Abstract:
A security system architecture and method of operation that combines a local security network with control panel and sensors, a central monitoring station (CMS), and a separate operator computer server that provides a web portal for both the homeowner and CMS, that maintains a persistent connection between the control panel and CMS allowing failsafe dual-path signaling. This dual-path signaling technique is extended to provide an effective “smash and grab alarm”, and various approaches to dual-path signal management are disclosed including handshaking, persistent domain monitoring, relayed Operator 3-to-CMS signaling, etc. Improved processes for remotely accessing video are also disclosed along with an improved process for remote control panel configuration, and control panel interfacing with home automation appliances.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to compounds of formula 1 or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, wherein one of R1 and R2 is methyl, ethyl or isopropyl, and the other is H; R3 and R4 are each independently H, branched or unbranched C1-C6 alkyl, or aryl, and wherein at least one of R3 and R4 is other than H; R5 is a branched or unbranched C1-C5 alkyl group or a C1-C6 cycloalkyl group, each of which may be optionally substituted with one or more OH groups; R6, R7, R8 and R9 are each independently H, halogen, NO2, OH, OMe, CN, NH2, COOH, CONH2, or SO2NH2. A further aspect of the invention relates to pharmaceutical compositions comprising compounds of formula 1, and the use of said compounds in treating proliferative disorders, viral disorders, stroke, alopecia, CNS disorders, neurodegenerative disorders, or diabetes.

Abstract:
The present invention provides a method of detecting an enzyme in a sample wherein the enzyme is capable of adding or removing a chemical moiety to or from a nucleic acid molecule, which thereby confers altered sensitivity of the nucleic acid molecule in a subsequent process. The invention also relates to diagnostic methods which take advantage of the method of the invention and kits which are useful for carrying out the method of the invention.

Abstract:
A system transmits digital data over an optical fiber at high aggregate data rates and high bandwidth efficiencies. The system includes a modulation stage, a frequency division multiplexer, and an optical modulator. The modulation stage QAM-modulates a plurality of incoming digital data channels. The frequency division multiplexer combines the QAM-modulated signals by frequency division multiplexing them into an RF signal. The optical modulator uses the RF signal to modulate an optical carrier for transmission over an optical fiber.
Abstract:
A double wall hot gas path part for turbines, such as an airfoil, combustor, duct or shroud, comprises an outer skin and an inner support wall that are metallurgically bonded to one another. The double wall contains integral channels for passage of cooling air adjacent to the skin. The skin may be a metal alloy skin or a microlaminate structure, including microlaminate composite structures. Microlaminate composites typically have a lower density than that of the material used for the support wall, and a simplified internal geometry, which promote weight reductions in the parts and increases in engine operating efficiency.
Abstract:
A method for making double-wall airfoil for applications such as the blades and vanes of gas turbine engines by depositing an airfoil skin over an inner support wall which is separately formed and contains channels filled by a channel filling means. The channel filling means is removed thereby forming integral channels within the double-wall for circulating a cooling gas adjacent to the airfoil skin. The airfoil skin deposited may be a metal alloy skin or a microlaminate structure, including microlaminate composite structures.
Abstract:
A lamp burning a vaporizable oil produces both a steady light and a regularly recurring bright flash. The lamp has a non-combustible wick in a cooled metal tubular wick holder, the upper part of the wick holder being surrounded by an open-topped combustion chamber which extends inwardly towards a pilot flame on the wick. Heating of the combustion chamber induces air flow causing an explosive mixture to form in the chamber; this is ignited by the pilot flame to give a bright flash.
