Abstract: The method involves feeding a further set of sheet metal bands (60) in the same or a parallel band plane from a second set of supply rollers (28,22) after producing a first rod mesh roll. The bands are fed essentially opposite to the direction of motion of the first bands through a fitting zone (56), fitted with rods (52) by the same machine as the first mesh and rolled in a second set of roller stations (40,36). After manufacture of the second mesh roll the unrolling of the bands from the first set commences. An Independent claim is also included for a machine for implementing the method.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé et un dispositif qui permettent à un serveur d'accès au réseau (220), associé à un commutateur de télécommunication (142), d'acheminer les appels entrants uniquement aux dispositifs (158) effectivement connectés à Internet. Une série de dispositifs (158), les RPG-I, reformatent les données entrantes provenant des abonnés (205) de façon à les présenter selon le protocole Internet désiré. A l'origine, la topologie du réseau prévue est enregistrée dans une mémoire (505) en vue d'une comparaison ultérieure. Durant l'opération, chaque RPG-I (158) tente de détecter la présence de tous les autres RPG-I prévus (158, 510). Si la présence d'un autre RPG-I (158) n'est pas détectée durant une période seuil prédéterminée (515, 520, 525), une alarme est déclenchée (530). Les alarmes d'erreur sont transmises à une logique d'application (700) du commutateur (142), de façon que ce dernier évite de connecter un appel d'abonné (205) à un RPG-I inapte au fonctionnement (158, 535). Une alarme peut également être transmise à un terminal (630) de l'opérateur du réseau.

Abstract: Data for transmission may be convolutionally encoded and punctured prior to transmission. The invention relates to a method and apparatus for decoding such data. In accordance with the invention, a table of error metrics is prepared when a given group (Gt) of n bits is received at a particular time (t). The error metrics (Mti) are calculated for comparisons of the n bits received with each possible permutation (Pi) of n bits. These error metrics (Mti) are placed in the metric table. Next a look-up table (Tt) is consulted which lists each state change (Sj) which the encoder could have undergone at the particular time (t) together with the permutation (Pi) of bits which would have been produced by the encoder for that state change. The look-up table (Tt) is particular to the puncturing scheme which the encoder uses at the particular time (t). The metric table is then used to add to the look-up table (Tt) the error metric (Mti) appropriate to each state change (Si) in the table (Tt). These error metrics are then used to update the cumulative metric of the decoder.

Abstract: The present invention is a biometric recognition method and system for identifying humans and animals with acoustic scanning techniques. The invention is based upon transmitting acoustic energy through an external accessible surface to non-visible internal tissue having a unique distinguishing characteristic. A master representative pattern of the unique distinguishing characteristic is produced by the interaction of an acoustic energy beam with discontinuities and inhomogeneities within the non-visible internal tissue. The master representative pattern is used for reference and compared to a current representative pattern formed upon each attempted reentry into the system.

Abstract: A metal or metal alloy article is cast using an investment casting mold where the mold facecoat, and perhaps one or more of the mold backup layers, comprises an imaging agent distributed substantially uniformly throughout in amounts sufficient for imaging inclusions. The facecoat preferably comprises an intimate mixture of a refractory material and the imaging agent. Intimate mixtures can be produced in a number of ways, but a currently preferred method is to cocalcine the refractory material, such as yttria, with the imaging agent, such as gadolinia. The facecoat also can comprise plural mold-forming materials and/or plural imaging agents. The difference between the linear attenuation coefficient of the article and the linear attenuation coefficient of the imaging agent should be sufficient to allow imaging of the inclusion throughout the article. The metal or metal alloy article is then analyzed for inclusions by N-ray analysis. The method also can include the step of analyzing the metal or metal alloy by X-ray analysis. The imaging agent, typically a metal oxide or salt, comprises a material selected from the group consisting of boron, neodymium, samarium, europium, gadolinium, dysprosium, holmium, erbium, ytterbium, lutetium, iridium, physical mixtures thereof and chemical mixtures thereof.
