Abstract: A method and use are described for disabling certain wireless communication device functionalities based on input from the device's user-facing camera. More particularly, image data of the user is collected, image analysis is used to extract certain metrics about the user, and if those metrics are in violation of one or more thresholds one or more device functionalities are disabled. The functionality may be disabled for a period of time or until the user's image metrics fall below one or more thresholds. The disabled device functionalities may also be extended to connected peripheral devices. Finally, records of threshold violations resulting in disabled device functionality may be stored on the device or a database and made available to third parties.

Abstract: An integrated-circuit radio communication device (1) comprises a processor (7), memory (13), and radio communication logic (17). The memory (13) has a firmware module (23) stored at a firmware memory address, the firmware module (23) comprising instructions for controlling the radio communication logic (17) according to a predetermined radio protocol. The processor (7) is configured to receive supervisor call instructions, each having an associated supervisor call number, and to respond to a supervisor call instruction by (i) invoking a supervisor call handler in the firmware module (23), and (ii) making the supervisor call number available to the call handler. A software application (27) is loaded into the memory (13) of the device (1), and stored at a predetermined application memory address.

Abstract: A system includes a speed service architecture (SSA) capable of supporting high throughput connectivity between a server and client. The SSA may allow for a bandwidth measurement for a connection between the server and client. In some cases, the SSA may offload the processing of the connectivity measurement resulting in little or no load on processing devices external to the SSA, for example, the host processors of the client and/or server. The SSA may use a stream generator to generate a test stream for transmission over the connection. The test stream may be received and analyzed by a stream analyzer. The stream analyzer may then report the measurement results to the client, server, or other device.

Abstract: The present invention provides a lock and handle assembly for a door comprising a latch moveable between an extended position in which the door is prevented from opening, and a release position allowing opening of the door; a lock having a locked state in which the latch is retained in the extended position, and an unlocked state allowing movement of the latch to the release position; a receiver to receive control instructions via a wireless communication medium, to change the lock between the locked state and the unlocked state; and a handle operable by a user to move the latch between the extended position and the release position, when the lock is in the unlocked state, thereby allowing the user to open the door. A power configuration and wireless communication system for such a lock (and other home automation devices) is also provided.

Abstract: A pharmaceutical dosage form is provided that has a distinguishing characteristic and an identifier associated with the dosage form. The distinguishing characteristic is assigned from a limited set of distinguishing characteristics and is determined upon oral administration of the dosage form, or is detected in breath, bodily fluids, or tissues after ingestion, or injection or other non-oral administration. The identifier is associated with the dosage form and with the distinguishing characteristic. The identifier is associated with only one distinguishing characteristic but the distinguishing characteristic may be associated with multiple identifiers. The pharmaceutical dosage form may be used in a method to monitor compliance with a dosage regimen.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of treating cancer in a human and to pharmaceutical combinations useful in such treatment. In particular, the method relates to a cancer treatment method that includes administering 2-methyl-1-{[2-methyl-3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]methyl}-6-(4-morpholinyl)-1H-benzimidazole-4-carboxylic acid, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and N-{3-[3-cyclopropyl-5-(2-fluoro-4-iodo-phenylamino)6,8-dimethy;-2,4,7-trioxo-3,4,6,7-tetrahydro-2H-pyrido[4,3-d]pyrimidin-1-yl]phenyl}acetamide, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or solvate thereof, to a human in need thereof.

Abstract: A polymerization to form a branched polyolefin, in which polymerization an ethylene copolymerization catalyst and an ethylene oligomerization catalyst form a series of ethylene oligomers that are ?-olefins are both present, gives an improved polyethylene if the oligomerization catalyst has a relatively high Schulz-Flory constant.

Abstract: A code verification tool verifies that code generated from a model represents all of the functionality of the model and does not contain any unintended functionality. The code verification tool may receive for examination a model or an intermediate representation (IR) of the model and the generated code or an intermediate representation of the generated code. The code verification tool may create further intermediate representations of the model and/or the generated code in order to compare the functionality presented in both.

Abstract: A downhole control system for actuating hydraulically controlled devices positioned in a well. The system includes a first set of N hydraulically controlled devices positioned in the well and a second set of at least one hydraulically controlled device positioned in the well. A common control line is ported to a first side of each of the hydraulically controlled devices in the first set. N control lines are each ported to a second side of one of the hydraulically controlled devices in the first set. A first control line of the N control lines is ported to a first side of a first hydraulically controlled device of the second set and a second control line of the N control lines is ported to a second side of the first hydraulically controlled device of the second set, such that N+1 control lines are operable to actuate N+1 hydraulically controlled devices.

Abstract: A radio communication system comprises a radio transmitter (2), and a radio receiver (12) configured to receive radio transmissions from the transmitter. The transmitter (2) uses a transmitter clock signal to transmit a succession of connection-event data packets (22a?, 22b?, 22c?) according to a predetermined schedule. The receiver (12) enters a sleep state between receiving successive connection-event data packets from the transmitter (2), in which it does not receive and process radio transmissions from the transmitter. It uses a receiver clock signal to determine when a predetermined number of receiver clock cycles has elapsed after receiving one of the connection-event data packets (22b?), and then enters a ready state. The predetermined number of receiver clock cycles is the number of receiver clock cycles (34a) that elapsed between the respective receipts of two of the connection-event data packets (22a?, 22b?) received by the receiver (12) minus a correction factor (38).

Abstract: An ethylene oligomerization catalyst that oligmerizes ethylene to a series of ?-olefins and that has a Schulz-Flory constant of about 0.75 to 0.995 produces a stream of ?-olefins. This stream is then added to a vessel containing ethylene and a copolymerization catalyst that copolymerizes ethylene and ?-olefins. The resulting branched polyethylene often has good processing properties. The good processing is presumably due to the presence of “long chain branching”. Such polymers are useful for films and other packaging materials, and for molding resins for molding parts such as industrial, automotive or electrical parts.

Abstract: Systems and methods which facilitate money transfer transactions to a receiving account are provided. Embodiments may provide for interaction between a money transfer service and one or more receiving account entities. Such interaction may be configured to cooperatively utilize transaction details in order to correctly route transferred funds to a receiving account. Embodiments may utilize this cooperation to prevent sensitive information from being widely distributed by parties which participate in a money transfer transaction.
