Assays based on liquid flow over arrays

InactiveUS20060275852A1Highly credible resultLow coefficient of variationBioreactor/fermenter combinationsBiological substance pretreatmentsAssayAnalyte
Cassette (50) performs assays, e.g. multiplexed protein biomarker assays. Wide, bubble-free, slow flows are produced from liquids stored on cassette (50), flowing over wide array (20) of ligand receptors on a capture surface. Flows of Reynolds Number less than about 1, preferably 1×10−1 to 5×10−3, are heated in region (34) preceding and including bubble removal system (128). Analyte is introduced through compressed septum (32). External actuations of displacement pumps (30, 37) and valves (137 A, B, and C) produce flows in response to flow-front optical sensors (150, 152). Elastic sheet provides pump and valve diaphragms and resilient expansion of mixing volume (131). Break-away cover portions are pistons. Heating is by conduction through cassette from external contact heater. Planar cassette body, when tilted from horizontal, enables upward flow from pumped storage (134, 135) to reaction (133) to waste (139), with buoyancy bubble removal before reaction. Reading of fluorescence is by external reader, employing calibration, control and reference features on capture surface. Extensive set of calibration features of differing intensities enables self-calibration.

Improved optical devices and methods transmit optical images along elongate optical paths with relatively limited cross-sectional dimensions using an improved objective, relay, and ocular systems. In a first aspect, at least one intermediate image formed within an optical component, rather than being formed in a gap between optical components. In a preferred embodiment, a first intermediate image is formed within glass of the most proximal objective lens, with the first intermediate image extending axially along a curved image location within the glass. The last intermediate image may similarly be disposed within a distal lens of the ocular system. By making use of a first and / or last intermediate image disposed in this manner within a lens, endoscopes can exhibit a significantly larger Numerical Aperture than known endoscopes having similar cross-sectional dimensions. In a second aspect, the ocular system allows independent adjustment of diopters, magnification, X-Y positioning, and rotation orientation of the captured image while introducing minimal aberrations.

Efficient one-to-many content distribution in a peer-to-peer computer network

A content distribution method and system for distributing content over a peer-to-peer network such that the full potential throughput of the network is achieved. The content distribution method divides the content to be distributed into many small blocks. Each of the content blocks then is assigned to a node, which can be a content-requesting node, a non-content-requesting node or a source node. Content is assigned based on a capacity of the node, where nodes having a larger capacity are assigned a greater number of content blocks and nodes having a smaller capacity are assigned a fewer content blocks. The capacity generally is defined as the upload bandwidth of the node. Redistribution queues are employed to control the throughput of the distribution. This bandwidth control strategy ensures that upload bandwidths of the peer and source nodes are fully utilized even with network anomalies such as packet losses and delivery jitters.

Dynamic and intelligent buffer management for SAN extension

In a network system for transporting GFP-encapsulated Fibre Channel / FICON data across a SONET / SDH transport network between two Fibre Channel / FICON ports, a transport interface for one Fibre Channel / FICON port intelligently allocates the amount of buffers for receiving Fibre Channel / FICON data from the other Fibre Channel / FICON port by determining the latency of travel across the SONET / SDH transport network. The first transport interface inserts a special latency instruction message into the Fibre Channel / FICON data before encapsulation in a GFP frame. After transport across the SONET / SDH network, the receiving second transport interface immediately sends the special latency instruction message back across the SONET / SDH transport network to the first transport interface which times the return of the special latency instruction message. From the time interval, the first transport interface can determine the latency of the SONET / SDH transport network and allocates the amount of buffers appropriately. This latency determination procedure is performed periodically so that the amount of allocated buffers can change as the latency of the SONET / SDH transport network changes.

Energy efficient medium access control protocol for IEEE 802.11 WLANs

IEEE 802.11 power management scheme for an ad hoc network is based on the Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Avoidance (CSMA / CA) access procedure to transmit / receive their data frames. CSMA / CA may waste the scarce energy and bandwidth due to frame collisions and lengthen the frame delay due to waiting backoff time. In addition, IEEE 802.11 power management scheme does not specify how to tune the ATIM window size in a beacon interval. However, the ATIM window size affects the power consumption and throughput of a network considerably. The fixed ATIM window size cannot always accommodate the various traffic conditions. To conquer these problems and to improve the performance of networks, we propose a energy efficient MAC protocol for IEEE 802.11 networks by scheduling transmission after the ATIM window and adjusting the ATIM window dynamically to adapt to the traffic status.

An energy efficient, high throughput process for aromatics recovery can be readily implemented by revamping existing sulfolane solvent extraction facilities, or constructing new ones, so as to incorporate unique process operations involving liquid-liquid extraction and extractive distillation. Current industrial sulfolane solvent based liquid-liquid extraction processes employ a liquid-liquid extraction column, an extractive stripping column, a solvent recovery column, a raffinate wash column, and a solvent regenerator. The improved process for aromatic hydrocarbon recovery from a mixture of aromatic and non-aromatic hydrocarbons requires transformation of the extractive stripping column into a modified extractive distillation column. The revamping incorporates the unique advantages of liquid-liquid extraction and extractive distillation into one process to significantly reduce energy consumption and increase process throughput. The revamp entails essentially only piping changes and minor equipment adjustments of the original liquid-liquid extraction facility, and is therefore, reversible.

Mapping technique for computing addresses in a memory of an intermediate network node

A mapping technique allows a forwarding engine of an intermediate node to efficiently compute a starting address within an internal packet memory (IPM) configured to hold a packet received at the node. The starting address is used by direct memory access logic to merge a trailer of the packet stored in the IPM with a modified packet header generated by the forwarding engine. However, the size of the IPM is preferably not a binary number that can be easily manipulated by the forwarding engine when computing the starting address of the packet within the IPM. Therefore, the technique automatically adjusts the starting address to map to a correct location if the address exceeds the size of the IPM, while obviating the need for the forwarding engine to consider a wrap-around condition when computing the starting address.
