Patent CA-2628095-A1 (CA)
Inventor: MARPLES DAVID
IPC: H04N7/173
Filed: 2006-11-01
Abstract: A digital content mediator ("DCM") communicates with a network resource controller/manager (NRM) to allocate the appropriate network resources for a digital content transfer. A DCM client provides a signal to the DCM requesting the desired digital content transaction. The DCM checks a content information database to see if the content transfer is allowed. If the transfer is allowed , the DCM then extracts content transfer information from the content information database that describes network resource characteristics for transfer of that content. The DCM then formulates a request to the Network Resorce Manager containing the source and destination endpoint information in addition to the network resource characteristics of the content to be transferred. The Network Resource Manager (NRM) then makes the appropriate resource allocations. If the request succeeds, the DCM "approves" the request and signals to the client that the transfer process can continue. At the end of the transfer process, after the DCM has verified that the destination user has received the desired digital content, the DCM provides a "signal" to the NRM requesting that the reserved network resources be de-allocated.

Title: A cmos linear voltage/current dual-mode imager
Inventor: GRUEV VIKTOR
IPC: H01L29/80
Filed: 2007-05-18
Abstract: A CMOS image sensor that is capable of both voltage- and current-mode operations selects the mode based on the position of mode switches. Each pixel on the imager has a single transistor acting as either source follower for voltage readout, or transconductor for current readout. The two modes share the same readout lines, but have their own correlated double sampling (CDS) units for noise suppression. A current-mode readout technique using a velocity- saturated short-channel transistor may be used to achieve high linearity. An image array may be formed as a mixture of 3 types of pixels with identical photodiodes and access switches. The readout transistors are optimally sized for their designated mode of operation. Alternatively, two readout transistors are provided per pixel, each individually optimized for the desired mode of operation.
