Systems and methods for navigating hypermedia using multiple coordinated input/output device sets. Disclosed systems and methods allow a user and/or an author to control what resources are presented on which device sets (whether they are integrated or not), and provide for coordinating browsing activities to enable such a user interface to be employed across multiple independent systems. Disclosed systems and methods also support new and enriched aspects and applications of hypermedia browsing and related business activities.

Method and Apparatus for Browsing Using Alternative Linkbases

Disclosed is an ultrasonic surgical instrument that combines end-effector geometry to best affect the multiple functions of a shears-type configuration. The shape of the blade is characterized by a radiused cut offset by some distance to form a curved geometry. The cut creates a curved surface with multiple asymmetries causing multiple imbalances within the blade. Imbalance due to the curve of the instrument is corrected by a non-functional asymmetry proximal to the functional asymmetry. Imbalance due to the asymmetric cross-section of the blade is corrected by the appropriate selection of the volume and location of material removed from a functional asymmetry. The shape of the blade in one embodiment of the present invention is characterized by two radiused cuts offset by some distance to form a curved and potentially tapered geometry. These two cuts create curved surfaces including a concave surface and a convex surface. The length of the radiused cuts affects, in part, the acoustic balancing of the transverse motion induced by the curved shape.

The present invention provides an approach for identifying with high accuracy, a known protein or a variant of the known protein derived from the same genomic gene as in a target protein to be analyzed, based on a mass spectrometric result of a plurality of peptide fragments obtained from site-specific enzymatic digestion of the target protein to be analyzed by referring to nucleotide sequences of genes encoding known proteins on a database and to deduced full-length amino acid sequences thereof. In the approach of the present invention, a candidate known protein of identification is specified with high accuracy by such a process comprising steps of comparing actually measured molecular weight values of the peptide fragments derived from the target protein to be analyzed, which are obtained with the use of peptide fragmentation by the site-specific proteolytic treatment, with predicted molecular weight values of peptide fragments predicted from the deduced full-length amino acid sequences of the known proteins and making comparison in terms of the numbers of matching fragments, the consecutiveness of amino acid sequences of matching fragments of the known protein, and the prediction of variation in a mismatching fragment.

An optical transmission system using a partial response encoded signal is disclosed, which improves the wavelength tolerance, compensates the dispersion in a simple way, reduces the limitation of the fiber input power. The transmitting operation includes receiving a clock signal from a system clock source (2); modulating a single mode optical signal based on the clock signal and generating an optical pulse signal having two longitudinal modes, the frequency interval between the two modes being n x B, where n is a natural number and B is a transmission speed; generating a partial response encoded signal by converting a binary NRZ encoded signal output from a digital signal source (5) in synchronism with the system clock source; and modulating the optical pulse signal having two longitudinal modes based on the partial response encoded signal, and outputting a binary RZ modulated signal obtained by the modulation. The transmitted binary RZ modulated signal is input into a receiver. Two partial response components included in the optical spectra of the input signal are divided, and one or both of the divided components are received.
