Abstract: Disclosed are methods for detecting a target molecule in a sample, including the sequential steps of: (a) incubating at the same time in a buffer solution in a reaction well (i) the sample suspected to contain one or more target molecules, (ii) solid phase-coupled capture molecules suitable for binding to the target molecules, wherein the capture molecules are coupled to beads (capture-beads), (iii) a defined amount of detection molecules suitable for binding to the target molecules and/or the capture molecules, wherein the detection molecules are coupled to beads (detection-beads), wherein the capture-beads are separable from the detection-beads, (b) separating in the reaction well the capture-beads from the buffer solution including unbound detection-beads, and (c) detecting the remaining unbound detection-beads in the buffer solution, which has been separated from the capture-beads, wherein the method does not include a washing step.

Abstract: A system, method, and computer program for organizing elements for compression, comprising nesting a hierarchical topological structure having a plurality of elements; arranging said plurality of elements in a pattern to facilitate data compression; representing said pattern as four arrays; and compressing said plurality of elements from said arrays, and appropriate means and computer-readable instructions.

Abstract: A system, method, and computer program for producing a visualization format from CAD data comprising producing a BREP model for visualization, wherein said BREP model has a topology component and a geometry component; removing a plurality of redundant control points from said geometry component; normalizing a plurality of knot vectors and a plurality of weight components from said geometry component; recognizing an analytic geometry from said geometry component; recognizing a plurality of equivalents from said geometry component; and converting said analytic geometry to said light model representation, and appropriate means and computer-readable instructions.

Abstract: A system, method, and computer program for tessellation. A method includes tessellating a curve having a plurality of polygons, connecting said plurality of polygons in a preferred direction, and decomposing polygons into a plurality of triangles. A mesh representation is created from the plurality of triangles.

Abstract: A system, method, and computer program for storing a polygonal topology, comprising representing a primitive with a plurality of vertices, internal half-edges and external half-edges; and storing said plurality of vertices in a vertex array and said plurality of external half-edges in a half-edge array, wherein said arrays are indexed and parallel to one another; whereby said primitive is re-created from said parallel array with said internal half-edges that are implicit from a primitive structure and appropriate means and computer-readable instructions.
