Abstract: When a client requests metadata for a multimedia object, a server ( 120 ) computes a fingerprint for the multimedia object and matches it against entries stored in a primary database ( 121 ). Additionally, the server system ( 120 ) monitors one or more transmission channels such as radio broadcast channels, and computes transmission fingerprints for transmissions on those channels. The transmission fingerprints are matched with the fingerprints stored in the primary database ( 121 ), and if a match is found, an entry for the identified transmission is then added to the secondary database ( 122 ). Preferably this entry contains the transmission fingerprint. Subsequent matches are then first performed against the secondary database ( 122 ) and only upon unsuccessful matches also matched against the primary database ( 121 ). Also covers the method and a computer program product for performing the method.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne une barrière destinée à empêcher un rat de pénétrer dans une canalisation d'égout dans une direction à contre-courant.  La barrière de l'invention comprend : un premier volet pivotant (4) et un second volet pivotant (5), placé en amont du premier volet (4).  Les deux volets précités (4,5) forment un angle aigu par rapport à la direction de l'écoulement lorsqu'ils se trouvent dans une première position angulaire, dans laquelle le premier volet (4) au moins barre l'ouverture de la canalisation d'égout.  Le premier volet (4) peut basculer de la première position angulaire dans une seconde position angulaire, dans laquelle il libère l'ouverture de la canalisation d'égout.  Les deux volets (4,5) sont verrouillés de façon détachable l'un à l'autre lorsqu'ils se trouvent tous deux dans leur première position angulaire.  Le second volet (5) se trouve simultanément verrouillé de façon détachable à une butée fixe (13) sur la barrière.  Par conséquent, le rat ne peut pas ouvrir le premier volet et forcer la barrière.  Lorsque l'écoulement dans la canalisation d'égout devient tellement fort  que le rat ne parvient pas à faire son chemin vers l'amont, la pression du liquide force le second volet (5) à se placer dans une seconde position angulaire par rapport au premier volet (4), libérant de la sorte le contact de verrouillage entre le second volet (5) et la butée (13).  La pression du liquide permet alors de placer le premier volet (4) dans sa seconde position angulaire, dans laquelle le liquide peut librement circuler le long de la canalisation d'égout, mais avec une telle force que le rat n'est pas capable de forcer la barrière.
