Abstract: By forming a flange portion 16a1 protruding inward in
the radial direction at an upper end portion 16a of a voice
coil 16, a coiling sectional shape of the voice coil 16 is set
to a L-shape. And, the upper end portion 16a of this voice
coil 16 is bonded and fixed to a central flat portion 12b of
a diaphragm 12. Hereby, by only increasing slightly the weight
of the usual voice coil having an I-shaped coiling section,
the large bonding area can be obtained between the voice coil
16 and the diaphragm 12, so that separation of the voice coil
16 can be prevented. Further, since other portions of the voice
coil 16 than the upper end portion 16a thereof have the usual
coil thickness, it is not necessary to expand the width of a
cylindrical magnetic gap G in a magnetic circuit unit 18, whereby
it is prevented that electroacoustic conversion efficiency of
a speaker 10 lowers.

Abstract: A method for setting up and managing secure data/audio/video links with secure key exchanges, authentication and authorization is described. An embodiment of the invention enables establishment of a secure link with limited privileges using the machine identifier of a trusted machine. This is particularly useful if the user of the machine does not have a user identifying information suitable for authentication. Furthermore, the presentation of a default user identifying information by a user advantageously initiates intervention by a system administrator instead of a blanket denial. This decentralized procedure allows new users access to the network without having to physically access a centralized facility to present their credentials. Another embodiment of the invention enables a remote user to connect to a secure network with limited privileges.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un système et un appareil de contrôle et de distribution efficaces et fiables de fichiers de données ou de portions de fichiers, d'applications ou d'autres objets de données dans des réseaux distribués à grande échelle. Un logiciel frontal unique de gestion de contenu permet des contrôles efficaces destinés à lancer une distribution des contenus de données numériques à des groupes sélectionnés parmi un grand nombre de serveurs informatiques éloignés. Des protocoles de la couche de transport interagissent avec des unités de commande de distribution en vue de déterminer de manière automatique une séquence de distribution optimisée du type arbre à des leaders de groupes sélectionnés par des dispositifs de réseau au niveau de chaque site éloigné. Un transfert fiable stockage-et-transmission vers des blocs est obtenu au moyen d'un protocole unicast  dans les trois séquences ordonnées. Une fois les messages et le contenu des commandes arrivés chez tous les leaders de groupes participant, des protocoles multicast hybrides locaux les distribuent de manière efficace et fiable aux noeuds finaux afin qu'ils soient interprétés et exécutés. Chaque leader de groupe retourne un accusé de réception positif au gestionnaire du contenu et le contenu mis à jour dans chaque dispositif éloigné passe, de manière autonome, 'en direct' lorsque le changement de contenu est effectué au niveau local.
