Title: A method and system for identifying bottlenecks in a securities processing system
Inventor: ORTMAN ROY T
IPC: G06Q10/00
Filed: 2001-10-24
Abstract: A system and method of assessing the ability of a securities processing syst em to implement automated processing of securities asset management functions within the securities processing system are disclosed. A computer-implemente d, menu-driven application provides resources for managing a plurality of activities for assessing the ability of a securities processing system to apply straight through processing to securities transactions. Critical issue s in implementing the automated processing of securities asset management functions in the securities processing system are identified and captured on  electronic documents. Process and technology performance information for the  current state of the securities processing system is captured using computer - implemented templates to record human resource utilization, level of automation, and volume date across a set of processes defined within the business and technology environments. This current process and technology performance information is analyzed with respect to a desired future state f or the securities processing system implementing automated processing of securities management functions and scored. Information is also gathered regarding systems external to and connected to the securities processing system, such as business partner systems, vendor systems, and the industry- wide system. The ability of these external systems to implement automated processing of securities asset management functions is evaluated, and their potential impact on the securities processing system is assessed. Recommendations for improving process and technology performance for the securities processing system are formulated and prioritized. Tasks associate  with the prioritized recommendations are defined and includes in an implementation plan. Progress on the tasks of the straight through processin g implementation plan are assessed and monitored on an ongoing basis.

Title: Telecommunications network with automatic detection of the topology and method for this detection
Inventor: RAMBALDI ANTONIA
IPC: H04L12/56
Filed: 2002-04-25
Abstract: A telecommunications network with system for automatic detection of the topology of the network or of a sub-network thereof, comprising a plurality of network elements or nodes linked together to establish communications trails with termination points in ports of elements of the plurality of network elements. Each termination point is assigned a unique address in the network or in the sub-network and the corresponding network element sends along the outgoing trail from the termination point a message representing the unique address assigned and which is intended for the termination point at the other end of the trail. Each network element at either end of a communication trail therefore receives the message representing the address of the termination point of the element at the other end. In this way, each termination point of a connection will have received in the message the information that identifies the other termination point to which it is connected. A method for automatic detection of the topology of the network is also described.

Title: Utilisation et production d'une cle de session dans une connexion ssl
Inventor: COULIER FRANK
IPC: H04L29/06
Filed: 2002-04-30
Abstract: Cette invention décrit un procédé (200) et un système permettant de vérifier la liaison entre une clé publique et l'identité d'un serveur telle que déclarée dans le certificat du serveur, sans qu'il soit nécessaire de se fonder sur la fiabilité du certificat de base de la chaîne de certificat du serveur. Ce système établit une connexion de type SSL (201) entre un client et un serveur, lequel transmet au client l'information contenant la clé publique du serveur, au moment de l'établissement de la connexion. Ensuite, une première information est envoyée du client au serveur (202). Le client et le serveur créent une clé d'authentification identique, en utilisant un secret partagé connu du serveur et du client (203 et 204). Le serveur transmet ensuite au client (206) un premier message crypté, lequel contient la clé publique du serveur cryptée à l'aide de la clé d'authentification. Le client décrypte alors le premier message crypté et vérifie l'exactitude (207) de ce message, notamment en comparant la clé publique incluse dans le premier message crypté décrypté avec la clé publique transmise pendant l'établissement de la connexion de type SSL, afin d'authentifier le client et afin d'établir la fiabilité de la clé publique du serveur et, partant, de la connexion SSL dans son ensemble. Le client transmet alors au serveur (209) un second message crypté, qui est constitué par la première information cryptée à l'aide de la clé d'authentification. Enfin, le serveur décrypte le second message crypté et vérifie l'exactitude de ce second message crypté décrypté, pour authentifier le client (210).

Patent CA-2451897-A1 (CA)
Title: Method for delivering data over a network
Inventor: CHAN GIN-MAN
IPC: H04N7/173
Filed: 2002-07-29
Abstract: A new method and system for delivering data over a network to a large number of clients, which may be suitable for building large-scale Video-on-Demand (VOD) systems. In current VOD systems, the client may suffer from a long latency before starting to receive the requested data that is capable of providing sufficient interactive functions, or the reverse, without significantly increasing the network load.  The method utilizes two groups of data streams, one responsible for minimizing latency while the other one provides the required interactive functions. In the anti-latency data group, uniform, non-uniform or hierarchical staggered stream intervals may be used.  The system may have a relatively small startup latency while users may enjoy most of the interactive functions that are typical of video recorders. Furthermore, the method and system may also be able to maintain the number of data streams, or the bandwidth, required.
