摘要： The present invention includes aspects of a designer program or tool for customizing a clinical trial program to a particular protocol of a particular clinical trial. The designer program includes visual cues or mechanisms for organizing trial components within the designer program in a straightforward manner such that technically low skilled designers can implement often complex trial protocols. In an embodiment, the designer program includes validation scripts that test functions, derivations, queries and the like. Moreover, use of the designer program can include development of trial libraries that can make customizations reusable, scalable, and highly efficient.

摘要： A membrane-based gas separation process for treating gas streams that contain methane in low concentrations. The invention involves flowing the stream to be treated across the feed side of a membrane and flowing a sweep gas stream, usually air, across the permeate side. Carbon dioxide permeates the membrane preferentially and is picked up in the sweep air stream on the permeate side; oxygen permeates in the other direction and is picked up in the methane-containing stream. The resulting residue stream is enriched in methane as well as oxygen and has an EMC value enabling it to be either flared or combusted by mixing with ordinary air.

摘要： An economically attractive method to tap low-level electric power from any power line is disclosed. The invention captures power for low consumption electronic components such as communication repeaters and remote sensors. The device snaps onto any power line and functions as a parasitic current transformer. It captures the dynamic magnetic energy that is created by electric current as it flows through the power line and concentrates the resulting magnetic flux into a region where the energy is converted to electricity in a pick-up coil. The difference between the disclosed device and a conventional transformer is that the magnetic flux that is set up in the low-reluctance material of the former originates from alternating current on a power line phase and not from a primary transformer winding as in the latter.

摘要： A retractable cover for a slide-out unit on a recreational vehicle, mobile home, travel trailer, or the like, includes a roll bar that is movable with the slide-out unit away from the side of the vehicle with the roll bar mounted in a housing having a closure plate which is easily pivoted to an open position or removed to facilitate maintenance or removal of debris that may accumulate in the housing during a retraction of the cover. The housing is mounted on the slide-out unit with brackets permitting the brackets to be located at any position along the length of the housing and also permitting the housing to assume a length that is much greater than the width of the slide-out unit providing a better cover for the slide-out unit during inclement weather.

摘要： Known techniques to improve metal-oxide-semiconductor field effect transistor (MOSFET) performance is to add a high stress dielectric layer to the MOSFET. The high stress dielectric layer introduces stress in the MOSFET that causes electron mobility drive current to increase. This technique increases process complexity, however, and can degrade PMOS performance. Embodiments of the present invention create dislocation loops in the MOSFET substrate to introduce stress and implants nitrogen in the substrate to control the growth of the dislocation loops so that the stress remains beneath the channel of the MOSFET.

摘要： A system and method are disclosed for detecting tampering with the software, software parameters, and calibration data used by a vehicle controller. During authorized installation of controller memory images, a hash function is applied to selected regions of controller memory to obtain stored hash values. Then, periodically during operation of the vehicle, the hash function is applied to the then-current contents of the controller memory to obtain calculated hash values. If the stored hash values stored do not match the calculated hash values, a fault is logged for future retrieval by service personnel.
