20110208920 | FACILITATING SERVER RESPONSE OPTIMIZATION - A configuration of cached information stored within a cache is determined. One or more character omission rules are determined by: identifying the one or more optimizable characters based on the configuration, where the one or more optimizable characters are characters in the stored cached information that do not have an effect on an interpretation of the stored cached information by a requester computer; and determining, based on the configuration, one or more conditions under which omission of the one or more optimizable characters from the stored cached information produces a valid result in view of the configuration. One or more character omission rules are applied to the stored cached information by removing from the stored cached information the one or more optimizable characters that meet the one or more conditions. | 08-25-2011 |

20110130797 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR DETECTING EPILEPTOGENESIS - Neuronal excitation and inhibition of the brain is tracked in the hippocampual CA1 network during a latent period, wherein biomarkers are observed which include a sustained increase in the firing rate of the excitatory postsynaptic field activity, paired with a subsequent decrease in the firing rate of the inhibitory postsynaptic field activity within the CA1 region of the hippocampus; the mean amplitude profiles of both fEPSP and fIPSP field potential activity during the latent period have characteristic shapes; both excitatory and inhibitory CA1 field activity firing rates are observed to follow a circadian rhythm that drifts during epileptogenesis; the circadian rhythms described are in-phase in controls and anti-phase during epileptogenesis; and the fEPSP rate drifts from a circadian rhythm to a greater extent than the fIPSP rate. An additional biomarker is a change in a circadian rhythm of core body temperature. Upon detection of one or more of the biomarkers in a patient with a predisposition to seizure, therapeutic measures including thermal, chemical, or electrical modulation are applied to prevent the occurrence of the seizure, in an open or closed loop process. | 06-02-2011 |

20090045958 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR LOCATING PERSONAL ITEMS AND THE LIKE - The invention is a system for locating and preventing the loss of personal items within a geographic zone. The system components are a personal portable homing center device a having a radio frequency receiver and a transducer that is actuated by a change in a signal strength; and several zone devices, for instance an active RFID tag attached to the personal item. The homing center device has an algorithm to measure the strength of the signal generated by the tag. The transducer is an audible and/or a silent alarm. The homing center device has three operating modes: Off, Homing-in, and Homing-out. In the Homing-in mode the alarm is actuated when a zone device's signal is detected. In the Homing-out operating mode the alarm is actuated when a zone device's signal falls to a threshold strength, indicating that the item is no longer close to the homing center device. | 02-19-2009 |
20120160240 | DILATED NASAL SLEEP MASK - The invention is an apparatus that blocks out light and improves breathing. The apparatus includes a sleep mask with an integral nasal dilation system. The nasal dilation system includes a nasal element mounted with on the nose section of the mask, where the nasal element in one version has a channel through which a band can move substantially orthogonal to the wearer's nose. Sidewalls center the band, and inward folded cuffs retain the band. The band encircles the wearer's head between the mask straps. It is threaded through the slideway and can slide therein equalizing side-to-side forces. The band is elastic and when stretched it generates an opposing force. Pressure is exerted on the nose by using the band in a stretched state. The extended band creates pressure on the slideway, which causes the nose section to press against the nostrils causing them to distend, which in turn dilates the nasal passages, and breathing is improved. | 06-28-2012 |
20120186497 | LIMITED EATING AREA HARDWARE BOWL SYSTEM - The invention is a system for organizing and preventing bowls and the like from being turned over or moved about. The system includes a mat having an upper surface with one or more planar fastening areas, where each planar fastening area is fitted with one or more mat hook or loop fastening membranes or a combination thereof, and a vessel having a floor with an lower surface appropriately fitted on with one or more vessel hook or loop fastening membranes or a combination thereof. In the system a reversible bond between the mat membrane and the vessel membrane is attained when a hook membrane is pressed against a loop membrane, causing hook and loop fibrous elements to become entangled. The reversible bond can be broken by peeling the loop membrane from the hook membrane, causing hook and loop fibrous elements to become disentangled. | 07-26-2012 |
