Title: Procede et systeme permettant la facturation des applications en fonction des transmissions
Inventor: MEHTA SAMIR NARENDRA
IPC: G06Q20/38
Filed: 2002-02-26
Abstract: L'invention concerne des procédés et des systèmes informatiques et réseau permettant une facturation en fonction du mode de transmission. Dans un exemple de réalisation, un « système de facturation par paquets » ('PBBS' : Packet-Based Billing System) permet à des fournisseurs d'applications tels que les services d'acheminement et les fournisseurs de contenus, d'établir des factures à l'intention des abonnés pour l'utilisation d'un contenu sur des dispositifs d'abonnés mobiles tels que des dispositifs sans fil, la facture étant établie par application et par utilisateur, et en fonction du taux d'utilisation. Dans certaines formes de réalisation, l'invention peut également permettre de facturer l'utilisation de contenus selon un mode par application et par utilisateur pour les abonnés de systèmes câblés, au moyen des mêmes techniques. En exploitation, le système PBBS produit un contenu modifié en insérant un code de facturation et de traçage dans le contenu envoyé à un dispositif demandeur. Lors de l'exécution de ce contenu modifié, la quantité de données envoyées et reçues entre le contenu et un réseau est détectée et ces données sont enregistrées auprès d'un serveur mandataire/de facturation conformément à des règles commerciales déterminant l'intervalle/ la fréquence d'enregistrement de ces données. Le serveur mandataire/ de facturation mémorise les données de facturation brutes et un programme de comptabilité récupère ces données afin de générer des fiches de données clients (d'appel). Les règles commerciales qui indiquent les différents montants appliqués aux différents contenus ou aux différents utilisateurs peuvent être incorporés dans le système.

Abstract: An optical switching fabric enables an optical signal entering the device on any one of multiple input ports to be directed to any one of multiple output ports. The present optical switching fabrics include sensing and monitoring devices that permit precise initial calibration and continuous switch connection status monitoring and control. Light entering the switching fabric on an input port is reflected by one of a first set of individually controllable mirrors to one of a second set of individually controllable mirrors and then to a corresponding output port. The switching fabrics include control lasers and position sensing devices which provide output signals corresponding to the orientations of the mirrors. In addition, a subset of the input ports and output ports can be attached to monitor light sources and detectors for recalibration and control. Further, sensors for detecting the intensity of input signals, of signals that have been reflected by a mirror in the first set and by a mirror in the second set, and of signals backscattered from the output ports may be included.

Abstract: A system and method of making a hypermedium page
interactive. In one embodiment the system includes a
hyperlink on the hypermedium page displayed on a client
node; a hyperlink configuration file (corresponding to
the hyperlink on the client node) located on a network
server node; and a client agent located on the client
node. In response to a user selecting the hyperlink on
the hypermedium page, the client agent establishes a
communications link from the client agent to an
application execution server agent on an application
server using the information located in the
configuration file obtained from the network server
node. In response to the creation of the communications
link between the application execution server agent and
the client agent, the application executes on the
application execution server and the user is capable of
interactively using the application running on the
application execution node from the client node. Data
input and display occurs at the client node under the
control of the client agent.

Abstract: The method involves setting a tool axis at a setting angle relative to a z axis in the coordinate system of a milling tool (5). The coordinate systems of both the workpiece (4) and the tool is rotated relative to one another until a projection of the tool axis onto the X-Y plane of the coordinate system of the workpiece is parallel to the main axis of the coordinate system of the tool.  The surface recess is then machined, after which the workpiece and the milling tool are rotated towards the c axis to change from the machined recess to another recess. That recess is subsequently machined. The milling tool machine one side of the workpiece for a positive skew angle and opposite side in mirror image for a negative skew angle. An Independent claim is also included for a method of machining with a machine tool recesses on a workpiece.

Abstract: X-ray-reflective mirrors are disclosed, each including a thermal-transfer
device that conducts heat (caused by absorption by the mirror of incident X-ray
radiation) away from the mirror without imparting stress to the mirror. As a result,
each such mirror exhibits, compared to conventional X-ray-reflective mirrors,
reduced deformation and greater thermal stability during use of the mirror. A
typical X-ray-reflective mirror is formed from a mirror substrate and has an
"effective region" on which X-rays are incident. At least the effective region
includes an X-ray-reflective coating ( e.g. , multilayer coating). Attached to the
mirror are thermal-transfer members that function to conduct heat away from the
mirror. Each thermal-transfer member is attached to a respective location outside
the effective region of the mirror so as not to obstruct reflection of X-rays incident to
the effective region. Distal ends of the thermal-transfer members are connected to a
suitable cooling mechanism. The thermal-transfer members are configured and
dimensioned so as not to impart any significant stress to the mirror.

Abstract: A welding unit(11) produces a long welding joint between tow film strips(23a,23b) and has a cutter head(17) for cutting of the welded film strips. A fixed blade(19) on the cutting head is heated and has a cutting edge(21).  Blade(19) heating, which is continuous, is produced by a heating system(15) for the welding unit(11). Heat is transferred to the blade(19) via a heat bridge(18). The heat bridge extends to and contacts the blade and is preferably part of the cutting head(17) or a blade holder. The blade and cutting edge(21) pass right through the film strips(23a,23b) with the cutting edge at an angle, preferably 10-50degrees, more preferably 15-35degrees, to a the film strip plane(24). The cutter head is a few centimeters behind the welding wheels in the direction of film movement. Blades have an anti-adhesion coating. The welding unit comprises a pair of welding wheels, one(12) above and the other(13) below the film strip plane(24) so that they compress film strips between them.

Abstract: In accordance with one aspect of the present invention, what is
provided is a method for displaying an image using an active matrix display of
picture elements that radiate light in response to the application of electrical
power. In this method, a display mode is selected from at least a first and a
second mode. The image is presented on the display when the first mode is
selected and the image is presented in a modified form when a second mode is
selected. The image is modified so that presenting the image in the second mode
consumes less power than presenting the image in the first mode. 
     In another aspect what is provided is an image display driver for a
matrix display of picture elements that radiate light in response to the application
of power. The driver has a signal processor for receiving an image and processing
the image for presentation on the display in accordance one of at least a first mode
and a second mode. The signal processor modifies the appearance of the image as
presented in the second mode so that the presentation of the image in the second
mode consumes less power than the presentation of the same image in the first
mode. A device controller is provided. The device controller determines display
mode for displaying the image and generating a display mode selection signal.
The signal processor processes the image in a mode indicated by the display mode
selection signal.

Abstract: A vector motion detector is provided which corrects the quantity
of a motion vector determined from a block matching technique. The
block matching technique identifies a reference pixel extracted from
a current frame as its origin and a search block extracted from a
reference frame and moving within or along the circumference of a

detector makes the motion vector quantity correction so that the
motion vector will fall within the search range. Thus, it can
provide a smooth motion of even a fast moving image.
