Patent EP-1545943-A2 (EP)
Inventor: DINSDALE PAUL
IPC: B60R21/233
Filed: 2003-10-02
Abstract: A dual stage inflator (20) for providing an extended flow of inflation gas to an airbag or inflatable curtain (10) is disclosed. The inflator (20) includes a first gas chamber (66) having an exit orifice (70), the exit orifice (70) having an open configuration and a closed configuration. Additionally, the inflator has a second gas chamber (68) in gaseous communication with the first gas chamber (66). The first and second gas chambers (66, 68) are separated by a flow restrictor (80) positioned between them. This restrictor controls the flow of gas out of the second gas chamber (68). The inflator (20) includes an initiator in communication with the interior of one of the gas chambers that is configured to selectively initiate a flow of gas through the exit orifice (70) of the first gas chamber (66). The exit orifice (70) of the inflator may be disposed within an inlet port (60) of an inflatable curtain (10) to cause inflation gases exiting the inflator (20) through the exit orifices (70) to enter directly into the airbag or inflatable curtain (10).

Title: Systems and methods for constructing and using models of memorability in computing and communications applications
Inventor: HORVITZ ERIC J
IPC: G06F3/0484
Filed: 2004-01-14
Abstract: One or more models of memorability are provided that facilitate various
computer-based applications including those centering on the storage, retrieval, and
processing of information, applications that remind people about items they nsk not
recalling or overlooking, and facilitating communications of reminders. In one
application, the models are used to help compose and navigate large personal stores of
information about a user's activities, communications, images, and other content. In
another application, views of files in directories are extended with the addition of
memory landmarks, and a means for controlling the number of landmarks provided  via 
changing a threshold on inferred memorability. Another application centers on the use of
models of memorability to select subsets of images from larger sets representing events,
for display in a slide show or ambient photo display. In another application, a system is
provided that facilitates computer-based searching for information by providing for the
design and analysis of timeline visualizations in connection with displaying results to
queries based at least in part on an index of content. A query is received by a query
component (which can be part of search engine that provides a unified index of
information a user has been exposed to). The query component parses the query into
portions relevant to effecting a meaningful search in accordance with the subject
invention. The query component can access and populate a data store which may include
information searched for. A landmark component receives and/or accesses information
from the query component as well as the data store, and anchors public and/or personal
landmark events to search results-related information.

Abstract: A force-applying input device has a controller which
calculates a torque component of an actuator drive signal
corresponding to a current position by multiplying the sum of
the current position and the product of a current speed and a
coefficient by an elastic modulus. In addition, the
controller also calculates a torque component of the actuator
drive signal corresponding to the current speed by
multiplying the current speed by a coefficient of viscous
friction.

Abstract: Disclosed is an optical add/drop multiplexer connected to an optical fiber for
transmission of a multiplexed optical signal, and adapted to add a channel to the optical
signal or to drop a channel from the optical signal. The optical add/drop multiplexer
includes a wavelength division multiplexing/ demultiplexing (WDM) unit connected to the
optical fiber, having input and output ports providing a path for a multiplexed optical
signal, and a plurality of demultiplexing ports respectively providing paths for

thereof, to a lower-order port, and a reflector for passing or reflecting a channel inputted
thereto. The first circulator receives a channel at a second port and outputs the channel to a
third port connected to the reflector. The first circulator receives, at the third port, the
channel from the reflector, and outputs the secondarily received channel to a fourth port,
thereby dropping the channel. The second circulator receives a channel at a first port,
outputs the received channel to a second port connected to the reflector, receives, at the
second port thereof, the channel from the reflector, and outputs the secondarily received
channel to a third port connected to a first port of the first circulator, thereby adding the

Abstract: To fabricate back side contact pads that are suitable for
use in a vertical integrated circuit, vias are made in the
face side of a wafer (110), and dielectric (140) and contact
pad metal (150) are deposited into the vias. Then the wafer
back side is etched until the metal is exposed (150C). When
the etch exposes the insulator at the via bottoms (140A,
140B), the insulator is etched slower than the wafer material
(e.g. silicon). Therefor, when the dielectric is etched off
and the metal is exposed, the dielectric protrudes down from
the wafer back side around the exposed metal contact pads, by
about 8 µm in some embodiments. The protruding dielectric
portion improve insulation between the wafer and the contact
pads when the contact pads are soldered to an underlying
circuit.

Abstract: Packet scheduling apparatus schedules packets of data for transmission from a transmitter such as a Note B to a plurality of receivers such as a plurality of UEs via at least one channel, for example in a high-speed downlink packet access system (HSDPA). A first measures producing unit (12) produces first measures of scheduling performance in at least two different aspects. A decision unit (16) employs a weighted combination of the first measures to decide the receiver(s) to which packets are to be transmitted. The weighted combination is produced by combining the first measures according to respective corresponding weights (WEIGHTS). A second measures producing unit (24) produces at least one second measure of scheduling performance. A classifying unit (28) classifies the weights for the or each second measure into at least two different classes of weights according to a probable influence the weight is expected to have on the second measure concerned. A weight adapting unit (20) employs the or each second measure, together with the classification of the weights for the or each second measure, to adapt the weights. Such packet scheduling apparatus can adapt flexibly to different channel and input load conditions.
