In this regard, the transfer of synchronization items from a first electronic device to a second electronic device may be based on characteristics of the synchronization items and characteristics of the available connectivity states of the first electronic device.

A method of multi-path trellis coded quantization (TCQ) usable in a speech coding system, and a quantizer using the method. Specifically the method includes calculating accumulated distortions corresponding to 2N survivor paths, wherein N indicates an integer greater than two, each of the 2N survivor paths is going towards one of nodes at an i th stage of a trellis, and i indicates an integer greater than zero, comparing the accumulated distortions respectively corresponding to the 2N survivor paths to select N paths among the 2N survivor paths, wherein the accumulated distortions corresponding to selected N paths are smaller than the accumulated distortions corresponding to unselected N paths establishing the selected N paths as survivor paths going toward an i+1 th stage, and selecting an optimal path among the 2N survivor paths corresponding to each node of a last stage.

A method of configuring a frame for fast wireless communication and an apparatus for fast wireless communication are provided. The apparatus for fast wireless communication includes: a frame configuration unit configuring a frame including transmission data; a demultiplexing unit demultiplexing the transmission data included in the frame into N number of parallel streams (N: positive number greater than 2); N number of coding and modulation units connected in parallel to perform error correction coding and orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) with respect to each of the N number of parallel streams; and a multiplexing unit multiplexing outputs of the N number of coding and modulation units into serial streams.

Devices and methods for monitoring a discharge in a plasma process are provided. An example method includes detecting at least a first signal path of at least one plasma supply signal within at least a first time range within at least one period of the plasma supply signal, detecting at least a second signal path of the at least one plasma supply signal within at least a second time range which is at the point corresponding to the first time range in at least one other period of the plasma supply signal, and generating an identification signal if the second signal path deviates by at least a distance from the first signal path. The distance has a minimum time difference and a minimum signal amplitude difference. The method enables to identify arcs in a very reliable and very rapid manner.

A seal member having a thermoplastic body for an electrochemical cell containing a nonaqueous organic solvent electrolyte. In particular, the seal member is preferably one or more of (a) a seal located between a cell container wall and a cell cover and (b) a seal of a vent assembly, more particularly a ball vent assembly. The seal member has a composite construction including one or more vapor transmission barrier layers disposed on a portion of the thermoplastic body.

An efficient means for transmitting digitized return path signals over a cable television return path is disclosed. In one embodiment of the invention, the cable television return path includes a node that receives an analog return signal from a subtree of the cable television system and generates a digital transport signal representative of the analog return path signal. The digital transport signal, however, is not a digitized form of the analog return signal. Rather, the digital transport signal is encoded such that fewer bits are used to represent the analog return signal without substantially impacting the accuracy and dynamic range of the signal. At the hub, the digital transport signal is decoded and converted to produce an analog signal that is a close approximation of the analog return signal.

A multi-hop wireless terminal having a user application section, a traffic control section and a wireless transmitting/receiving section, the traffic control section enqueuing a packet of a transmission flow from the user application section and a packet of a forward flow from the wireless transmitting/receiving section in queues different for each flow and performing traffic control, where the traffic control section includes a queue manager for sorting a packet of each input flow into a corresponding queue and enqueuing the packet, and a packet scheduler for dequeuing a packet from each queue and outputting the packet, and where the packet scheduler selects from the queues a queue from which a packet is to be dequeued and output, based on transmission information of each of the flows.

A network configuration management includes the steps of sending from the management terminal (1100) participation terminal information stored in the management terminal; receiving by the participation terminal (1200, 1300, 1400) other than the management terminal, participation terminal information sent from the management terminal (1100); judging by the participation terminal other than the management terminal, whether or not the participation terminal can communicate with another participation terminal device that is participating in a wireless network (1010); sending a communication availability judgment result which is obtained by the judging step, from the participation terminal other than the management terminal to the management terminal (1100); and determining by the management terminal (1100), a participation terminal that should be excluded from the wireless network (1010) in accordance with the communication availability judgment result, and deleting by the management terminal device, from the participation terminal information the participation terminal that should be excluded from the wireless network (1010), thereby updating the participation terminal information which is stored in the management terminal.

An efficient means of inducing an immune response against human immunodeficiency virus (“HIV”) utilizing specific prime-boost regimes is disclosed. The specific prime-boost regimes employ a heterologous prime-boost protocol wherein recombinant adenoviral and poxvirus vectors comprising exogenous genetic material encoding a common HIV antigen are administered in that order. Vaccines administered into living vertebrate tissue in accordance with the disclosed regimes, preferably a mammalian host such as a human or a non-human mammal of commercial or domestic veterinary importance, express the HIV-1 antigen (e.g., Gag), inducing a cellular immune response which specifically recognizes HIV-1. It is believed that the disclosed prime/boost regime will offer a prophylactic advantage to previously uninfected individuals and/or provide a therapeutic effect by reducing viral load levels within an infected individual, thus prolonging the asymptomatic phase of HIV-1 infection.

An efficient means of inducing an immune response against human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) utilizing specific prime-boost regimes is disclosed. The specific prime-boost regimes employ a heterologous prime-boost protocol employing recombinant adenoviral vectors of alternative and distinct serotypes comprising exogenous genetic material encoding a common HIV antigen. Vaccines administered into living vertebrate tissue in accordance with the disclosed regimes, preferably a mammalian host, such as a human or a non-human mammal of commercial or domestic veterinary importance, express the HIV-1 antigen (e.g., Gag), inducing a cellular immune response which specifically recognizes HIV-1.

The invention relates to anti-parasitic agents, and particularly, although not exclusively, to the use of Chryseobacterium nematophagum for the control of nematode parasites.

The invention provides a frozen confection product comprising a frozen confection and a flexible wrapper, wherein the inner material of the wrapper has a high water vapour transmission rate (WVTR) and a subsequent material has a low water vapour transmission rate (WVTR). The use of the frozen confection product reduces the amount of frost present on the surface of a frozen confection during storage.
