Abstract: A water heating solar module designed for being connected to a boiler of a water heating system, the module comprises a vessel having a water inlet and a water outlet, a first heating element installed in the vessel, and a power supply for feeding the first heating element with electric power produced from solar energy. The module is arranged as follows: the vessel is positioned near the boiler, so that the vessel's bottom portion is placed not higher than the boiler's bottom portion; the water inlet is provided at the vessel's bottom portion and is adapted for receiving water from the boiler; the water outlet is provided at the vessel's top portion and is adapted for delivering water from the vessel to the boiler; the power supply is electrically connectable to a photoelectric device for receiving electric energy there-from, and to the first heating element, for heating water in the vessel.

Abstract: In a flexible catheterization probe a resilient member couples the tip to the distal portion of the probe and is configured to deform in response to pressure exerted on the tip when engaging tissue. A position sensor in the distal portion of the probe senses the position of the tip relative to the distal portion of the probe. The relative position changes in response to deformation of the resilient member. The position sensor generates a signal indicative of the position of the tip responsively to a magnetic field produced by a magnetic field generator located in the position sensor. The position sensor has a first coil of conductive wire having first windings, and three second coils of conductive wire having respective second windings. The second coils are symmetrically distributed about the longitudinal axis of the first coil.

The method includes the steps of inserting a probe having an ablation electrode into a body of a living subject and urging the ablation electrode into a contacting relationship with a target tissue. A measurement of at least one electroanatomic parameter is made between the ablation electrode and the target tissue, and the measurement is haptically communicated to an operator. Responsively to the communicated measurement, ablating the target tissue using the ablation electrode.

Abstract: A technique is disclosed for delivering packets that carry data from a plurality Internet Protocol (IP) servers toward a plurality of mobile devices (MDs). The disclosed technique postpones or drops data packets that are directed toward a certain MD. The downloaded process can be resumed when the application that is running at the certain MD needs the content that is carried by the postponed data packets. Consequently the delaying process is unnoticeable to the user that uses the application that running over the MD. Thus, the QoE of the user of that MD is not affected.

Abstract: A technique comprising a Just-In-Time (JIT) marking element and a JIT agent is disclosed. The JIT-marking element and the JIT agent are configured to deliver one or more packets in the direction toward a first MD just-in-time (JIT) prior to the time in which an application, at the first MD, needs to handle the content that is carried over the certain one or more packets. The JIT-marking element is configured to add a JIT indication that indicates when to deliver the marked one or more packets toward the first MD and transmit the marked one or more packets toward the JIT agent. The JIT agent is configured to process the JIT indication, remove it and accordingly deliver the one or more packets toward the first MD.

Abstract: A haptic feedback device receives a signal reflecting pressure exerted by a medical tool against an anatomical surface. A fastener secures the feedback device to, for example, a wrist of an operator. A haptic exertion component exerts haptic stimulation to the operator based on the received signal such that when the received signal reflects a pressure being exerted by the medical tool against the anatomical surface of a patient is in a defined range for operation of the medical tool, the exertion component exerts haptic stimulation at a predetermined level that indicates pressure of the medical tool is being exerted in the defined range. Otherwise, the exertion component does not exert a level of haptic stimulation that is equal to or more than the predetermined level or the exertion component exerts a level of haptic stimulation to the operator that is more than the predetermined level.

Abstract: A technique to deliver Personally Identifiable Information (PIT) of a first subscriber from the plurality of subscribers that reside in a private network toward a first server from the plurality of IP servers that reside in a public network wherein the first server is involved in at least one transaction with the first subscriber is disclosed. In addition a Network-Address Translator (NAT) is used in order to allocate to the first subscriber a public IP address. Further, the communication between the first subscriber and the first IP server is encrypted. An example embodiment of the disclosed technique may impersonate the first subscriber and send the PII over an impersonated packet.

Abstract: A technique, to keep alive one or more radio connections over a cellular network in order to carry downloaded data packets sent in a burst mode, is disclosed. In burst mode the flow of the data packets has a pattern with repeating two types of periods, an active period and a silent period. During an active period a plurality of data packets are sent and during a silent period almost no data packets are sent. The technique is implemented by an intermediate network element (NE) that is configured to send, during the silent period, a keep-alive signal (KAS) toward a relevant CD. The KAS can be a TCP acknowledgement, for example.
