Abstract: A sensor that enables dry rot Serpula lacrimans in a building to be located and surveyed without the usual disruption to the building fabric. The sensor is a dual-purpose device that detects the presence of wood destroying fungi within the fabric of a building before wood rot takes place. It enables locations that are at risk from rot to be identified and detects the presence of the growth of wood rot fungi by changing colour. The extent of a wood rot problem can be mapped out and visualised. The sensor enables the viability of wood destroying fungi within the building fabric to be assessed. The success of any remedial work can be verified by determining if the wood destroying fungi remain alive or viable. <IMAGE>

Abstract: With the appearance of Dual Mode Handhelds that support 802.11 WLAN as well as GSM radio, it is possible to use Voice over IP (VoIP) in parallel to GSM to provide telephony services. One important telephony service apart from the voice call is the Short Message Service (SMS). Today's GSM Short Message Service has, however, not been designed to interoperate with a Voice over IP service. As a consequence, those terminals wouldn't receive any SMS as long as they are not registered in the GSM. 
This invention describes a method or service entity by which Dual Mode Handhelds will receive short messages while registered in a VoIP system.
