Abstract: Accessing information associated with a virtual memory address by receiving a virtual memory address, translating the virtual memory address into a nominal physical memory address, receiving the nominal physical memory address at a memory migrator, and using the memory migrator to determine an old physical memory address corresponding to the nominal physical memory address and access the information at the old physical memory address or a new physical memory address. The accessing operation may be performed as part of migrating the information from an old physical memory location corresponding the old physical memory address to a new physical memory location corresponding to the new physical memory address.

Abstract: A scan multiplier system for optical scanning includes an inertial scanning unit for receiving an incident beam and scanning the incident beam to generate a scanned beam defining a scanned line rate. A scan multiplier unit receives the scanned beam from the inertial scanning unit, the scan multiplier unit including one or more optical elements for redirecting the scanned beam back toward the inertial scanning unit, the inertial scanning unit receiving the reflected beam from the optical element and generating a rescanned beam, the rescanned beam defining a rescanned line rate different from the scanned line rate. The scan multiplier system can be used with a laser scanning microscope system, such as a two-photon microscope system, a confocal microscope system, or other such microscope system.

Abstract: Disclosed are adapters for switches and outlets that allow switches and outlets to be moved laterally within the electrical box to accommodate wall features that are located adjacent to the electrical box.

Abstract: Disclosed is a chalk line marking apparatus having an ambidextrous trigger. The trigger has an angled cord cavity channel that directs a marking cord in a downward direction so that the marking cord is flush with a surface to be marked.

Abstract: Disclosed is a chalk line marking tool that has a trigger attached to a spring loaded marker. The spring loaded marker has a cord gripper channel that holds a chalk covered cord. When the trigger is actuated, the spring loaded marker marks a surface with a chalk line mark.

Abstract: In one configuration, a system for enriching a liquid with gas-bubbles is disclosed. The system may include at least one reservoir configured to temporarily store the gas-bubble enriched liquid. Each of the at least one reservoir may include an associated inlet port and an associated outlet port fluidically coupled with each other via a liquid-flow line. The system includes one or more pumps configured to cause movement of the liquid along the liquid-flow line, a gas supply feeding a gas (in one configuration, oxygen from a gas concentrator), and a gas-bubble generator provided on the liquid-flow line. The gas-bubble generator may be fluidically coupled to the gas supply to receive gas from the gas supply. The gas-bubble generator may be configured to generate a plurality of individual gas-bubbles of the gas received from the gas supply and mix with the liquid stream flowing via the gas-bubble generator.

Abstract: A method for obtaining one or more images of a sample using a microscope includes dividing, using a reverberation cavity, a first one of a plurality of laser pulses into a plurality of sequential sub-pulses, each of the plurality of sequential sub-pulses having a power that is less than a previous one of the plurality of sequential sub-pulses, directing, using the one or more lenses of the microscope, the plurality of sequential sub-pulses onto a portion of the sample to generate a plurality of signals, each of the plurality of signals being associated with a different depth within the sample, and detecting the plurality of signals from the sample to generate one or more images of at least a portion of the sample.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a compound of formula I, 1-1 or 1-2 wherein R1 is hydrogen, lower alkyl, lower alkyl substituted by halogen, halogen, lower alkoxy, or lower alkoxy substituted by halogen; R1 may be different if n=2 or 3 n is 1, 2 or 3 Ar is a six membered heteroaryl group, selected from wherein R2 is hydrogen, lower alkyl, lower alkyl substituted by halogen, halogen or lower alkoxy; R3 is hydrogen or halogen; or to a pharmaceutically active acid addition salt thereof. The compounds may be used for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease, cerebral amyloid angiopathy, hereditary cerebral hemorrhage with amyloidosis, Dutch-type (HCHWA-D), multi-infarct dementia, dementia pugilistica or Down syndrome.

Abstract: An Oblique Backscatter Ultrasound imaging system includes a transceiver that has an US source and a plurality of US detectors configured in receive signals off axis from the US source. While the system is arranged in a reflective configuration, the device produces transmissive contrast signals to yield improved images. The transceiver can be mounted to a movable stage or robotic arm to enable it to scan the surface of a target. Alternatively, scanning can be performed by 1D or 2D phased-array transmission or detection.
