Abstract: A method and apparatus for reducing the effects of copy protection in a
video signal is disclosed. The technique generally utilizes a particular pulse
position shifting of AGC, normal sync and/or pseudo sync pulses to increase
the separation between the pulses. Various embodiments are disclosed to
provide the selective position separation between the sync/pseudo sync and
AGC pulses. The gap is produced by position separation only of the trailing
edge of the sync or pseudo sync pulses and the leading edge of the respective
AGC pulses and not by narrowing any of the pulses. Where the gap is of
sufficient duration, say of 0.5 µseconds to 2.0 µseconds, the AGC of a video
recorder does not respond to the pseudo sync and AGC pulses of the copy
protection signal.

Abstract: Two extruded shape members (100,120) to be subjected to friction stir
welding have joining ends butted against each other to form a
joining surface (140) of the joint portion. A first extruded shape (100)
member has a protrusion (110) projecting from an upper surface of a
flat panel portion toward a direction from which a friction stir
welding tool is to be inserted. A side surface of the protrusion
is connected to the upper surface of the flat panel portion via
a small arc (R 2 ) and a large arc (R 3 ). A second extruded shape member (120)
is formed substantially in the same manner. The friction stir
welding tool (50) has a small diameter portion formed to the end thereof,
and carries out friction stir welding with the center of the
small diameter portion positioned to correspond to the joining
surface (140). A joint portion of the welded members has a flat upper
surface, and on both sides thereof are formed weld flashes (B 1 ). The
weld flashes (B 1 ) are cut and removed to finish the joint portion.
A connecting portion is connected via an arc (R 3 ) having a large
curvature, and so stress concentration will not occur. With
the plate thickness at the joint portion increased and the plate
thickness of the flat panel portion minimized, the weight of
the entire railway car structural body can be reduced.

Abstract: The present invention refers to a call server (PS1; PS2) for establishing a bi-directional peer-to-peer communication link between at least two user agents (UA1, UA2) within a call-based environment by means of signaling messages (100) to be exchanged between the at least two user agents (UA1, UA2). The communication link is established across a network via at least one network address translation device (NAT1, NAT2), which is adapted for translating private identifiers of the user agents (UA1, UA2) into corresponding public identifiers usable in the network and vice versa. In order to allow build-up of the communication-link by means of signaling messages (100) via network address translation devices (NAT1, NAT2), it is suggested that the call servers (PS1; PS2) have an additional functionality for exploring translation information for the at least one network address translation device (NAT1, NAT2). This is done by exchanging explore messages between the call servers (PS1, PS2) via the at least one network address translation device (NAT1, NAT2). The explore messages are received by the call servers (PS1, PS2) and the transformation performed on the content of the explore messages by the network address translation device (NAT1, NAT2) is analyzed and the translation information is derived therefrom.

Abstract: The invention relates to a variable-length error-correcting (VLEC) code technique, in which the main steps are : defining all the needed parameters, generating a code having a fixed length L1, storing in a set W thus obtained all the possible L1-tuples distant of the minimum diverging distance d[min] from the codewords (one extra-bit being affixed at the end of all words if the new set W thus obtained is not empty), deleting all words of W that do not satisfy a distance criterion with all codewords, and verifying that all words of the final set W satisfy another distance criterion. According to the invention, it is proposed to realize the codeword deletion not anymore only in the last obtained groupe of the code, but in the group of a given length value Ls to which the algorithm will skip back to in the codeword deletion operation, which allows to go back very quickly to smaller lengths and skip many steps of the previous methods.

Abstract: Dans un procédé de l'invention destiné à appliquer une couche électrogalvanique sur des articles métalliques, par une séquence de phases de traitement chimique ou électrochimique, chaque phase de traitement comprend les étapes consistant à: a) introduire le tambour contenant les articles dans une centrifugeuse; b) injecter le premier liquide de traitement chimique dans la centrifugeuse; c) effectuer le traitement; d) drainer le premier liquide de traitement chimique de la centrifugeuse; e) effectuer une centrifugation des articles pour récupérer ledit liquide; f) injecter de l'eau de lavage dans la centrifugeuse; g) effectuer le lavage; h) drainer l'eau de lavage de la centrifugeuse; i) effectuer une centrifugation des articles pour récupérer l'eau; j) transférer le tambour sur un autre poste ou répéter les étapes précédentes avec un autre liquide de traitement chimique. Le fait d'effectuer le lavage après la phase de traitement chimique dans le poste où le traitement a été effectué, permet de réduire considérablement le nombre de postes. De plus, la centrifugation subséquente à chaque traitement ou à chaque lavage permet de récupérer les liquides, ce qui permet de réduire la consommation de ces liquides, ainsi que d'éviter les problèmes de liquide résiduel d'un poste à un autre, ce qui permet de réduire la pollution de l'environnement. L'invention concerne une installation constituant un mode de réalisation de procédé. Cette installation comprend une série de postes alignés (A), dotée d'un poste de chargement automatique, à l'entrée, et d'un poste de déchargement automatique, à la sortie, dans lesquels les articles à traiter sont renfermés dans des tambours cylindriques perforés (D) ouverts au niveau de leur partie supérieure, qui sont automatiquement déplacés d'un poste à un autre au moyen de chariots (C) circulant sur des rails (B) s'étendant au-dessus des postes, tout le long de l'installation. L'utilisation de tambours ouverts (D), au lieu de barils classiques fermés par une porte, permet d'effectuer de manière complètement automatique le chargement et le déchargement des articles dans les postes d'extrémité d'installation, ce qui permet de supprimer les risques sanitaires dont pourraient souffrir les opérateurs, lors d'un tel procédé.
