Abstract: This invention provides a method and apparatus for allocating pools of resources of a communication system to nodes and end users serviced by the nodes. The nodes are coupled to a communications network through interface units. The interface units are organized as a pool and may be either preassigned to each of the nodes or may be dynamically allocated to the nodes based on end user requests. All the nodes of the communication system uses a common frequency band. Each of the nodes is coupled to the communication network through a dedicated channel. Thus, bandwidth available to the end users are greatly expanded without expensive and complex upgrades to existing equipment.

proper data. The maker and model of a receiver and the
version of a control program are stored in a load section
as a maker ID, a model ID, and a version ID. The section
number and the total number of sections are also stored.
It is checked whether the maker ID and the model ID
coincide with those stored in the ROM of the receiver to
check whether the version number is newer than that of the
control program of the receiver. Therefore, it can be
checked whether the program should be downloaded. With
reference to the list of section numbers which have been
downloaded, it can be found whether a program divided into
a plurality of sections to be transmitted is completely
downloaded. With reference to the list of section numbers

Abstract: The present invention concerns a method of cutting the selvedge on the weft
insertion side on a rapier loom operating with one weft thread supply bobbin. 
     The conventional method of cutting the selvedge presently in use on rapier
looms implies the necessity of forming a false selvedge on the weft insertion
side which then is severed from the edge of the fabric and thus constitutes a
considerable waste of material the economic importance of which increases
with the value of the threads processed. 
     The present invention proposes to eliminate this loss of material and to simplify
the loom design. 
     These objectives of the present invention are attained by completely eliminating
the formation of a false selvedge and by cutting each weft thread as soon
as it is beaten up while it is subject to a tensioning action by a holding device
(13). In this manner fabrics woven from one weft source can be produced provided
with a perfect selvedge without wasting material and using one scissors
(14) device only instead of two as used according to the state of the art.
