Title: Framing algorithms minimizing channel excursion
IPC: H04J3/16
Filed: 1989-10-17
Abstract: Algorithms for ordering selects for a plurality of 
channels to be multiplexed into a frame so as to minimize or 
reduce channel excursion are provided. The channel select 
position counter for each of the channels to be multiplexed 
are initialized. In one embodiment, the first and succeeding 
channel selects are chosen based on the lowest price (highest 
cost) ready channel, with the price of a channel being equal 
to the value of the channel select position counter divided by 
the number of selects for that channel in the frame, and the 
readiness of the channel being indicated either by an 
indicator, or by the relative value of the position counter to 
the initial value of the position counter. After a select is 
made, the position counter of the selected channel is 
increased by the total number of selects in the frame, and the 
position counters of all of the channels, including the 
selected channel are decremented by a value corresponding to 
the number of selects for that channel in the frame. After 
such updating, another selection for the frame may be based on 
the lowest priced ready channel. In a second embodiment, the 
first and succeeding channel selects are chosen based 
primarily on the respective values of the channel ready 
counters such that a channel having a ready counter of 
relative higher value is always selected before a channel 
having a ready counter of relatively lower value. Where 
channel ready counter integer values of more than one channel 
are equal, the highest rate channel of the highest ready count 
 
 
contributing first. After a select is made, the ready counter 
of the selected channel is decremented by a value 
corresponding to the number of selects for that channel in the 
frame. If the position counter of a channel reach zero or 
goes negative as a result of the decrementing, the position 
counter of that channel is increased by the total number of 
selects in the frame, and the ready counter for that channel 
is incremented by one.

IPC: G07F7/10
Filed: 1989-11-06
Abstract: A method for "on-line/off-line" digital signing is 
described and begins by pre-computing a data string x from a 
pair of matching public and secret keys of a digital signature 
scheme such that, for any message m later selected to be 
signed, a signature of m derived from x can be computed 
substantially faster than the signature of m derived from the 
matching public and secret keys. After a message m is 
selected to be signed, the method computes a signature σ of 
the message m using the data string x. Because the method 
uses a two-stage approach to sign a message, the technique can 
be advantageously used to enhance the security of known 
digital signature schemes or to effect transaction processing 
using "smart" cards.

Title: Casing hanger seal assembly
IPC: E21B33/04
Filed: 1992-02-12
Abstract: The present invention relates to an improved seal assembly for sealing between the interior sealing surface of a well housing and the exterior sealing surface of a hanger landed within the well housing and includes a seal body having a pair of outer lips diverging outwardly for sealing against the housing interior sealing surface and an interior series of annular ridges which have a diameter smaller than the outer diameter of the hanger exterior sealing surface, an upper energizer and a lower energizer for coacting with said lips to move the lips into sealing position and to store the energy of setting to ensure sealing engagement of the lips. The shape of the sealing lips is such that they each provide a sealing surface and a ridge having a greater outer diameter than the sealing surface so that when the seal assembly is being run into the housing any scratches resulting from the engagement of the seal with the interior of the housing is on the ridges and not on the sealing surfaces. Additionally, the exterior of the outwardly diverging lips is provided with a coating of a scratch healing material, such as sliver plate, so that scratches on the sealing surface can be healed when the sealing surface is wedged into sealing engagement with the interior wall of the housing. The upper and lower sealing lips are of an annealed or soft metal while the upper and lower energizer bodies are of a high yield strength metal so that the loading force on the lips can be stored and maintained after they are set into sealing position. In some forms of the invention the energy is stored by virtue of the lips being of a relatively low yield strength material as compared to the energizers which have a higher yield strength. Also, structure is provided in some of the forms of the invention to store both radial and axial lip loading forces.

Patent EP-0719022-A3 (EP)
Inventor: YASUDA HIROSHI
IPC: H04M1/72466
Filed: 1995-12-18
Abstract: In a communication terminal equipment and a method
of controlling call incoming, unnecessary noises in a period
from start of an alert sound to carrying out of the next
operation can be reduced. When a predetermined operation is
effected under the condition that an alert sound is ringing,
the alert sound is stopped or the volume of the alert sound is
reduced at least over a duration of call incoming. Thus, such
a fear that persons in the surroundings may be troubled by the
continuous ringing of the alert sound can be remarkably
reduced. Further, since the situation that power supply is cut
off forcibly during call origination can be avoided, such a
fear that a person on the call origination side may be given an
unpleasant feeling can be eliminated.

of films by monitoring the composition of the films during forming 
the films. The apparatus comprise the substrate holder(2) and 
heater(3) which are in the vacuum chamber(1) and Mo-coated glass 
substrate(4) on which Cu(In,Ga)Se 2  films(5) are deposited. The 
change of the substrate temperature is monitored by the use of a 
heating element(3) to heat the substrate by releasing a certain 
quantity of heat, a mechanism(6 or 8) of measuring a temperature of 
the heated substrate. The change of power supplied is monitored by 
the use of a power source(16) for the heating element(3) to keep the 
substrate at a certain temperature and a mechanism of monitoring the 
change of the power supplied to the heating element. The changes in 
substrate temperature or power supplied can be correlated to the film 
composition.
