Start point

Abstract: PURPOSE: A method for searching a cell in a mobile communication system is provided to search many start points of slots in a first step, when a sync channel signal is transmitted to a terminal from a base station of a mobile system in a code division multiple access(CDMA). The method is provided repeatedly to execute second step, not to the first step, by use of other start point when an error generated in executing a second or third step, or to repeatedly execute the first step, simultaneously with repeating the second step. CONSTITUTION: A method for searching a cell in a mobile communication system, contains steps. The first step is to detect a sync channel signal, searching a start point of slots having predetermined priority. The second step is to detect the signal, standardized of a start point of a slot having a highest priority, searching where a start point of a frame is and which of a base station group the signal is included. The third step is to detect a common control physical channel signal, fit a synchronism with a base station of a strongest tensity of the signal, by use of information on the base station group and the frame start part. The fourth step is to repeat the second step, standardized of a start point of a slot having a second priority, when which group of the signal and where the frame is, are not searched in the second step, or a cell supplied from the base station is not searched in the third step.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for automatically gathering data on paths taken by a number of commuters and then analyzed to provide recommendations for improving the commute experience. Data may be gathered by recording time and position data from a global positioning system (GPS) receiver the commuter carries, recording time and position data from a mobile phone the commuter carries, departure or arrival indications, or a commute log. Commute data may be augmented with a likely route generated based on a start point, an end point, and a map. Commute data may be analyzed by determining a subset of the commuters whose paths are similar. For example, they have a similar start point, a similar end point, a similar start point and a similar end point, a start point similar to a particular point, an end point similar to a particular point, or similar start and end points.

Abstract: and therefore may affect the success of microfinance initiatives. Readers would have benefited from an analysis of the effect of microfinance initiatives on women's economic independence and status in society. Second, given the regional concentration of microfinance initatives in the south of India, discussion on why northern states have been slow to encourage microfinance would have also been insightful. Nonetheless, Karmakar's edited volume provides a detail-laden introduction to the issue of microfinance in India. In doing so, it complements a number of recent works on this issue, including Ghate (2007), Sharma (2007), and the annual Microfinance in India: State of the Sector Report.

Abstract: Slowly growing budding yeast store carbohydrate, then liquidate it in late G1 phase of the cell cycle, superimposing a metabolic cycle on the cell cycle. This metabolic cycle may separate biochemically incompatible processes. Alternatively it may provide a burst of energy and material for commitment to the cell cycle. Stored carbohydrate could explain the size requirement for cells passing the Start point.
