20130024226 | ENTERPRISE PLANNING TOOL - This invention relates to an enterprise planning tool. Enterprise planning tools are used to manage the operations of an entity and are becoming increasingly popular as companies migrate from spreadsheet based planning. The present invention provides an enterprise planning tool that comprises a plurality of interconnected objects, each object comprising at least one attribute and each object having a time dimension. Each of the objects has a relationship with one or more other objects thereby connecting the objects together. The relationship consists of at least one common attribute and at least a partial time dimension common to both objects. The object relationships are arranged so that each of the objects in the enterprise planning tool is connected to each of the remaining objects in the enterprise planning tool either directly or indirectly through one or more connected objects.

20130271155 | IMPEDANCE MEASUREMENT DEVICE AND METHOD - A digital sine wave may be converted to an analog signal at a digital to analog converter (DAC). The converted analog signal may be supplied to a device and an analog return signal from the device may be passed through a relaxed anti-aliasing filter and converted to digital code words at an analog to digital converter (ADC). An impedance may be calculated from the results of a Fourier analysis of the digital code words. The ADC and DAC clock frequencies may be asynchronous, independently variable, and have a greatest common factor of 1. The clock frequencies of the ADC and/or DAC may be adjusted to change a location of images in the ADC spectrum. By using these different, adjustable clock frequencies for the ADC and the DAC, an analog signal may have increased aliasing without introducing signal errors at a frequency of interest. | 10-17-2013 |
20130300512 | CLOCK GENERATOR FOR CRYSTAL OR CERAMIC OSCILLATOR AND FILTER SYSTEM FOR SAME - A clock generator is disclosed for use with an oscillator device.

The signal conditioner may have an input for a signal from the oscillator device, and may include a high pass filter component and a low pass filter component. The high pass filter component may pass amplitude and frequency components of the input oscillator signal but reject a common mode component of the oscillator signal. Instead, the high pass filter component further may generate its own common mode component locally over which the high frequency components are superimposed. The low pass filter component may generate a second output signal that represents the locally-generated common mode component of the first output signal. The clock generator may have a comparator as an input stage which is coupled to first and second outputs of the filter structure. | 11-14-2013 |

20150061769 | CLOSED LOOP CONTROL SYSTEM, AND AN AMPLIFIER IN COMBINATION WITH SUCH A CLOSED LOOP CONTROL SYSTEM - A control apparatus is provided that can provide high dynamic resolution and is suitable for inclusion within an integrated circuit. The control apparatus receives a demand signal representing a desired value of a measurand, and a feedback signal representing a present value or a recently acquired value of the measurand. The processing circuit forms a further signal a further signal which is a function of the demand and feedback signals. The further signal is then subjected to at least an integrating function. The demand signal, feedback signal or the further signal is processed or acquired in a sampled manner. The use of such sampled, i.e. discontinuous, processing allows integration time constants to be synthesized which would otherwise require the use of unfeasibly large components within an integrated circuit, or the use of off-chop components. Both of these other options are expensive. | 03-05-2015 |

20140256924 | CARBOHYDRATE FUNCTIONALISED SURFACES - Carbohydrates are biomolecules that are involved in a range of biological processes and play key roles in, for instance, host immune response and cellular adhesion. Accordingly, functionalisation of medical devices such as stents, valves, catheters, prostheses and other devices for in vivoimplantation with carbohydrates is an area in which considerable interest is developing. Disclosed herein are surfaces having carbohydrates immobilised thereon. The carbohydrate has a linker moiety covalently bound thereto and the linker moiety has a carbon atom that forms a covalent bond with an atom on the target surface. The carbon based bond is a strong, non-hydrolysable covalent bond. Diazonium salts are utilised to produce the functionalised surfaces and they are particularly advantageous as they result in non-toxic readily escapable by-products | 09-11-2014 |
