Abstract: A small telephone system provides telecommunications services for personal wireless telephone sets over an area which is divided into service cells. Each of the cells is defined by reception characteristics of a plurality of radio base stations within the cell. During a call progress, if the wireless telephone set is mobile, a radio link with the set is handed off from one cell to another as the wireless telephone set moves along. The telephone system includes a service controller and a port being wireline connected between each radio base station and the service controller. The service controller selects radio base stations for setting up radio links with wireless sets of a calling or called persons, and responds to received signal strengths for handing a radio link from radio base station to radio base station, to maintain the quality of the radio link with an active mobile wireless telephone set.

Abstract: The possibility of passing off apparent "good" higher level digital signals that may include corrupted or failed lower level digital signals because of inter-ring grooming of the lower level digital signals from a bidirectional line-switched ring to a path-switched ring and vice versa which employ first and second shared nodes is minimized by dual feeding communications circuits from the bidirectional line-switched ring to the path-switched ring and vice versa via the shared nodes. An inter-ring groomed communications circuit is provisioned from a secondary ring node in the line-switched ring of one of the shared nodes (secondary communications circuit) to be supplied to a primary ring node in the other of the shared nodes of the line-switched ring. A replica of the secondary communications circuit is demultiplexed to obtain the lower level digital signals, which are evaluated on a pair-wise basis with corresponding lower level digital signals from the primary ring node. The least corrupted of the evaluated lower level signals are selected to be combined into a new primary communications circuit which is to be inserted in the line-switched transmission path. An inter-ring groomed communications circuit is provisioned from a secondary ring node of one of the shared nodes in the path-switched ring to be supplied to a primary ring node in the other shared node of the path-switched ring. The secondary communications circuit is demultiplexed to obtain the lower level signals which are evaluated on a pair-wise basis with lower level signals from a corresponding primary communications circuit to determine which of the lower level signals are least corrupted. The selected least corrupted lower level signals are combined into a new primary communications circuit which is then dual fed in the path-switched ring primary ring node.

Abstract: A computer network in which resources are dynamically located through the use of LOCATE requests includes multiple cache server nodes, network nodes which have an additional obligation to build and maintain large caches of directory entries. Cache server nodes play a key role in the LOCATE process and can prevent redundant network-wide broadcasts of LOCATE requests. Where an origin cache server node receives a request from a served node, the cache server node searches its local directories first, then forwards the request to alternate cache server nodes if necessary. If the necessary information isn't found locally or in alternate cache server nodes, the LOCATE request is then broadcast to all network nodes in the network. If the broadcast results are negative, the request is forwarded to selected gateway nodes to permit the search to continue in adjacent networks.

Abstract: A box is formed of a blank of sheet material wherein a filler is sandwiched between an inner liner and an outer liner. A pair of V-grooves is formed parallel to each edge and another V-groove is formed parallel to the pair of grooves on the side away from the edge. The V-grooves of the pair of V-grooves have center lines spaced apart a distance of substantially two thicknesses of the sheet material. The blank is folded upwards at the single V-groove, and then is folded back at the pair of V-grooves to produce successive 90-degree folds. The outer liner extends continuously over the outer side, top edge, and inner side of the resulting doublethickness wall. A similar technique can produce a box with multiple-thickness walls.

Abstract: On transferring a tributary unit (TU) from an input frame of an input signal (10) onto an output frame of an output signal (11), a recognition circuit (14) recognizes the TU of the input frame and produces not only a location signal representative of a location of the TU in the input frame but also a sort signal representative of a sort of the TU in the input frame. A threshold determining circuit (32) determines an optimum stuff threshold value (33) in response to the sort signal to produce the optimum stuff threshold value. A write controller (15) controls writing of the TU of the input frame in a memory (12) in response to the location signal by supplying a write address signal (17) to the memory. A read controller (18) controls reading of the TU out of the memory in response to a stuff request signal (19) by supplying a read address signal (23) to the memory. A stuff execution judgement circuit (25) judges whether or not a stuff operation should be executed by comparing a phase difference between the write address signal and the read address signal with the optimum stuff threshold value. The stuff execution judgement circuit produces the stuff request signal when the stuff execution judgement circuit judges that the stuff operation should be executed. An output transmission signal producing circuit (29, 30) produces the output signal including the TU in the output frame.
