Abstract: A method and a device for carrying out electronic transactions. A sender produces, under his own full control, a transaction message in a smart card (1) and provides the message with his digital signature in the card for subsequent output and transmission.
Abstract: The present invention relates a mammalian polypeptide designated Inhibitory PAS Domain Protein (IPAS) which polypeptide is useful for the inhibition of angiogenesis and/or tumor progression. The invention also relates to screening methods for compounds potentially useful as medicaments for the treatment of medical conditions related to angiogenesis or tumor progression.

Abstract: Device in connection with the lithography of structures of nanometer size, which device comprises a first main part (1) with a first principally plane surface (2a) and a second main part (3) with a second principally plane surface (9a), said first surface and second surface being opposite to one another and being arranged in principle parallel in relation to one another, with an adjustable interval between them, and said first and second surface being arranged to form a support for a substrate (5) and a template (10) respectively, or vice-versa. According to the invention, said second main part (3) also comprises a cavity (6) for a medium, and means for adjusting a pressure of said medium, a wall of said cavity consisting of a flexible membrane (9), of which one side, which side faces away from the cavity (6), forms said second surface (9a). The invention also relates to a method that utilizes the device.
Abstract: A sensor system for combining first and second sensor signals, and generating a physical parameter values dependent on said sensor signals used in autocalibrating sensors improving the performance and quality of existing sensor signals and virtual sensors realizing new sensors by combining and integrating in adaptive filter models sensor signals representing same or different types of physical parameters.

Abstract: A quadrifilar helix antenna (1) comprising a first and a second set of helical antenna elements (2a–5a, 2b–5b) symmetrically arranged around a longitudinal axis extending through the axial center of the antenna (1). The antenna (1) is excited from feeding points (2c–5c) in a local ground plane at the bottom (6) of the antenna. The helical antenna elements (2a–5a) of the first set are interconnected in respective top ends of the elements at the top (7) of the antenna. The bottom ends of the first set are in galvanic contact with the respective feeding points (2c–5c). The antenna is characterized in that the top ends of helical antenna elements (2b–5b) of the second set are arranged in an open circuit and remain unconnected. The bottom ends of the helical antenna elements (2b–5b) of the second set each includes a connection (2d–5d) to the local ground plane.
