Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, and methods include a PMUT mechanically coupled to, and electrically isolated from, a receive sensor via a common flexible membrane. The receive sensor may be an optical sensor or a receive only PMUT providing a feedback signal based on a received waveform, VRO(t), to modify the drive voltage Vd(t) of the PMUT. The feedback signal may be used to modify the drive voltage Vd(t) of the PMUT to shorten the ring-down period and may be based on the received waveform, VRO(t), and a desired receive waveform, VROD(t), which may be selected to optimize one or more of Q, bandwidth, resonant frequency, and spectral content of the drive voltage Vd(t). The drive voltage Vd(t) may be modified to a minimize a difference between VRO(t), and a desired receive waveform, VROD(t), or a closed loop weighted (?, ?) sum of the energy of VRO (t) and the blind zone duration.

Abstract: A networked computer system and method for drilling back among a plurality of web applications. The networked computer system includes a server serving a plurality of applications and a client-side computer system connected to the server over a network. The client-side computer system includes a browser comprising a plurality of interfaces configured to access a plurality of applications over the network. The browser is configured to display contextual data in a first one of the plurality of interfaces accessing a first one of the plurality of applications and to provide a portion of the contextual data to a second one of the plurality of interfaces accessing a second one of the plurality of applications. The browser provides seamless navigation among the plurality of applications. The method includes steps of interfacing with a plurality of web applications and seamlessly navigating from a first web application to a second web application.

Abstract: A networked computer system and method for seamless navigation among a plurality of web applications. The networked computer system includes a server serving a plurality of applications and a client-side computer system connected to the server over a network. The client-side computer system includes a browser configured to access the plurality of applications. The browser includes a plurality of frames, each executing an interface configured to access a respective one of the plurality of applications over the network. The browser provides seamless navigation among the plurality of applications. The method includes steps of receiving a webpage comprising a plurality of interfaces to a plurality of applications, rendering the webpage within a browser, and seamlessly navigating from a first one of the interfaces to a second one of the interfaces in response to a user selection. Seamless navigation may be effected by hiding the first interface while unhiding the second interface.

Abstract: The present invention relates to methods and compositions for identifying biomarkers that indicate a biological state, in particular transcription factor biomarkers and genes that can be regulated by such transcription factor biomarkers. The invention also relates to identifying polymorphisms in such transcription factors and regulated genes indicative of the biological state. The biomarkers and polymorphisms identified find use in diagnostic and treatment approaches, e.g., some embodiments the invention provide methods and kits for detecting bronchogenic carcinoma and risks thereof.

In particular, the present invention provides methods and compositions for assaying one or more non-nucleic acid analytes with one or more other nucleic acid and/or non-nucleic acid analytes that serve as controls.

Abstract: A flexibly adaptable, i e., configurable and/or extensible, asset management system is disclosed for processing and querying assets, representing data. The system comprises three layers: a Client Application layer, for manipulating and browsing assets, an Asset Manager Server layer, for providing programming interface services specific for assets types, such as storing, querying, and retrieving assets representing data to and from a Data Store, representing the third layer. The Asset Manager Server layer further provides communication services to support the Client Application layer and file transfer between the Client Application layer and the Asset Manager Server layer. The Asset Manager Server includes several configurable and/or extensible modules, including a Client Adapter module, a Schema Adapter module and a Resources module.
