Abstract: A telecommunications service billing administrator for providing real-time billing
query functionality. The billing administrator has a billing system with a processor coupled
to a billing information data repository. The billing information data repository updates an
account table and a call table during the placement of a telecommunications call leg. The
information updated includes a billing account summary. The subscriber can issue a
billing inquiry request in which the billing system responds with an announcement of the
billing account summary.

Abstract: A method for detecting static areas in a sequence of video
pictures is proposed. Five steps are performed within this
method to reliably differentiate the static areas and the
non-static areas in two succeeding video pictures. The steps
are:
   a) computation of pixel differences between
corresponding pixels (30) of consecutive frames or
consecutive fields with identical parities;   b) accumulation of the magnitudes of the pixel
differences over blocks (B(i,j)) of pixel values of the
video frames;   c) computation of thresholds T(i,j) for blocks of pixel
values (in a preferred embodiment adapted to an
estimated noise level (σ) and to a computed gradient
measure (g(i,j)) for each block);   d) applying the thresholds T(i,j) to the accumulated
pixel differences of the corresponding blocks thus
providing a preliminary map (PM) of static areas;   e) modifying the preliminary map (PM) of static areas by
eliminating isolated static blocks or small groups of
adjacent static blocks.    
     A final map (FM) of static areas is provided at the end of
the method. This can be used to optimise the resolution of
the output picture in static areas in the fields of video
upconversion, standards conversion and deinterlacing. In the
MPEG encoding field it allows for a further reduction of the
bit rate.

Abstract: In an analog electronic timepiece according to the present invention, a
step motor (1) which retains a small holding energy is used, and in order to
make the value of a disturbance energy which the step motor (1) receives
through an external impact less than the holding energy value which the step
motor (1) retains, a weight 20 is added, to lessen a moment of the whole
rotary body, at least to a part of the rotary body including a hand (8) and train
wheels (11, 2, 12, 3) for the rotation of the hand. Alternatively, a thin part,
a through hole, or a notch may be formed at least in a part of said rotary body,
or a part of the rotary members may be formed by a combination of members
with different specific gravities from each other. Transmission of the
disturbance energy occurring at the hand part to the step motor (1) may be
prevented by providing a reverse transmission preventing gear at a part of
said train wheels.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un composé de formule (I), où R1 et R2 r eprésente chacun indépendamment un arylamino, diphénylamino, benzylamino ou dibenzylamino et Z représente un groupe partant. En général, le groupe -SO¿2?-CH2-CH2-Z est un vinylsulfone bloc et dans certains cas, il est avantageux d'utiliser le vinylsulfone libre. Le groupe partant Z peut contenir, par exemple, un sulfato (-OSO3?-¿), S-thiosulfato (-SSO¿3?-), sarcosine, N-méthyltaurine, N,N-acétate dialcoylé (-O-CO-CH¿3?), acyloxy (O-CO-R), où R est un alkyle (C1-C5), phosphato (OPO?-¿3) ou un halogène. L'activation du groupe partant s'effectue normalement au moyen d'un réchauffement dans des bains légèrement acides de façon à rendre le vinylsulfone réactif à la fibre. Selon une autre variante, le vinylsulfone réactif libre peut être préalablement constitué puis appliqué à l'état de dispersion sur un tissu. Les composés de l'invention contiennent plus de noyaux aromatiques non substitués par des groupes de vinylsulfone, ce qui semble améliorer la liaison pi. En outre, selon la présente invention, le système pi est plat, ce qui est apparu d'une importance cruciale pour augmenter l'affinité des fibres aux colorants en dispersion, ainsi que pour offrir une résistance au rétrécissement et conférer au tissu d'autres propriétés.

The primary information carrying means (4) have magnetic first connecting means (4a). Within the device there is a movable, rotating second connecting means (5b), with an attracting magnetic force between the first and second connecting means (4a, 5b). The primary information carrying means (4) is movably positioned on the outer surface (2a) of the device, and the second connecting means (5b) is positioned within the device in the proximity of the first connecting means (4a). The magnetic force is great enough for the primary information carrying means (4) to be attached to the surface of the information carrying outer surface (2c) of the carrier frame (1) and to be kept in place only by the attracting magnetic force acting between the first connecting means (4) and the second connecting means (5b) and by the frictional forces arising from said magnetic force.

Abstract: An optical device (300) comprises a multilayer structure, formed by wafer bonding, incorporating in sequence a silicon dioxide layer (304), a buried silicide layer (306), a contact layer (308) and a silicon surface layer (310). The surface layer (310) is selectively etched to form an exposed rib (312). An upper surface of the rib (312) is doped to form an elongate electrode (314) therealong. The surface layer (310) is selectively etched to the contact layer (308) in regions remote from the rib (312) to form via channels (316a, 316b) for making electrical connection to the contact layer (308). The rib (312) forms a waveguide along which radiation propagates. When the electrode (314) is biased relative to the contact layer (308), charge carriers are injected into the rib (312) and induce refractive index changes in a central region (324) thereof where most of the radiation propagates along the rib (312). The silicide layer (306) provides an efficient current conduction path for injecting the carriers, thereby providing enhanced device operating bandwidth and reduced power dissipation.
