Title: Transmitting information to individuals and groups by exploiting lo cality factors whilst preserving user privacy
Inventor: ROSS GORDON
IPC: H04L29/06
Filed: 2000-01-25
Abstract: Developments in communications have increased the volume of traffic travelling over different circuits, including copper, fibre and wireless. The anarchic architecture of the Internet means problems of overload and slowness are likely to remain. Remedies have been found, including server caching and Internet accelerators, but these address symptoms not causes. Much of the traffic is unnecessary given what we know of human information processing. An alternative is presented. This method uses locality as a factor in determining routing, making it more predictable, shorter and faster than existing mechanisms. To preserve privacy the method hides locality cues within random and/or non-location specific addresses. The underlying geographic cues can be utilised for genuine purposes, but are not freely available. By hiding locality cues within the information substructure it gives additional degrees of anonymity and security to users, helping with both privacy issues and security so improving opportunities for electronic interaction and commerce.
Patent GB-2346490-A (GB)
Title: Connector for live electrical conductor
Inventor: BARNETT GARY
IPC: H01R4/24
Filed: 2000-02-03
Abstract: A connector designed for connection to a conductor while it is still live, has a body 1, 2 covered in an insulating shroud 12. The conductor 3 has insulation 3a. A bolt 5 is engaged in a threaded bore 4, and a hexagonal drive member 7 slides inside it. The drive member goes through an opening in the shroud 12 to a rotatable insulating cap 10. When the cap 10 is turned, the drive member 7 rotates the bolt 5, so that it pierces the insulation 3a and comes into contact with the conductor 3 (see fig 2). Rotating the cap further causes the drive member 7 to shear. The cap 10 and part of the drive member 7 can then be removed, whereupon flaps of the insulation 12 substantially close off the opening (see fig 3).

Title: Cutter element with region of compressive prestress on ultrahard outer surface
Inventor: YONG ZHOU
IPC: E21B10/56
Filed: 2000-04-14
Abstract: A cutter element (10) comprises a substrate (12) having a grip portion (16) and an extension portion (18), and a cutting layer (14), fixed to the substrate, having a cutting surface (15) and an interface surface (19) where the cutting surface includes a region of residual compressive stress. Preferably the region is located on the portion of the surface which is impact loaded during drilling and corresponds to the area in which the cutting layer is the thickest. The region may cover between 10% and 100% of the cutting surface. In an alternative embodiment either or both of the cutting and interface surfaces may include a concave portion (21) which preferably corresponds with the region of residual compressive stress. The region of compressive stress is created by varying the thickness of the cutting layer and results in a cutting element which is better able to withstand the application of localised tensile loads, increasing the wear resistance and life expectancy of the element.

Title: Casting of molten metal in an open ended mold cavity
Inventor: WAGSTAFF ROBERT BRUCE
IPC: B22D11/04
Filed: 1998-10-13
Abstract: When a body of startup material (70) has been interposed in the cavity (4) between the starter block (60) and a first cross-sectional plane (72) of the cavity transverse the axis (12) thereof, the starter block has commenced reciprocating along the axis, and the body of startup material has commenced reciprocating in tandem with it, through a series of second cross-sectional planes (74), layers (76) of molten metal are successively superimposed on the body of startup material adjacent the first cross-sectional plane of the cavity, and the layers promptly distend relatively periperally outwardly from the axis under the inherent splaying forces therein. The invention confines the relatively peripheral outward distention of layers with a casting surface (62) which is peripherally outwardly flared about the axis of the cavity, so that the thermal contraction forces arising in each layer can counterbalance the splaying forces.

Title: Synchronisation of real time clocks of separate devices
Inventor: MULLER THOMAS
IPC: H04J13/00
Filed: 2000-06-27
Abstract: Devices such as multimedia devices communicating by radio according to the Bluetooth standard are synchronised to a common time reference such as a clock signal producing a repetition of beats or instances. Each device also has a real time clock . A transmitting device acting as a master transmits the value of its real time clock together with an indication of the instance at which the clock was read. A receiving device acting as a slave synchronises its real time clock to that of the master by calculating from the received value and instance, a master real time clock value at a later instance to which it can adjust. Alternatively the transmitter calculates the value of its real time clock at a future instance and transmits the value and future instance to the receiver for it to synchronise to.
