Abstract: Methods, devices and systems for providing content providers with a secure way to
multicast their data flows only to legitimate end users. By making a specific decision for each
potentially legitimate end user requesting a specific data flow, differing subscriber profiles may
be taken into account. Furthermore, end to end encryption is avoided by having a switch and/or
router control the specific data flow to a specific end user. Each end user sends a request DTU to
the switch and/or router asking for permission to join a multicast group. The switch and/or
router extracts identification data from the request data transmission unit (DTU) and determines
whether the requesting end user is cleared for the requested specific data flow. This
determination may be made by sending a query DTU containing the identification data to a
policy server which checks the identification data against preprogrammed criteria in its
databases. The policy server then sends a response DTU to the switch and/or router confirming
or denying the authenticity or legitimacy of the request based on the identification data. In the
meantime, after the switch and/or router sends the query DTU to the policy server, the switch
and/or router allows the specific requested data flow to proceed to the requesting end user. If,
based on the response from the policy server, the request is de termined to not be legitimate or
authentic, the specific data flow is terminated. If the request is legitimate or authentic, then the
data flow is allowed to flow uninterrupted by the switch and/or router.

Abstract: To provide a drawing device with which drawing speed can be increased without price increase. A drawing device is established as a GPU on an entertainment device to perform the drawing to a frame buffer in terms of different interleaved patterns. Each interleaved pattern is specified by a combination of pixel segments in the frame buffer. The GPU identifies the shape of a figure to be drawn and selects the interleaved pattern that fits for the selected shape of the figure. The pixel segments specified in the frame buffer are not overlapped with other pixel segments in the same interleaved pattern regardless of which interleaved pattern is selected.

Abstract: A spread code to be allocated to transmission data
is changed at a previous transmitting time and a next
transmission time. For example, at transmission of the
first packet (first transmission), symbols "1" to "4"
are spread by spread code #0, while at transmission of
the second packet (retransmission), symbols "1" to "4"
are spread by spread code #1. As a result, since despread
signals of the respective symbols obtained by a plurality
of reception times on a receiver side are synthesized,
it is possible to eliminate a reception symbol having
an extremely small reception level, so that reception
quality can be improved.

Abstract: A curable film-forming composition is provided that on curing produces a coating, comprising in a medium (i) 10 to 90 percent by weight based on the total weight of resin solids in the film-forming composition of a crosslinking agent; (ii) 10 to 90 percent by weight based on the total weight of resin solids in the film-forming composition of a polymer containing a plurality of functional groups reactive with the crosslinking agent; and (iii) 20 to 85 percent by volume based on the total volume of the film-forming composition of particles having a mean particle size less than 100 nm. The particles further have an index of refraction sufficiently similar to that of the polymer of (ii) to minimize haze, and have an affinity for the medium sufficient to keep the particles suspended therein. The affinity of the particles for the medium is greater than the affinity of the particles for each other, thereby preventing agglomeration of the particles within the medium. The film-forming compositions exhibit improved scratch (mar) resistance compared to compositions of the prior art, as well as improved sag resistance when compared to similar coating compositions prepared without the particles. A multi-component composite coating composition is also provided. The coating composition comprises a pigmented film-forming composition serving as a base coat and a clear film-forming composition serving as a transparent topcoat over the base coat. The transparent topcoat, or clear coat, is derived from the curable film-forming composition described above.

Abstract: The invention concerns a method for making an article (1) comprising at least
a sheet melamine (2, 2') foam piece with thickness sufficiently thin to
exhibit flexibility and no flexural elasticity, which consists in: cutting
by peeling a melamine foam block (40) into a strip with thickness sufficiently
thin to exhibit flexibility and no flexural elasticity, and in making the article
(1) using at least one sheet melamine foam piece derived from said strip. An article
obtained by the inventive method can be used for many applications, in particular,
in for surface cleaning, where it can advantageously be substituted for a standard
double-faced sponge substantially identically. Such an article exhibits,
when used as a towelette, flexibility and no flexural elasticity which makes
it easy to use. Moreover, it is more hygienic than a double-faced sponge since
it is disposable.

Abstract: The present invention provides a cochlear stimulation system and method for capturing and translating fine time structure ("FTS") in incoming sounds and delivering this information spatially to the cochlea. The system comprises a FTS estimator/analyzer and a current navigator. An embodiment of the method comprises analyzing the incoming sounds within a time frequency band, extracting the slowly varying frequency components and estimating the FTS to obtain a more precise dominant FTS component within a frequency band. After adding the fine structure to the carrier to identify a precise dominant FTS component in each analysis frequency band (or stimulation channel), a stimulation current may be "steered" or directed, using the concept of virtual electrodes, to the precise spatial location (place) on the cochlea that corresponds to the dominant FTS component. This process is simultaneously repeated for each stimulation channel and each FTS component.
