Patent CA-2347106-A1 (CA)
Inventor: NABI GHULAM
IPC: F23G5/00
Filed: 2001-05-15
Abstract: Garbage material from household and other city sources is processed in a co-current gas solid processing set-up. The temperature of the material being processed is increased gradually with simultaneously increase in chemical potentials upto a temperature where all carbon is reacted, and metals not required in steel composition are melted. These melted metals are filtered out. Slag forming ingredients are melted to form liquid and separated from steel forming metals, which remain as solids. The reaction gas used is industrial grade O2 or air that may be enriched with oxygen. Energy and blown out material is recovered from gases coming out of a high temperature reactor. The exit gases from particles recovery set up are used as heat sources in gas cleaning system from chemical impurities where purified gases CO, H2 are obtained. These purified gases may contain variable percentage of N2. These gases may be used as alternative to the natural gases. CO, H2 may be changed to H2 and CO2. The H2 obtained may be used as high quality household fuel or used in the synthesis of ammonia. H2 may be further purified to produce cryogenic hydrogen for space industry. CO2 and N2 gases along with steam may be used in new type of green houses.  H2, N2 and CO2 gases may be used to produce urea. Remaining CO2 and N2 may be supplied as hot gases to the greenhouses. Excess steam available from plant will be used to produce electricity. Cu, Pb, Sn and other metallic will be recovered. The non-recovered metallic and metallic from various ashes will go with the slag material forming micronutrients fertilizer. The non-melted material will be high quality scrap. There is no direct use of water and there fore no water pollution, no gases discharge except some small portion of CO2 and N2. There is no sold residue therefore no environmental pollution. The introduction of all weather, composition control, temperature controlled greenhouses will be highly beneficial for the cold and hot climate regions. CO2 is used as insulating gas between double glass walls. A new process for sizing of steel articles, tires and automobile batteries is invented.

Title: Authorization and access control of software object residing in set-top terminals
Inventor: SAFADI REEM
IPC: G06F1/00
Filed: 2000-02-03
Abstract: A method for providing authentication, authorization and access control of software object residing in digital set-top terminals creates a fingerprint ("signature") for each software object, associates each fingerprint with a service tier, encodes each association and creates an association table containing the information and downloads the association table to the digital set-top terminal. In addition, the method utilizes an entitlement management message, sent to each set-top terminal, indicating what software objects the set-top terminal may utilize, and provides a system routine at the digital set-top terminal that is invoked whenever software object is about to be utilized.  The entitlement management message contains the access rights given to a particular set-top terminal, which must match the software object's access requirements for the software object to be utilized. The entitlement management message may also contain set-top terminal resource control access rights that a given software object may utilize. When the software object requires the utilization of a set-top resource, a second conditional access routine may be invoked to determine the authorization rights for using the resource. Measures to protect such means are also described. As such the method provides multiple system cable operators (MSO's) with additional capabilities to maintain secure control of features and applications running on their networks and within the associated set-top terminals.

IPC: B23K9/173
Filed: 2002-01-08
Abstract: A MIG welding gun has a diffuser with an external thread and a frusto-conical back ramp. A nozzle assembly includes an insert with a back ramp and a thread that mates with the diffuser thread. The threads of the diffuser and insert have respective ramps that mate. A single turn of the nozzle assembly on the diffuser causes simultaneous engagement of the insert and diffuser back ramps and of the insert and diffuser thread ramps. Such engagement centers the nozzle to be concentric with the diffuser and also produces a wedging action that retains the nozzle assembly on the diffuser until a relatively substantial reverse torque is applied to the nozzle assembly. The nozzle front end has a narrow annulus, which reduces the amount of radiant heat from the welding arc that reaches the nozzle.

Title: Distributed digital rule processor for single system image on a clustered network and method
Inventor: HART EDWARD F
IPC: G06F9/44
Filed: 2000-03-17
Abstract: A distributed digital rule processor to create a single system image (SSI) on a cluster of von Neumann processors. The rule processing engine has a group of digital rule nets each having their own local bindery (500) and local controllers (200) which are interconnected by a global bindery (400). Slave translators are interfaced to the global bindery (400) to receive rule calls from the rule nets and return statuses.  A compiler maps the typical source code instructions into groups of rules which are stored in the rule nets' storage area (100). The rules contain groups of input variables and output variables. The output variables of a calling rule become the input and data for the called rule.  Slave application processes on the von Neumann processors perform slave activities for the slave translators, as the rule nets are unable to manipulate data.

IPC: H04B1/7073
Filed: 2000-04-10
Abstract: L'invention concerne un dispositif de communication à accès multiple par différence de code (AMDC) qui reçoit une onde pilote et un signal de trafic. Le signal de trafic, une fois décodé (220), est recodé (302), entrelacé (304) et comparé (305) à un signal de trafic non décodé à retard (307). Le retard correspond à des retards de calcul. La comparaison des signaux de trafic recodés et non décodés représente une mesure des conditions de voie. On peut donc combiner (308) cette mesure avec une mesure de l'onde pilote pour obtenir une meilleure estimation des conditions de voie qu'il n'aurait été possible en utilisant uniquement l'onde pilote.

Title: Dispositif d'affichage d'images tridimensionnelles, procede d'affichage et programme associe
Inventor: KIM HAN-JOON
IPC: G06T17/00
Filed: 2000-06-28
Abstract: Le fait qu'une image tridimensionnelle soit affichée par un système informatique médical sans référence à aucun point de repère anatomique constitue un problème car les images ne peuvent être ensuite comparées les unes avec les autres par rapport à une même surface de référence et à un même axe de référence. Conformément à cette invention, une image tridimensionnelle est structurée et affichée en fonction de données d'images de tomographie multisection. Un point de repère anatomique de l'image tridimensionnelle affichée est spécifié, et une surface de référence est créée en fonction de ce point de repère. Lors de la création de cette surface de référence, une correction de position est effectuée et l'image tridimensionnelle est affichée par rapport à cette surface de référence. Ainsi, l'image tridimensionnelle affichée est une image qui est fonction de la surface de référence anatomique et de ce fait, l'image est à la fois tridimensionnelle et anatomique, et constitue de ce fait une image d'une bonne reproductibilité.
