Abstract: La présente invention concerne un procédé, un système et un logiciel de traitement de données, permettant de produire des identificateurs d'adresse destinés à un usage dans un réseau de communication. Ce procédé consiste à traiter un premier identificateur d'adresse, établi selon un premier protocole de communication, puis à établir un second identificateur d'adresse, à partir dudit premier identificateur, selon un second protocole de communication. Le premier protocole de communication peut être un protocole de transfert de courrier simple (SMTP) et le second protocole de communication peut être un protocole d'initiation de session (SIP). Cette invention permet d'envoyer des messages à une adresse URL SIP dérivée d'une adresse de courrier électronique SMTP. Si l'adresse URL SIP n'est pas valide ou n'est pas enregistrée, le message SIP est dévié d'un identificateur d'adresse URL SIP à destination définie vers un identificateur d'adresse URL SMTP à destination définie correspondant, pour le même utilisateur ou système terminal. Ainsi, les utilisateurs peuvent envoyer des messages SIP à des identificateurs d'adresse SMTP, en utilisant le protocole et l'infrastructure de réseau SMTP (416), et peuvent envoyer des messages SMTP à des identificateurs d'adresse SIP, en utilisant le protocole et l'infrastructure de réseau SIP (408, 410, 412).

Abstract: La présente invention porte sur des méthodes d'assemblage de contreplaqué et sur le dispositif connexe, qui permet de compter sur un processus d'assemblage plus efficient et efficace que la méthode et l'appareil classiques. Lors du transport d'une feuille de contreplaqué à un seul pli (T) dans la direction orthogonale le long de l'extrémité d'assemblage (Te) sur le convoyeur, les extrémités d'assemblage des feuilles de contreplaqué précédente et suivante se trouvent à faible distance l'une de l'autre. L'adhésif (Sd) est inséré dans l'espace situé entre les deux feuilles et l'action favorisant la prise de l'adhésif est dirigée vers l'adhésif (Sd) de sorte à joindre les feuilles de contreplaqué à un seul pli (T) en succession. L'action favorisant la prise de l'adhésif peut être appliquée dans la section d'augmentation de l'adhérence indiquée par les lignes Z1 et Z2, qui se trouve du côté éloigné par rapport à la position d'approche de l'extrémité (U). Cette action est produite à l'aide d'un élément favorisant l'adhérence (6), qui se déplace d'avant en arrière en tout temps pendant le déplacement de la feuille de contreplaqué à un seul pli (T) ou pendant que la feuille est immobile. De plus, l'action d'augmentation de l'adhérence est d'abord appliquée sur l'adhésif (Sd) qui a été mis en place afin de coller les extrémités d'assemblage situées du côté éloigné par rapport à la direction du mouvement des feuilles.

Title: Method and apparatus for placing virtual objects
Inventor: HENDRICKS JOHN S
IPC: H04H60/33
Filed: 2001-06-28
Granted: 2012-10-16
Abstract: A method and an apparatus are used to place virtual objects in video programs.  Programs are selected and virtual object locations are defined in the selected programs. The available virtual objects available are categorized and the categories are correlated to subscriber information. When a frame of a program includes a virtual object location, a default or an alternate virtual object is displayed. The virtual object location may change over space or time. The virtual object may be interactive, and may be used to link a subscriber to a remote location, such as an Internet web site. An operations center or a cable headend may generate a group assignment plan that assigns the subscriber's terminals to groups, based on factors such as area of dominant influence and household income. A placement plan may instruct the television terminals to display the desired virtual object. The television terminals may record which virtual objects were displayed, and may report this information to the cable headends and the operations center. The reported information is used to generate billing for commercial advertisers, and to analyze viewer watching habits. The invention uses upstream data reception hardware, databases and processing hardware and software, and corresponding features in the televisions to accomplish these functions.

Abstract: A dual-flush flapper valve assembly, set for a normally short flush, is provided for use with a pivoting flapper valve in a flush tank. The assembly comprises a weight, which moves back and forth along a guide relative to the flapper's pivot point. The moveable weight, if activated, temporarily reduces the turning moment arm of the flapper for ensuring a long flush. The assembly further comprises an actuator to trap and release the weight, resulting in either a short flush (when the weight is remote from the pivot) or a long flush (when the weight is close to the pivot). The flapper assembly is engageable through a resistance force, for selectively triggering the actuator, shifting the weight and resulting in a long flush. After a long flush the assembly resets for a short flush, until activated once again.

Abstract: A speech coding method and device for encoding and decoding an input signal, wherein the higher frequency components of the synthesized speech are achieved by high-pass filtering and coloring an artificial signal. The processed artificial signal is scaled by a first scaling factor during the active speech periods of the input signal and a second scaling factor during the non-active speech periods, wherein the first scaling factor is characteristic of the higher frequency band of the input signal and the second scaling factor is characteristic of the lower frequency band of the input signal. In particular, the second scaling factor is estimated based on the lower frequency components of the synthesized speech and the coloring of the artificial signal is based on the linear predictive coding coefficients characteristic of the lower frequency of the input signal.

Abstract: A hot water humidifier with an automatic siphon drain fed with cooler source water is flushed via a drain. The humidifier includes the humidifier tank and an inverted U- shaped siphon conduit having one end coupled to the tank and the other end coupled to the drain. A valve controlling the cooler source water feeds the water into the tank to maintain the temperature of an admixture of cooler source water and any preexisting tank water at or below a predetermined temperature during a flush cycle. The tank is flushed and drained via the automatic siphon based upon the level of the admixture in the tank and the level of admixture in the siphon. The source water may be coupled to the humidifier tank via the siphon conduit such that cooler source water may be added during the siphoning action. A method of flushing a hot water humidifier is also included.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne, dans un mode de réalisation, un système et un procédé de masquage des erreurs vidéo. Ce système permet de coder des informations vidéo, de les réordonner et de les mettre en paquets de données vidéo pour les transmettre par un réseau de transmission. Le système permet de masquer les erreurs causées par les paquets de données vidéo perdus lorsque le système reçoit, sépare, ordonne (915) et décode les paquets de données. Dans un mode de réalisation, le système et le procédé permettent de coder des informations vidéo et de les mettre en paquets, de façon que les macroblocs adjacents ne soient pas placés dans les mêmes paquets de données vidéo (925). De plus, le système et le procédé peuvent fournir des informations avec les paquets de données vidéo pour faciliter le processus de décodage. Ces caractéristiques sont avantageuses, car si les erreurs causées par la perte d'un paquet de données vidéo situées autour d'un macrobloc perdu sont décodées avec succès, le décodeur peut prévoir les vecteurs mouvement et le contenu spatial avec une plus grande précision, ce qui permet d'obtenir une plus grande qualité vidéo.
