Abstract: The present invention relates to a highly efficient method for producing oil-in-water emulsions, preferably for parenteral administration, which method is characterized in that large parts of the water phase are added only after the energy-intensive homogenization of the pre-emulsion, i.e. an emulsion having low water content is first produced and said emulsion is subsequently “diluted”.

Abstract: In a method for predicting future driving conditions for a vehicle (1), sensor data (2) are gathered while the vehicle (1) is traveling on a route. A position of the vehicle (1) is also determined. The gathered data are associated with the determined vehicle position. A map (9) is created depending on the associated data. When the route is traveled again, the map is updated in real time depending on associated data from the repeated traveling. Finally, a prediction of future driving conditions is obtained based on the determined vehicle position and the map (9).

Abstract: This invention relates to peptide-exchange proteins comprising the luminal domain of TAP-binding protein-related (TAPBPR), which functions as a MHC class I peptide-exchange catalyst when presented to mammalian cells either as a soluble extracellular protein or as a membrane bound cell surface protein. This may be useful in modulating immune responses, including for example loading immunogenic peptide onto tumours or other disease cells to induce their recognition by T cells. Peptide-exchange proteins and methods for their use are provided.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for establishing an end-to-end communication between two networks, wherein: a message is received from one first network, this message having a first header and an application-data part; data of said first header is coded into a second header within the application data part, with the aid of a first coding scheme, so as to produce a modified application data part; said modified application data part is coded with the aid of a second coding scheme so as to produce a coded message; and this coded message is transmitted to a second network.

Abstract: According to one aspect, the invention provides a method of providing conductive structures between two foils in a multi-foil system. The system comprises at least two foils, from which at least one foil comprises a terminal. The method comprises the steps of (in any order) providing at least one solid state adhesive layer, patterning adhesive layer with through-holes; filling the through-holes with conductive material, so as to form the conductive structure, connected to the terminal; and bonding the at least two foils. One advantage of the invention is that it may be used in a manufacturing process for multi-foil systems.

Abstract: Method for wire-free transmission of data packets between network nodes in a control network, wherein the data packets each have a preamble for synchronization, which preamble consists of a predetermined number of preamble symbols; wherein, in a first operating mode (FIG. 5a), each preamble-subsymbol (Cj, Cj+1) of a preamble symbol in the preamble is coded by the phase angle of a transmitted single signal pulse; wherein, in a second operating mode (FIG. 5b), in order to increase the signal recognition performance, for the preamble which is transmitted in the data packet, a signal pulse sequence (SIF) for coding the preamble-subsymbol (Cj, Cj+1) is transmitted instead of a single signal pulse, in which signal pulse sequence (SIF) the single signal pulse is transmitted repeatedly.
