Abstract: A tubular blank (10) of a constant thickness (s 1 ) is arranged
on an inner counter roller (21) with an outer diameter (D 2 )
which is significantly smaller than the inner diameter (D 1 )
of the tubular blank (10). A motor-driven roller (22) is
pressed radially against the outside of the blank (10). The
outer roller (22) is controlled to rotate, thereby causing
the tubular blank (10) and the inner counter roller (21) also
to rotate. A forming roller (20), operable to move in a
controlled manner through an axial plane, is brought into
contact with the outside of the blank (10) in order to obtain
a tubular blank with a final axial length (L 2 ) greater than
the initial axial length (L 1 ) and at least one portion (12)
which is thinner (s 2 ) and axially elongated.

Abstract: Automatic coil selection is based on determining an index gauge (116) for a
corresponding k-space data line acquired for each preselected coil during a
prescan (102, 104). Reliance on manual coil selection and markers is
eliminated by adaptively determining the coils of an MR system that produce a
preferred sensitivity to a desired field-of-view (FOV). The fast scan (104) data
is used to determine those coils most sensitive to the FOV and reject coil(s)
least sensitive. Using only data acquired with the most sensitive coils, SNR is
increased and unwanted artifacts are reduced in the final data acquisition and
image reconstruction. Through automatic and adaptive selection/deselection,
the invention reduces the susceptibility to human error, and therefore results
in higher quality images.

Abstract: A method and apparatus are disclosed which incorporate a system for
enabling the adaptive modification of the security level of a node in a
network. The system is particularly applicable to dynamic network i.e.
networks in which nodes may be mobile and in which the network topology
is not constant. The node receives beacon signals from other nodes in
the network, said signals providing an indication of the alert level of
the other nodes and an indication of whether the other nodes are trusted
members of the network. The alert level of the node is determined based
on the received signals.

Abstract: A process for transmitting data on a bus,
minimizing the switching activity, involves converting
the data between a first format (b(t)) and a second
format (B(t)) used for transmission of the data. The
conversion between said first format (b(t)) and said
second format (B(t)) entails the swapping of position
of respective bits within a cluster comprising a given
number of bits, the swap operation being implementable
according to different variants, the maximum number of
said variants being equal to the factorial of the
aforesaid given number. Each of said variants is
identified by a respective pattern (P t ). Among the
aforesaid patterns, an optimal pattern is selected
which minimizes the switching activity (SA) at the
moment of transmission of data on the bus. The data are
then transmitted on the bus using the second format
(B(t)) generated using said optimal pattern.

Abstract: A system and method for enhancing resolution in a video image includes acquiring (102) a relatively low resolution video signal (2) and applying (104) a peaking function and analyzing the peaked signal to identify (106) potential edges. The low resolution signal (2) is then upconverted (108) to a higher resolution format. Actual edges in the image are detected (110) and linked (112) in the higher resolution format, and a luminance transition improvement function is applied (114) to the edges to sharpen the image. Analysis of the image while at low resolution reduces computation time, yet still produces a high quality output image.
