| 20100306813 | Qualified Video Delivery - A video server is configured to provide streaming video to players of computer games over a computing network. The video server can provided video of different games to different players simultaneously. This is accomplished by rendering several video streams in parallel using a single GPU. The output of the GPU is provided to graphics processing pipelines that are each associated with a specific client/player and are dynamically allocated as needed. A client qualifier may be used to assure that only clients capable of presenting the streaming video to a player at a minimum level of quality receive the video stream. | 12-02-2010 |

| 20100027490 | SYSTEM AND METHOD USING MULTIPLE REQUEST TO SEND (RTS) MESSAGES TO ENHANCE WIRELESS COMMUNICATION RESOURCE ALLOCATION - A system and method using multiple request to send (RTS) messages to enhance wireless communication resource allocation. The system and method operates a receiver to receive an RTS message from a station operating in, for example, a very high throughput wireless local area network, and in response, to transmit an ask for request (AFR) message. The receiver can receive multiple RTS messages and in response, issue respective AFR messages, to thus perform RTS negotiation of resources for access by the stations. If the receiver fails to receive any further RTS messages due to, for example, collision of RTS messages sent by multiple stations or failure of any other stations to send an RTS message, the receiver can then issue a clear to send (CTS) message indicating to all stations that have sent an RTS message that they are clear to send to the receiver using the information contained in the AFR message. | 02-04-2010 |
| 20100061334 | WIRELESS LOCAL AREA NETWORK - A wireless local area network comprising an access point and a plurality of remote stations arranged to communicate using Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplex (OFDM). The system can operate in a first access mode wherein access to the access point is in accordance with a Carrier Sense Multiple Access (CSMA) scheme and in a temporary second access mode wherein access to the access point is in accordance with a Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA) scheme. A resource allocation of resource blocks when in the TDMA mode is furthermore such that resource blocks may be allocated to a plurality of remote stations which have overlapping time intervals and disjoint sets of OFDM subcarriers thereby allowing simultaneous communication for the plurality of remote stations within the overlapping time interval. The access operation is controlled by a single message transmitted from the access point. The invention may in particular be suitable for IEEE 802.11 systems. | 03-11-2010 |

| 20090088153 | Determining Mobile Phone Number Assignment - The present invention detects whether an initial mobile number assignment is suboptimal, resulting in excessive roaming. If excessive roaming is encountered, the telematics service provider determines the effective home area of the telematics unit and assigns an appropriate replacement number to the unit. In this way, the disclosed principles allow a telematics service provider to decrease its roaming charges, and/or those of its users, and more optimally manage its mobile phone number assignments. | 04-02-2009 |
| 20110141855 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR UPDATING INFORMATION IN ELECTRONIC CALENDARS - Systems and methods for updating information in an electronic calendar are disclosed. One example of the method includes recording a voice-tag memo via an in-vehicle telematics unit, the voice-tag memo containing information related to a calendar appointment, a calendar contact, or combinations thereof. The voice-tag memo is then converted into text via a speech-to-text unit in operative communication with the in-vehicle telematics unit. The method further includes determining, via a calendar comparator of an Internet-enabled program hosting the electronic calendar and in operative communication with the speech-to-text unit, which calendar appointment, calendar contact, or combinations thereof the voice-tag memo is associated with; and uploading the text to an appropriate cell of the calendar. The appropriate calendar cell is selected based upon which calendar appointment and/or calendar contact has the voice-tag memo associated therewith. | 06-16-2011 |
| 20110196805 | Rate Center Translation - The described system and apparatus facilitate the identification, on a per rate center (Npa Nxx) basis, of a best carrier rate center for a wireless subscriber, and also allow detection of errors in a provider's local inventory or in performance reference data. In one aspect, carrier performance data is combined with updated available inventory data via a SIT environment to create a correlated array of rate centers relative to service record and orderable carrier rate center inventory. The described system thus provides improved ordering and forecasting compared to existing systems, and can thus also provide enhanced customer satisfaction and a decrease in customer calls for HFC number change. | 08-11-2011 |

| 20100204106 | Use of GIP for the Treatment of Disorders Associated with Dysfunctional Synaptic Transmission - The present invention relates to a peptide comprising at least 12 amino acid residues from the N-terminal end of gastric inhibitory polypeptide, or an analogue thereof, which are useful to prophylactically prevent, improve, or reverse the diminished cognitive function associated with these types of disorders, by increasing (or sustaining) the LTP of synaptic transmission. Moreover, sustaining LTP may find utility in the prophylaxis of neurological disease by delaying the onset of impaired cognitive processes, and could serve as a treatment, not only for the diminished cognitive function caused by neurodegeneration, but also for the dysfunctional cognitive processes associated with trauma or age. Additionally, the peptides and analogues of the present invention find are useful to improve the altered cognitive function associated with hyperexcitability-type disorders, by reducing the elevated level of LTP of synaptic transmission. | 08-12-2010 |
| 20100227816 | Use of GLP-1 Analogues for the Treatment of Disorders Associated with Dysfunctional Synaptic Transmission - The present invention relates to a peptide analogue of glucagon-like peptide-1 (7-36), which is useful to prophylactically prevent, improve, or reverse the diminished cognitive function associated with these types of disorders, by increasing (or sustaining) the LTP of synaptic transmission. Moreover, sustaining LTP may find utility in the prophylaxis of neurological disease by delaying the onset of impaired cognitive processes, and could serve as a treatment, not only for the diminished cognitive function caused by neurodegeneration, but also for the dysfunctional cognitive processes associated with trauma or age. | 09-09-2010 |
