Abstract: Methods and systems for providing a virtual network are disclosed. At least one layer of abstraction is created between network service applications and conventional network protocols by inserting an adaptive dispatcher between applications and network transport services on each machine in a network. The message protocol in the virtual network is extensible, allowing application programs to create new headers within any message as needed. The adaptive dispatcher contains handlers that route and dispatch messages within the virtual network based on arbitrary content within each message, including any combination of headers and/or data content. Each device on the virtual network has a virtual address to which messages are directed, allowing devices to move within the network without reconfiguring routing tables. Handlers may be automatically created when an event meeting predefined criteria occurs, including the non-occurrence of a condition, making the virtual network self-healing and adaptive to reconfiguration.

Abstract: The invention provides a book (10) containing a three dimensional model assembly (12) made
from a plurality of model components (18a-18c) attached to respective pages (14a-14k) in the book. The
model can be a human body or anything desired. When the book (10) is closed, the
model components (18a-18c) combine to form a completely assembled model assembly (12) that is
thinner than the book (10). Thus, the book (10) can lie flat on either its front or back cover on
a flat surface. When the book (10) is open, and as a reader turns each page, the model
components (18a-18c) attached to the respective page separate from the model assembly (12)
revealing other components that remain combined to form a partially assembled
model assembly (12). The components can be fixedly or hingedly attached to respective
pages with bars, flaps or both. If hingedly attached, the model components (18a-18c) can be
separated from the model assembly (12) without turning a respective page (14a-14k).

Abstract: The invention is in the area of distributed system and database security. The invention relates to a method and an arrangement for increasing the level of trust between a master and a replica database by allowing the master database to perform an "unpredictable" audit of the replica database whenever deemed appropriate by the master database. The master database may for example define and generate an audit application and send it to at least one replica database using push synchronization and force the replica database to perform the audit application. The master database may also prepare expected results of the audit of the replica database and store them for later verification. After auditing the replica database may synchronize the results of the audit back to the master database for verification. The information flow between the master and replica databases is advantageously encrypted in a secure manner.

Abstract: A new and improved intraoral sensor for use in a filmless radiography system is
disclosed. The sensor is configured to fit comfortably and close to a target area in an
intraoral cavity. By providing a comfortable relative to the target area, the sensor is
ergonomically improved, in terms of its comfort and feel to a dental patient. Whereas
prior sensors had housings that were generally rectangular and flat (particularly in cross
section), the sensor of the present invention has a predetermined curvature in any plane
through the sensor. This makes the sensor more comfortable for a patient in comparison
to the prior sensors. In addition, the configuration of the sensor is designed to allow the
sensor to be placed closer to a target area in an oral cavity than prior sensors (i.e. closer to
target teeth, gum, etc). Moreover, the sensor is configured so that it can easily be located
in a correct position relative to the target area, and when located correctly to properly
position its sensing structure for receiving radiant energy These features are believed to
reduce refractive error in the image received by the sensor, thereby improving the image
data transmitted by the sensor. Still further, the preferred configuration of the sensor is
relatively thin, which also contributes to the improved ergonomics of the sensor, and
enables the sensor to get closer to the target area of an oral cavity, thereby improving the
image data transmitted by the sensor.

Abstract: A device-sharing system easily shares devices in a network environment. When a device management server 100 receives a provide-service request, it identifies, based on service information, the network device 210 connected to the home gateway 200 and the network device 210 linked thereto to provide a service as service-related devices, and reads and returns service information for the service-related devices. When the gateway 200 receives the service information in reply to the provide-service request sent to the administration server 100, it displays a service list based on the received service information. When a service is selected from the displayed service list, the gateway relays communication between the device 210 connected to the gateway 200 and the identified service-related device based on the device-to-device communication information contained in the received service information for the selected service. <IMAGE>
