Abstract: The method involves assigning a mark representing its degree of affliction of a place to each anomaly at a moment of assessment. The marks are weighed by coefficients of importance to obtain weighed marks. A quality index is established based on the weighed marks. A corrective action is taken on the place if the index exceeds a preset range of corresponding values, representing an acceptable environmental quality. The coefficient of importance is a chosen number that is greater if an environmental impact perceived from a considered potential anomaly is greater. An independent claim is also included for a system for implementing a method of optimization of environmental quality of a place likely to be afflicted by various potential environmental anomalies.

speed-up of PDP context establishment and reduction of call
connection time. At the time of the PDP context establishment,
it is made possible to carry out bearer setting between an MS
and an SGSN and bearer setting between the SGSN and a GGSN
independently from each other. The SGSN can select a flexible
bearer setting procedure based upon traffic data and the like

Abstract: The CPU (12) processes display area acquisition requests from a plurality of processing units (R1-Rn) according to a display management program. The display management program decides whether use of the display area is allowed to each processing unit, considering the relationship of the plurality of display areas requested from each processing unit (R1-Rn). Each processing unit (R1-Rn) executes display processing for the display area for which use is allowed. In this way, whether use is allowed is notified from the display management program to each processing unit (R1-Rn) after each processing unit (R1-Rn) sends the display area acquisition request. As a consequence, display in a plurality of areas by each processing unit (R1-Rn) can be controlled appropriately.

Abstract: It is an object to provide an automatic banding
packing machine (70) capable of easily removing the ring
of a band (B) with a simple structure when idle banding
is carried out. When the rear end side of a band is to
be pulled back by band pull-back means (84), an amount

decided that idle banding of the band is carried out
when a result of the detection is greater than a preset
length and the band is wound around a slide table (34).
Thereafter, the rotation of a cam shaft (41) is
temporarily stopped based on a signal, whereby the
timing of the pressing to be carried out by a middle
presser member (6), which is operated after melting the
superposing portion of the band by means of a heater

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé et un système d'identification d'accès non autorisés à un service de réseau de données par un noeud particulier dans un réseau de données. La console de gestion de réseau (NMC) communique périodiquement avec un agent pour établir une liste d'utilisateurs du noeud de service. Un agent est installé sur le noeud de service destiné à surveiller tous les accès du réseau au service. La configuration de l'agent pour surveiller tous les accès au noeud de service, par SNMP ou par un protocole semblable, permet à l'agent de mettre à jour une liste de tous les accès à ce noeud de réseau. Cette liste est stockée de manière interne par l'agent et périodiquement demandée par la NMC. Les informations d'accès stockées par l'agent sont périodiquement récupérées par la NMC pour tous les noeuds surveillés, puis comparées à la liste d'autorisation pour le noeud. Si des accès non autorisés sont détectés, ils sont identifiés par la NMC. Ces accès non utorisés peuvent être indiqués par l'entité appropriée d'un certain nombre de manières, par exemple par radio-messagerie, par courrier électronique ou par rapport, visualisables par l'intermédiaire de la NMC.
