Title: Selective encryption to enable trick play
Inventor: CANDELORE BRANT L
IPC: H04N7/167
Filed: 2003-08-12
Granted: 2011-09-27
Abstract: Certain embodiments consistent with the present invention involve a method of selectively encrypting and decoding digital video content. Certain of the packets are selected for encryption according to a selection criterion, wherein the selected packets exclude packets containing start of frame (SOF) headers. The selected packets are encrypted while retaining the packets containing the SOF headers unencrypted to form selectively encrypted digital video content. In decoding selectively encrypted digital video content, offsets are calculated for at least one of I frames and P frames from the SOF headers and the calculated offsets are stored as an offset table. The offset table can then be accessed to enable trick play of the selectively encrypted digital video content.

Abstract: Les structures et procédés utilisés pour produire les structures de l'invention permettent l'utilisation à grande échelle et efficace des déchets de blocs pour la fabrication de lamelles (91, 171, 205, 255). Les techniques employées permettent d'atteindre simultanément deux objectifs: en assemblant les déchets de blocs en blocs de longueur utilisable, et en débitant les blocs reconstitués en lamelles (91, 171, 205, 255) de différentes tailles. Le raccord entre blocs s'obtient par pénétration en profondeur d'entures multiples qui lorsque le matériau est découpé en lamelles (91, 171, 205, 255) reste un joint à entures multiples mince. De tels joints ont de plus l'avantage de "rompre" statistiquement les possibles différences de grain pouvant sinon créer un gauchissement, tout en permettant d'obtenir des lamelles (91, 171, 205, 255) de grande longueur par assemblage de déchets courts. On peut appliquer aux lamelles une couche de couverture par enrobage ou insertion sur laquelle on peut appliquer une laque résistant à l'UV, esthétique et prolongeant la vie de la persienne.

Abstract: L'invention porte sur un procédé d'estimation de la précision des mesures de chacun des compteurs de débit qui distribuent des fluides depuis un système de distribution de fluide comprenant un récipient de stockage. Ce procédé consiste à mesurer un volume de fluide distribué dans chacun des compteurs de débit au cours de plusieurs intervalles de temps pendant lesquels le fluide est immédiatement distribué dans chacun des compteurs de débit ; à mesurer un volume de fluide distribué depuis le récipient de stockage pendant chaque intervalle de temps ; et à calculer une fraction du volume de fluide distribué dans chaque compteur de débit par une analyse de régression par rapport au volume mesuré de fluide distribué depuis le récipient de stockage égal à une fraction d'une somme de volumes mesurés de fluide distribué dans chacun des compteurs de débit au cours de chaque intervalle de temps. La fraction de la somme des volumes mesurés de fluide distribué dans chacun des compteurs de débit correspond, en moyenne, à la somme des fractions de volumes mesurés de fluide distribué dans chacun des compteurs de débit sur l'ensemble des intervalles de temps.

Abstract: A retroreflective coating system and a method of providing the coating system on a substrate are disclosed. The method includes applying a color-providing composition, such as a pigmented basecoat composition, and applying a clearcoat composition. After application and cure, the color-providing composition forms a color-providing film layer, and the clearcoat composition forms a clearcoat film layer. The color-providing composition and the clearcoat composition are cross-linkable. Either one, or both, of the color-providing composition and the clearcoat composition include retroreflective microspheres. The color-providing composition is applied to the substrate to form an uncured film layer of the color-providing composition. Next, the clearcoat composition is applied wet-on-wet to the uncured film layer of the color-providing composition such that an uncured film layer of the clearcoat composition is formed on the uncured film layer of the color-providing composition.

IPC: G05B19/418
Filed: 1996-06-21
Granted: 2009-03-17
Abstract: A process of establishing valid statistical dimensional tolerance limits for designs of detail parts that will enable accurate prediction of an economically acceptable degree of non-conformance of a large flexible end item assembly, having a set of pre-determined dimensional tolerances, made from the detail parts, wherein the detail part tolerances are enlarged substantially compared to tolerances that would be necessary using an arithmetic "worst case" approach to remain within the end assembly tolerances while remaining within preestablished stress limits of the parts. A preferred assembly sequence for assembling the parts into the assembly is selected and validated. Locations, numbers and size of coordination features to be machined in said detail parts are selected, by which the parts are located relative to each other and fastened together to form the assembly. Individual part statistical dimensional tolerances are established as a fabrication requirement for the parts that enable the parts to be economically produced and assembled into assemblies that meet the predetermined assembly dimensional tolerances. The individual part statistical dimensional tolerances are broader than conventional tolerances that are established to ensure acceptable assemblies when parts are assembled at the extremes of their tolerances. stacked in a worst case manner. The parts are produced to the individual statistical dimensional tolerances in a capable process, having a Cpk equal to at least 1Ø while holding the mean values of the statistically determined dimensions of the individual parts to within a predetermined percentage of the nominal dimension. The end item is assembled in accordance with the preferred assembly sequence by locating the parts relative to each ocher by reference to the coordination feature. The property located parts are fastened together as located, using the coordination features as the primary determinator of assembly configuration.
