Abstract: A control system (100) is disclosed for an agricultural implement (40), such as an agricultural sprayer, used to dispense a product to the ground wherein the dispensing units (10) for the product are provided with control valves (14) that can reduce the flow rate of product through selected dispensing units (10) to zero. By controlling the rate of flow through the dispensing units (10), overlap of the application of the product to the ground can be substantially eliminated. In alternative embodiments of the invention, the control system (100) can receive data from a remote source, such as a central controller (57) or another implement (40) operating in the field, to define where the product needs to be applied to the ground. The application of the product can also be controlled through or in conjunction with a prescription map. Preferably, each dispensing unit (10) is provided with a control valve (11) operable associated with the control system (100) so that each dispensing unit (10) can be independently controlled to provide a variable flow rate of the product to the ground. <IMAGE>

Abstract: An electronic device such as a mobile telephone is provided with a reader for reading data from a physical data carrier. Physical data carriers are incorporated into accessories of the device, for example a telephone carrying case. The act of inserting the telephone into the case causes the reader to read data from the data carrier and the data is used to implement required device settings of the electronic device. The data carrier may be a bar code, RF tag or contact tag. By providing a number of carrying cases each with its own data carrier, merely exchanging cases initiates a number of associated device settings to be selected. Each case may be associated with a particular environment or user context allowing the user to alter the behavior of the device to suit context merely by interchanging carrying case. Data carrier may also be provided in other accessories such as car-telephone kits and battery chargers to alter device behavior accordingly. Device settings include those which govern the type of information relayed to the user when the device receives information from data delivery services.

Abstract: An energy-beam-curable thermal-realeasable pressure sensitive adhesive sheet has, on at least one side of a base material, an energy-beam-curable viscoelastic layer and a thermo-expandable pressure-sensitive adhesive layer containing thermo-expandable microspheres stacked in this order. The energy-beam-curable viscoelastic layer is, for example, composed of a composition of an organic viscoelastic body and an energy-beam-curable compound or an energy-beam-curable resin. The energy-beam-curable viscoelastic layer has a thickness of about 5 to 300 νm or may be not greater than the maximum particle size of the thermo-expandable microspheres. The energy-beam-curable thermal-releasable pressure-sensitive adhesive layer according to the invention has adhesion enough to withstand a carrying step of an adherend, causes neither winding up of the adhesive nor chipping upon cutting and facilitates peeling and collection of cut pieces after cutting.

Abstract: A method, system, or computer program product is presented for cross-domain, single-sign-on, authentication functionality. The methodology uses an introductory authentication token to introduce an already authenticated user from one domain to a new domain. This token is passed from one domain to the other domain using HTTP-redirection. This token is protected by encryption with a cryptographic key shared only between the two domain in a secure manner such that an external user cannot generate a counterfeit introductory token. An introductory token is further protected by enabling it with a limited lifetime so that an unauthorized user would not be able to use or reuse the introductory token within the token s lifetime. After a user has been introduced to a new security domain, then all of the user's resource requests are authorized by the new domain.

Abstract: A method for controlling a wiper motor of a wiper device for a motor vehicle windshield. A control unit implements the inventive method and a wiper device for a motor vehicle windshield. The control unit controls an electric motor which powers a wiper blade on a windshield sweeping between two end-of-travel zones. In each end-of-travel zone, there is a software end-of-travel stop which is moved by a predetermined value after each passage on the software stop, the latter always remaining in its test zone, thereby providing self-adaptation of the sweeping limits in time. The invention also enables the detection of the presence of obstacles on the wiper blade path.
