliminary reading (36-40) to detect whether the first bit (LSB) has been modified; performing a first writing step (42) to bring the cell to a third threshold voltage (C) if the first bit has been modified and performing a second writing step (42) to bring the selected cell to a fourth threshold voltage (D) different from the third threshold level if the first bit has not been modified. The memory array (2) divided into a first portion (2a) where data are stored using multiple threshold levels corresponding to a plurality of bits, and a second portion (2b) where data are stored using two threshold levels corresponding to a single bit. For increasing reading and program reliability, during preliminary reading (40) of the second portion (2b) a reading result is forced to correspond to the first threshold level.

Abstract: Methods and systems are disclosed for space interleaved communication of data in a multiple antenna communication system. Data is interleaved over space by interleaving the data over a plurality of transmit branches in the multiple antenna system. The disclosed spatial interleaving increases the performance gains resulting from the spatial transmit diversity of the multiple antenna communication system. Spatial interleaving can be performed, for example, over the bits before the bits are interleaved over frequency. In another variation, spatial interleaving is performed over the symbols after the bits are mapped to symbols.

Providing at least a first and a second digital or digitalized image or set of cross-sectional images of the same object; Defining within one image a certain number of landmarks by selecting a certain number of pixels or voxels to be tracked; Tracking the position of each pixel or voxel selected from one to another image of said set of images by determining the relative displacements; Registering the set of images by applying the inverse displacement to the pixels or voxels between the images of said set of images. 
     Furthermore a region of interest, a so called ROI is defined by manually or automatically drawing a closed or open line on one image of at least two images, which line corresponds to the border of the said region of interest and one or more pixel or voxel which represents reference points to be tracked within the region of interest are selected; For each one of the said landmarks the displacement is estimated of the said landmark from one image to a following or previous image and calculating the amount of local displacement of the said landmarks from a first to a second image of the sequence of images and the morphological and motion evolution of the entire region of interest is reconstructed by means of the local displacements calculated for each landmark by applying the inverse evolution function of the morphological features and of the motion of the entire region of interest.

Abstract: A method and apparatus is described for a free space optical communication link that transmits and receives an optical signal using phase incoherent light. In one embodiment, the phase incoherent light source may be a Superluminescent Light Emitting Diode (SLED). Use of phase incoherent light reduces signal scintillation by significantly reducing speckle in the transmitted signal. The result is an optical link that does not need an adaptive optical control loop to correct for speckle and that may modularly replace conventional laser-based phase-coherent free space optical links typically used in free space optical link systems. Use of the described apparatus and methods results in reduced system size, reduced system weight, reduced system complexity, reduced power consumption, a lower initial system cost, a reduced failure rate, a decreased bit error rate, lower lifecycle maintenance costs, greater reliability, greater link availability, increased link throughput and improved network performance.
