Abstract: A vessel positioning system maneuvers a marine vessel (10) in such a way that the vessel (10) maintains its global position and heading in accordance with a desired position and heading selected by the operator of the marine vessel (10). When used in conjunction with a joystick (50), the operator of the marine vessel (10) can place the system in a station keeping enabled mode and the system then maintains the desired position obtained upon the initial change in the joystick (50) from an active mode to an inactive mode. In this way, the operator can selectively maneuver the marine vessel (10) manually and, when the joystick is released, the vessel (10) will maintain the position in which it was at the instant the operator stopped maneuvering it with the joystick (50).

Abstract: A message interworking gateway (1) resides in an overlay IMS network (2) associated with a home SS7 network (10). The gateway (1) intercepts requests for routing information (MAP-SRIs) from either the home SMSC (11) or a foreign SMSC. If the message recipient is available on the IMS overlay network (2) the gateway (1) performs protocol translation AND routes the translated message to the recipient. If not, the gateway returns the SRI to the home (10) network. The gateway operates without updating the home HLR (12) with user presence data and hence voice traffic can be kept on circuit switched technology without being routed to the IMS overlay network (2).

Abstract: The present invention concerns a receiving unit and a writing device which can be used in conjunction with an electronic paper display system. The writing device transmits power and baseband signals by using an electromagnetic coupling between a coil of the writing device and a coil of the electronic paper. The baseband signals, which are encoded by the writing device, are decoded by a decoder of the electronic paper and fed to a control circuit to illustrate images on a bi-stable display unit, the control circuit and the display unit being part of the electronic paper. The electronic paper has a power storage means that temporarily stores power transmitted by using the electromagnetic coupling for absorbing fluctuations of power in both transmission and consumption. The asynchronous design of this invention brings both robustness and low-power consumption.

Abstract: A process for the preparation and modification of additives, with a zeolite base and a high silica alumina ratio (SAR) like the ZSM-5, to increase the yield of propene and LPG in low severity FCC operations, that seeks to maximize the production of medium-distillates with low aromaticity and to minimize molecular cracking in the LCO range. The additives involved guarantee an increase in light olefin yields without altering the yield or the quality of the LCO produced. The innovative process includes surprising actions from rare earths (RE) on the active sites of zeolite, that at once partially block their pores and, in this way, make molecular cracking in the medium-distillate range difficult, which preferably occur at low reaction temperatures and keeps the remaining sites quite active. These sites are sufficiently active to crack smaller molecules in the gasoline range, guaranteeing an overall increase in light olefins and allowing the additive involved to be used industrially in operations to maximize medium-distillates in an FCC unit. This new additive may be obtained by modifying any commercial ZSM-5 zeolite additive.
