Abstract: The present invention relates to a bait station comprising a base, a reservoir, a cover, and a latch. The base may be used in two different orientations and includes a first section and a second section. The first section has climbing assisting members and a cavity with a reservoir receiving area, and the second section has side climbing assisting members. The climbing assisting members and side climbing assisting members of the base provide a textured surface that enables insects to crawl into and out of the bait station more easily. The reservoir contains poisonous bait and may be placed in two different positions within the reservoir receiving area to accommodate the two different orientations in which the base may be used. The reservoir includes tapered sides with climbing assisting members. The climbing assisting members provide a textured surface that enables insects to crawl into and out of the reservoir more easily. The reservoir also includes an aperture proximate a corner of the reservoir, which provides an entrance into and out of the reservoir and reduces the rate of evaporation of the poisonous bait. The tapered sides of the reservoir also reduce the rate of evaporation of liquid bait because as the volume of the bait decreases, the surface area of the bait exposed to air flowing in and out of the reservoir is also decreased. Finally, the cover is configured and arranged to fit over the base, and the latch secures the cover to the base.

Abstract: A dynamic queue allocation and de-allocation mechanism for managing traffic flowing through a switching node. If a packet matches conditions of a particular QoS policy rule, a determination is made as to whether a queue associated with the matched QoS policy rule exists on an egress port that is to forward the packet. If such a queue does not exist, a determination is made as to whether enough resources are available for dynamically creating the queue according to the QoS action parameters of the matched QoS policy rule. If the new queue may not be created because of resource limitation, queues of lower priority existing on the port are reclaimed and their resources reassigned to the new queue. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Techniques for determining the location of a device based on an initial coarse position estimate for the device, which is derived based on initial (less accurate) estimates of the position of a plurality of transmitters. In one method, the coarse position estimate for the device and revised (more accurate) position estimates for the transmitters are received. A revised position estimate for the device is initialized (e.g., to the coarse position estimate). An update vector is next computed based on the initial and revised position estimates for the device and the initial and revised position estimates for the transmitters. The revised position estimate for the device is then updated based on the update vector. The computation for the update vector and the updating of the revised position estimate for the device can be repeated a number of times to achieve a more and more accurate estimate.

Abstract: Un centre d'appel multimédia est constitué de pilotes de groupe d'agents et de pilotes de file d'attente génériques, communiquant via un réseau local d'entreprise (RLE). Les caractéristiques génériques des pilotes de file d'attente sont une entrée, et un ensemble ordonné de sorties, présentant chacun une mémoire destinée à une adresse de destination définie par le concepteur. Ainsi, les pilotes de file d'attente d'entrée multimédia peuvent être commandés afin d'acheminer directement à un pilote de groupe d'agents, via une sortie primaire, ou à un pilote de file d'attente suivant en fonction d'un paramètre de sélection d'un enregistrement d'appel, un utilisateur d'appel a, par exemple, composé un numéro en réponse à une annonce de menu provenant de l'appareil à réponse vocale dialoguée (RVI), et, dans ce cas, les numéros de menu posséderont un rang correspondant de sorte que les sorties ordonnées puissent être utilisées directement afin d'acheminer vers le pilote approprié suivant. Le concepteur peut spécifier les destinations des sorties secondaires et autres, qui peuvent être des pilotes de groupe d'agents de débordement, des pilotes de file d'attente, ou, dans le cas d'un pilote de file d'attente de deuxième stade, le pilote de file d'attente du premier stade d'entrée du réseau.
