Abstract: Compositions and methods for the treatment of viral infections include conjugates containing inhibitors of viral neuraminidase (e.g., zanamivir, peramivir, or analogs thereof) linked to an Fc monomer, an Fc domain, and Fc-binding peptide, an albumin protein, or albumin-binding peptide. In particular, conjugates can be used in the treatment of viral infections (e.g., influenza viral infections).

Abstract: An alarm system with a plurality of projection means located on the outside of the structure or structures the alarm system is monitoring that are integrated into the alarm system so that the plurality of projection means may display an image when the alarm system has not been tripped and displays an appropriate image associated with the type of incident that tripped the alarm when the alarm has been tripped.

Abstract: A networked imaging system, includes first and second communications networks, and first and second storage devices respectively interconnected to the first and second networks. A first image processor, interconnected to the first network, generates first image data representing a first image and writes the first image data to the first storage device. A second image processor, interconnected to the second network, generates second image data representing a second image. A first print driver, interconnected to the first and the second networks, writes the second image data to the second storage device and generates first drive instructions corresponding to the written first image data. A second print driver, interconnected to the second network, generates second drive instructions corresponding to the written second image data. First and second image makers respectively generate a representation of the first and second images according to the first and second drive instructions.

Abstract: An imaging system includes image processors, storage devices, one or more print drivers, and one or more image makers. The image processors generate image data representing an image. The storage devices store the image data. The print driver(s) generate instructions corresponding to the image data. The image maker(s) generate a representation of the image in accordance with the instructions. A first communications network interconnects the image processors and the print driver(s). A second communications network interconnects the image processors, the print driver(s), and the storage devices.

Abstract: A system for exposing offset printing media with image data, which have been scaled to compensate for web growth, comprises an imaging engine for exposing the offset printing media in response to scaled image data and a print drive system that receives plate-level image data and generates the scaled image data to the imaging engine in response to web growth information. This system is distinguished from other systems that scale the source images, typically prior to halftoning. Instead, the scaling is performed to the plate-level image data, before it is feed to the imaging engine.

Abstract: An encoder for compressing image information includes a memory and processor. The memory stores a sequence of characters representing an image. The processor determines if the stored sequence of characters corresponds to a banded image or a page image. The processor operates in a first mode if the stored sequence of characters is determined to correspond to the banded image. The processor operates in a second mode, different than the first mode, if the stored sequence of characters is determined to correspond to the page image.

Abstract: A scanner, utilizing a local buffer, prevents the occurrence of stop/start artifacts in the image data by selecting a scan rate that will not overflow the buffer. This is accomplished by having the host computer communicate to the scanner to instruct a modification to a default scanning speed. The modification is based upon an expected rate at which the host computer can consume the image data, prior to the beginning of the document scan. Consequently, the scanner does not generate image data faster than they can be accepted by the host computer, thus avoiding the need to stop the relative movement between the image sensor and the document.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for providing data buffering through a plurality of storage buffers between at least one raster image processor (RIP) and at least one output device in an imaging system. The imaging data being produced by a RIP and stored on a first storage buffer is redirected to a second storage buffer if an output device requires imaging data previously stored on the first storage buffer. After the required imaging data has been output to the output device, the imaging data segmented across the first and second storage buffers is reconstituted.
