  • Patent number: 5925101
    Abstract: A telecommunications system (10) is provided that provides for telephone functions to be accessed through client computer system (14). A server computer system (16) provides telephony services, database services and access to E-mail, voice mail, video conferencing and facsimile systems. A graphical user interface 116 is presented to a user to allow the user to perform a large number of functions and to access databases of information associated with calling and called parties.

  • Patent number: 5870464
    Abstract: An intelligent information router system comprising a telephony controller coupled to a private branch exchange through a link interface. The telephony controller may communicate with a handle manager and a script interpreter engine. The telephony controller may receive information from the link interface regarding telephone calls being placed to the private branch exchange. The telephony controller may initiate actions with the script interpreter engine that access information stored in a database through a database controller. In response to action of the script interpreter engine, the telephony controller may instruct the private branch exchange to route the call to an appropriate location within a company depending on the information received by the private branch exchange through automatic transmission of data or interaction with the calling party.

  • Patent number: 5426181
    Abstract: Pleiotropic pro-inflammatory cytokines, such as TNF and IL-1, induce expression of a polypeptide molecule, termed TSG-14, in connective tissue cells. The TSG-14 polypeptide and functional derivatives thereof, DNA coding therefor, expression vehicles, such as a plasmids, and host cells transformed or transfected with the DNA molecule, and methods for producing the polypeptide and the DNA are provided. Antibodies specific for the TSG-14 polypeptide are disclosed, as is a method for detecting the presence of TSG-14 polypeptide in a biological sample, using the antibody or another molecule capable of binding to TSG-14 such as hyaluronic acid.

  • Patent number: 5029171
    Abstract: A test pattern data generator 16 may be made to create and generate all of the unique test vectors associated with it. These test vectors may have an arbitrarily selected programmable length 26(a-d) and may be generated in an arbitrarily selected programmable quantity 28(a-d). Furthermore, a unique test vector may be generated in a number of clock periods approximately equal to the number of shift registers (156, 158) contained in a scan or application interface unit 20. All these features are accomplished by initially placing a seed initialization value in the test pattern generator 16 and having the test pattern data generator cycle through a number of states, the second state of the test pattern generation being inputted to a seed register 12. The contents of the seed register 12 are used as the seed initialization value for the second test vector to be generated by the generator 16. This process is continued until all of the unique test vectors have been created.

  • Patent number: 5023875
    Abstract: A fault detection system 50 includes first and second serial data shift register stages 74, 94 which are connected to a logic circuit under test 106, and a third serial data shift register stage 84 which is logically connected between the first and second serial data sift register stages 74, 94. The fault detection system 50 permits all paths of the logic circuit under test 106 to be sensitized and allows for the detection of all propagation delay type faults at substantially the operational speed of the logic circuit under test 106.

  • Patent number: 4742293
    Abstract: A method and apparatus are disclosed for testing for stuck- open faults in integrated circuits (10) having a plurality of combinational logic devices (18, 20). The apparatus includes a chain of shift register stages (22), with each stage including at least two latches (L1 and L3). The bits of an initialization test are shifted down the shift register and loaded into one of the latches (L3), while the bits of a detection test pattern are subsequently shifted down the chain and stored in the other latch (L1). A multiplexer (50) is provided for selecting one of the outputs from the two latches (L1, L3) so that the initialization test pattern and then the detection test pattern can be quickly applied to the combinational logic so as to minimize hazards which could invalidate the test results.
