| 20090249328 | COMPONENT-BASED SOFTWARE INSTALLATION - A system and method for automated management of a multi-component software installation. The software product comprises multiple components that can operate independently, but which may operate better (e.g., with more or different functionality) if able to call another component (a “supplying” component). A persistent data store records the installation status of the components (e.g., as static Boolean values). Each installed component that depends on another component (i.e., can benefit from calling an element of the other component) is coded to compile conditionally, based on whether the supplying component is installed. If installed, the supplying component can be linked at compile time; if the supplying component is not installed, the installed component compiles and runs without the benefit of the supplying component. | 10-01-2009 |

| 20090012406 | METHOD AND SYSTEM OF USING INTRINSIC-BASED PHOTOSENSING WITH HIGH-SPEED LINE SCANNING FOR CHARACTERIZATION OF BIOLOGICAL THICK TISSUE INCLUDING MUSCLE - Biological thick tissue such as skeletal and cardiac muscle is imaged by inserting a probe into the tissue and scanning the tissue at a sufficiently fast rate to mitigate motion artifacts due to physiological motion. According to one example embodiment, such a probe is part of a system that is capable of reverse-direction high-resolution imaging without staining or otherwise introducing a foreign element used to generate or otherwise increase the sensed light. The probe includes a light generator for generating light pulses that are directed towards structures located within the thick tissue. The light pulses interact with intrinsic characteristics of the structures to generate a signal such as SHG or intrinsic fluorescence. Reliance on intrinsic characteristics of the structures is particularly useful for applications in which the introduction of foreign substances to the thick tissue is undesirable. | 01-08-2009 |
| 20110166632 | MATERIALS AND APPROACHES FOR OPTICAL STIMULATION OF THE PERIPHERAL NERVOUS SYSTEM - A variety of methods, devices, systems and arrangements are implemented for stimulation of the peripheral nervous system.
