Abstract: A system for granting access to agents at a communication center in response to requests for connection from network-level entities starts a fairness timer having a fairness time period when a first request is received for and agent, monitors any other requests for the same agent during the fairness time, and executes an algorithm at the end of the fairness time to select the network-level entity to which the request should be granted. In a preferred embodiment the fairness time is set to be equal to or greater than twice the difference between network round-trip latency for the longest latency and shortest latency routers requesting service from the communication center. In some embodiments an agent reservation timer is set at the same point as the fairness timer to prevent calls to the same agent, and has a period longer than the fairness timer by a time sufficient for a connection to be made to the agent station once access is granted, and for notification of the connection to be made to network-level entities.  <IMAGE>

Abstract: A transport service provider provides a credit-based flow control scheme and is designed to operate over VI Architecture. The credit-based flow control scheme reduces overhead (e.g., reduces buffer copies and kernel processing) by relying upon the reliability properties of the underlying VI Architecture. If the number of send credits is sufficient, then the sender prepares and sends the packet. Otherwise, the sender sends a Credit Request and waits for a Credit Response. Upon receiving the corresponding Credit Response, the sender continues sending data packets. In response to a sender's Credit Request, the receiver sends the Credit Response only when it has enough receive credits (above a threshold value or low water mark).

Abstract: Polyurethane compositions are produced in a two-stage method. In a first step, a diol component with a molecular weight of less than 2000 is reacted with a monomeric diisocyanate with a molecular weight of less than 500 and the unreacted monomeric diisocyanate is removed from this reaction product. In a second step, the resulting high-molecular diisocyanate is reacted with a polyol to produce a reactive prepolymer with isocyanate and groups. The addition of polyisocyanates which are capable of migration and which have a substantially lower vapor pressure than diphenylmethanediisocyanate, improves the addition behavior of the invention polyurethane compositions. Reactive polyurethane compositions of this type are suitable for using as binding agents for reactive one or two component adhesives/sealants, which may optionally contain solvents. These compositions are also suitable for producing reactive hot melt adhesives when suitable polyols are selected. A substantial advantage of these compositions compared to known polyurethane compositions is the considerably lower proportion of monomeric diisocyanates with a molecular weight of less than 500.

Abstract: In a device for processing a stereo audio signal having a first channel and a second channel the stereo signal is at first analyzed to obtain a measure for a quantity of bits required by a coder to code the stereo audio signal using a coding algorithm. The first channel and the second channel are then modified when the measure for the quantity of bits is larger than a predetermined value, the modification being performed in such a way that the energy of a sum signal of the first and the second modified channel is in a predetermined relation to the energy of a sum signal of the first and the second channel and that a difference signal of the first and the second modified channel is attenuated in contrast to the difference signal of the first and the second channel. Especially for audio coders requiring a constant output bit rate the side channel is attenuated in the case of stereo audio signals, the coding of which cannot meet the output bit rate of the coder, by which a stereo channel separation is abandoned for the benefit of an increased audio bandwidth or a reduction of quantizing disturbances, respectively.

Abstract: An apparatus for use on a surface and responsive to an operator. A head assembly (46) is adpted to carry a device for engaging the surface (32). An actuator (38) raises and lowers the head assembly (46) relative to the surface (32). A position control responsive to operator input indicates a head (46) position of the device relative to the surface (32) or range of head (46) positions of the device relative to the surface (32). The head position or the range of head positions indicates a distance or range distances, respectively, between the device and the surface. A controller responsive to the position control selectively actuates the actuator to maintain the device in the head (46) position or within the range of head (46) positions as indicated by the position control. As a result, a repeatable position or range of positions of the brush head (46) is obtained, the relative engagement between the head assembly (46) and surface (32) is controlled and the treatment of the surface (32) by the head assembly (46) is controlled. Position control may be used in combination with torque control of motors driving brushes for engaging the surface. Position control may also be used in combination with a pressure control measuring the pressure between the brush head and the surface. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A gasification auger with a hopper reservoir (1) that feeds a variety of undried, friable materials to an auger (2) powered by a motor (3). Along the auger (2) there is a section where the helix is interrupted by a series of blades (5). Surrounding the output end of the auger tube (4) is a cylindrical combustion chamber (10,11), which generates heat to gasify the raw material whilst it is completely contained within the auger tube (4). The combustion chamber (10,11) has air direction tubes, between the inner combustion chamber (11) and the outer combustion chamber (10). Air and fuel is introduced to the combustion chamber (10,11) and the resulting heated gas is then extracted and can be used to run a variety of engines or equipment before being directed to a heating chamber (7) which may form part of an integral heat exchanger. The auger tube (4) is provided with apertures for the removal of gases (9), which can be fed to a burner (12) in the combustion chamber.

Abstract: The invention concerns processes for providing client access to a content provider server under resource locator server control. The client connects to a network through a computer and accesses the resource locator server. The locator server provides to the computer a resource locator. Said resource locator contains a digital signature representative of a right granted by the locator server to the client. Said signature is computed based on a unique computer characteristic or on the computer connection to the network. The client computer accesses the provider server using said resource locator. The provider server checks the digital signature for the client connection to the network, and allows the client to access content according to the result of the checking. The invention also concerns resource locator servers, content provider servers and computer program products. The invention avoids or makes very difficult link hijacking by the client. <IMAGE>
