Patent EP-0459792-A2 (EP)
Inventor: ZDYBEL FRANK JR
IPC: G06Q10/10
Filed: 1991-05-30
Abstract: Provision is made in electronic document processing systems for printing unfiltered or filtered machine-readable digital representations of electronic documents, and human-readable renderings of them on the same record medium using the same printing process. The integration of machine-readable digital representations of electronic documents with the human-readable hardcopy renderings of them may be employed, for example, not only to enhance the precision with which the structure and content of such electronic documents can be recovered by scanning such hardcopies into electronic document processing systems, but also as a mechanism for enabling recipients of scanned-in versions of such documents to identify and process annotations that were added to the hardcopies after they were printed and/or for alerting the recipients of the scanned-in documents to alterations that may have been made to the original human-readable content of the hardcopy renderings. 
     In addition to storage of the electronic representation of the document, provision is made for encoding information about the electronic representation of the document itself, such as file name, creation and modification dates, access and security information, printing histories. Provision is also made for encoding information which is computed from the content of the document and other information, for purposes of authentication and verification of document integrity. Provision is also made for the encoding of information which relates to operations which are to be performed depending on handwritten marks made upon a hardcopy rendering of the document; for example, encoding instructions of what action is to be taken when a box on a document is checked. Provision is also made for encoding in the hardcopy another class of information: information about the rendering of the document specific to that hard copy, which can include a numbered copy of that print, the identification of the machine which performed that print, the reproduction characteristics of the printer, the screen frequency and rotation used by the printer in rendering halftones. Provision is also made for encoding information about the digital encoding mechanism itself, such as information given in standard-encoded headers about subsequently compressed or encrypted digital information.

Abstract: Weather simulation is a modular addition to a digital radar landmass simulator (DRLMS). The DRLMS is a four channel system, i.e., culture, elevation, aspect and weather. All four channels are integrated to provide a simulated radar landmass simulation with weather. Implementation entails the full or partial occultation of terrain and targets by weather and vice versa. Weather mass is simulated in three dimensions; that is, it has a bottom and height. The weather mass is not made of simple geometric objects. Weather maps can be loaded into the system as weather patterns, and the weather patterns can be expanded, rotated and translated. In addition, the weather channel can be used to simulate chaff and jamming patterns.

Abstract: The invention relates to an adjustable fixing device which can be installed into an opening of a vehicle body. The adjustable fixing device has a screw connection with which a wall section of a carrying element, produced from plastic, can be non-adjustably fixed to a part of a vehicle body. The wall section of the carrying element has a groove in whose base a fixing opening is made, through which opening the fixing bolt of the screw connection passes. A head of the screw connection rests on a plain washer arranged between the head and the wall section. In the central opening of the plain washer, the fixing bolt is held in the longitudinal extent of the groove largely without play. The plain washer rests with narrow side faces on the surface sections of the groove which face one another and extend in parallel with one another. In this arrangement, there is such a positive and/or frictional engagement on the contact faces that when the vehicle light is adjusted, and thus when the screw connection is loosened, the plain washer can be displaced in the longitudinal extent of the groove above a specific minimum force. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A serial simplex switch 14 design is provided which includes I/O ports 20 each of which is configurable specifically for attachment to a data communications subsystem 12 or, alternatively, for cascaded connection to a similarly configured I/O port 20 on another switch 14. The switch 14 provides a packet routing function including input 32 and output 36 buffers for each of its I/O ports 20 wherein packets of control messages sent by one subsystem 20 are temporarily stored prior to being delivered to the appropriate destination subsystem 20. When configured to be directly attached to a subsystem 20, the I/O ports 20 separate control messages from incoming integrated data and control message strings. In a cascade configuration, however, a mechanism is provided wherein data and control messages are separated into two physical paths to eliminate the delays associated with integrated data and control message flow through the cascaded I/O port 20. Each I/O port 20 is configurable to either of these methods of operation by means of programmable latches associated with the I/O port 20.

Abstract: Telephone terminals which differ in terms of the dialling mode used (pulse dialling or multifrequency code dialling modes) are to be connected to the small communication system. No earth indication is provided in the subscriber circuit for the pulse dialling unit. An enquiry is initiated by dialling a code in the case of an accepted incoming call connection, whereas, in the case of a connected terminal with multifrequency code dialling mode, this is effected by operating a signal key (flash). Time overlaps thus occur for the respective effected line interruptions, so that an unambiguous statement on the dialling mode of the terminal currently involved is not possible. Therefore, when a telephone terminal is connected, and also in the case of every incoming seizure, an evaluation is provided for dialling information relating to both types. If the assigned dialling mode is identified through activation of an evaluation, storage is effected in a memory space of a non-volatile memory through signals characterising this dialling mode concerned. When an enquiry is initiated during an accepted incoming call, the dialling mode assigned to the terminal concerned can be established by the controller by reading the contents of the memory space. <IMAGE>
