20120274896 | SYSTEMS, METHODS AND COMPUTER-READABLE MEDIUM FOR DETERMINING DEPTH-RESOLVED PHYSICAL AND/OR OPTICAL PROPERTIES OF SCATTERING MEDIA BY ANALYZING MEASURED DATA OVER A RANGE OF DEPTHS - In depth-resolved imaging of scattering media, incident light interacts with tissue in a complex way before the signal reaches the detector: Light interacts with media between the light source and a specific depth, then scatters at that depth and the backscattered light again interacts with media on its way to the detector. The resulting depth-resolved signal therefore likely does not directly represent a physical or optical property of the media at those depths. Exemplary systems, methods and computer-accessible medium can determine physical or optical properties based on such depth-resolved signals. For example, almost all the light can interact with the media, and that the energy of the incident light at a certain depth is likely therefore related to the integral of the scattered light from all deeper locations. Based on the detected signals, the properties of the media can be estimated in an iterative way. | 11-01-2012 |

20100299433 | NETWORK RESOURCE MANAGEMENT - The invention provides real time dynamic resource management to improve end-to-end QoS by mobile devices regularly updating a resource availability server (RAS) with resource update information. Examples of resource update information are device battery status, available memory, session bandwidth, delay, packet loss, and jitter, network element storage capacity, network element processing power. This information is made available by the RAS. In addition, the RAS generates and maintains predictive models and makes available predictive data from these models. Network elements and devices retrieve this information in the form of notifications from the RAS or by way of querying the RAS. The network elements and devices, based on these predictions, act to negotiate sessions to optimise QoS. In one embodiment the RAS is updated by only mobile devices subscribed to the operator which hosts the RAS. The update information is addressed to the RAS as a stand-alone entity. However, it is envisaged that the server may be hosted by multiple operators and may receive updates from devices subscribed to different operators. Also, it is envisaged that not only mobile devices but also network elements such as MMSCs may send update information. | 11-25-2010 |

20100217817 | MESSAGE DELIVERY IN MOBILE NETWORKS - When a device is switched off, all messages for that device are stored in different distributed service centres. For example, the message from user A may be stored in SMSC A and a message from user B in SMSC B where both subscribers and respective SMSCs can even belong to different networks. When the device is switched on again it notifies its presence to the network (performed by the MSC indicating this to the HLR). As a result of this alert, different service centres that have messages pending for that device will be notified that the device has come on-line again (performed by the HLR notifying SMSC A and SMSC B). Instead of directly sending out all messages, as in the prior art, each service centre instead schedules the messages in an internal queue for delivery according to a local control scheme, which achieves synchronised delivery from multiple distributed SMSCs even though there is no centralised control. Each service centre maps the ‘age’ of the message on its time axis as the time-to-deliver the message to the device. The deliveries are then sent out according to the derived schedule. As independent service centres all will base their decisions on the same length of the delivery schedule and same maximum retention time, the message deliveries of the different service centres will be interleaved with one another. This ensures that for significant time differences, messages from different service centres will still arrive in order at the device. | 08-26-2010 |

20160001838 | CARRIER RACK ADAPTER KIT FOR ADAPTING A LUGGAGE CARRIER RACK OF A BICYCLE - In a carrier rack adapter kit for adapting a luggage carrier rack of a bicycle, a fastening bolt is extending via a first passageway through an auxiliary luggage carrier structure, via a second passageway through a first rod clamping head, and via a third passageway through a second rod clamping head. In reaction to a tightening action on the fastening bolt, shear forces along first and second inclined outer surface portions of the first and second rod clamping heads are urging the rod clamping heads to move towards one another. The carrier rack adapter kit allows for universal, easy and quick mounting of an auxiliary luggage carrier structure above luggage carrier racks of various configurations and various dimensions. | 01-07-2016 |
20160001839 | Fixing system - Disclosed is a fixing system for fixing containers such as bags or baskets on a handlebar of a bicycle, comprising at least one, preferably at least two handlebar bands slidable over the handlebar in a sliding-on direction and at least partially embracing the handlebar in the slid-on position, and a carrying bracket, comprising a carrying-bracket-side coupling element for receiving the container, arranged on a cantilever section of the carrying bracket, the carrying bracket further comprising a receiving section, able to be brought into coupling engagement with the handlebar bands against the sliding-on direction and thus positionable on the handlebar by preferably fixedly clamping the handlebar, further comprising at least one securing means frictionally engageable in a rigid manner between the cantilever section and a component of the bicycle other than the handlebar, and preferably a handle stem, so that rotation of the cantilever section relative to the handlebar is prevented. | 01-07-2016 |
