Abstract:
A secondary battery having an upper battery assembly including an upper can housing a cap unit having an electrode terminal adapted to electrically connect to an external device and a gasket inserted between the cap unit and one end portion of the upper can for sealing and insulating the cap unit and the upper can. The secondary battery also has a lower battery assembly including a lower can housing an electrode assembly, the electrode assembly having a first electrode, a second electrode, and a separator interposed between the first electrode for preventing a short circuit between the two electrodes. A first electrode tap connects the first electrode to the cap unit and a second electrode tap connects the second electrode to the lower can.
Abstract:
An apparatus and a method support bidirectional pairing between devices. A connectable peripheral device is discovered. A list of discovered connectable peripheral devices is displayed. When a peripheral device is selected from the displayed list of the discovered connectable peripheral devices, an indicator operation request message for operating an indicator of the selected peripheral device is generated and transmitted to the selected device. The selected peripheral device operates the indicator according to the indicator operation request message to indicate a connection request from the device.
Abstract:
A power supply has a TRIAC dimmer, and an AC-DC converter connected to the TRIAC dimmer. The AC-DC converter has a power switch, a bleed switch, and a controller. The controller turns off the bleed switch in a first time duration and turns on the bleed switch in a second time duration. Magnitude of a current of the power switch in the first time duration is larger than magnitude of a current of the power switch in the second time duration. Magnitude of a current of the bleed switch in a third time duration within the second time duration is smaller than magnitude of a current of the bleed switch in a fourth time duration within the second time duration.
Abstract:
A multi-channel music reproducing apparatus and method using a wired and/or wireless communication system are provided. The method includes confirming neighboring devices capable of wired and/or wireless communication; allocating audio channel information to confirmed neighboring devices; encoding the channel information and reproduction synchronization information as index information; transmitting the index information together with a music data file; receiving the encoded index information and music data; decoding the allocated channel information and the synchronization information; and outputting music data corresponding to the allocated channel.
Abstract:
The present application discloses a method of treating a disease that is treatable by therapeutic angiogenesis comprising administering to a needy subject an effective amount of a chimeric coiled coil molecule comprising a coiled-coil domain linked to a receptor binding domain of a ligand.
Abstract:
A seed light module for a WDM-PON system is provided. The seed light module includes a reflector configured to reflect a part of seed light that is generated from a light source generator, and an optical attenuator configured to attenuate the intensity of the reflected seed light and provide the attenuated seed light, which corresponds to a signal generated by attenuating the intensity of the reflected seed light, to the light source generator.
Abstract:
An injection mold includes a first mold part provided with a first mold surface and a second mold part provided with a second mold surface to form a cavity together with the first mold surface. Cooling channels along which a cooling fluid flows are provided in at least one of the first mold part and the second mold part, and a heat generating layer which receives power and then generates heat is disposed on the inner surfaces of the cooling channels and serves as a heater.
Abstract:
Provided are a method and apparatus for allocating a storage space that is to be used by a plurality of modules sequentially processing data. The method includes acquiring first capacity information regarding the capacity of a storage space needed for data processing of a first module and second capacity information regarding the capacity of a storage space needed for data processing of a second module that processes data consecutively to the first module, and allocating a first storage space to be used by both the first module and the second module based on at least one of the first capacity information and the second capacity information.
Abstract:
A coverage technique for testing a multithreading environment is provided. The coverage technique schedules the execution order of mutually exclusive synchronization block pairs, wherein the mutually exclusive synchronization block pairs are defined by associating synchronization blocks that are detected from a plurality of threads each including synchronization blocks and can be simultaneously executed, to induce execution conflictions of the mutually exclusive synchronization blocks, thereby efficiently testing the corresponding multi-threaded application.
Abstract:
An analyte sensor including an antiglycolytic agent or a precursor thereof and a chelating agent that stabilizes the antiglycolytic agent positioned proximate to the working electrode of the sensor. Also provided are systems and methods of using the electrochemical analyte sensors in analyte monitoring.
