  • Publication number: 20110224962
    Abstract: A system simulates stimulation of scar tissue identified as hyper-enhanced areas in a medical image with variable luminance thresholds and categorizes partially-viable myocardium as distinct from non-viable scar tissue. A cardiac function analysis system includes a repository of imaging data representing a 3D volume comprising a patient heart. A model processor provides a model of the patient heart using the imaging data said model being for use in allocating electrical properties to model parameters determining electrical conductivity associated with image data classified as, (a) scar tissue, (b) impaired tissue and (c) normal heart tissue. The electrical properties allocated to scar tissue are different to electrical properties allocated to normal tissue. A stimulation processor simulates electrical stimulation of the patient heart using the model to identify risk of heart impairment.

  • Publication number: 20080286737
    Abstract: The present invention is an intelligent, adaptive system that takes in information and reacts to the specific information given to it, using a set of predefined heuristics. Therefore, each individual's information (which can and is unique) will feed the engine, and then provide a unique experience to that individual. One embodiment of the present invention discussed herein focuses on Mathematics however the invention is not limited thereby as the same logic can be applied to other academic subjects.

  • Patent number: 7150549
    Abstract: An illumination system has a housing that rotates with a vehicle wheel, and the housing has a cavity with lighting and controls within the cavity. Light from the cavity is directed onto a vehicle wheel, and the light flashes in relationship to the rotation speed of the wheel which makes the wheel appear to be stationary or slowly rotate in a backward or forward direction.

  • Publication number: 20060107145
    Abstract: A processor including a first distributed shift generator associated with a first time domain, wherein the first distributed shift generator is coupled to a first group of scan chains, the first distributed shift generator to send a shift-enable-flop signal to be received by the first group of scan chains. The processor including a second distributed shift generator associated with a second time domain, wherein the second distributed shift generator is coupled to a second group of scan chains, the second distributed shift generator to send a shift-enable-flop signal to be received by the second group of scan chains. The processor including a scan test controller coupled to the first and second distributed shift generators, the scan test controller to provide clocking signals for the first time domain and the second time domain for performing an at-speed test of circuits coupled to the first group of scan chains.

  • Publication number: 20060069973
    Abstract: A combinatorial at-speed scan testing. A processor including a plurality of distributed slave counters. Each distributed slave counter coupled to a group of scan chains, each distributed slave counter to generate shift-enable-flop signals to be received by the group of scan chains coupled to each distributed slave counter, the shift-enable-flop signals based at least in part on an external shift-enable signal received by the processor. A scan test controller coupled to the plurality of distributed slave counters to provide control signals to the plurality of distributed slave counters to perform an at-speed test of the processor.

  • Publication number: 20040130905
    Abstract: An illumination system periodically directs a short burst of bright light onto rotating indicia or vehicle design features which makes the indicia or design features appear to be stationary or animated. An exact location of the indicia on the sidewall of the vehicle tire may be determined by an emitter and sensor during each revolution of the tire, and a short burst of bright light is then directed onto the indicia which makes the indicia appear to be stationary or animated. The system may simply comprise a flasher connected to a battery and a control that causes the flasher to periodically flash onto a vehicle wheel and/or tire at a fixed frequency independent of the rotational speed of the wheel. In another embodiment, an illumination system has a housing that rotates with a vehicle wheel, and the housing has a cavity with lighting and controls within the cavity.
