20090303957 | METHOD FOR DYNAMICALLY ALLOCATING RESOURCES IN A NETWORK OF STATION CLUSTERS - A distributed method for dynamically assigning time-frequency resources in a network comprising several stations is disclosed. The stations are organized in groups (or interfaces) of several stations with each group comprising an allocation table Tsi. Each group exchanges this allocation table by means of a signaling protocol with groups that are defined as being in conflict with it by a constraints graph. The method uses an arbitration function to settle the conflicts and the assignments of allocations between the groups in conflict according to the constraints graph. In performing the method, each interface Ji transmits the allocation table TJi associated with it to the interfaces K indicated as being in conflict in the constraints graph. An interface Ji looks, for each allocation AJi that it has entered in its table TJi, whether the allocation AJi is used in the table received from an interface K that is in conflict. The interface Ji uses the arbitration function to modify the allocation AJi in the table TJi. | 12-10-2009 |

20110270243 | Subxiphoid Connective Lesion Ablation System and Method - Instrument and systems for applying ablative energy to epicardial tissue via a subxiphoid access surgical approach. The instrument has a head assembly sized and shaped for a subxiphoid surgical approach to a patient's heart and defines a contact face. The head assembly includes a paddle body, a first ablation electrode, and a second ablation electrode. The ablation electrodes are coupled to the paddle body in a spaced apart, spatially-fixed fashion. The ablation electrodes are exteriorly exposed at the contact face. A tubular member extends from the head assembly and maintains wiring connected to the ablation electrodes. The instrument is manipulable to locate the contact face on epicardial tissue of a patient's heart via a subxiphoid surgical approach, such as between the left and right pulmonary vein junctions of the posterior left atrium. | 11-03-2011 |

20090205543 | COOLING PLATE FOR AN IRON- OR STEELMAKING FURNACE - A cooling plate for an iron and steelmaking furnace includes a copper cooling plate body having at least one cooling duct for a cooling medium extending essentially parallel with the back of the cooling plate body. The cooling plate body further includes a preformed, externally accessible recess into which the cooling duct opens. A connection piece is utilized as a cooling medium connection on the back of the cooling plate body, while a formed piece fitted within the externally accessible recess forms a deflection surface for the cooling medium flowing from the connection piece into the cooling duct, or from the cooling duct into the connection piece. | 08-20-2009 |
