摘要:
Methods and apparatus permit a one-way downloadable security for electronic signals such as cable television, free-to-air, direct broadcast satellite, electronic device enablement, and other services. The system can allow a broadcast transmission capability (1) to provide an encrypted signal to an individual reception capability (2) in a manner that maintains the full security of a traditional decryption key process while completely eliminating any need for a trusted authority. By including a nascent decryption key generator that may create a secure, key-based environment from an unsecure individualized information transmission (12), a sequence of key(s) from a root key(s) to a derived key(s) to a temporary key(s) and ultimately to a fully random key(s) can be generated in activating a device or a decryption capability for a subscriber.

A rapid authorization system (22) for subscriber programming authorization with high levels of security can include entitlement management messages (23) that direct fluctuation of an existing package with a communication structure that may involve a primary service directive indicator (3) that is altered, transformed, or fluctuated by a secondary service directive indicator (4) or more. Terse, high entropy directives and entitlement management messages can be transmitted and a multi-channel broadcast programming fluctuation processor (9) at a multi¬ channel broadcast receiver (8) can act to achieve the proper authorization. A conditional access system can be provided through existing, even one-way or SSL, communication pathways with high levels of security. Large subscriber base a Ia carte options can be provided with rapid authorization that may include nonce programming collective storage (26) for use with a fluctuation entitlement management message transmission.

The invention relates to a droplet actuator device and methods for integrated sample preparation and analysis of a biological sample. A droplet actuator device is provided for conducting droplet operations. The droplet actuator device may include a bottom substrate and a top substrate separated from each other to form a gap therebetween; an arrangement of droplet operations electrodes arranged on one or both of the bottom and/or top substrates for conducting droplet operations thereon; a reagent storage layer comprising one or more compartments bound to the top substrate; and one or more openings arranged to provide a fluidic path from the one or more compartments into the gap, upon breach of a breachable seal separating the one or more compartments and openings.

A mechanical stapling device (10) for fastening deep tissue during the closing of peritoneal side of a stab wound, which is associated with a laparoscopic surgical procedure, is provided. Also provided is a unique staple (72) for use with the stapling device (10) of the present invention. A method of using the device (10) and staple (72) of the present invention is also provided.
摘要:
GPS system for both generating and receiving multiple differential corrections from a single broadcast transmission may involve FM subcarrier modulations at any carrier frequency or subcarrier offset to provide multiple differential correction signals having varying accuracy. Signals may be generated by a subcarrier generator (32) and may be adjusted by some encryption means (18) and then accepted by some enablement means (17) including a controllable address signal so as to be provided on a subscription basis. Subcarrier transmissions are provided for in overlapping manner for redundancy and with either separate or interleaved differential signals so as to be able to both broadcast differential corrections and informational signals using existing equipment and FM stations at any available offset with both uplink and downlink capabilities through a variety of capabilities including a modem (38) or a satellite dish (39). Similarly at least one FM receiver (10) component is included within a traditional GPS receiver (9) to simultaneously receive, scan, locate, and compare differential signals for more accurate determination of location in a reliable and optimum manner and at differing locations.

The present invention relates to pharmaceutical compositions of an non-steroidal anti- inflammatory drug (NSAIDs) such as, aspirin, diclofenac, ibuprofen, ketoprofen, or naproxen, or any pharmaceutically acceptable salts, solvates, or prodrugs thereof, and the medical use of these compositions. The compositions, which can be formulated for topical administration, can provide extended release of the NSAIDs. The compositions of the invention are useful, for example, in the prophylactic treatment or treatment and/or reduction of pain, in the prophylactic treatment or treatment of headaches such as migraine headaches and symptoms of migraine headaches, and in the treatment of temporomandibular disorders (TMD).

The invention relates to a droplet actuator for conducting droplet operations. The actuator includes a bottom substrate and a top substrate separated from the bottom substrate to form a gap. An arrangement of droplet operations electrodes may be located on a surface of the bottom substrate and/or top substrate. Optionally, a sample reservoir may hold a quantity of a sample fluid containing cells. A disruption device which can take various forms is used to lyse the cells in the sample or in a sample droplet to thereby conduct operations on samples having lysed cells therein.
摘要:
Discrete bodies of glass-forming raw materials are formed by agglomerating techniques such as briquetting. These bodies are preheated or prereacted using waste heat from the fusion furnace. The hot glass bodies are charged to a refractory hearth heated to a temperature substantially above the temperature at which the glass product becomes fluid. The discrete bodies absorb heat, form a liquid phase and lose their morphology. The hearth is structured so that the liquid phase flows through it in a thin layer entraining any unreacted/unmelted material. As the molten material flows it is further heated and the reaction is completed. Molten glass product can be drawn from the hearth in a surprisingly short time after charging the heated discrete bodies to the hearth.
