Filed: 1999-07-15
Abstract: A method and system are described for defining a user's access to one or more features of an application. One or more "attributes" are assigned to users of a computer system and stored in a data table. Each attribute has a name which designates the feature to which access is being defined, (e.g, the ability to access data within the database), and a value defining the limits of access. Attributes may be assigned in groups to eliminate the burden of preparing attribute assignments one by one for each user. When an application is run, the attributes are retrieved and enforced such that the user's access to the features of the application is defined in accordance with the retrieved attributes.

Title: Computer based produce transaction system
Inventor: KIM JEOM DOO
IPC: G06Q50/00
Filed: 2000-12-04
Abstract: A method for preventing environmental contamination by providing for direct transactions of products of agricultural, livestock, fishery and forestry fields is disclosed. Data concerning additives used in the production of agricultural, livestock, fishery and forestry fields, and data relating to production backgrounds and distribution of primary and secondary industries, may be searched by means of a registration operation S2000 as an inputting means, an output operation (S3000, Fig 3b) as an outputting means and other operations (S4000, Fig 3c) of a database sewer. The registration operation S2000 includes registering basic data S2100 and business data S2200. The output operation (S3000) includes a business output table (S3100) and an administration output table (S3200). Thus, without the consumers entering the producers region and vice versa, products can be transacted directly based on the above-mentioned data at a neutral area of the Internet from the database server. This helps exclude intermediate sellers profit margins. In this manner, the procurement of environmentally clean products is promoted, whilst the procurement of environmentally damaging products can be inhibited, and so the contamination of the environment can be prevented, or at least reduced.

IPC: H04N1/56
Filed: 2000-12-08
Abstract: A scanner performs an initial coarse data acquisition scan (21) of a document to determine the presence of colour pixels therein. Pixel saturation information is extracted from the data to allow a mean saturation value (Sat) to be calculated for the document. If the mean value is greater than a predetermined threshold value (S) colour scanning mode is selected (24,25). Otherwise the scanner is set to black and white scanning mode (26). The scanner then proceeds with the detailed scan of the document in the selected mode (27).

Title: A multi-mode, multi-tasking processor with reduction in context preservation and restoration to save processing time
Inventor: WHITTON ROBERT ALLAN
IPC: G06F9/30
Filed: 2001-02-20
Abstract: A processor which is switchable between a first execution mode (such as a scalar mode) and a second execution mode (such as a VLIW mode) is disclosed. The processor has a first processor context when in the first execution mode and a second processor context, different from the first processor context, when in the second execution mode. The processor generates an exception when the processor attempts to change from one execution mode to the other. When the processor switches to a thread of execution which is in the first execution mode, or when the processor switches to a thread of execution which was the last thread to be in the second execution mode, only the first processor context is preserved. The processor may be arranged such that the number of threads that may be in the second execution mode at any one time is less than the total number of threads that may be active on the processor at any one time.

Title: Lateral semiconductor device
Inventor: AMARATUNGA GEHAN ANIL JOSEPH
IPC: H01L29/06
Filed: 2001-05-11
Abstract: A lateral Silicon-on-Insulator transistor 10 for high voltage applications. The SOI layer 15 has p+ source region 12 and n+ drain region 13. A drift region 14 is subdivided into uniformly doped p and n sub-regions 14', 14'', extending laterally, forming a pn junction at the boundary which lies at an acute angle to a perpendicular drawn between the source and drain regions, giving trapezoidal/triangular sub-regions. When a reverse bias voltage is applied across the semiconductor layer 15, the n-type drift region 14'' has an excess of charge relative to the p-type drift region 14' which varies linearly across the drift region 14, increasing towards the drain region 13. Greater uniformity of the electric field distribution is achieved, with elimination of peaks. A MOSFET embodiment is described (figs 11, 12) having an extended gate, which forms a weak accumulation at the surface of the drift layer, reducing the resistance along the current path.

Title: Reduced traffic loading of a downlink through datagram prediction
Inventor: BARRETT STEPHEN JOHN
IPC: G06F17/30
Filed: 2001-05-25
Abstract: In applications requiring a first resource for uplink communications and a second resource for downlink communications (e.g. for downloading of files), it is common for the traffic loading on the downlink to be greater than traffic loading on the uplink, i.e. asymmetry exists. Consequently there is a need for more resources to support the downlink communications. Upon receiving a datagram on the downlink, the receiver checks for a match within cached sequences of previously received datagrams. If a match occurs, the receiver transmits on the uplink the next expected datagram in the sequence to the source of the datagrams. The source compares the expected datagram with the next datagram for transmission and either sends a confirmation or, if different, transmits the datagram. Alternatively the difference between the expected and next datagram is transmitted. The process is repeated until the download is complete. Application is to a Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS) as shown in figure 1.
