Abstract: A communication system (1) is described in a possible embodiment comprising a main transmitter (TR) having two or more series arrangements of at least a digital signal processor (6) and a down sampler (7) coupled to the band pass filter (6), and having a multiplexer (MUX) coupled to each of the series arrangements and to a communication channel (CHUS, CHDS), and a main receiver (RC) having two ore more further series arrangements of at least an up sampler (9) and a further digital signal processor (10) coupled to the up sampler (9), and having a demultiplexer (DEMUX) coupled to the communication channel (CHUS, CHDS) and to each of the further series arrangements. Such a system is used for upstream transmission in a Hybrid Fiber Coax (HFC) network within specified frequency bands. The described system (1) provides extended flexibility to allow error reduced upstream transmission at an increased data rate. Control means (8, 11) provide adjustment of the digital signal processor parameters after installation of the system (1).

Abstract: L'invention porte sur un affinement automatique d'images d'épreuves sur écran dont le degré d'affinement dépend du facteur de grossissement appliqué par le dispositif d'affichage. L'apparence des détails d'une image d'épreuve sur écran peut varier selon le facteur de grossissement lui étant appliqué. L'affinement des données de l'image RGB originale à haute résolution peut ne pas être nécessaire si on utilise un zoomage important. Néanmoins, en cas de faible grossissement, on peut perdre beaucoup des détails de l'image, et dans ce cas, l'affinement dynamique de l'image aide à compenser le faible grossissement, ce qui préserve l'apparence des détails pour le spectateur. En particulier le degré d'affinement de l'image peut se régler en proportion sensiblement inverse du facteur de grossissement; on a donc une fonction adaptative d'affinement

Abstract: L'invention concerne un appareil et un procédé permettant de répondre de manière sécurisée et automatisée à des attaques de refus de service distribué (DDoS). Le procédé consiste à notifier une attaque DdoS reçue par un hôte Internet. L'hôte Internet établit alors une authentification de sécurité à partir d'un routeur montant à partir duquel est reçu le trafic d'attaque, transmis par au moins un ordinateur hôte. L'hôte Internet transmet alors au moins un filtre au routeur montant généré sur la base des caractéristiques du trafic d'attaque. Une fois installé par le routeur montant, le trafic d'attaque est interrompu pour terminer une attaque DdoS. En outre, le routeur peut déterminer au moins un routeur montant couplé aux ports à partir desquels le trafic d'attaque est reçu, et transmettre en toute sécurité les filtres aux routeurs montants comme protocole de routage actualisé, le trafic d'attaque est ainsi interrompu à un point plus proche de l'attaque DdoS.

Abstract: A security infrastructure and methods are presented that inhibit the ability of a
malicious node from disrupting the normal operations of a peer-to-peer network. The
methods of the invention allow both secure and insecure identities to be used by nodes by
making them self-verifying. When necessary or opportunistic, ID ownership is validated by
piggybacking the validation on existing messages. The probability of connecting initially to a
malicious node is reduced by randomly selecting to which node to connect. Further,
information from malicious nodes is identified and can be disregarded by maintaining
information about prior communications that will require a future response. Denial of service
attacks are inhibited by allowing the node to disregard requests when its resource utilization
exceeds a predetermined limit. The ability for a malicious node to remove a valid node is
reduced by requiring that revocation certificates be signed by the node to be removed.

Abstract: The tire tread mold consists of a peripheral ring of thin plates (1), measuring between 0.1 and 5 mm thick, that are positioned radially to determine the tread pattern by the shape of their inner edges. A number of adjacent mold plates are made with partial cut-outs (102) that co-operate to form venting channels.  The cut-outs in adjacent plates align with one another to create circumferential channels, connected by linking slits (104) and outlets (103) to the interior of the mold. The mold plates also have deformations with a spring function that pushes them apart when the mold is opened; and they can be divided into sectors with the plates in each sector fixed together to form blocks that can move relative to one another when the mold is opened or closed.

a bit stream acquired by encoding a transmission encoder packet. The
mobile station determines whether it will perform a decoding process caused by
initial transmission or a decoding process caused by retransmission on the received
subpacket, based on the control information.

Abstract: A multi-phase staged passive reactor (10) for promoting interphasic
interaction of a first substance in a liquid phase with a second substance
in a non-miscible liquid phase, a solid phase or a gaseous phase. The
reactor comprises a plurality of stages (C, D and E) which define a flow
path for the substances in different phases. Each stage is shaped to define
a substantially curved flow path (12) having a centre of curvature located
to one side of the flow path (12). Thus, for example, stages (D) and (E)
have a respective centre of curvature (14, 16), on opposite sides of the
flow path (12) whereby, in use, as the substances flow through the reactor
(10) particles of the second substance are forced to migrate through the
first substance, first in one direction and then in substantially the reverse
direction due to an inertial field of changing direction thus generated.
Due to the differences in the relative densities of the respective phases,
differential inertial forces are exerted on each phase as the mixture flows
along the general flow direction of the flow path (12) the interphasic
interaction thus produced includes both mechanical interaction due to, for
example, collisions and energy transfer, as well as chemical reactions due
to, for example, oxidation and ion-exchange. There are no moving parts
in the reactor (10) which is of relatively simple construction, and it is
extremely efficient, achieving high reaction rates, high mass transfer rates
and high mixing rates.

Abstract: Delay induced apparent amplitude desensitization in a data signal channel and its
accompanying worm-like distortion(19) in an Eye Diagram Analyzer is avoided by altering the
measurement to avoid the need for any substantial delay(7) in the path of the data channel threshold
comparison signals, In a first technique, only enough delay (48)will be inserted in the data channels
to produce the relative adjustments needed to compensate for skew between the data channels, as
determined by a calibration operation, and it is these de-skewed, but otherwise un-delayed, data
threshold comparison signals(49) that are, in rapid succession, clocked into the latches(50/51) whose
difference registers a hit at a given (time, voltage) pair. The clock path delay(40) is then varied from
a minimal value to a sufficiently large value capable of spanning a desired the number of eye
diagram cycles. In a second technique, the needed amounts of de-skew delay found by the calibration
operation are noted, and then the actual delays in the data path are set back to zero. The clock path
delay is swept as in the first technique. The de-skewing operation is then performed in post-processing
that produces the eye diagram after the measurement is complete. In either technique, the
short width of transitions in the data threshold comparison signals(P1&P7) that are associated with
threshold values near the extremes of data signal excursion are no longer swallowed by the finite
bandwidth of a long delay line, since the delay lines in the data channel paths now either introduce
only just enough delay to compensate for skew (and those amounts are very short), or, do not
introduce any extra delay at all.
