20080304462 | SESSION INITIATION PROTOCOL/INTERNET PROTOCOL MULTIMEDIA SUBSYSTEM BASED ARCHITECTURE FOR SUPPORTING 3G1x VOICE/DATA - A core network architecture for supporting an internet protocol based network is disclosed. The system includes a base station which is configured to convert a signal from a first network to an internet protocol network signal and send the converted signal through the internet protocol base network. The network also includes a gateway which is configured to receive the converted signal and deploy the converted signal through the internet protocol base network. In this sense, the internet protocol base network manages the call mobility and delivery of the signal. The base station in this disclosure may be a femto base station and the first network may be a code division multi-access (CDMA) network. | 12-11-2008 |
20080316976 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR SIGNALING INTERWORKING CDMA 3G1x MOBILES AND EVDO MOBILES WITH AN IMS CORE NETWORK - A basestation 3G1x network architecture which is used to convert 3G1x control and signaling to IMS/SIP in basestation is disclosed. The system includes a user agent that bi-directionally translates between SIP messaging and CDMA messaging. The system also includes a 1x basestation emulator which may act as an interface for the 3G1x handset. The basestation emulator is also configured to terminate CDMA mobile protocol and interconnect messages and operations with the user agent. The methods include mapping between the CDMA mobile message and the SIP message through the basestation emulator and the SIP user agent. The method may facilitate basestation origination and termination as well as feature services. These feature services may include three way calling, call waiting and call waiting with caller identification. | 12-25-2008 |

20100112723 | MICROFLUIDIC APPARATUS AND METHODS FOR PERFORMING BLOOD TYPING AND CROSSMATCHING - Microfluidic cartridges for agglutination reactions are provided. The cartridges include a microfluidic reaction channel with at least two intake channels, one for an antigen-containing fluid and the other for an antibody-containing fluid, conjoined to a reaction channel modified by incorporation of a downstream flow control channel. At low Reynolds Number, the two input streams layer one on top of the other in the reaction channel and form a flowing, unmixed horizontally-stratified laminar fluid diffusion (HLFD) interface for an extended duration of reaction. Surprisingly, the design, surface properties, and flow regime of microfluidic circuits of the present invention potentiate detection of antibody mediated agglutination at the stratified interface. Antigen:antibody reactions involving agglutination potentiated by these devices are useful in blood typing, in crossmatching for blood transfusion, and in immunodiagnostic agglutination assays, for example. | 05-06-2010 |

20110072244 | Credit-Based Streaming Multiprocessor Warp Scheduling - One embodiment of the present invention sets forth a technique for ensuring cache access instructions are scheduled for execution in a multi-threaded system to improve cache locality and system performance. A credit-based technique may be used to control instruction by instruction scheduling for each warp in a group so that the group of warps is processed uniformly. A credit is computed for each warp and the credit contributes to a weight for each warp. The weight is used to select instructions for the warps that are issued for execution. | 03-24-2011 |

20090036136 | Apparatus and Method for Hierarchical Routing with a Look-Ahead Mechanism - A system and a method for hierarchical routing with a look-ahead mechanism is disclosed. The method includes originating a call having an origination point in a first form through a first region. The method continues with routing the call to the originating MSC and then to a first internet protocol tandem associated with the first region. The method continues with forwarding the call to a second internet protocol tandem associated with a second region. The second region is generally the destination region. The method continues with determining whether or not the call qualifies as a call that may be terminated in a second form and if the call does qualify to be terminated in the second form, rerouting the call back to the original mobile switching center and connecting the call to the termination point in the second form, i.e., a circuit based form. | 02-05-2009 |

20110214372 | INSULATED SIDING APPARATUS - An insulated siding member and a method of fabricating an insulating siding member is described. The siding member may include a siding panel, an insulation member and a backing layer. The siding panel may have a cavity that may serve as a molding receptacle to allow the insulating material to be molded directly into the cavity of the remainder of the siding panel. The cavity may also allow for the insulation layer to be applied directly to the panel, whereby there may be no need for an additional adhesive layer to attach the insulation member with the siding panel. Thus, the backing layer may be attached directly to the insulation member. The siding member may have a configuration that may also allow the siding member to be easily engaged with or be interlocked with another siding member to provide for better and more uniform insulation. | 09-08-2011 |
