A method for linking related data, such as metadata, from at least two data sources. The method includes formatting items of data of the data sources according to attributes. The method also executes a scoring algorithm for one or more of the attributes to generate a score for one or more sets of the formatted items of data, each of the sets includes an item of data from one data source and an item of data from another data source. Finally the method identifies related items of data of the separate data sources based upon the generated scores to facilitate linking related data of the two data sources. The method may also provide a link between data items of the data sources.

Static mixers and fluid systems incorporating one or more of the static mixers. The static mixers may include one or more channels that provide a tortuous path through a body, wherein fluid flowing through each channel defines a downstream direction through the tortuous path created within the channel. The tortuous path of the channel is preferably formed by a set of flow obstacles protruding into the channel and a set of flow restrictions positioned along the channel between the inlet and the outlet. Each flow restriction has a downstream length over which the open cross-sectional area of the channel decreases and then increases when moving in the downstream direction.

The present invention relates to an acoustic lysis system including a disposable cartridge that can be reversibly coupled to a platform having a small, high-frequency piezoelectric transducer array.

Also described herein are methods of making and using the system of the invention.

A remote display unit is positioned to display remotely generated data without requiring a doctor to turn his or her head away from the object of the doctor's attention.

The present invention provides a system and method for transmit beamforming in a Frequency Division Duplex communication system. A first step (600) includes correcting for differences between transceiver receive and transmit responses within a base station. A next step (604) obtaining a beamforming weight of a phase antenna array on an uplink. A next step (606) transforming the uplink beamforming weight a downlink beamforming weight by applying a phase correction that is a function of wavelength at the uplink and downlink frequencies and distance between antenna elements.

A conditional access system comprising a host configured to receive an incoming data stream and to supply this incoming data stream to a conditional access module, the conditional access module being configured to process the incoming data stream and to provide a corresponding output stream to the host, characterized in that the host and the conditionalaccess module are configured to engage in an authentication protocol with each other upon detection of a code embedded in the output stream.

A method of manufacturing a nitride semiconductor device includes the steps of: forming a division guide groove by applying a laser beam having a wavelength and energy density causing multiphoton absorption to a surface of a substrate having a group III nitride semiconductor layer grown on a major surface thereof; removing deposits from the surface of the substrate by applying a laser beam having the wavelength to the surface of the substrate at energy density causing substantially no multiphoton absorption on the substrate; and dividing the substrate along the division guide groove.

In a data transmit/receive method for plurality of devices connected by a 1394 bus, a receiving device obtains a device-specific number of a transmitting device when starting to receive data. When a bus reset occurs, the receiving device again obtains the device-specific number from the transmitting device, and checks whether the device-specific numbers before and after the bus reset match. If the device-specific numbers differ, the receiving device obtains the device-specific number from all devices connected to the bus. If a device with the same device-specific numbers as prior to the bus reset is present among the obtained device-specific numbers, the channel number of the bus used for the transmitting of data is determined, and the receiving device starts receiving with that channel number. Then device authentication with the transmitting device is carried out, and key information for solving the encryption is obtained.

An aspect of the present invention relates to a magnetic recording medium comprising a magnetic layer comprising a ferromagnetic powder and a binder on one surface of a nonmagnetic support and a backcoat layer on the other surface of the nonmagnetic support, wherein a number of indentations equal to or greater than 20 nm in depth present on the magnetic layer surface is equal to or less than 100/10,000 μm², a sol component ratio in the magnetic layer is equal to or less than 5.0 percent, and the support has an amount of heat absorption based on enthalpy relaxation ranging from 0.5 J/g to 2.0 J/g, and a glass transition temperature Tg ranging from 110° C. to 140° C. The present invention further relates to a method of reproducing magnetic signals and magnetic signal reproduction system in which the magnetic recording medium is employed.

A system for determining the concentration of an analyte in a liquid sample comprising a detection unit for detecting light intensities which are radiated from subareas of a detection area of a test element as well as an evaluation unit which determines a frequency distribution for the detected light intensities wherein the frequency distribution has at least one first maximum caused by unwetted subareas or at least one reference area and a second maximum caused by wetted subareas and selects at least one light intensity on the basis of the frequency distribution and determines the concentration of the analyte from the at least one selected light intensity.

An adaptive antenna reception device is disclosed in which a directional beam having excellent reception characteristics can be quickly and easily obtained from the start by selecting an initial beam direction of signal processors that are to begin determination of weight that uses time averaging based on the reception quality and the arrival direction in which the reliability is high for an incoming wave that is received in each signal processor in which sufficient averaging time has been secured. An arrival direction detection unit detects the arrival direction of an incoming wave that is received in each signal processor from weight that is determined by each signal processor in which at least a prescribed time interval has been secured for the averaging time for finding a time average. A SIR measurement unit finds the reception quality of a signal of an incoming wave that is received by weighting and synthesizing in each signal processor in which at least a prescribed time interval has been secured for the averaging time. An information collection/selection processor, based on each arrival direction and each reception quality in each signal processor in which at least a prescribed time interval has been secured for the averaging time, selects the initial beam direction in signal processors that are to begin determination of weight using time averaging.
