Patent CA-2464195-A1 (CA)
Inventor: LETH IB
IPC: B32B27/10
Filed: 2002-10-18
Abstract: A packaging laminate for a retortable packaging container, the packaging laminate (30) including a paper or paperboard layer (31), outer, liquid-tight coatings (32; 33) and an aluminium foil (34) serving as gas barrier between the paper or paperboard layer (31) and one of the two outer liquid-tight coatings (32). In order to compensate for or counteract possible loss of gas tightness because of crack formations or similar untightness in the tensile-sensitive aluminium foil (34), the packaging laminate (30) includes at least one additional layer (35) serving as gas barrier between the paper or paperboard layer (31) and the aluminium foil (34). Preferably, said at least one additional gas barrier layer (35) is bonded to the paper or paperboard layer (31) by an interjacent lamination or adhesive layer (36) of polypropylene or other olefin polymer, whereby the thickness or quantity of the additional gas barrier layer (36) may be reduced without deterioration in gas tightness properties in the finished packaging container.

Title: Heat treatable coated article with anti-migration barrier between dielectric and solar control layer portion, and methods of making same
Inventor: WANG HONG
IPC: C03C17/34
Filed: 2002-11-25
Abstract: A heat treatable coated article includes an oxidation graded layer designed so as to include an at least partially oxided anti-migration or barrier layer(s) portion provided between a solar management layer portion (e.g., NiCr layer portion) and a dielectric layer (e.g., silicon nitride). In certain example embodiments, the anti-migration or barrier layer(s) portion may include a metal oxide, and function(s) to prevent element(s) from migrating between the solar management layer and the dielectric layer upon heat treatment (HT) of the coated article. As a result, the coated article has improved color stability (and thus a lower .DELTA.E* value) upon HT. In certain example embodiments, a single target may be used to sputter the graded layer including the anti-migration layer portions and the more metallic central portion.  Coated articles herein may be used in the context of insulating glass (IG) window units, other architectural windows, vehicle windows, or the like.

Title: Policy-enabled contract-based management of network operational support systems
Inventor: DINI PETRE
IPC: H04L12/24
Filed: 2003-01-29
Abstract: A method and apparatus is disclosed for policy-enabled, contract-based management of network operational support systems. A policy kernel (110) utilizes multiple policy access points (140) for interfacing to dedicated policy management systems (130). The policy kernel (110) uses policy views (210), containing a set of required policies (260), to request the policy view from the policy management system (130). The policy view (210) initiates a contract (250) for regulating the selection and import of executable policies (235) to the policy kernel (110). The contract (250) applies running components to the executable policies (235) to enable them to run on the policy kernel (110) and resolves any potential conflicts by applying a set of policy dependency rules (258) to any executable policies (235) that are in variance with one another. The executable policies (235) are imported into the policy kernel (110) through the policy access point (140). The policy kernel (110) may then implement the requested policy view (210) by executing the executable policies (235) thus imported.

Title: Method and apparatus for reserving and releasing bandwidth over a cable network for packet-switched telephony connection
Inventor: STRATER JAY
IPC: H04M7/00
Filed: 2003-02-13
Abstract: A method is provided for allocating bandwidth over a cable network (117) to establish a packet switched telephony connection between two endpoints (1101, 175). The method begins by authorizing and reserving an allocation of bandwidth at the time of a call origination sufficient to establish a voice band data connection between the endpoints. Next, only a portion of the allocation of bandwidth is committed. This committed portion, which is sufficient to establish a compressed voice traffic connection between the endpoints, is a subset of the reserved allocation of bandwidth.  The reserved but uncommitted portion of the allocation of bandwidth is released so that it is available for another connection if at least one of the endpoints determines that the connection is to support voice traffic and not voice band data. This bandwidth portion may be released after a prescribed period of time has elapsed since the establishment of a full send/receive connection without the detection of voice band data.
