Abstract: A plate-making system, in which a light-sensitive lithographic
printing plate carrying an interleaf paper superimposed thereon and/or an
original plate for making a dummy plate carrying an interleaf paper
superimposed thereon are processed in a plate-setter provided with an
automatic interleaf paper-removing mechanism and an automatic
developing machine, is characterized in that it comprises a means for
detecting the presence of any interleaf paper on the lithographic printing
plate and/or the original plate or a means for discriminating the interleaf
paper, the light-sensitive lithographic printing plate and the original plate.
A plate-making method of the invention is characterized by irradiating the
interleaf paper, the lithographic printing plate and the original plate for
making a dummy plate with sensor light rays after they are passed through
the automatic interleaf paper-removing mechanism and determining the
intensity of the light to thus detect any interleaf paper possibly present on
the plates or discriminate the interleaf paper, the light-sensitive
lithographic printing plate and the original plate for making a dummy plate
from one another. The plate-making method permits the reliable detection
of the presence of interleaf papers on light-sensitive lithographic printing
plates and/or original plates for dummy plates and the plate-making
operations can thus stably be carried out using a plate-setter and an
automatic developing machine.

Abstract: Particulate amount detecting means is provided for directly or indirectly detecting the
amount of particulate trapped in the particulate filter (12), and fuel injection pressure
controlling means reduces the fuel injection pressure from the fuel injection pressure
adjusted in accordance with the operational condition of the engine, when the
particulate amount detected by the particulate amount detecting means reaches a
predeterminable amount. Accordingly, the fuel injection pressure is reduced from the
fuel injection pressure set in accordance with the operational condition of the engine
when the particulate amount trapped in the particulate filter (12) reaches the
predeterminable amount, so that the combustion slowly proceeds to increase the
exhaust-gas temperature, thereby regenerating the particulate filter (12) while
suppressing the occurrence of misfire.

Abstract: A method and system for enabling interconnection of VPNs is disclosed. An
interconnection device manages an interconnection process at one or more facilities
including, for example, a gateway device. The gateway device has information relating
to a plurality of VPNs, and may facilitate interconnection between devices on at least two
of the VPNs by determining that one device is in fact a member of a first one of the
VPNs, and by forwarding connection parameters of the first VPN to the second VPN on
an as-needed basis. In this way, the gateway allows interconnection without the need for
a completely centralized decision-making process, and does so independently of the type
of device and/or VPN(s) being used. Moreover, the gateway may implement only those
VPN parameters needed by both VPNs to communicate with one another with a desired
level of security, thereby simplifying the routing and forwarding processes associated
with the actual communication occurring via the interconnection. The information
related to the plurality of VPNs and their respective member devices may be stored in a
mapping table at the gateway, and identification parameters of a device seeking
interconnection and/or associated VPN parameters may be verified by the use of digital
certificates.

Abstract: A communication system includes a cell site router that receives a voice traffic stream in a layer two based protocol. The cell site router removes redundant information to generate a compressed stream of payloads from the layer two based protocol voice traffic stream. The cell site router sorts each payload of the compressed stream according to its intended destination and generates a layer two packet for each group of payloads of the compressed stream having a same intended destination. The cell site router prioritizes for transmission each layer two packet with other packets not carrying the voice traffic stream and having the same intended destination The communication system also includes an aggregation node that receives packets from the cell site router. The aggregation node separates layer two packets from the other packets and extracts each payload from each of the layer two packets. The aggregation node decompresses each payload carried by the layer two packet and forwards each payload towards its intended destination.
