| 20120101504 | FLEXIBLE ATTACHMENT FOR AN EXTRAMEDULLARY SURGICAL INSTRUMENT - An extramedullary cut guide alignment assembly allows various adjustments to the cut guide without introducing bending stresses in the rest of the assembly. More particularly, the angular orientation of the cut guide with respect to the tibia may be freely changed during use, while maintaining the angular orientation of the proximal fixation arm of the alignment assembly with respect to the proximal tibial surface to which the arm is affixed. To achieve this decoupling of the angular orientations of the fixation arm and cut guide, the proximal fixation arm is pivotably mounted to the cut guide alignment assembly. Thus, the alignment assembly may be adjusted as necessary to achieve a desired angular orientation of the cut guide mounted thereto, while the pivotable junction between the alignment assembly and the proximal fixation arm automatically adjusts to accommodate the changing angular arrangement. | 04-26-2012 |

| 20090094446 | INTEGRATED CIRCUIT ENVIRONMENT INITIALIZATION ACCORDING TO INFORMATION STORED WITHIN THE INTEGRATED CIRCUIT - A method for automatically initializing the operational settings of a system from information stored within a non-volatile storage of an integrated circuit so that the operational requirements of the integrated circuit, which may be a microprocessor, are met by the system when the system is operating. During manufacturing test environmental requirements of the integrated circuit are determined and stored within the non-volatile storage of the integrated circuit. During system initialization, environmental control values such as required operating voltage and frequency and cooling requirements are determined from the test values, which are read from the integrated circuit. The values are read by an interface of the system from an interface of the integrated circuit. System settings are controlled by the values to provide the required operating environment and the values may be captured within the system for subsequent operations and initialization sequences. | 04-09-2009 |

A cache may be maintained in the access network. | 03-04-2010 |
| 20100057926 | DIGITAL CUSTOM DATA CONTENT INJECTION MECHANISM FOR A CONTENT DELIVERY NETWORK - A content selection and injection mechanism is provided for a communication network. In the communication network, an electronic device inserts custom data content into a data stream. The electronic device accepts a data stream from a location in the access network and identifies an insertion point suitable for inserting the custom data content into the data stream. The electronic device also selects the custom data content from a local content storage repository located in the access network, and inserts the custom data content into the data stream at the identified insertion point. The electronic device may identify a targeted user for receiving content, and select the custom data content based on the identity of the targeted user. | 03-04-2010 |
| 20100057995 | CONTENT REPLACEMENT AND REFRESH POLICY IMPLEMENTATION FOR A CONTENT DISTRIBUTION NETWORK - A method for replacing, refreshing, and managing content in a communication network is provided.

| 20110101937 | Voltage Regulator with Virtual Remote Sensing - An automatic voltage compensation circuit in a voltage regulator compensates the output voltage for a voltage drop along lines leading to a remote load. A load capacitor is connected across the load for providing a low impedance across the load during a test phase of the regulator. In one embodiment, during the test phase, the load current is changed up or down a small percentage (e.g., 10%). As a result, the regulator voltage changes due only to the line resistance since the load is bypassed by the load capacitor. The voltage drop at full load current is then derived by detecting the change in regulator output voltage (a fractional voltage drop) and multiplying it. The normal mode is resumed, and the derived voltage drop is added to the regulator output by either compensating the feedback loop or by adding the voltage drop to the output of the regulator. | 05-05-2011 |
