Inventor: PETTY NORMAN WESLEY
IPC: G06F13/00
Filed: 1996-08-21
Abstract: Initially storing multimedia messages from an originating communication terminal to a destination communication terminal on the destination communication terminal. If the destination communication terminal cannot store messages, then the message is stored on the originating communication terminal. The destination communication terminal may not be able to store messages because it no longer has present message storage facilities on an internal storage unit or it does not have any internal storage capability for messages. Similarly, the originating communication terminal also may have exceeded its capacity to store messages or may not have any internal storage devoted to the storing of messages. The destination communication terminal maintains a list of messages that are stored on other communication terminals. In addition, if the originating communication terminal cannot store messages, a message is stored on a third terminal which has the capacity to store messages. The messages stored on the third communication terminal are encrypted to protect the privacy of users of the originating and destination communication terminals.

Abstract: A speech decoding method and apparatus for decoding encoded speech signals and subsequently post-filtering the decoded signals. The filter coefficient of a spectral shaping filter 440 in a post-filter fed with an encoded and subsequently decoded speech signal is updated with a sub-frame period, while the gain of a gain adjustment circuit 443 for correcting gain changes caused by the spectral shaping is updated with a frame period which is eight times as long as the sub-frame period. This achieves switching of the filter coefficient which is changed smoothly with a higher follow-up speed, while suppressing level changes otherwise caused by frequent gain switching. The result is improved characteristics of a post filter used for spectral shaping of a decoded signal supplied from the signal decoder and more effective post-filter processing.

Abstract: This invention relates to an injection unit for
an injection molding machine, which is free of inconvenience
such as a reduction in plasticating ability
and clogging of a powdery filler upon molding a
powdery-filler-added resin, can prevent cutting of long
fibers upon molding a long-fiber-filled resin, can also
be applied to feed resins which give off evaporated
gas, can be used for a wide variety of resins, and can
be constructed with a substantially-reduced machine
length. The injection unit is therefore constructed of
a plasticating tank (2) and an injection cylinder (12).
The plasticating tank (2) has a built-in mixing rod (4)
with numerous fins (4a) arranged extending from the
mixing rod, whereby a feed resin is plasticated by
rotation of the mixing rod (4). The injection cylinder
(12) is connected with the plasticating tank (2) and
has a built-in injection plunger (13), whereby a molten
resin (10) fed from the plasticating tank (2) is injected
into a mold by the injection plunger (13). The
injection unit according to this invention is useful
especially upon plasticating a feed resin, such as a
powdery-filler-added resin or a long-fiber-filled
resin, and injecting the thus-plasticated feed resin
into a mold.

Abstract: A transaction log stored in a first memory (55) is posted to one of
two separate log areas (60, 65), selectively, on a storage system (10) having a
plurality of storage media (12) such as disk drives. Posting occurs to a "disk
log" area (60) when a page-full status of the first memory (55) transaction log is
detected. Alternatively, when a posting request occurs before a page-full status
of the transaction log has been detected, then posting occurs immediately to a
least busy disk of a "staging log" area (65). Posting occurs to the least busy
disk of the "staging log" area by circumventing normal storage system data
management and redundancy techniques such that data in the staging log area is
not kept redundantly on the storage media. Rather redundancy is maintained by
the fact that the transaction log remains with the first memory in addition to
being copied to the staging log area. The staging log area includes reserved
space on each of the plurality of storage media and is divided into logically
separate portions (70, 75, 80, 85, 90, 95, 100, 105) on each of the storage
media (12). This prohibits two consecutive "force" postings from overwriting the
same portion of the reserved area, regardless of which disk is the least busy.
Finally, sequence numbers (120) and disk set numbers (125) are associated with
data records (110) that are posted to the disk log areas (60, 65) for enabling
recovery of the transaction log data from the disk log areas.

Abstract: A system and method for enforcing configuration
parameters and detecting tampering of configuration
files used by a software application. An enforced
configuration packet (ECP) file generator (110)
generates an enforced configuration packet (ECP) file
(106) from a configuration parameter description file
(108) containing a set of configuration parameters (〈ID,
VALUE〉). The ECP file (106) includes a set of enforced
configuration packets (〈ID, VALUE, FINGERPRINT〉), which
each include one of the configuration parameters from
the ECP description file (108) and a corresponding
configuration parameter fingerprint (〈FINGERPRINT〉)
unique to that particular configuration parameter. At
startup of the software application (102), an ECP file
reader (104) validates the ECP file (106) and each of
the enforced configuration packets contained in the ECP
file. Validation is achieved by regenerating the
configuration parameter fingerprint of each
configuration parameter and comparing the regenerated
fingerprint to the fingerprint contained in the enforced
configuration packet. If any of the fingerprints in the
enforced configuration packets do not match their
regenerated fingerprint, the ECP file reader (104)
indicates that the configuration parameter fingerprint
is not valid. If all of the configuration parameter
fingerprints match up to their regenerated fingerprints,
and the ECP file (106) itself is determined to be valid,
the configuration parameters encoded in the ECP file
(106) are used by the software application (102) to set
up its configuration.
