摘要:
A system and method for automatically generating and receiving notifications regarding accesses to documents in a shared repository, where the notifications are filtered such that they are only generated and/or received for accesses that match a personal interest profile of a local user. The personal interest profile of the local user includes a number of keywords determined to be of interest to the local user, as well as a number of important person identifiers associated with other users determined to be important to the local user. The system is operable to provide notifications in response to accesses by important other users to shared documents, including reading of those documents by the important other users.

A fuel injection system (18) is calibrated as an assembled system. The fuel injection system (18) includes a unit pump (10) a cam follower (24), a joined fuel injection line (14) and injection nozzle (16). The fuel injection system (18) is mounted to a test stand an is subsequently calibrated to a specified fuel delivery and timing. The relative positions of the unit pump (10) and fuel injection nozzle (16) are fixed during calibration. The assembled fuel injection system is packaged and delivered so that the calibrated system can be installed in the relative positions fixed during calibration.

An encapsulant for encapsulating electronic components and a method of making and/or using the encapsulant may be provided. An electronic device that includes the encapsulant may be provided. The curable encapsulant composition may include a mixture of a functionalized polymer and at least one reactive monomer composition. The reactive monomer composition may include a reactive monomer component that may be a low temperature solid and may be present in an amount in the reactive monomer composition a range of greater than about 20 weight percent based on the total weight of reactive monomer composition. The mixture, at about low temperature, may be solid or tack-free, or both solid and tack-free.
摘要:
A method, system and apparatus for the selective notification of incoming electronic messages. In this regard, a selective message notification method can include selectively generating a notification for a received message based upon pre-determined criteria irrespective of how the received message is handled. The pre-determined criteria can include a manually specified criteria, a rules based criteria, or a profile based criteria.

A method according to the invention is directed to the preparation of a 2-azadihydroxybicyclo�2.2.1!heptane compound of formula ##STR1## wherein * represents an R chirality, *' represents an S chirality, R is hydrogen or, respectively, a group of formula ##STR2## wherein R.sub.1 is alkyl and Ar is optionally substituted aryl, comprising bishydroxylating a bicyclo�2.2.1!heptene compound of formula ##STR3## wherein *, *' and R are as previously defined, in the presence of about 0.1 mol to about 5 mol % of a metal osmate compound or about 0.06 mol % to about 0.07 mol % osmium tetroxide, and an oxidizing agent capable of regenerating osmium tetroxide. The invention is also directed to the treatment of the (1R) diastereomer of the 2-azadihydroxybicyclo�2.2.1!heptane compound (I) wherein R is a group of formula II with L-tartaric acid, and the L-tartaric acid salt product thereof. Furthermore, the invention is directed to using the (1R) diastereomer of the 2-azadihydroxybicyclo�2.2.1!heptane compound in an acid facilitated acetalizing or ketalizing reaction that results in the protection of the dihydroxy moieties thereof in isopropanol. In addition, the invention is directed to oxidizing a bis O-protected derivative of the (1R) diastereomer of the 2-azadihydroxybicyclo�2.2.1!heptane compound to a corresponding lactam compound in the presence of about 0.01 mol % to about 1 mol % of RuO.sub.2 with about 3 equivalents of an oxidant to form the lactam compound with in an enantiomeric excess ("ee") of greater than or equal to about 95%.
摘要:
MEMS devices fabricated using inexpensive substrate materials such as paper or fabric, are provided. Using paper as a substrate, low cost, simple to prepare, lightweight, disposable piezoresistive sensors, including accelerometers are prepared. Signal-processing circuitry can also be patterned on the substrate material.The sensors can be utilized as two-dimensional sensors, or the paper substrate material can be folded to arrange the sensors in a three dimensional conformation. For example, three sensors can be patterned on a paper substrate and folded into a cube such that the three sensors are orthogonally positioned on the faces of a cube, permitting simultaneous measurement of accelerations along three orthogonal directions (x-y-z). These paper-based sensors can be mass produced by incorporating highly developed technologies for automatic paper cutting, folding, and screen-printing.Also provided are methods of modifying paper for use as a substrate material in MEMS devices.

A communication unit comprises a plurality of antenna element feeds (203, 205) for coupling to a plurality of antenna elements of an antenna array, where each antenna element feed comprises at least one coupler; and a plurality of transmitters operably coupled to the plurality of antenna element feeds. At least one transmitter of the plurality of transmitters comprises: an input for receiving a first signal and at least one second signal; beamformer logic arranged to apply independent beamform weights (RcfBF1, RcfBF2) on the first signal and the at least one second signal of the transmitter respectively, wherein each of the independent beamform weights is allocated on a per sector basis; and a signal combiner arranged to combine the first signal and the second signal to produce a combined signal, such as that the combined signal supports a plurality of sectored beams.
