IPC: H04L9/14
Filed: 1995-01-24
Abstract: A secure network data communication technique that allows the designation of selected network nodes to share encryption keys with other selected network nodes. A message originating node determines nodes along a message route with which it shares encryption keys. One of these keys is selected and a message is encrypted with the key. The identity of the originating node and the decrypting node that also knows the selected key is added to the encrypted message in clear form. The decrypting node receives the message, recognizes its identity in the message and decrypts the message using the key shared with the originating node. If it is also not the destination node, it repeats the process of selecting a new encrypting node with which it shares a key, re-encrypting and transmitting re-encrypted message toward the destination.

Abstract: L'invention décrit un procédé pour modifier un oligonucléotide, lequel procédé est applicable pour détecter un analyte polynucléotidique. Un oligonucléotide est hybridé de manière réversible avec un polynucléotide, par exemple un analyte polynucléotidique, en présence d'une 5'-nucléase, dans des conditions isothermiques. L'analyte polynucléotidique sert d'élément de reconnaissance pour permettre à une 5'-nucléase de cliver l'oligonucléotide pour obtenir (i) un premier fragment sensiblement non hybridable avec l'analyte polynucléotidique et (ii) un second fragment qui se trouve en 3' du premier fragment (dans l'oligonucléotide intact) et est sensiblement hybridable avec l'analyte polynucléotidique. On obtient un excès molaire du premier et/ou du second fragments d'au moins un facteur 100 par rapport à la quantité molaire de l'analyte polynucléotidique. La présence du premier et/ou du second fragment est détectée, laquelle indique la présence de l'analyte polynucléotidique. Ce procédé s'applique particulièrement à la détection d'un analyte polynucléotidique comme l'ADN. L'invention décrit également des matériels pour réaliser des procédés selon la présente invention.

Abstract: A speech recognition method and apparatus which has a first stage to provide keyword hypotheses and a second stage to provide testing of those hypotheses by utterance verification. The utterance verification used has three separate models for each word: one keyword verification model, one misrecognition verification model, and one non-keyword verification model. Further, all three are developed independently of the recognizer keyword models. Because of this independence, the three verification models can be iteratively trained using existing speech data bases to jointly provide a minimum amount of verification errors.

Abstract: A control station for use individually or as an
element of a distributed process control system has an
improved high frequency isolation and grounding system
incorporating a "Chomeric" conductive foil tape on both
the cabinet front and back walls as well as on the doors
and a V-shaped "Chomeric" conductive gasket placed
between the cabinet wall and the door in the area of the
conductive tape to insure proper sealing of the door and
opening to eliminate all RFI (radio frequency
interference) problems and meet European standards for
RFI cabinet emissions. This cabinet also has a grounding
system comprising a large area swing clip for removing
the door as well as a hybrid grounding circuit to
eliminate ground potential differences due to geological
variations found in different parts of the landscape
since the signals reaching the cabinet may originate at
remote locations up to a mile or more from the cabinet.
The circuit accomplishes this by grounding the DC signals
at only one end while the AC signals are grounded at both
ends.

Abstract: A network and CD-ROM caching product that runs under both Windows 3.X and Windows 95, is completely transparent to end-users, and works with a wide variety of file systems running under both Windows 3.X and Windows 95 is disclosed. The approach used to fulfill these requirements has been to utilise the services provided by a virtual device driver (VxD) supplied with Windows 95 known as the Installable File System Manager (IFSMGR). Windows 95 is designed so that all file system input/output (I/O) requests may be "hooked" to the IFSMGR VxD. The disclosed caching product is effectively "layered" between the IFSMGR VxD and the generic file system of Windows 95. The disclosed caching product has been designed so that it will run under both operating systems. This has been accomplished by rewriting portions of the Windows 95 IFSMGR VxD, enabling it to run under Windows 3.X. The rewritten version is based on the IFSMGR specification provided by Microsoft Corporation.
