Abstract: Spatial Division Multiple Access (SDMA) offers multiplicative spectral efficiency gains in wireless networks. An adaptive SDMA beamforming technique is capable of increasing the traffic throughput of a sector, as compared to a conventional tri-cellular arrangement, by between 4 and 7 times, depending on the environment. This system uses an averaged covariance matrix of the uplink signals received at the antenna array to deduce the downlink beamforming solution, and is equally applicable to Frequency Division Duplex (FDD) and Time Division Duplex (TDD) systems. A scheduling algorithm enhances the SDMA system performance by advantageously selecting the users to be co-scheduled.

Abstract: A method, system, and computer usable program product for source identification for multipart content validation are provided in the illustrative embodiments. An identification information of a source server is obtained by parsing an update request, the update request being configured to request from the source server an update of a part of the multipart content. The identification information is recorded. A change in a part of the multipart content is observed. The change in the part results in an updated multipart content. A debugging directive is constructed, the debugging directive including the identification information of the source server. The debugging directive is inserted relative to the part that has changed thereby associating the source server with the part of the multipart content. The updated multipart content including the debugging directive is transmitted to a validation server executing in a second data processing system.

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention are directed to a data transfer network having a server side and a client side, wherein content is sent from the server side to the client side in successive output streams to dynamically create a document on the client side, and the content for different output streams is provided, respectively from different ones of a plurality of originating sources that are located on the server side. One embodiment, directed to a method, includes the steps of intercepting a given output stream, and determining whether or not a debug directive can be inserted into the intercepted output stream, wherein the determination is made in conformance with prespecified lexeme rules associated with the intercepted output stream. Responsive to a determination that a debug directive can be inserted into the intercepted stream, a debug directive is created that contains information identifying the originating source on the server side which provided the content for the intercepted output stream.

Abstract: Space division multiple access scheduling for a transmitter having an antenna array with multiple beams includes determining, and storing at the transmitter, angles of arrival of signals and identifiers from user equipments, such as cellular telephones. The user equipment identifiers are sorted at the transmitter in order of angle of arrival to form an ordered list. The ordered list is subdivided into ordered sub-lists of user equipment identifiers in order of angle of arrival. The transmitter sequentially transmits simultaneously to a group of each respective ordinal member of each sub-list of user equipments, which are well-spaced.

This is achieved by constructing a system that mimics the natural physical dimensions and properties of a mammal's digestive tract and then accelerates the process through the selective breeding of aggressive bacteria to promote the digestion. Examples of suitable waste include but are by no means limited to animal waste, industrial waste, spent barley, kitchen waste and the like.

Abstract: A pacemaker optimising apparatus comprising: a component (4) which noninvasively or invasively monitors a haemodynamic measurement continuously in an individual and a processor (15) for receiving the haemodynamic measure and generating a pacemaker programming signal in response to this. There is also provided a communication device (17) for sending the pacemaker programming signal to the control system of the pacemaker (2). There is also a method for an efficient process by which this apparatus can automatically use the haemodynamic measurements to determine the ideal settings for a particular pacemaker in a particular individual, and to updates the pacemaker's settings accordingly.

Abstract: A router containing a firewall capable of supporting a plurality of different security levels. The router of the present invention creates a plurality of Virtual Local Area Networks (VLANs) using a network switch. The VLAN Rules Table (VRT) allows a network administrator to designate a trust level for each VLAN. The trust level may be different for every VLAN and the administrator may designate different rules for each VLAN. The Security Program (SP) analyzes each packet passing through the firewall and determines if the packet is permitted under the rules for the VLAN trust level. An alternative embodiment in which the switch in the router is divided into a plurality of sub-switches is also disclosed. In the alternative embodiment, the firewall need only compare the packet to rules which were not applied in the lower trust levels, eliminating the redundant rules from the comparison process.
