communication circuit is connected with an image
storing apparatus by local radio communication with
the local communication circuit. The radio
communication apparatus receives data from the image
storing apparatus, and starts a mail program for
transferring data through a public network according
to the received data. The radio communication
apparatus transmits image data received from the
image storing apparatus to a server through the
public network by means of the mail program.
Moreover, the radio communication apparatus stores
the image data received from the image storing
apparatus in response to a request from the image

Abstract: The present invention sets forth a network-centric service distribution architecture and method that
integrates a wireless access system/service in the residence, SOHO, business or public environment
through the use of a local broadband network, such as a Residential-Business Broadband Network
(RBN), to the service provider's broadband transport network and to a service provider's broadband
packet network that facilitates end-to-end packet telecommunication services. The Media Terminal
Adapter is coupled via the RBN to the access port(s) and via the service provider's broadband
transport network to the service provider's broadband packet network. The access port is coupled
to the Media Terminal Adapter via either a RBN (e.g., a Local Area Network - LAN) or simply via
a traditional POTS line interface. The access port receives and sends wireless signals to a plurality
of RBN devices, allowing the user to control theses devices remotely from the residence, business,
SOHO or public environments. The integration of an RBN to a service provider's broadband packet
network allows a subscriber to communicate at home and at the office with one communication
device anytime anywhere. A service provider can deploy services in an integrated voice, data and
multimedia environment cost effectively based on one broadband packet network.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un composant de poids léger (composant sans fonction de fenêtrage) répondant à un pointage par création d'un logiciel de système de fenêtrage pseudo-natif pour chaque composant de poids léger. Ce logiciel pseudo-natif ne présente aucune géométrie associée avec celui-ci et n'exécute pas de rendu du composant, étant donné que le rendu de composants de poids léger est exécuté dans Java. Le logiciel pseudo-natif réside sur la liste du système de fenêtrage natif de logiciels et occupe une surface occupée, entraînant ainsi la fixation, par le système de fenêtrage natif, d'une structure native avec chaque composant, fournissant ainsi au système de fenêtrage une accessibilité aux composants de poids léger. Etant donné que les logiciels pseudo-natifs sont sur la liste de logiciels de base, une navigation de pointage destinée aux composants de poids léger devient logique avec des logiciels de système de fenêtrage de base, rendant les composants de poids léger visibles pour tous les événements de navigation de pointage.

Abstract: A mobile system, such as a wireless phone, communicates its location or other position information, such as pseudoranges, to a server system and optionally sends permission criteria defining which other mobile systems are allowed to access its location. In the case where the mobile system does not provide its location, the server determines the location using the other position information provided (e.g. pseudoranges for satellites in view of the mobile system). The server system sends the location to other mobile systems in accordance with the permission criteria, with or without a request from another mobile system for the location. If no permission criteria has been sent by the mobile system, the server system queries the mobile system for the permission criteria in response to a request for the location. If no permission criteria is sent by the mobile system, or if the permission criteria sent denies the request, the server system can, alternately, not reply to the request or reply with an error message. The permission criteria can include additional access limitations such as dates or times during which access is permitted or denied, and geographic areas in which access is permitted or denied.

Abstract: A device and a method for controlling a plurality of compressors
(1-3) arranged for jointly producing a pressurized fluid, wherein
each of the compressors comprises a valve (7-9), the position of
the valve determining the size of the flow of the fluid and the
compressor having at least three different states: a shut-off
state in which the compressor has zero voltage and the valve is
in a closed position, an unloaded state in which the compressor
is under a voltage and the valve is in a closed position, and a
loaded state in which the compressor is under a voltage and the
valve is an at least partly open position. Information about each
of the compressors regarding the power that the compressor
consumes in the loaded and the unloaded states and which flow
or flows that the compressor can deliver are stored. Information
is received regarding the pressure of the fluid (P 1 -P 4 ) and current
valve positions for the compressors are received. The current
need of fluid is estimated, based on the current valve positions
of the compressors, the flow that the compressor can deliver
and the pressure in the fluid. The valve positions of the
compressors are adjusted with regard to the current need of
fluid and the energy consumption of the compressors in a number
of possible sets of valve positions, which meet the current
need of fluid.

Abstract: An automatic priming system (20) for internal combustion engines (22), which is
operable at engine cranking speeds and which is automatically disabled at engine running
speeds. The automatic priming system is driven by pressure fluctuations within the engine
crankcase (24) which are caused by reciprocation of the piston (30). At engine cranking
speeds, fluid communication between the engine crankcase and a chamber (58) is
substantially equalized, such that positive pressure pulses from the crankcase air space pass
from the chamber through a check valve (62) to the carburetor (46) for priming. At engine
running speeds, communication between the crankcase air space and the chamber is restricted
such that the pressure within the chamber is below atmospheric, positive pressure pulses are
not present within the chamber, and the priming function is automatically disabled.
