Inventor: CASASSA MONT MARCO
IPC: G06Q40/00
Filed: 2002-11-19
Abstract: There is provided an automated negotiation agent 1 and method of evaluating risk and
trust from different contractual viewpoints during electronic negotiation of contracts,
preferably e-contracts, in a business to business environment. The negotiation agent
1 on receiving a contract proposal from another agent 15, analyses the contract
proposal from different viewpoints to determine measures of the risk and trust
involved. A response 20 is formulated from the measures of risk and trust, and is
returned to the other agent 15. The negotiation agent 1 has an evaluation engine 9
which evaluates the risk and viewpoints for the contract proposal by accessing a risk
and trust functions and viewpoints database 4, a contract template database 2, a
contract context database 13 and contract history repository 10. The negotiation
agent also has a negotiation engine 8 that evaluates the effect of the contract
proposal from different levels using the risk and trust viewpoints received from the
evaluation engine 9. The negotiation engine 8 is driven by a utility function and can
access the contract template database 2 and the contract history repository 10 during
its evaluation. The response returned to the other agent 15 is dependant on the
evaluation and is output by the negotiation engine 8.

IPC: G06F3/0354
Filed: 2003-05-28
Abstract: Capacitive proximity sensing is carried out by detecting a relative change in the capacitance of a
"scoop" capacitor formed by a conductor and a surrounding ground plane. Charge is transferred
between the "scoop" capacitor and a relatively large "bucket" capacitor, and a voltage of the
bucket capacitor is applied to an input threshold switch. A state transition (e.g., from low to
high, or high to low) of the input threshold switch is detected and a value (TouchVal) indicative
of a number of cycles of charge transfer required to reach the state transition is determined. The
presence or absence of an object or body portion in close proximity to or contact with a device
can be determined by comparing TouchVal with a predetermined threshold value (TouchOff). In
order to lessen the time required for detection, and/or improve the sensitivity thereof, the bucket
capacitor may initially be charged to a repeatable non-zero reference level closer to the charge
level that will cause a state transition. TouchOff can be adjusted to take into account
environmentally induced (non-touch related) changes in the capacitance of the scoop capacitor.
Power management may be provided in a user operated data input device utilizing the inventive
proximity sensing.

Abstract: Production of ceramic objects (12), especially beakers, cups, etc., comprises a first step in which at least one ceramic object is cast in a casting mold (14) having a top mold (16) and a bottom mold and then pressed. In a second step the casting mold is opened, the top mold is moved laterally into a flushing position, and a suction removal device (20) is moved from a lateral waiting position into a suction position to remove the ceramic object from the bottom mold. In a third step the suction removal device is moved laterally with the ceramic object into a jet washing position in which the ceramic object is jet washed. The top mold is simultaneously moved back into the casting position, the casting mold is closed and a new casting process is started. In a fourth step the suction removal device is moved into a discharge position and the ceramic object is transferred to a transport device (32). In a fifth step the suction removal device is moved back into the waiting position and remains in this position until the renewed casting and pressing process has ended.  An Independent claim is also included for a device (10) used for producing ceramic objects and comprising a top mold and a bottom mold.
