Patent CA-2154089-A1 (CA)
Inventor: WEARE GERALD W
IPC: H04M3/50
Filed: 1995-07-18
Abstract: In a processing system distributed over a large geographic area, data are transferred from one system to another by a combination of as needed basis and a continually executing background utility.  To transfer voice mailboxes and voicemail processing to a newly installed or under-utilized system, a communication network is established between at least one source system and a destination system.  The migration function is activated on the destination system by specifying one or more migration ranges of mailboxes.  When a call is received for one of the mailboxes  in the migration range(s), if the destination system does not have the mailbox information in its database, a query is sent to the source system to retrieve the mailbox information which is stored at the destination system.  Messages are retrieved from the source system by the destination system using remote play capabilities. The background migration utility sequences through mailboxes in the specified migration range (s) and transfers all mailbox information which has not yet been transferred by queries. When the background utility is finished, the migration function can be deactivated and the mailboxes  on the source system can be deleted when all of the voice messages of the migrated mailboxes have expired.

Title: Method and apparatus for viewing electronic documents
Inventor: WARNOCK JOHN E
IPC: G06F3/048
Filed: 1995-07-28
Abstract: A reader for displaying an electronic document provided in a predetermined format and allowing articles of the document to be read in the direction of their content information flow. The reader includes a selector to select an article of the document to be read. A displayer displays a first portion of the article in a manner which promotes comfortable viewing, and a navigator permits the display of the next and remaining sequential portions of the article in content flow (or reverse content flow) order. Preferably, the displayer pans and zooms, as necessary, to position the article portion in an article viewing window.     A method for viewing electronic documents on a digital computer includes the steps of storing in the memory of the digital computer an electronic document, selecting an article to be displayed on an output device of the digital computer in an article view, displaying at least a portion of the article in the article viewing mode on the output device, and using an input device of the digital computer to cause a display of additional portions of the article to be displayed on the output device in the article viewing mode. These additional portions of the article are determined, at least in part, by predefined article sections and section links of the document so that the thread of the article can be followed in forward and reverse directions.

Patent CA-2184327-A1 (CA)
Inventor: LAURSEN POUL
IPC: G01N27/83
Filed: 1996-08-28
Abstract: An apparatus for analyzing anomalies such as cracks, corrosion and the like in a pipeline wall is provided. The apparatus is formed of one or more cylindrical body sections. A series of magnetizing units are mounted around the circumference of the body.  Each magnetizing unit is formed by a backing bar, brushes which are capable of inducing a magnetic field, sensors which are capable of measuring magnetic flux leakage caused by anomalies in the wall and bearing wheels which reduce wear on the brushes and sensors. The backing bar is flexibly mounted on the body so that it can follow the contour of the pipeline wall as the apparatus moves through the pipeline. The backing bar has steel-containing brushes mounted on either end atop magnets of opposite polarities such that a magnetic field may be transmitted to the pipeline wall. The brushes are ideally formed by steel cables encased in polyurethane and mounted on a steel shell. The sensors are mounted in the central part of the backing bar, between the brushes. The sensors preferably have a parallelogram cross-sectional shape and are molded of polyurethane or other suitable material so that they are flexible enough to follow the contour of the pipeline wall as the apparatus travels through the pipeline and, hence, maintain the orientation of the sensing element in the sensor body in relation to the pipeline wall. A wear plate and wear pads may be mounted on top of the sensor body for reducing wear on the sensor.
