20120196644 | Dynamic Network Connection System and Method - A method and system for selecting a network to establish a connection to from a set of available network includes a network database providing historical information about each of the networks and sends the database information to end user terminals. The end user terminals monitor real-time performance information about each of the available networks and can send this information to the network database. The end user terminals also include network connection policy information which can be used to make the selection decision. The end user terminal determines a network quality score for each available network as a function of the historical information from the network database, the real-time performance information about each available network and the network connection policy information. The end user terminal can select the available network as a function of the network quality score, for example, selecting the available network with the highest network quality score. | 08-02-2012 |

20100317121 | PROTEIN SYNTHESIS MONITORING (PSM) - A method and a device are disclosed for monitoring the synthesis of proteins by the ribosome, wherein the ribosome is bound to a first label, for example a donor fluorophore, and a tRNA and/or amino acid are is bound to a second label, for example an acceptor fluorophore, wherein the first and second labels together from a FRET pair. As the ribosome mechanism processes the mRNA and tRNA molecules and synthesizes a polypeptide chain, a light source illuminates the ribosome, exciting the donor fluorophores and thereby the acceptor fluorophores whenever these are in sufficient proximity to a donor. The resulting signals are detected and used as a key for database searching and identification of the protein being synthesized. | 12-16-2010 |
