Inventor: CISEK RONALD J
IPC: B65D33/16
Filed: 2005-04-13
Abstract: A closure device having first and second fastening strips arranged to be interlocked over a predetermined length is provided. Each of said first and second fastening strips includes first and second closure elements separated by an intermediate area, wherein the first closure element on the first fastening strip is arranged to be interlocked over a predetermined length with the first closure element on the second fastening strip, and the second closure element on the first fastening strip is arranged to be interlocked over a predetermined length with the second closure element on the second fastening strip. Each of the closure elements may be colored with a colorant.  For example, the closure elements on one fastening strip may be colored with an opaque pigment, and the intermediate area on that fastening strip may colored with a first translucent pigment. The closure elements on the other fastening strip may be colored with a translucent pigment, and the intermediate area on that fastening strip may be colored with a second opaque pigment. When the closure device is occluded, the colors of the first and second pigments combine to cause a change in color. The change in color may be observed from either side of the closure device.

Title: Method for making a two-dimensional helical fibre web
Inventor: DELECROIX VINCENT
IPC: D04H1/559
Filed: 2005-04-20
Abstract: A transverse fibre web (102) is lapped by being guided reciprocatingly in a substantially radial direction along a travel path between the outer and inner peripheral edges of said web, wherein the transverse web (202) is turned over at each end of the travel thereof and the width thereof is reduced between the outer peripheral edge and the inner peripheral edge. The transverse web is held while being lapped.

Abstract: A singular value decomposition method for decomposing a singular value of a given matrix A by means of a computer. The method comprises steps of upper-double-diagonalizing the matrix A to determine an upper-double-diagonalized matrix B of the matrix A, determining a singular value .sigma. of the matrix B  as the singular value of the matrix A, and determining the singular vector of the matrix A for .sigma.. The step of determining the singular vector of the matrix A includes a substep of twisted-decomposing a matrix BTB-.sigma.2I (I  is a unit matrix) by using the Miura inverse transformation, the sdLVvs transformation, the rdLVvs transformation, and the Miura transformation to diagonalize the matrix BTB.

Abstract: A method and system for managing information in a multi-hub system for supply chain management and collaborative planning. A technique is presented from managing communications in a multi-hub model. First, consistency of data throughout the system is maintained by limiting which entities in the supply chain have the authority to write to the data. Various techniques for determining which entity has such authority are presented. Second, the relative complexity of transactions is determined by identifying how much computer processing is required. Transactions that require little processing are handled by lightweight servers (114); transactions that required moderate to extensive processing are sent to heavyweight servers (112). The end user (131) receives information about the transaction more rapidly because the transactions are processed more efficiently.
