A communication system is provided that uses loosely-coupled client-server architectures to improve the efficiency of communications. The communication system includes client and facilitator applications. The client application is a component of processor-based mobile communication devices. The facilitator application is hosted on one or more servers or other processor-based devices, and communicates with the client application via one or more couplings. The facilitator application can also be distributed among one or more portable processor-based devices including the communication devices hosting the client application. The communication system improves efficiency of voice communications by allowing communication device users to dynamically manage how and when mobile calls take place, intelligently screen calls based on caller identity, urgency, and subject matter, determine which contacts in a directory are available to talk and which ones choose not to be disturbed, and increase accessibility of enterprise and personal contact information from mobile phones.

The present invention provides reagents for use in an automated environment for cell conditioning of biological samples wherein the cells or tissues are predisposed for access by reagent molecules for histochemical and cytochemical staining procedures. The reagents include components optimized to facilitate molecular access to cells and cell constituents within the biological sample. The present invention also provides reagents for use in an automated environment for removing or etching embedding media by exposing a biological sample to be stained in histochemical or cytochemical procedures without the dependence on organic solvents. The reagents include components optimized to facilitate removal or etching of the embedding media from the biological sample.

A meso-porous silicon aluminum material with thin diaspore-like phase structure is disclosed. The preparing process includes the following steps: aluminum materials and alkali solution are neutralized to glue, and then silicon materials are added, finally the product is given by aging, ion exchange, drying and baking. The meso-porous silicon aluminum materials possess good hydrothermal stability and can be used as catalyst carrier with strong macromolecule cracking capacity, higher raw oil conversion efficiency and lower heavy oil yield.

PCT No. PCT / JP95 / 01427 Sec. 371 Date Mar. 18, 1996 Sec. 102(e) Date Mar. 18, 1996 PCT Filed Jul. 18, 1995 PCT Pub. No. WO96 / 02890 PCT Pub. Date Feb. 1, 1996The object of the present invention is to propose an account bankbook, a money transfer card, a receipt file, and a checkbook utilizing an optical card, an IC card, or a hybrid optical / IC card. On the surface of a resin card base board 1 are formed an IC chip 11, an optical recording sheet 13, a magnetic stripe 14, and an embossment 12. In a semiconductor memory within the IC chip 11 are written validation keys, search keys, payee information, the upper limit amount of a check, and a program for processing transaction data. Access restrictions corresponding to various applications are imposed upon these data. The history of various cash transactions is recorded in the optical recording sheet 13. These records are of write-once type and rewriting or deletion thereof is impossible.

The invention relates to a device (1) for building a layer body (2) from a plurality of superimposed layers of free-flowing material, in particular particulate material, on a building platform (3) in a build space (4), the layers being solidified and joined to each other in locally predetermined areas, so that at least one layer body (2) is formed by the solidified and joined areas of the layers, including an elongated discharge container (5), which is movable back and forth over the build space (11 [sic; 4]) in at least one discharge direction and which has at least one discharge opening (6) from which the free-flowing material is dischargeable in individual superimposed layers during the movement of the discharge container (5), it being possible to supply the discharge container (5) with free-flowing material from a filling device with at least one storage or filling container (10) having at least one outflow opening (11) by vertically covering the at least one outflow opening (11) of the storage or filling container (10) with an elongated feed opening (12) of the discharge container (5).The invention provides that the storage or filling container (10) has a shorter extension than the discharge container (5), viewed in the longitudinal direction of the discharge container (5), and the storage or filling container (10) is controllable relative to the discharge container (5), viewed in the longitudinal direction of the discharge container (5), in such a way that the outflow opening (11) of the storage or filling container (10) is guided along the feed opening (12) at least once from one end thereof to the other end thereof.

The present invention provides a system and method for dynamically populating a list of most used execution points in a graphical user interface of an operating system based upon the utilization behavior of a user. One embodiment provides for depicting a list of execution points to most used programs by determining a list of eligible programs, tracking the usage of the eligible programs in a usage list, taking into account chronological order of the activation of the programs and determining which programs in the usage list have the most usage. These programs then have execution points placed on a displayed most used list in the graphical user interface.
