Patent EP-1402445-A2 (EP)
Inventor: BRIZEK JOHN
IPC: G06F21/00
Filed: 2002-09-18
Abstract: An electronic transaction may be implemented in a fashion that allows the security burden to be adjustably set based on the nature of the transaction. By receiving information about the type of transaction, a system may implement a variable security protocol. For example, the higher the value of the transaction, the greater the security protocol that may be implemented. Of course in such case, the higher security protocol may result in greater overhead or burden to the users. In other cases when the nature of the transaction permits, a lower security burden may be applied.
Patent EP-1446671-A2 (EP)
Inventor: ADAMS SCOTT G
IPC: G01P15/125
Filed: 2002-10-16
Abstract: An accelerometer (100) comprising a silicon wafer is etched to form a fixed portion (400), a movable portion (300), and a resilient coupling (120) between, the fixed and movable portions generally arranged in the plane of the wafer, the mass of the movable portion being concentrated on one side of the resilient coupling. One of the fixed and moveable portions of the silicon structure includes a first electrode. The other of the fixed and moveable portions includes a second electrode oriented parallel to the axis of acceleration, and an electrically-conductive layer electrically connected as a third electrode coplanar and mechanically coupled with the second electrode. The second and third electrodes are arranged in capacitive opposition to the first electrode, the capacitance between the first electrode and third electrode increasing as the movable portion moves in a direction along the axis of acceleration relative to the fixed portion and decreasing as the movable portion moves in an opposite direction. A resilient coupling retains the first and third electrodes in capacitive opposition to each other across a capacitance gap while allowing motion of the first electrode relative to the second and third electrodes in response to acceleration along an axis of acceleration perpendicular to the plane of the wafer, and resiliently restores the first electrode to an equilibrium position when the acceleration ceases. The second electrode is in opposition to a majority of the surface area of the first electrode when the electrodes are in the equilibrium position. Capacitance between the first and third electrodes is measured to obtain a measurement of acceleration along the axis.

Abstract: The active matrix display device has a thin film transistor
and a pixel electrode (24), which is provided with a pixel
voltage through the thin film transistor, for each of pixels.
A supplemental pixel electrode (40), which is connected to
the pixel electrode (24) of one of the pixels adjacent to
each other, and which extends to the region between the two
pixels adjacent to each other, is also disposed. The supplemental
pixel electrode (40) enables the region between the
pixels to be used as a part of the display region. The liquid
crystal of this region is also driven by the voltage same as
the pixel electrode (24). The configuration of the peripheral
circuit of the pixel portion is simplified, reducing the
framing area of the panel. In an alternative embodiment a floating
electrode (41) covers a region between two adjacent pixels and
is capacitatively coupled to the pixel electrodes of those pixels
via an insulating layer (72).

Abstract: A method for verifying data in a storage system is disclosed. A
host computer transmits area management data to a storage controller. The
area management data specifies a range of a storage area in a storage
device to be used by an application program having a mechanism for
verifying data suitability. Upon receipt of an input/output request
transmitted from the host computer, the storage controller performs
verification, which is usually performed by the application program, of
the data that is to be processed according to the data input/output
request and to be input/output to/from the storage area, which is
specified in accordance with the received area management data.

Abstract: The blow out (BOP) preventer adapter (152) of the invention has a main
body having top and bottom ends, said bottom end arranged and designed
for connection to a standard xmas tree (150) re-entry hub (151), said top end

Abstract: Infektionen insbesondere Harnwegsinfekte sind aufgrund beängstigend zunehmender Resistenzen gegenüber Antibiotika ein gesundheitliches und auch enorme Kosten verursachendes Problem. Untersuchungen ergeben bei vorsichtiger Einschätzung 5-6 Millionen Patienten in Europa, die durch das Risiko einer aufsteigenden Harnwegsinfektion akut gefährdet sind. Insbesondere bei chronischen Infektionen werden mit einem enormen Behandlungsaufwand und die Nachteile einer oralen Medikation, die den gesamten Organismus belasten, Infekte behandelt. Die neue Innovationsidee, mit Hilfe eines silberdotierten Harnblasenimplantats Infektionen zu verhindern, zielt darauf ab, Keime, die zu 95% über die Harnröhre in den Blasenraum gelangen, schon im Eingangsbereich der Harnblase auszuschalten. Mit einem solchen Verfahren kann nicht nur über einem Zeitraum von vielen Monaten eine Infektion verhindert, sondern darüber hinaus auch eine bestehende behandelt werden. Der ausschlaggebende Vorteil der erfindungsgemässen Lösung ist jedoch die Tatsache, dass keine Antibiotika mehr eingesetzt werden müssen, also keine resistenten Bakterienstämme mehr entstehen können.
