Abstract: Attraction consisting of a number of gondolas (7,37,47) arranged a fixed distance apart which move along a fixed endless track (4), such as a circle. By this means a difference in height of at least approximately 30 metres is travelled. The gondolas are linked to one another in such a way that the distance between them remains constant and are guided along a track (14) by means of a roller construction (15,16,17). Driving takes place with the aid of a drive cable (8,9) and with the aid of a supporting platform (18) that can turn with respect to the gondolas it is ensured that the users are always in the same position.

storing the first user-specific information item (404, 406, 408, or 410) in a user
information file or message (402) of the mobile station (102); and repeating the acts
of reading and storing for at least a second user-specific information item (404, 406,
408, or 410) associated with a second file or application of the mobile station (102),

Abstract: An electronic trading system including various rules is described
herein. Many of the rules relate to implementing periods of exclusive priority
in trading. For example, in one of the rules, an exclusive period of trading
may be controlled by an aggressor and a designated passive participant. The
aggressor may have exclusive rights on his side of the trade at a particular
price point for a particular time. The aggressor may elect to change the price
point at which he controls the trade to a new price point which is more
favorable to him. Thereafter, another participant may assume the exclusivity
of the trade by entering the trade on the same side of the aggressor at the old
price point. In so doing, the other participant also preferably truncates the
aggressor's exclusivity at the new price point.

Abstract: A method for estimating an impedance of a material behind a casing wall in a borehole, the method comprises exciting (602) the casing wall with an acoustic pulse, and measuring (603) an experimental acoustic waveform (W) reflected from the casing wall. The method further comprises initializing (600) an impedance parameter (Zin), computing (601) an inverse casing response ( R     cas     -1 ) as a function of the impedance parameter, and deconvoluting (604) the experimental acoustic waveform with the inverse casing response to obtain a transducer response (T). An iterative loop (605, 606, 607) is performed, comprising the computing of an inverse casing response and the deconvoluting of the experimental acoustic waveform by varying (607) the impedance parameter until the transducer response becomes compact (605, 606) in the time domain. The estimated impedance (Zcem) is obtained (606) from the impedance parameter when the transducer response is compact.

Abstract: A higher degree of freedom in the forwarding process can be obtained by investigating which destinations and/or flows that are represented in a transmitting node and selecting relay direction through a wise choice of destination and/or flow. In effect, the forwarding algorithm jointly selects i) a relay node among multiple relay candidate nodes and ii) at least one of a) flow among multiple flows and b) destination among multiple destinations. The transmitting node then selects a set of information heading for a selected destination and/or belonging to a selected flow from the transmit queue, and finally transmits the selected information to the selected relay node. The joint selection process is often based on cost progress, and may be even forward progress in geographic distance. It is however also possible to consider e.g. QoS (Quality of Service) aspects and fairness criteria in the selection process.

Abstract: A radio base station includes multiple antennas associated with a cell. Multiple mobile radios are selected to receive transmissions over a shared radio channel during a predetermined time interval. Information is transmitted over the shared radio channel to multiple mobile radios in the cell during the predetermined time interval using multiple antenna beams. As a result, interference from the transmission appears as white additive Gaussian noise in time and in space in the cell. A "flashlight effect" caused by a single beam transmission over the shared channel during a predetermined time interval that would normally detrimentally impact mobile channel quality detection is avoided. Other methods for avoiding the flashlight effect are described.
