Abstract: A system for uniquely identifying a medication unit such as a pill, a tablet, or a capsule includes a unique identifier located directly on the medication unit that distinguishes the medication unit from any medication unit. The system further includes a database that is hosted on a server device, the database being searchable to identify the medication unit and including the unique identifier and other information associated with the medication unit. The system further includes a scanner that scans the unique identifier to provide the unique identifier o a user device that communicates with the server device via a network to identify the medication unit.

Abstract: Optically sensitized binders which are energetic polyphosphazenes tailored at the molecular level to achieve enhanced absorption of electromagnetic radiation by having attached thereto a chromophore to absorb light and therefore ignite the binder in use.

Abstract: Substituted poly(phosphazene) compounds comprising a combination of units having one or more of the structures (i) to (iii) wherein: the combination comprises R1 and R2; each R1, is independently an optionally substituted alkyl- or alkyl ether-based side chain containing an isocyanate-reactive moiety, an epoxide-reactive moiety, an amine-reactive moiety, a supramolecular noncovalent bonding moiety, or combinations thereof; and each R2 is independently an optionally substituted alkyl- or alkyl ether-based side chain containing nitro, nitramine, nitrate ester, azide, an ammonium compound moiety with energetic counter-ion, or combinations thereof. Methods of making the compounds are also described.

Abstract: A method for retrieving a desired postal address from a plurality of postal addresses. The invention can feature receiving input data having input terms for finding the desired postal address from a first database of postal addresses where each postal address is formed of a plurality of postal address elements, searching a dictionary for entries in the dictionary corresponding to the input terms, determining that each entry in the dictionary that corresponds to the input terms corresponds to postal address elements of one or more postal addresses in the first database, and outputting data representing the desired postal address. The desired postal address is found in the first database if an address in that database has postal address elements that correspond with each of the entries of the dictionary that corresponds to one or more of the input terms.

Abstract: The invention describes the synthesis of novel mono-amine and di-amine derivatives of hexa-nitro-hexaazaisohex-awurtzitane (CL-20). The synthesis is effected by the novel use of fluoroacylating compounds to protect the secondary amine groups of acylated precursors to CL-20 against nitrolysis. In so doing the mono-amine and di-amine derivatives of CL-20 are rendered and which in turn may be subsequently utilised as intermediates to generate further novel derivatives with differing physical and chemical properties to the parent compound. Formula (I), wherein:— X?H, and Y?H or NO2.

Abstract: Surface acoustic wave (SAW) identification tag discrimination methods including, in one embodiment (1) detecting a signal emanating from an electronic device operating within a SAW tag frequency band; (2) identifying a null period in a transmission pattern in the signal; and (3) effecting communication of information during the null period.

Abstract: A method of accommodating code collisions from multiple SAW identification tag coded response pulses. In one embodiment, the method includes: (1) separating probable candidates by time-domain; (2) classifying the probable candidates by code-division separation; (3) employing known coded identification signals to adjust the probable candidates; and (4) correlating the multiple SAW identification tag coded response pulses to identify the probable candidates for further processing.
