Joel Wright Gannett, Atlantic Highlands, NJ US

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090213854EFFICIENT, FAULT-TOLERANT MULTICAST NETWORKS VIA NETWORK CODING - Fault-tolerant multicast networks via network coding comprises a digital signal operator that combines data signals multicast from multiple sources and transmits the combined data signal via a link to the next or destination node. In one aspect, the digital signal operator includes an exclusive-OR operator that performs a Boolean exclusive-OR function on the received bit streams of the multicast data from the plurality of sources.08-27-2009

20080234232Methods and compositions for targeting AFAP - Embodiments of the invention are directed to methods and compositions for inhibiting activation of cSrc by human actin filament associated protein (AFAP). Libraries and methods of screening compositions for inhibitive activity are also provided. Also provided are methods of treating cancer. Cancer may be, for example, but is not limited to ovarian cancer, breast cancer, and gastrointestinal cancer. Also provided are methods of decreasing resistance to chemotherapy.09-25-2008

20090042788Peptides and chemical compound for inhibition of SHP2 function - The present invention relates to the inhibition of the function of SHP2 by both anti-SHP2 peptides and the chemical compound 4-(2-sulfaminoethyl)benzoic acid, SEBA, and SEBA derivatives binding to the phosphotyrosyl phosphatase domain of SHP2 thereby inhibiting the function of SHP2 both in vitro and in vivo. In addition, the inhibition of SHP2 may be useful as a treatment for human disease, and it has been shown that interfering with SHP2 function using the anti-SHP2 peptides and SEBA compounds reverses cell transformation and induces remission of preformed tumors in vivo demonstrating a possible treatment for cancer.02-12-2009

20090028695Fluoropolymer bushings - A bushing-like part made from a fluoropolymer and circumferentially oriented continuous high tensile modulus fibers is useful as a part for pumps and compressors and other similar types of apparatus. These parts may be useful at high temperatures and/or very corrosive environments, often lengthen the time between required maintenance checks, and usually perform better than metal bushings under nonstandard operating conditions.01-29-2009
20090028696Thermoplastic polymer bushings - A bushing made from a thermoplastic polymer and circumferentially-oriented continuous high tensile modulus fibers is useful as a part for pumps and compressors and other similar types of apparatus. These parts may be useful at high temperatures and/or in very corrosive environments, often lengthen the time between required maintenance checks, and usually perform better than metal bushings under nonstandard operating conditions.01-29-2009
20110091706POROUS INFUSIBLE POLYMER PARTS - Porous infusible polymer (IP) parts are made by incorporating 0.2 to 10 volume percent organic fibers, preferably with short lengths, into the particulate IP, consolidating the mixture under pressure and optionally heating, and then “burning off” the fibers. After the fibers are burned off the resulting part has porosity in which the pores are elongated, usually retaining the shape of the organic fibers. When these parts are exposed to moisture (which they usually absorb) and then suddenly heated they tend not to blister from vaporization of the water. This makes them useful as parts for aircraft (jet) and other engines and other applications where sudden temperature increase may occur.04-21-2011
