Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20110181343Power controlling integrated circuit and retention switching circuit - A power control integrated circuit is provided having a voltage switching device and a retention switching device that has an input from an overdrive voltage supply such that in a retention enabled configuration a retention switching device is switched on more strongly relative to being both coupled to and driven from the voltage supply input signal associated with the voltage switching device. An overdriven retention switching device is provided as a separate entity from the voltage switching device itself and a computer readable storage medium is provided storing a data structure comprising a standard cell circuit definition for use in generating validating the circuit layout of a circuit cell of an integrated circuit. The circuit cell comprising an overdriven retention switching device. A further data structure corresponding to a standard cell is provided comprising an overdriven retention switching device and a voltage switching device and yet a further standard cell data structure is provided comprising an overdriven voltage switching device.07-28-2011

20090066164Power Controlling Integrated Circuit Cell - A power controlling integrated circuit cell is provided within an integrated circuit power grid to selectively couple an unswitched power supply input to a switched power supply output. The power controlling integrated circuit cell also includes a power control signal input and a power control signal output for supporting the distribution through the integrated circuit of the power control signal. The power controlling integrated circuit cell has a power switching circuit responsive to a power control input signal received at the power control signal input to selectively connect the switched power supply output to the unswitched power supply input, and a power control signal buffer circuit responsive to the switched power supply output to drive a power control output signal from the power control signal output.03-12-2009

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20110209965TWO-SPEED CLUTCH AND RETRO-FIT KIT - A magnet holder assembly for a clutch includes a magnet holder and first and second permanent magnets. The magnet holder includes a body portion, a first groove defined in the body portion, a second groove defined in the body portion adjacent to the first groove, and a flange extending from the body portion opposite the first groove and extending in a different direction than the first groove. The flange has a connection feature for securing the magnet holder to a rotatable component of the clutch. The first permanent magnet is radially retained by the first groove in the body portion, and the first permanent magnet has a beveled edge configured to mate with the first groove. The second permanent magnet is radially retained by the second groove, and the first permanent magnet and the second permanent magnet have magnetic orientations arranged substantially opposite one another.09-01-2011

20100042463Method and Apparatus for Supporting Delivery, Sale and Billing of Perishable and Time-Sensitive Goods Such as Newspapers, Periodicals and Direct Marketing and Promotional Materials - Systems and methods provide for tracking, controlling, optimizing, and otherwise managing the delivery of perishable and time-sensitive goods such as newspapers, periodicals and promotional materials to consumers, both subscribers and non-subscribers, and to retail outlets. One exemplary arrangement includes a web server, a database server, and handheld computers. A database including at least route delivery information may be created and at least portions of the database may be communicated to respective handheld devices for display. Time-sensitive goods such as newspapers or periodicals may be delivered based at least in part on the information displayed on the handheld devices, which are also used to collect information during said delivery. The collected information is communicated to the database for billing, reporting and analysis. Features include intelligent advanced shuffle handling and tracking, web-based planning tools, sequencing of distribution outlets along a trip or route, delivery without employing paper lists, trip management/tracking, intermittent or continual connectivity and/or data reporting, time stamping/time-based tracking, and retail manager signature input as part of data collection. Support for ASP, service-oriented business models may be provided.02-18-2010

20090104153METHOD OF ELICITING IMMUNE RESPONSE - The present invention relates to methods of eliciting an immune response by use of a prime-boost schedule for delivering a polynucleotide encoding a heterologous non-self antigen. In particular, the invention relates to a prime-boost schedule wherein the priming polynucleotide composition is delivered by an adenoviral vector, and the boosting polynucleotide composition is coated on or incorporated in a particle and is administered by a particle acceleration device.04-23-2009
20090208515VACCINE COMPOSITION - The present invention relates to virus vectors comprising oligonucleotides encoding HIV polypeptides, more particularly wherein the virus vector is an adenovirus. In particular, such adenoviruses are non-human primate adenoviruses such as simian adenoviruses, more particularly chimpanzee adenoviruses. In particular the invention relates to adenovirus vectors which comprise HIV polynucleotide sequences which encode multiple different HIV antigens, for example two or three or more HIV antigens. The invention further relates to methods of preparing the virus vectors, to the virus vectors produced by the methods and to the use of the vectors in medicine especially prophylactic or therapeutic vaccination.08-20-2009
20090274726SYNTHETIC GENE - The present invention relates to synthetic genes, processes for designing said synthetic genes and their uses in gene therapy and improved DNA vaccination. The novel synthetic genes and processes are codon shuffled so that they have reduced homology relative to a naturally occurring gene encoding the same protein without altering the overall codon usage frequency of the gene. In particular the present invention relates to improved polynucleotides and methods for the treatment or prevention of disease comprising codon-shuffled GM-CSF nucleic acid sequences. Nucleic acid vaccines of the present invention may comprise a combination of a nucleotide sequence encoding codon-shuffled GM-CSF, a nucleotide encoding an antigen against which it is desired to raise an immune response and a toll-like receptor (TLR) agonist.11-05-2009
