Abstract: The present invention discloses a system and method for delegated page specialization based on a page layer concept. A page consist of a set of layers. Except the first layer each layer represents a delta (container, frames) in its layout to its previous layer introduced on the corresponding level of administration. Administrators can modify the previous layers by defining new immutable and optional containers or frames on the page (delta). Only the deltas to the previous layers are stored with assignments to their parent layers. Immutable containers or frames of previous layers cannot be modified. The final page is automatically constructed as an union of deltas being stored in a so called tree-structure. The delegated page specialization is preferably accomplished via a GUI-component which supports the administrators.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method and an apparatus for determining the risk of ice deposition due to precipitation. According to the invention the measurements of precipitation known so far are combined with measurements of the actual amount of ice deposited from the precipitation. Said measurements are combined in a combination unit that is able to receive further parameter information, eg the amount and type of anti-icing liquid. Compared to previously a considerably more reliable determination of the risk of ice deposition is accomplished, eg on the wing of an aeroplane applied with anti-icing liquid, and so is reliable determination of the holdover time, HOT, during which one can be sure that the aeroplane is free from ice in the current weather conditions.

Abstract: According to the invention, a wireless terminal and an access point/AP/ of a wireless local area network WLAN being part of the LAN are able to exchange data for the setup of a wireless link while the wireless terminal being unknown to the AP. The wireless terminal and the AP comprise an interface for the wireless link and means for interacting via the interface by exchanging data frames. The interacting means are adapted for constructing generated data frames for transmission and for decoding received data frames. Such wireless link corresponds to a restricted association being identified by a specific data from an exchanged data frame. And the restricted association corresponds to a restricted access within the LAN, the restricted access being defined by a dedicated virtual LAN/VLAN/. Such restrided access may be advantageously adapted for a telecommunication like an emergency call set up from the wireless terminal.
