Abstract: Disclosed is a system for authoring metadata that describe multimedia contents. A storage device loads information on a currently edited metadata document so as to describe multimedia contents, and a metadata editor visualizes the loaded metadata document according to a predetermined method, and allows a user to edit the metadata document. A multimedia access reproducer accesses the input multimedia contents to reproduce corresponding multimedia contents, and an inter-media metadata interface links the multimedia access reproducer and the metadata editor to browse contents and effectively edit information relating to a specific interval of multimedia contents. A metadata output device outputs information on the loaded metadata document according to a predefined format.

Abstract: This invention relates to an apparatus for the detection of the hydrogen content of an object, wherein said apparatus comprises a neutron source that emits fast/energy-rich neutrons; a detector device for detecting thermal neutrons; a moderator that brakes and reflects neutrons upon collision; wherein said detector device comprises a light-emitting unit that emits light in case of a nuclear event/reaction with a thermal neutron; a light-registering unit that emits an electric pulse/an electric signal when a flash of light is detected; and wherein said moderator is a light-conductive unit arranged between said light-emitting unit and said light-registering unit. Moreover the invention relates to a corresponding method of detecting hydrogen. Hereby an apparatus and a method are provided for the detection of humidity/water/hydrogen with improved sensitivity which entails that the used neutron source need not be as powerful and that smaller amounts of hydrogen can be detected compared to previously suggested solutions. Moreover, a reliable non-modifying/non-destructive detection is provided.

Abstract: In order to display a part being observed in ultrasonic scanning within a body cavity clearly and a desired section easily, ultrasonic wave is scanned and is obtained in the body cavity. Then, an ultrasonic image creating unit creates an ultrasonic image therefrom. A schematic diagram data creating unit extracts schematic diagram data read from a schematic diagram data storing unit based on the attitude/position signal indicating the attitude of an object and the position for scanning ultrasonic wave in the body cavity, which are obtained from a position/orientation detecting unit. An image synthesizing unit synthesizes the ultrasonic image created by the ultrasonic image creating unit and the schematic diagram data created by the schematic diagram data creating unit. Then, a display displays the ultrasonic image and the schematic diagram corresponding to the position for scanning ultrasonic wave on the same screen. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for providing measurements on a bit-rate provided to scheduled data having a guaranteed bit-rate and being transmitted on at least one dedicated uplink data channel by at least user equipment via a C-RNC. Further, the invention also relates to a method for initiating congestion control for scheduled data of at least one guaranteed bit-rate priority class in a mobile communication system. Moreover, the invention relates to a C-RNC as well as a serving radio network controller performing these methods. To enable the C-RNC within a mobile communication system to perform congestion control for uplink transmissions having a guaranteed bit-rate the invention suggests to provide the C-RNC with a bit-rate being provided to scheduled data of the guaranteed bit-rate priority class using common or dedicated measurement procedures. This provided bit-rate is evaluated and taken as a basis for deciding on whether congestion control for data of the priority class needs to be performed.
