Abstract: Units of traffic are routed between nodes in a network on corresponding sets of
trunks, such that the traffic is balanced between disjoint paths. A restoration process for the
traffic is implemented using service layer or transport layer switching. In a first
embodiment, first and second nodes are connected by first and second sets of trunks, with
each of the trunks in a given set of trunks supporting a designated portion of a given one
of the units of traffic. The units of traffic are then routed such that a first half of a given one
of the units of traffic is routed on a first one of the trunks in a given one of the sets of
trunks, and a second half of the given unit is routed on a second one of the trunks in the
given set of trunks. In other embodiments, the first and second nodes are connected by first
and second sets of trunks so as to form a four-trunk ring, with each of the first and second
sets of trunks including a primary trunk and a backup trunk. A given one of the units of
traffic is then routed on either an upper or lower portion of the ring. The four trunk ring
may be in the form of an IP/optical hybrid ring, in which case the restoration process is
implemented using service layer switching, or a SONET/optical ring, in which case the
restoration process is implemented using transport layer switching.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for providing remote control of the output power level of
an amplifier. The method uses pulse width or pulse density modulated signal
proportional to the power level of the amplifier. This signal is detected and filtered to
provide a control voltage to the apparatus mentioned below. The apparatus includes an
amplifier, and a comparator having a first input coupled to an output terminal of the
amplifier, a second input coupled to a control signal, and an output terminal coupled to
an input terminal of the amplifier. The amplifier and comparator operate to form a
feedback loop which functions to equalize the voltage level of an output signal present
at the output terminal of the amplifier to the voltage level of the control signal. The
equalization of the voltage level of the output signal of the amplifier to the voltage level
of the control signal is effected by adjusting the drain current flowing through the
amplifier. Accordingly, by varying the voltage level of the control signal, the power level
of the output signal of the amplifier can be varied.

Abstract: A grommet (10) is provided with a circular channel (15) around its
outer surface serving to hold a car's body panel (2), thereby forming a
circular channel base (15a) and first and second channel walls (15b, 15c)
extending outwardly therefrom. The circular channel (15) also forms
corresponding first and second circular edges (20, 21) at respective
outermost portions of the first and second channel walls (15b, 15c).
Further, the first circular edge (20) extends more outwardly than the second
circular edge (21) in a diametrical direction of the grommet (10), and has a
flat edge (20a) in the same direction so as to hold the car's body panel (2).
The first and second walls (15b, 15c) are brought closer as they rise from
the channel base (15a), such that the first circular edge (20) laps over the
second circular edge (21) in a longitudinal direction of the grommet (10).
Further, the portion of first channel wall (15b) facing the second circular
edge (21) is grooved so as to form a circular groove (22) along the second
circular edge (21) and opened towards the channel (15), whereby the
minimum distance between the first and second channel walls (15b, 15c)
can be set to be above a predetermined value. When the outwardly
narrowing channel in the grommet (10) has such a configuration, the dies
used for molding such a grommet (10) can be made highly durable.

Abstract: A method, apparatus and computer program for applying a predetermined transmission process to the transmission of IP packets of a particular Internet Protocol (IP) flow in an IP network. The invention is implemented by defining in a host, such as a wireless terminal, a Quality of Service (QoS) management protocol between an IP session management protocol of the host and each of an IP layer and a link layer of the host, and defining in another apparatus, such as a wireless access point, a QoS management protocol between the QoS management protocol of the host and each of an IP layer and a link layer of the wireless access point. The wireless access point communicates with the wireless terminal via a link and allows the wireless terminal to communicate with the IP network. IP session information is configured in the wireless terminal and the wireless access point in each of the IP and link layers based on IP session management information from the IP session management protocol of the wireless terminal. Based on the defined configuration, an IP flow between the wireless terminal and the wireless access point is identified as a particular IP flow. Thereafter, a predetermined transmission process can be applied to the transmission of IP packets of the identified IP flow.

Abstract: Use of helper probes in dipstick assays is described. In a dipstick assay to test for the presence of a target nucleic acid in a sample solution, the sample solution is contacted with the contact end of the dipstick to cause the sample solution to move by capillary action to a capture zone of the dipstick at which target nucleic acid is captured. The target nucleic acid may be captured at the capture zone by a capture probe capable of hybridising to the target nucleic acid. A labelled detection probe capable of hybridising to the target nucleic acid may be used to detect the target nucleic acid at the capture zone. A helper probe may be used to enhance the binding of the capture and/or detection probe to the target nucleic acid, thereby improving the sensitivity of target nucleic acid detection. Dipsticks and kits are also described.

Abstract: The system includes a transmitter for generating a signal and a cyclic prefix, wherein the transmitter suppresses a plurality of sub-symbols of the signal to produce a partial response signal. A portion of the partial response signal is dropped and the resulting truncated signal is used to modulate a carrier signal. The carrier signal is transmitted to the receiver through a noisy channel. The receiver receives a noisy signal and recovers the carrier signal and, hence, the partial response signal from the noisy signal. The method includes selecting a cyclic convolver having predefined values, applying the cyclic convolver to a signal to produce a partial response signal, dropping a plurality of sub-symbols of the partial response signal, appending a cyclic prefix at a leading edge of the truncated partial response signal, and transforming the truncated partial response signal with the cyclic prefix to produce a time base signal that is used to generate a modulated carrier signal that is ready for transmission.

Abstract: In consumer devices, like digital television sets (610) or set-top boxes, there can be a problem with a sudden load increase caused by for example a scene change and user focus. During such a load increase, the quality of service of the application having the user focus will decrease until the device detects the load increase. The device can reallocate resources to the application (608) having the user focus after which the quality of service will increase again towards its previous level. However, the user may have noticed the quality decrease. In order to prevent this noticeable decrease of quality in overload situations, a method an a system (606) is provided that guarantees a worst-case budget to the application having user focus and conditionally guarantees a budget surplus to an application not having the user focus (610). The latter application can then use that budget surplus to operate at a higher quality of service level.
