摘要:
The present invention is an electronically controlled wide band vibrating tampon (ECWVT) apparatus to provide relief from feminine menstrual cramps and comprises a controllable vibration generator with selectable wide band vibration sources, an electromechanical transducer aka a vibration transmitter, and a disposable vibration transmitting tampon head (VTTH) to be inserted into the user's vaginal canal for customized and maximized relief from a user's menstrual cramps. Since only the VTTH is disposable and all other parts are reusable, the disposable cost is minimized.

A system and method that facilitates processing and/or routing of emergency call in an IMS (IP Multimedia Subsystem) for VoIP (Voice over IP) subscribers is provided. Specifically, an E911 profile is generated, for example, by an application server, for each VoIP subscriber based in part on current location information associated with the subscriber, such as, the subscriber's IP address. The E911 profile is pushed to the HSS (Home Subscriber Server) of the IMS. The E911 profile can then be stored in the HSS and can be queried by an E-CSCF (Emergency Call Session Control Function) during emergency call processing. Moreover, when an emergency call is received from the subscriber, the E-CSCF can retrieve the E911 profile associated with the subscriber from the HSS and route the call to an appropriate PSAP (Public Safety Answering Point) based on an analysis of the information in the E911 profile.
摘要:
The present invention relates to the elucidation that TRPML3 is involved in salty taste perception in primates including humans and likely other mammals and based thereon high-throughput mammalian and medium-throughput oocyte-based electrophysiological assays for identifying human TRPML3 modulators, preferably TRPML3 enhancers. Compounds that modulate TRPML3 function in the assay are expected to affect salty taste in humans. The inventive electrophysiological assays, such as the two-electrode voltage-clamp technique, facilitate the identification of compounds which specifically modulate human TRPML3. The assays of the invention provide a robust screen useful to detect compounds that facilitate (enhance) or inhibit TRPML3 function. Compounds that enhance or block TRPML3 channel activity should thereby modulate salty taste. In addition, these compounds may be used to regulate sodium excretion, urinary output and other biological functions relating to sodium levels and TRPML3 related functions.

A method and apparatus for providing customer controlled traffic redistribution are disclosed. For example, the method determines one or more states of one or more Customer Premise Equipments (CPEs) at one or more customer sites periodically, wherein the one or more states are configured by a customer. The method then determines a network action for each of the one or more CPEs in accordance with the one or more states of the one or more CPEs, and routes traffic for the customer in accordance with the network action for each of the one or more CPEs.

Systems and methods provide virtual CSCFs in an IMS system. The Virtual CSCFs may be virtual S-CSCFs or virtual P-CSCFs. A master virtual CSCF may be used to distribute subscriber data and initial filter criteria to the virtual CSCFs in a group. Thus one of multiple servers may be used for processing call sessions for the same subscriber, thereby avoiding overloading a particular CSCF in an IMS system.

Techniques to track and publish changes to object instances. For an “outbound process” to publish object instances, a list of object instances is initially received. For each received object instance, a determination is made whether or not the object instance has changed since its last publication. For each changed object instance, a delta snapshot is generated and includes data indicative of changes between the current and last published versions of the object instance. Delta snapshots for all changed object instances are then published. For an “inbound process” to receive object instances, the published delta snapshots are initially received. For each received delta snapshot, the corresponding object instance is retrieved and updated with the changes included in the delta snapshot. A new snapshot is also generated for each updated object instance such that the received changes are not published, and unpublished changes made locally are noted for subsequent publication.
摘要:
A method for controlling the rotational speed of a cooling fan in an electronic system is disclosed, wherein the electronic system comprises a CPU, a cooling module comprising the cooling fan and a cooling fin. The method includes measuring the voltage of the CPU to obtain the power of the CPU, obtaining a first rotational speed based on the power of the CPU, and correcting the first rotational speed based on stored characteristic parameter(s) of the electronic system. An electronic system utilizing the method is further disclosed.
摘要:
Nucleic acid sequences encoding novel splice variants that encode subunits of an ENaC expressed in human taste tissue are provided. These splice variants when expressed in association with other ENaC subunits, i.e., α, β and γ subunits or α, β and Δ subunits may be used to produce amiloride-insensitive ENACs. The resultant amiloride-insensitive ENaCs are useful in in vitro assays for identifying ENaC modulators that modulate taste (enhance or inhibit), particularly human salty taste.

The present invention relates to methods for the cryopreservation of transformed and non-transformed cells. Also provided by the subject invention are methods of recovering cells that have been cryopreserved. Cultures of cells that have been successfully recovered from cryopreservation are also provided.
