Abstract: A database system provides templates that can be applied to create new data objects. The database system may instantiate a data object having fields that are dynamically calculated based on data in other data objects. In some instances, the database system may dynamically calculate start or end dates for a project based on another date in another project. Data objects and templates can be linked in various dependencies, such as a parent template that can be linked to multiple children templates in a linear order, where the database system can update a value at the parent template and automatically have the update flow through the sequence of children templates due to the linked relationship.

Abstract: A cable set-top box system with integrated cable tuners and MoCA may implemented on a single integrated circuit, supporting communication over a shared coaxial cable line. The system may include a memory interface shared by DOCSIS and video/audio subsystems. The system may further include an embedded processor in the MoCA subsystem, enabling autonomous operation of the MoCA subsystem and secure flash memory that is not directly accessible by the DOCSIS subsystem.

Abstract: Aspects of a method and system for blocking data in scan registers from being shifted out of a device may comprise preventing data intrusion in an integrated circuit by generating a device reset signal prior to entering scan mode. The method may further comprise detecting an attempt to enter said scan mode. The device reset signal may also be an internal reset signal. A subsequent device reset signal may be generated after entering scan mode. The subsequent device reset signal may be an internal pulse signal. The method may further comprise clearing stored data in an integrated circuit after generating a subsequent device reset signal.

Abstract: A video data processing device, such as a set-top box for satellite, DSL, or cable video and data services, has a USB 2.0 interface to support connections to local devices and networks. The interface is supported by drivers that provide data connectivity with the internal system bus of the data processing device, to support wired and/or wireless home networking with computers and other set-top boxes, data storage and retrieval on hard drives and other storage media, and other data transfer operations to support digital cameras, game ports, and printers.

Abstract: The invention relates to improved E. coli bacteria with enhanced viability at low temperatures, methods for producing improved bacterial strains capable of enhanced viability at low temperatures, and the isolation and use of genetic material capable of enhancing the viability of bacteria at low temperatures. In addition to the enhanced viability at low temperatures, the bacteria may exhibit enhanced transformation efficiencies after storage at low temperatures. As such, the invention may be used for the insertion of exogenous DNA sequences into the bacteria of the invention.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a method for the identification and isolation of specific genetic sequences from cDNA libraries or samples of genomic DNA derived from the cells, tissues or organs of an organism, particularly a mammal, and most particularly a human (including a human embryo or fetus). In particular, the invention is related to a method whereby a tissue-specific cDNA or a genetic marker, not found in cDNA libraries or genomic DNA samples derived from other tissues from the same or a different organism, may be identified and isolated using an Amplification Fragment Length Polymorphism (AFLP)-based technique. This method has applications in the identification and isolation of cDNA sequences and genomic genetic markers which may be used in a variety of medical, forensic, industrial and plant breeding procedures.
