Patent CA-2210200-A1 (CA)
Title: Method and device for determining the effect of the adjustment of actuators
Inventor: GRIECH WOLFGANG
IPC: D21G9/00
Filed: 1996-10-25
Abstract: Disclosed is a process for determining the effect of an adjustment of final control elements used in the manufacture of a material web, said control elements being distributed over the web width and influencing the web characteristics. The process is characterised in that: when at least one of the final control elements is adjusted, a prediction on the effect of the adjustment is made on the basis of known values via the behaviour of the web characteristics-cross section as the control elements are adjusted; at least one web characteristics-cross section is measured before and after adjustment of the control elements; the prediction on the effect of the control element adjustments is compared to the measured effect; the current known values are adjusted until a better match is obtained between the predicted and measured effects.

Patent CA-2210649-A1 (CA)
Title: Roll-up crowd gate
Inventor: KLEIN ERIC
IPC: A01K1/00
Filed: 1997-07-10
Abstract: A roll-up crowd gate comprises an electrically charged drum that is rotatable in a carriage.  Long cables connected to the drum are also electrically charged.  A rope translates the carriage in tracks between upstream and downstream locations.  Translation of the carriage in the downstream direction when the cables are unrolled from the drum urges a first herd of cows to the downstream location.  Carriage stops in the tracks stop carriage translation at the downstream location, but continued operation of the rope when the carriage is against the stop causes the drum to roll up the cables.          Reverse operation of the rope translates the carriage above the first herd to the upstream location.  A carriage stop at the upstream location stops carriage translation, but continued operation of the rope rotates the drum and unrolls the cables behind a second herd of cows.

Title: Path restoration of networks
Inventor: DOHERTY LANCE
IPC: H04L12/24
Filed: 1997-08-13
Abstract: A    distributed    method    for    creating telecommunications paths in a network, particularly after a span failure. The network includes plural distinct nodes interconnected by plural distinct spans, each span having working links and spare links. Each node has a digital cross-connect switch for making and breaking connections between adjacent spans forming span pairs at a node. At least  one  of  the  end nodes  of  a path to be  created broadcasts statelets. Each intermediate node between the end nodes broadcasts incoming statelets in a manner that favours use of restoration paths that eliminate the fewest other paths.  Statelets  that  have traversed spans with greater spare capacity, considering the number of statelets competing  to  be  broadcast   along  the   spans,   are preferentially broadcast.

Title: Method for pulse shape regulation and discrimination in a nuclear spectroscopy system
Inventor: STOLLER CHRISTIAN
IPC: G01V5/12
Filed: 1997-08-29
Abstract: The present invention is based on a digital pulse sampling and detection technique, which samples the (nuclear) pulse train at a constant frequency asynchronously with the actual pulses, which occur at random times. The fact that many samples are available for each pulse allows many pulse train analysis operations, such as: 1 ) pulse integration (area determination under pulse), 2) pulse shape discrimination, 3) pile-up rejection and 4) time of arrival determination (multiscaler analysis) which traditionally were done through complex analog circuits to be done in a compact digital arrangement. This invention deals with the first 3 aspects of digital pulse train analysis.
