Abstract: An edge router (6) for multicast data transfer comprises a cache (10). In response to a request for a file from a host (3a), the router (6) retrieves the file from a content provider (2). The file, comprising data packets A-G, is stored in the cache (10) before transmission to host (3a) to allow the receipt of requests for the same file from other hosts (3b, 3c). A timer is activated to count down through a predetermined waiting period T. A file delivery group is defined, comprising host (3a). Any other hosts (3b, 3c) located in the same cell as host (3a), requesting the same file during period T are added to the group. When a predetermined number of requests have been received or, alternatively, when the waiting period T expires, the file is retrieved from the cache (10) and forwarded to the hosts (3a, 3b, 3c), in the group.

Abstract: A method of detecting frequency errors in a receiver during frame synchronization. A fast synchronization and reliable reception of the data requires a fast determination of frequency errors in the received signal. In CPFSK and OFDM, the frequency offset is even more important because of potential subcarrier interference. The method operates in the time domain and removes the 2p limitation in the phase representation by an unwrap function allowing a precise frequency determination.

Abstract: The invention relates to an impartial method of obtaining the result of a game
played over a communication network using related computing means and/or
computer programs. The inventive method employs cryptographic protocols and
processes which have been specially designed in order to ensure security and
honesty in the playing of games of chance over a communication network and to
enable said games to be subdequently audited. The aforementioned cryptographic
protocols and processes allow the game to be played in an honest and auditable
manner without the need fo a trustworthy entity to manage the game. 
     More specifically, the method consists in identifying the different elements of
the game, sorting said elements, secretely assigning an randomly permutation of said
elements to each player, applying a commitment protocol to said permutation, making
the result of the commitment accessible and, finally, generating the result of the game
using at least part of said secret permutations.

Title: Disposable weight-reducing suction cup
Inventor: HAGIWARA HIDENORI
IPC: A61H9/00
Filed: 2002-12-05
Abstract: A projection is formed at a top of a disposable suction
cup for slimming, to be closely applied to a part of the body
to be slimmed. A thin walled portion is provided in an interior
surface of the cup, corresponding in position to the proj ection.
The cup is closely applied to the part of the body to be slimmed
and depressurized with a depressurizing valve, thereby
suctioning the part of the body to be slimmed. Thus,
subcutaneous fat is dissipated at the part of the body to be
slimmed. After the suction, the projection is bent to break
the thin walled portion, thereby forming an aperture at the top
of the cup. Thus, air pressures inside and outside the cup are
equalized, enabling easy removal of the cup from the body. The
disposable suction cup may be provided inexpensively, as it has
no complicated depressurization relief mechanism.
