Patent EP-1176491-A3 (EP)
Inventor: UEDA SATORU
IPC: G06Q50/00
Filed: 2001-05-24
Abstract: A software program providing system in which a predetermined limitation
can be established for its access, thus allowing charge of a fee corresponding to the
amount of access to the software program. By using a software program storage
medium storing an individual identification code along with the provided software
program, a service provider managing a supplemental pay function of the software
program uses such individual identification code as a search key for storing user's
individual information, information on software access limitation range and
information on the condition of access to the software program. By doing so, the
individual identification code can be read out form the software program storage
medium installed in a user terminal and then, based on such information on the range
of access limitation and information on the condition of access to the software
program, the user terminal is authorized to access the software program.

Abstract: In order to allow a host computer to specify an operable logical unit, a storage system responds extended LU information including at least connection portion numbers, target IDs and logical unit numbers according to an inquiry made from the host computer. In the present invention, an external storage system adds extended LU numbers used in coupling as responses to Inquiry commands to specified logical units. 
     Owing to such addition, the host computer is capable of collecting responses of Inquiry commands to special device files of all storage systems recognized by the host computer. It is thus possible to obtain a list 111 of extended LU numbers corresponding to all logical units recognized by the host computer. Since such an external storage system using LUN security is capable of effecting coupling operation only on logical units recognized by the host computer, security is enhanced.

Abstract: A fluidized particulate solids contacting process for reducing
regenerator flue gas NOx emissions and/or permitting operating with an
increased equilibrium solids vanadium level, which process may be an FCC
process or a fluidized particulate solid hydrocarbon treating process, wherein
spent FCC catalyst or other spent solid is in a regenerator with an oxygen-containing

which include a combination of at least a regeneration temperature and an
oxygen level in the regeneration gas which is effective to burn off the spent
solid a majority of carbonaceous deposits thereon, while substantially
preventing the formation of NOx, and thereby produce a regenerated solid
having a carbon level reduced from that of the spent solid and a flue gas;
maintaining the regenerated solid in a fluidized state with a fluidizing media
that substantially prevents any further oxidation or regeneration; and returning

Abstract: An injection moulded, plastics material cap 1 for a screw top bottle has a top and a skirt with an anti-tamper band 2 connected to the skirt at a tear-off line by links 3. On the inside of the top of the cap, a depending annular ridge 10 is provided. Its inside diameter is such that it abuts and seals on the outside diameter of the distal end of neck of the bottle. Also on the inside of the cap, inside the ridge 10, is moulded, a forked feature having an inner limb 12 which extends generally downwards with an outwards bias, and an outer limb 13 which extends generally outwards with downwards bias. The inner limb is dimensioned to fit inside the mouth at the neck of the bottle, sealingly engaging it, whilst the outer limb is dimensioned to abut the end of the neck, also sealingly engaging it when the cap is screwed tight. On the inside of the anti-tamper band, upwardly and inwardly extending tongues 21 are provided. Adjacent ones of these are interconnected by webs 20 in the form of invert V folds. The folds extend up and out (radially) from the tongues. The latter have ribs 22 on their outer faces. Above the proximal ends of the tongues, a ridge 23 is provided around the inside of the band, at a position such that the ribs abut it when the tongues are pushed up, as on screwing of the cap onto the bottle. The combined action of the folded webs 20 and the resilience of the tongues 21 themselves causes them to spring inwards when pushed outwards during fitting of the cap to the bottle. The abutment of the ribs 22 against the ridge 23 limits the outwards movement of the tongues.

Abstract: Systems and methods for encoding and decoding document images are disclosed.
Document images are segmented into multiple layers according to a mask. The multiple
layers are non-binary. The respective layers can then be processed and compressed
separately in order to achieve better compression of the document image overall. A mask
is generated from a document image. The mask is generated so as to reduce an estimate
of compression for the combined size of the mask and multiple layers of the document
image. The mask is then employed to segment the document image into the multiple
layers. The mask determines or allocates pixels of the document image into respective
layers. The mask and the multiple layers are processed and encoded separately so as to
improve compression of the document image overall and to improve the speed of so
doing. The multiple layers are non-binary images and can, for example, comprise a
foreground image and a background image.

Abstract: Disclosed is a fuel cut control apparatus for an internal combustion engine wherein provisions are made to avoid the occurrence of misfire due to a drop in intake air amount and also prevent impairment of the vehicle deceleration feeling when control is performed to prohibit fuel cut during deceleration in order to prevent catalyst deterioration in a high-temperature, lean atmosphere. When allowing fuel injection by prohibiting deceleration fuel cut in order to prevent catalyst deterioration, a minimum intake air amount necessary for combustion is secured by controlling, for example, an idle speed control valve (36), to ensure the prevention of the occurrence of misfire. Further, in a driving condition that tends to impair the deceleration feeling and give the driver an unnatural feel, that is, in a driving condition under which the decelerating force of the internal combustion engine (engine braking) makes an appreciable contribution to vehicle deceleration, the fuel cut prohibition for the prevention of catalyst deterioration is not executed. For example, when the vehicle speed is slow, aerodynamic drag due to wind is small and the driving condition is such that the engine braking makes an appreciable contribution to vehicle deceleration; therefore, when the vehicle speed is below a predetermined value, the fuel cut prohibition for the prevention of catalyst deterioration is aborted, and fuel cut is executed (303, 304) to prevent the impairment of the deceleration feeling.
