Abstract: An integrated microelectromechanical structure is provided with: a driving mass, anchored to a substrate via elastic anchorage elements and moved in a plane with a driving movement; and a first sensing mass, suspended inside, and coupled to, the driving mass via elastic supporting elements so as to be fixed with respect to the driving mass in the driving movement and to perform a detection movement of rotation out of the plane in response to a first angular velocity; the elastic anchorage elements and the elastic supporting elements cause the detection movement to be decoupled from the driving movement. The elastic supporting elements are coupled to the first sensing mass at an end portion thereof, and the axis of rotation of the detection movement extends, within the first sensing mass, only through the end portion.

Abstract: An electronic system, an integrated circuit and a method for display are disclosed. The electronic system contains a first device, a memory and a video/audio compression/decompression device such as a decoder/encoder. The electronic system is configured to allow the first device and the video/audio compression/decompression device to share the memory. The electronic system may be included in a computer in which case the memory is a main memory. Memory access is accomplished by one or more memory interfaces, direct coupling of the memory to a bus, or direct coupling of the first device and decoder/encoder to a bus. An arbiter selectively provides access for the first device and/or the decoder/encoder to the memory based on priority. The arbiter may be monolithically integrated into a memory interface. The decoder may be a video decoder configured to comply with the MPEG-2 standard. The memory may store predicted images obtained from a preceding image.

Abstract: The present inventors discovered that although suppressing expression of the RecQ1 gene, a RecQ helicase family gene, shows suppressive effects on cell proliferation in cancer cells, such effects are not observed in human TIG3 cells (a normal diploid fibroblast cell line), which are normal cells. Hence, the present inventors discovered that siRNAs against RecQ1 gene have cancer cell-specific cell proliferation-suppressing effects that are mediated by suppression of the expression of said gene.

Abstract: A lift apparatus for lifting a structure includes a base, a bell crank pivotably coupled to the base, a coupling member for engaging a portion of the structure, pivotably coupled to the bell crank device via at least one lift member, and a longeron assembly having a pivoting apex and configured to pivot about the base. The apparatus also includes a biasing device having a first end pivotably coupled to the bell crank device for applying a force thereto, the bell crank device converting the first force to a second force and applying the second force to the coupling member via the lift member for lifting the structure. A movement of the structure is compensated by rotation of portions of the longeron assembly which repositions the apex, the bell crank, and lift arm to maintain the structure in the lifted position.

Abstract: Provided is a radio communication device which can prevent interference between SRS and PUCCH when the PUCCH transmission bandwidth fluctuates and suppress degradation of CQI estimation accuracy by the band where no SRS is transmitted.

Abstract: A network protection service is presented. The network protection service is configured to establish an arrangement with a subscribing host for providing assistance to the subscribing host upon detection of a triggering condition. A set of rules corresponding to the subscribing host for filtering network traffic directed to the subscribing host is determined. The network protection service monitors for a triggering condition for providing protective assistance for the subscribing host, and upon detection of a triggering condition, provides protective assistance to the subscribing host. The protective assistance includes causing network traffic directed to the subscribing host to be rerouted to the network protection service. The protective assistance further includes filtering the network traffic rerouted to the network protection service according to the set of rules corresponding to the subscribing host. At least some of the filtered network traffic is forwarded to the subscribing host.

Abstract: A waterjet system selectively produces fluid jets for water jet cutting or abrasive jets for abrasive-waterjet-cutting. The abrasive materials in the abrasive jet are determined based on the properties of the workpiece. The waterjet system includes an abrasive delivery system that is capable of delivering either a single abrasive or a plurality of abrasives as an abrasive blend, to a cutting head assembly. The cutting head assembly entrains the abrasive into a fluid jet to form an abrasive jet.

Abstract: Techniques are described for providing enhanced security for electronic communications, such as by including in a message sent between two services a digital signature that is generated by using secret information known to the services, so that the recipient receives assurance regarding the sender's identity if the recipient can replicate the received digital signature using the secret information known to the recipient. In some situations, the enhanced security is used in communications to and/or from an access manager system that provides single sign-on functionality and other functionality to other services for use with those services' users, such as to prevent malicious phishers from inappropriately gaining access to user information. Various services may use the enhanced security techniques when interacting with the access manager system at various times, such as to initiate sign-on for a user and/or to take subsequent action on behalf of a signed-on user.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method of processing an interrupt comprising a peripheral unit sending an interrupt, the interrupt being intended for a virtual unit executed by a processing unit, transmitting the interrupt to an interrupt control unit coupled to a processing unit, and the interrupt control unit storing the interrupt in an interrupt register. According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the interrupt is transmitted to the interrupt control unit in association with an identifier of the virtual unit receiving the interrupt, the interrupt register in which the interrupt belonging to a set of registers is stored comprising one interrupt register per virtual unit likely to be executed by the processing unit, the interrupt being transmitted to the processing unit if the virtual unit receiving the interrupt is being executed by the processing unit.

Abstract: An electronic device includes a design panel 12 made of a resin and a light guide lens 16 that is attached to the design panel 12 so as to guide light from a light source to the outside. An insert hole 20 that is a through hole whose shape is commensurate with the light guide lens 16 is formed in the design panel 12. The light guide lens 16 is inserted into the insert hole 20 by elastically deforming a rim of the insert hole 20 when the light guide lens 16 is pushed into the insert hole 20, to thus be attached to the design panel 12. Auxiliary grooves 22 that promote elastic deformation are formed in a neighborhood of the rim of the insert hole 20.

Abstract: A post sleeve installation device is used to install post sleeves at selected positions and orientations to support the fence posts of a fence. Data, such as relative spacing, orientation, and elevation of the post sleeves is collected for off-site manufacture of fence panels. A consumer views a rendering of the fence and selects a fence design on a web site or at a retail location. A manufacturer obtains the collected data and the consumer-selected design, and fabricates the fence panels accordingly. The panels are then transported to the fence location and installed on the fence posts. Additionally, a repository is provided, to which the data is transmitted for retention, and from which the data can be retrieved for manufacture of replacement fence panels.

Abstract: Techniques are described for providing managed virtual computer networks whose configured logical network topology may have one or more virtual networking devices, such as by a network-accessible configurable network service, with corresponding networking functionality provided for communications between multiple computing nodes of a virtual computer network by emulating functionality that would be provided by the networking devices if they were physically present.

Abstract: Techniques are described for providing client computing nodes with enhanced access to remote network-accessible services, such as by providing local capabilities specific to the remote services. In at least some situations, access to remote services by a client computing node may be enhanced by automatically locally performing some activities of the remote services, such as to improve the efficiency of communications that are sent between the client computing node and the remote service and/or to improve the efficiency by the remote service of processing communications from the client computing node. As one example, a node manager system local to a client computing node may perform authentication of communications sent by the client computing node to a remote service and/or may perform other activities specific to the remote service, so that the remote service does not need to perform the authentication and/or other performed activities for the communications.

Abstract: Environmental feedback and/or biofeedback is associated with one or more players' emotions in real time. The emotional feedback is provided to a game device being used by the player, such an electronic gaming machine (EGM). The game device uses the biofeedback and/or environmental feedback to appropriately adjust the game play to maximize the game's entertainment value to the player(s). The player(s) can be identified, and the game device matches the emotional response with certain game elements being presented at that time and associates this matching to the identified player. The matches can be used to make an adjustment to the game device, to the environments, and/or to take some other action. The game device can also store the matches, combined with any collected environmental and/or biometric stimuli, on a game server or player tracking database via the network.
