Abstract: A method of encoding an audio signal is disclosed. The method comprises partitioning the audio signal into a first time block and a second time block. Next, a first time block first energy value and a first time block second energy value are calculated. Next, a second time block first energy value and a second time block second energy value are calculated. Next, the technique determines if an attack has occurred in the second time block by comparing the second time block first energy value and the second time block second energy value and also comparing the first time block and the second time block. Advantageously, the method identifies attacks such that the decoder can reproduce the attacks with little audible distortion and also affords the advantage of using long windows for portions of the audio signal that do not contain attacks.

Abstract: The foregoing problems of the prior art have been overcome by the cable of this invention. A fire retardant communications cable comprises a core which comprises at least one transmission media immediately surrounded by a protective insulation layer made of a fire-retardant thermoplastic material. More specifically, the fire-retardant thermoplastic material used as the insulation layer comprises a mixture of a first inorganic oxide constituent and a second inorganic oxide constituent. The first inorganic oxide constituent is characterized by melting when exposed to temperatures as low as about 350°C whereas the second inorganic oxide constituent begins to crystallize at about 650°C. The layer of fire retardant thermoplastic material is effective when said cable is exposed to temperatures in the range of about 350°C to 1000°C to form a crusty layer which insulates said core from heat energy and minimizes release of smoke and combustible gases. In other words, one embodiment of the present invention modifies the formulation of commonly-used insulation materials so as to provide superior resistance to flame spread and smoke evolution while also providing the necessary electrical performance to make it acceptable for use as the layer of material immediately adjacent the transmission media. 
     In an alternative embodiment of the present invention, two layers of thermoplastic material are used to protect each transmission media. In particular, a first layer of commonly used insulative material is applied immediately adjacent the transmission media with a second layer of enhanced insulative material coextruded thereon. In accordance with this embodiment, the second insulative layer has dispersed therein the mixture of inorganic oxides set forth above, and further described and claimed herein. The presence of the oxides in the second layer acts to significantly enhance the fire resistance of the cable without adversely affecting the operational performance of the cable.

Abstract: A ventricular tachycardia (VT) complex is distinguished
from a sinus tachycardia (ST) or a supraventricular tachycardia
(SVT). A template (700) based on morphology of a normal sinus
rhythm is collected. A test signal (710) is compared against
the template (700) to determine how closely the test and template
signals correspond based on morphology. The comparison is
done based on peak information in the template and the test
signal. A score is generated to indicate the degree of similarity
between the template and the test signal. The peak information
is extracted as follows. First, a group of three consecutive
peaks (210, 212, 214) having a largest cumulative peak
amplitude is located in the template (700) and in the test
(710) signal. The polarity, position and area of each peak
within the group is then determined. The area of each peak is
normalized. The polarities, positions and normalized areas represent
the peak information that is used for comparison.

Abstract: In a distributed system, a method and apparatus for
automatically checking objects according to a specification
which includes public contracts and private constraints. Public
contracts are obeyed by both client and server, while private
constraints are obeyed by either client or server, but for a
given private constraint, not by both. At each and every stage
of a client-to-server or server-to-client transaction or "call",
the objects or parameters related to call are automatically
checked to ensure a specification is met. A client-side stub on
the client automatically generates and executes checking code to
check both private client-side constraints and public contracts
on the client prior to network transfer to a server. The server
has a server-side skeleton which intercepts the call and
objects. The server-side skeleton performs checking by code
automatically generated to check the public contracts if any,
with client and any private server-side constraints. Once
checking is complete, the call is processed and a server
"return" is the result. The return object is then transferred
across the network to the client. The client-side stub then
performs automatic checking according to the specification of
the return object which may be different from the specification
checked for objects related to the call initially sent by the
client.
