Abstract: A method of producing a security document or article including a substrate (100), which is transparent at least to visible light, and a diffractive optical microstructure (112). The method includes applying an opacifying layer (102) to at least one surface of the transparent substrate (100). An area of the opacifying layer (102) is exposed to laser radiation (108) to ablate apertures (110) in selected portions of the opacifying layer (102), thereby forming a diffractive optical microstructure (112) on the surface of the substrate (100). The laser radiation may be patterned prior to exposing the opacifying layer (102), for example by passing the radiation through a mask (104). Alternatively, a focussed or collimated laser beam (206) may be directed onto the selected portions of the opacifying layer (102). Laser radiation may be directed onto the opacifying layer (102) either directly, or through the transparent substrate (100). Security documents or articles made in accordance with the method are also provided.

Abstract: A data processing apparatus generates image data to be used for plural scans of first and second nozzle groups for ejecting ink, relative to a predetermined area of a print medium. The apparatus comprises a first means for dividing the image data to be printed on the predetermined area by the first nozzle group, by using a first pattern group having plural mask patterns corresponding to the plural scans, to generate the image data to be printed in each of the plural scans; and a second means for dividing the image data to be printed on the predetermined area by the second nozzle group, by using a second pattern group having plural mask patterns corresponding to the plural scans, to generate the image data to be printed in each of the plural scans. An arrangement of print permitting pixels in one mask pattern included in the first pattern group, which is to be used for generating image data to be printed in a predetermined scan of the plural printing scans, is different from an arrangement of print permitting pixels in one mask pattern included in the second pattern group, which is to be used for generating image data to be printed in the predetermined scan, and low frequency components of an arrangement pattern of print permitting pixels obtained by a logical product of the one mask pattern of the first pattern group and the one mask pattern of the second pattern group based on a correspondence relationship of the two mask patterns when the two mask patterns are used are fewer than that obtained by a logical product of the one mask pattern of the first pattern group and the one mask pattern of the second pattern group based on a correspondence relationship different from the correspondence relationship of the two mask patterns when the two mask patterns are used.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a method for handling event triggers and re-authorization triggers in packet data flow based charging. The method comprises: TPF estimating whether the bearer event currently occurred matches an event trigger, if the bearer event matches an event trigger, TPF performing a charging rule request process, then TPF estimating whether needs to trigger a re-authorization process, if it does, performing a re-authorization process, otherwise, ending the current process; if the bearer event does not match any event trigger, just estimating whether needs to trigger a re-authorization process, if it does, performing a re-authorization process, otherwise ending the current process. In this way, only one interaction for re-authorization is needed between TPF and OCS, thus the re-authorization process is optimized when there is overlap between event triggers and re-authorization triggers, and the re-authorization process in packet data flow based charging is improved.

Abstract: From palm oil valuable compounds like the tocochromanols, carotenoids, phytosterols, and others can be derived. Enrichment to highly concentrated fractions is hindered by the enormous number of components involved, the very low volatility, the very low solubility of many of the compounds in organic solvents, and the high viscosity of the mixtures to be processed.  Starting materials for the new process are enriched fractions of tocochromanols (about 20 to about 50 wt.-%) and/or carotenoids (about 10 to 30 wt.-%) from palm oil obtained by conventional processes, or by counter current multistage processes with supercritical carbon dioxide. These processes, not addressed here, may comprise: Removal of free fatty acids, transesterification of the triglycerides to methyl or ethyl esters, removal of the esters, e.g. by short path distillation, separation of the tocochromanol fraction from the carotenoid fraction by cooling.  In the new process, fractions derived from crude palm oil, already enriched to some extent in tocochromanols, carotenoids, phytosterols, and others, are being treated by supercritical fluid technology in a unique combination of counter current separation with selective adsorption and desorption using supercritical fluids.  A first enrichment, comprising one or more separation steps by application of a near critical or a supercritical fluid in a single or multistage (counter current) separation process is combined appropriately with a second enrichment step wherein the product of the first enrichment step is directly adsorbed on an adsorbent (silicagel) by passing the product flow over a fixed bed of adsorbent without substantial pressure change, and subsequent desorption with the same (or an other) near critical or supercritical fluid at the same or a different pressure as in the first separation, or by a pre-designed sequence of pressures and temperatures.  For the tocochromanol enrichment, carbon dioxide at near critical conditions above the critical temperature of carbon dioxide is used. For the carotenoid enrichment, propane at near critical conditions below the critical temperature of propane is used (fig. 2).

Abstract: A process derived hydrogen donor solvent is used to increase the maximum resid conversion and conversion rate in a resid hydrocracker typically of the ebullated bed kind. The hydrogen donor solvent precursor is produced by hydroreforming reactions within the resid hydrocracker, recovered as the resin fraction from a solvent deasphalting unit, regenerated in a separate hydrotreater reactor, and recycled to the ebullated bed resid hydrocracker. The major advantage of this invention relative to earlier processes is that hydrogen is more efficiently transferred to the resin residual oil in the separate hydrotreater and the hydrogen donor solvent effectively retards the formation of coke precursors at higher ebullated bed resid hydrocracker operating temperatures and resid cracking rates.
