Abstract: Upon editing video data recorded as an MPEG
program stream, the process is done for each reference
picture (for three frames). That is, information of
the end of a stream to be left is input (S1), a
reference picture in a GOP, which corresponds to the
information of the end, is determined (S2), and a
picture immediately before the determined reference
picture is judged as the last picture of the stream to
be left (S3).

Abstract: A method to automatically vary the compression of images by ranking images within clusters based upon image emphasis. The ranking process computes one or more quantities related to one or more features in each image. The features can include the content of images. The invention processes the quantities with a reasoning algorithm that is trained based on opinions of one or more human observers. The invention applies the quantities to the images to produce the ranking and variably compresses the images depending upon the ranking. The images having a low ranking and are compressed more than images that have a high ranking.

Abstract: A fiberoptic cable coil tray and coil carrier package comprises a
carrier to which the fiberoptic coil is attached and which is inserted into the tray, and
a lid for the tray. A plurality of fiberoptic coil retainers in the form of notches or
clips are formed on the coil carrier to provide a stable, self-contained and restrained
fiberoptic coil which remains properly seated in the package during handling and
storage. The coil carrier provides increased ease of handling of the fiberoptic coil
by restraining individual fiberoptic coils with the plurality of coil retainers which are
positioned along the length of the fiberoptic cable, such that a selected length of the
fiberoptic cable can be removed from the carrier without the remaining coils
springing out therefrom. The carrier also secures each end of the fiberoptic cable,
such that either end can be removed separately while the remainder of the fiberoptic
coils remain secured to the carrier.

Abstract: In transmission systems of the point-multipoint type (PMP) a
master station and one or more terminal stations are defined;
a downstream channel from the master station towards the
terminal stations and an upstream channel from the terminal
stations to the master station are also defined. 
     The system can be optimised in different ways for different
applications. An example can be the fixed packet or variable
packet optimisation; another example can be the optimisation
for the operational flexibility or for the efficiency. 
     These optimisations give origin to different systems and
different standards, incompatible among them, with different
frame structures. 
     The present invention solves the problem of implementing a
multi-standard terminal, that is, terminal capable to
automatically adjust to any frame structure in a limited set
of different structures, optimised in a different way. 
     The master station, which results of course being specialized
to operate in accordance with a specific operation method,
imposes said operation method and the terminal stations
slaved to the same, conform to them, recognizing the
operation mode from the frame preamble. 
     The frame preamble, periodically transmitted from the master
station to the terminal stations, according to the present
invention is differentiated in different sequences, each one
identifying a different operation mode.

Abstract: Method, control system and computer-readable medium are respectively
provided for determining angular crankshaft position prior to a cranking event
of an internal combustion engine. Upon issuance of an engine shutdown
command, the method allows determining an initial crankshaft position based
on a crankshaft position sensor (12). The method further allows providing a
rulebase (24) for relating angular travel of a rotor in an accessory device (e.g.,
16) to crankshaft angular travel. Angular travel of the rotor in the accessory
device is sensed (e.g., 18) since issuance of the engine shutdown command until
the engine reaches a resting position. The rulebase (24) is accessed to relate the
value of the angular travel of the rotor in the accessory device to crankshaft
angular travel and provide an incremental crankshaft angular travel relative to
the initial crankshaft position at engine shutdown. Crankshaft position is
calculated (e.g., 26) at the resting position based upon the initial crankshaft
position plus the incremental crankshaft angular travel based on the angular
travel of the rotor in the accessory device. The calculated crankshaft position
corresponding to the resting position is stored (e.g., 28). Upon issuance of an
engine re-start command, the stored crankshaft position corresponding to the
resting position is retrieved (e.g., 14) to provide quick and accurate engine
control regardless of any dead-band in the crankshaft position sensor during low
engine speeds.
