Abstract: This document presents a system and method for managing the process of testing and/or certification and re-certification of devices in multiple countries. The certification system collects all information on the device from a requestor of service and manages the creation of quotes, manages the communication with suppliers in countries of interest to the requestor, provides a central repository for the collection, review, approval, and dissemination of all documentation for the device to complete a technical and operational certification. The certification system manages the project from initial document upload, through certification service, to completion and delivery of the certification approvals from the approval body in each country selected by the requestor.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to methods of treating individuals suffering from progressive forms of multiple sclerosis.

Abstract: A programmable equalizer and related method are provided. The equalizer includes a pair of current-setting field effect transistors (FETs) coupled in series with a pair of input FETs and a pair of load resistors, respectively, between a first voltage rail (Vdd) and a second voltage rail (ground). A programmable equalization circuit is coupled between the sources of the input FETs, comprising a plurality of selectable resistive paths and a variable capacitor, which could also be configured as a plurality of selectable capacitive paths. Each of the selectable resistive paths (as well as each of the selectable capacitive paths) include a selection FET for selectively coupling the corresponding resistive (or capacitive) path between the sources of the input FETs. In the case where one of the input FETs is biased with a reference gate voltage, the source of each selection FET is coupled to the source of such input FET.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and circuits for providing reception and capture of data using a mismatched impedance and an equalizer to save power are disclosed. A data receiver in communication with a transmission line, the data receiver having a termination impedance that is mismatched with respect to a characteristic impedance of the transmission line; and an equalizer in communication with the data receiver, the equalizer configured to receive a channel-transmitted data signal from the data receiver and to re-shape the signal to reduce distortion RC attenuation; wherein the circuit is configured to selectably operate in a first mode wherein the termination impedance is matched with respect to the characteristic impedance of the transmission line and a second mode wherein the termination impedance is mismatched with respect to the characteristic impedance of the transmission line and the signal is not recoverable but- for the equalizer.

Abstract: Various implementations of the present invention are provided as a network computer system configured to allow for creating, rating, tracking, monitoring, and disseminating user-created and user-customizable messages. The network computer system provides a user interface that allows a user to create templates for message creation, messages from the templates, ratings for messages (message “bias”), databases for storing templates and messages (message queue), and ratings, as well as storage for information related to the monitoring and tracking of messages as they are delivered to the intended recipients. The ability to create multiple messages, with disparate content, intended for disparate audiences, with batch sorting and sending, is also provided. Messages can be provided via commercial messaging services such as email, snail mail, telephone, SMS, facsimile, social media networking sites (e.g. Facebook® messages, Twitter® “tweets”, etc.).
