| 20090106722 | DESIGN AUTOMATION METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR ASSESSING TIMING BASED ON GAUSSIAN SLACK - An automated design process using a computer system includes identifying a set of timing endpoints in a circuit defined by a machine-readable file. Values of slack in the estimated arrival times for the timing endpoints are assigned. Probability distribution functions, such as Gaussian distributions, are assigned for the respective values of slack, and are combined. The combination of probability distribution functions represents a measure of circuit performance. The measure is computed for alternative implementations of the circuit, and used to identify an alternative more likely to meet timing constraints. | 04-23-2009 |

| 20100147401 | Sprinkler With Pressure Regulation - A sprinkler pressure regulator module has a compact arrangement with a shiftable member having an upper cavity for receiving water flow debris, and a portion of a bypass valve may reciprocate therein. The module includes a stator plate directing water into a drive mechanism, such as a turbine drive mechanism. The shiftable member receives fluid flow from a radially outboard direction and is sealed with a cup portion receiving the shiftable member to define a cup cavity. A module exterior surface is separated from a sprinkler housing to define a vent cavity. A pressure release vent communicates with the cup cavity, a vent channel between the cup portion and the exterior surface, the vent cavity, and the exterior environment. The vent cavity and cup portion provide receptacles for debris deposit. Ribs around an opening of the vent channel with the vent cavity generally prevent debris from entering the vent channel. | 06-17-2010 |

| 20100311186 | DEVICES AND METHODS FOR PERFORMING RECEPTOR BINDING ASSAYS USING MAGNETIC PARTICLES - The present invention provides methods, devices, and systems for performing receptor binding assays. In particular, magnetically responsive particles configured to form a complex with a labeled conjugate corresponding to one or more analytes of interest can be moved within an assay device to one or more discrete detection regions through the application of one or more magnetic fields. By positioning the detection region such that the direction of this movement is, for at least a portion of the movement, counter to the direction of fluid flow within the device, detection of assay signals can be performed without the need for separate wash steps. Moreover, contamination of the signals resulting from labeled conjugate being carried in the direction of fluid flow substantially reduced. | 12-09-2010 |

| 20100008453 | ANTENNA ARRAY PATTERN DISTORTION MITIGATION - At least one feature provides a way to perform point-to-multipoint transmissions using adaptive or directional antennas while reducing antenna pattern distortion. Generally, rather than transmitting the same waveform to two or more receivers, an information-bearing signal is transformed into different decorrelated waveforms and each decorrelated waveform is transmitted to a different receiver. In one implementation, an information-bearing signal is transformed into two decorrelated signals such that their crosscorrelation, or autocorrelation of the information-bearing signal, is zero or very small. Such decorrelation may be achieved by sending a first signal to a first receiver while sending a second signal, having a radio frequency spectrum that is the spectrally inverted version of the first signal, to a second receiver. In another implementation, a first signal is transmitted to a first receiver and is also transmitted to a second receiver with a time delay. | 01-14-2010 |
