Patent CA-2583801-A1 (CA)
Inventor: ROGERS STEVEN A
IPC: H04J3/16
Filed: 2005-09-14
Abstract: A network connection device (505) bridges a first network (504) that uses a negotiated packet delivery scheduling scheme and a second network (503) that uses an empirically determined packet delivery scheduling scheme. The network connection device (505) translates a request to communicate over the first network (504) into a request to communicate over the second network (503), thus bridging the two networks. The negotiated packet delivery scheduling scheme permits endpoints (501, 502) to negotiate scheduled delivery times for packets, while the empirically determined packet delivery scheme tests various time interval locations in a network to determine favorable time locations for transmission. The two protocols are bridged by finding compatible overlaps between time interval locations in the two networks. This can provide error-free delivery with low jitter among packets.

IPC: B22D11/00
Filed: 2006-02-20
Abstract: A process for producing a continuous magnesium material having excellent suitability for plastic working; and a continuous magnesium material obtained by the process. Pure magnesium or a magnesium alloy is cast and this cast material is subjected to plastic working to obtain a continuous processed material. The plastic working involves hot working which is conducted at 250~C  or higher so as to result in a decrease in sectional area. Hot working yields oxides around the surfaces of the work during the working. Because of the presence of such oxides around the surface of the processed material, there is a possibility that the oxides might serve as starting points for cracks or wire breakage when the processed material is subjected to plastic working (secondary processing) such as wire drawing or forging. In this process, a surface layer of the processed material is hence removed to thereby effectively eliminate the oxides serving as starting points for cracks or wire breakage. Thus, suitability for secondary processing is improved.
