Abstract: A controlled release microcapsule pharmaceutical formulation for burst-free, sustained, programmable release of a non-steroidal, antiinflammatory drug over a duration from 24 hours to 2 months, comprising: a non-steroidal, antiinflammatory drug and a blend of biocompatible, biodegradable poly (lactide/glycolide).

Abstract: A method and apparatus providing parallel memory circuitry, such as for example synchronous dynamic random access memory (SDRAM) support in a computer system designed to support serial memory circuitry, such as for example Rambus dynamic random access memory (RDRAM). In one embodiment, a circuit board including a memory translator having serial memory interface logic and parallel memory interface logic is plugged into a serial memory connector on a motherboard designed to utilize serial memory circuitry. The circuit board includes parallel memory circuitry coupled to the parallel memory interface logic of the memory translator. The memory controller on the motherboard accesses the parallel memory circuitry on the circuit board through the memory translator.

Abstract: A circuit for preventing a non-conforming PCI bus master from performing cycles where the address driven is not provided soon enough for receiving circuitry to latch the address. The circuit modifies the bus grant signal to force the non-conforming PCI bus master to temporarily release the bus instead of performing a second data transfer cycle within the same bus access so that a conforming cycle is subsequently performed when the bus is reacquired by the non-conforming PCI bus master. The circuit forces the non-conforming PCI bus master off the bus even though the non-conforming PCI bus requests the bus and an arbiter has granted the bus to the non-conforming PCI bus master.
