Abstract: This invention overcomes the disadvantages of the prior art by
providing a method of calculating sorting costs for incoming mail. The
foregoing is accomplished by providing a method that can determine the
number and types of mailpieces being sorted and associated that number
with addressee information. The combination of the number and types of
mailpieces being sorted for the addressees can then be used to calculate a
charge back amount by using a predetermined cost per mailpiece. Thus, the
present invention is directed to, in a general aspect, a method of calculating
sorting costs for an incoming mail sorting apparatus having a database of
addressees for use in sorting incoming mailpieces comprising the steps of:
collecting information (124) about each one of a plurality of mailpieces sorted
using the incoming mail sorting apparatus, the information used to determine
a type of mailpiece for each one of the plurality of mailpieces; determining
(126) the type of mailpiece using the information collected; and associating
(128) the information about each one of the plurality of mailpieces sorted
using the incoming mail sorting apparatus with addressee information from
the database of addressees; calculating a piece count for each mailpiece for
each addressee; and calculating (134) a charge back amount from the piece
count and a predetermined cost.

Abstract: An apparatus and method of forwarding a first message from a source to a destination
via a link state routing network utilizes point-to-point feedback messages when the quality of
a first path from the source to the destination meets some prescribed condition. To that end,
the first path is initialized within the link state routing network. A feedback message having
data relating to a quality of the first path then is received as a point-to-point message that is
forwarded to the source. In response to receipt of the feedback message, a second path is
initialized from the source to the destination. The first message then is forwarded to the
destination via the second path.

Abstract: The invention provides for reducing the number of parts and the number of interfaces found in certain types of chemical reactors, particularly in electrochemical reactors, and especially in the type or reactor known as a fuel cell or fuel cell stack. This reduction comes from the use of a unified structure that combines the functions normally carried out by several components in the unit, particularly by combining the functions of the gas distribution structure and the gas diffusion structure, the gas distribution structure and the gas barrier structure, or all three structures into a single, unitary, metallic part. This offers the advantages of simplified design, better performance, and lighter weight.

Abstract: A front end signal processing method and apparatus for processing a signal from an image sensor are provided for readily clamping a black level, improving the manufacturing yield, and reducing the power consumption. A luminance detector/digitizer receives a sensor output signal from an image sensor, detects luminance information included in the sensor output signal, and generates a digital luminance signal representative of the detected luminance information. A digital processor receives the digital luminance signal, and multiplies the digital luminance signal by a predetermined gain code to generate the multiplication result as a front end processed signal output. An optical black clamp receives the digital luminance signal from the luminance signal detector/digitizer and supplies a feedback signal produced from the digital luminance signal to the luminance signal detector/digitizer to clamp a black level of the luminance signal to a constant value.

algorithm-based coefficient adaptation which executes in one
machine clock cycle one tap of the least-mean-square algorithm
including data fetch, coefficient fetch, coefficient adaptation,
convolution, and write-back of a new coefficient vector. A data
memory stores an input signal. A coefficient memory stores a
coefficient vector. A multiplication and accumulation unit reads

coefficient adaptation unit separate from the multiplication and
accumulation unit reads the input signal from the data memory and
reads the coefficient vector from the coefficient memory to
perform coefficient adaptation at the same time that the
multiplication and accumulation unit performs the reading to
produce an adapted coefficient vector which is written back into
the coefficient memory for use by the multiplication and
accumulation unit during a next iteration of convolution to
produce an output signal, wherein each tap is executed in one
machine clock cycle.
