Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé et un dispositif permettant de prévenir la fraude dans des appels de service spécial effectués depuis un point d'origine international vers un point de terminaison intérieur, par l'intermédiaire d'un système de télécommunications longue distance. Selon ce système et ce procédé, une base de données de filtrage d'appels internationaux est ajoutée à une plate-forme de réseau de services intégrés (ISN). Les dossiers de la base de données de filtrage d'appels internationaux sont codés par le code de pays et contiennent un champ destiné aux zones de terminaison bloquées. Lorsqu'un appel international est effectué, le dossier correspondant au point d'origine international est récupéré à partir de la base de données de filtrage d'appels internationaux. Ce dossier est vérifié de sorte à déterminer si des zones de terminaison sont indiquées dans le champ d'échanges bloqués. S'il n'y a pas de zones de terminaison indiquées dans ce champ, le traitement de l'appel continue. Si des zones de terminaison sont indiquées dans le champ d'échanges bloqués, ces zones de terminaison sont vérifiées en fonction du point de terminaison de l'appel. Si le point de terminaison de l'appel se situe à l'intérieur de la zone de terminaison, l'appel est bloqué.

Abstract: A catalyst for use in the formation of polypropylene is disclosed that comprises a titanium compound having at least one titanium-halogen bond, supported on an activated, amorphous magnesium dihalide support that is essentially free of alkoxy functionality, with a titanium metal content of no more than about 2 wt %, based on the weight of the support, and an internal donor component. This catalyst is made by a: forming a combination of titanium tetrachloride, magnesium-containing compound that can be converted to magnesium dihalide and internal electron donor in an aromatic hydrocarbon solvent and bringing that combination to elevated temperature to form an intermediate product; washing the intermediate product with an aromatic hydrocarbon solvent at elevated temperature to produce a washed product and a supernatant followed by decantation of the supernatant therefrom; treating the washed product with titanium tetrachloride in an aromatic hydrocarbon solvent to form a treated product and a supernatant followed by heating of the treated product and supernatant, decantation of the supernatant therefrom, and washing of the treated product with an aromatic hydrocarbon solvent at elevated temperature; decantation of the supernatant therefrom, and washing of the treated product with an aromatic hydrocarbon solvent preferably at least one or two more times; and addition of an aliphatic hydrocarbon solvent to the treated product with decantation of the solvent therefrom to form a washed product which can be used as a propylene polymerization catalyst. If desired, after the formation of the washed product resulting from addition of the aliphatic hydrocarbon solvent, mineral oil can be added to the washed product to form a slurry containing the final catalyst.

Abstract: A system and method for processing digital video. The invention allows for manual level and gain adjustment of the video similar to that used in a histogram based automatic level and gain control system using a cumulative distribution function. Level changes are made by an offset to the existing automatic level and gain. Level changes are first made by applying an offset L and the midscale gray intensity bin on the histogram is located. Gain changes are made by changing the relative gain multiplier (G) which acts on the automatic level and gain algorithm causing the gain to change equally about midscale gray (i.e., midscale gray is maintained). In accordance with the invention, as part of the histogram based manual level and gain algorithm, the local gain is clipped to a predetermined maximum in order to prevent an overly noisy picture when too much gain is applied. The inventive method determines how to prevent a shift in the level when increasing the gain (i.e., G>1) even when clipping is applied. An anti-saturation algorithm is also applied to prevent saturation from affecting the video too drastically. In order to provide the ability to change the picture from black to white an offset is required under low gain. Lastly, the inventive method allows for fine and coarse adjustments and includes histogram equalization, polarity reversal and gamma correction.
