Abstract: A variable valve mechanism varies a lift amount of an inlet valve. A throttle valve is provided upstream of the inlet valve and varies an opening area of an induction passage. An automatic stopper automatically stops the internal combustion engine. A controller can put the internal combustion engine in a first induction control state in which the lift amount of the inlet valve is equal to or smaller than a predetermined amount and the opening of the throttle valve is larger than a predetermined opening with respect to a predetermined running state. The controller can put the internal combustion engine in a second induction control state in which the left amount of the inlet valve is larger than the predetermined amount and the opening of the throttle valve is equal to or smaller than the predetermined opening with respect to the predetermined running state. The automatic stopper automatically stops the internal combustion engine in a case where the lift amount of the inlet valve is equal to or smaller than the predetermined amount, when a stopping condition of the internal combustion engine is met under which a predetermined vehicle state is produced.

Abstract: Method to customize an application associated with a television experience based on the recognition of users located in front of a display and in the field of view of a camera, comprising the following steps: 
- an initialization step during which each user is enrolled in a database of a computer system and is defined by a profile referenced by a profile ID and comprising the user name, biometric data and additional personal data, 
- a finding step during which a wide image, acquired by said camera is scanned to isolate at least one user's faces, to define a marking area surrounding it, to memorize the position of said marking areas, 
- a matching step to extract the biometric data from said marking area, to match them with the biometric data of the profiles stored in the database, and to assign the detected profile ID with the marking area. 
     While subsequent identification is requested by the application, the following steps are executed 
- acquiring a wide image with the camera, 
- extracting the areas of said image according to the marking areas, 
- extracting for a particular marking area the biometric data of a face, 
- starting the comparison of the extracted biometric data with the biometric data of the profile ID related to this marking area, and in absence of match, continuing with the other biometric data of the database until one profile is found, 
- transmitting the found profile ID to the application.

Abstract: A channel structure has at least two channel sets. Each channel set contains multiple channels and is associated with a specific mapping of the channels to the system resources available for data transmission. Each channel set may be defined based on a channel tree having a hierarchical structure. To achieve intra-cell interference diversity, the channel-to-resource mapping for each channel set is pseudo-random with respect to the mapping for each remaining channel set. In each scheduling interval, terminals are scheduled for transmission on the forward and/or reverse link. The scheduled terminals are assigned channels from the channel sets. Multiple terminals may use the same system resources and their overlapping transmissions may be separated in the spatial domain. For example, beamforming may be performed to send multiple overlapping transmissions on the forward link, and receiver spatial processing may be performed to separate out multiple overlapping transmissions received on the reverse link.

Abstract: A TV-set is equipped with HDMI and USB connections that allow it to display and run audio-video content from a variety of conventional consumer devices. The TV-set is further equipped to provide a secure HDMI-USB interface that will allow the transfer of licensed high definition content and Internet subscriber services. Such secure HDMI-USB interface also enables a selection of proprietary application modules to be attached. Downloadable user interface templates, much like XML style sheets, are rendered to a user interface displayed on the screen. These are associated with corresponding thumbnails and URI's that allow a user to surf through lists and catalogs of materials, and then to play them in the appropriate formats and provide the machine with a customized controller. A remote commander is simplified, yet expanded to control all the attached devices through interactions with the user interface. The functions of the remote commander's keys change depending on where the user is navigating and what device is being controlled, similar to so-called soft-keys.
