Abstract: A telop recognition method is provided which, during a telop recognition operation, can correct an error, if any, in the recognition operation without loading dictionaries of unnecessary character type into memory and which, when the telop recognition is performed again, does not have to initiate the telop recognition operation from the start. The telop area extraction unit (102) and the character extraction unit (103) are operated to generate character image data, which is temporarily stored. The dictionary data selection unit (106) selects dictionary data corresponding to a program category. By using the character image data and the dictionary data, a character recognition operation is executed to produce candidate character strings. The telop information generation unit (110) processes the candidate character strings to generate telop information.

Abstract: The present invention relates generally to the field of biochemical laboratory instrumentation for different applications of measuring properties of samples on e.g. microtitration plates and corresponding sample supports. More particularly the invention relates to achieving more efficient illumination for activating a sample in measuring e.g. fluorescence. The object of the invention is achieved by providing an illumination arrangement in an optical measurement instrumentation which comprises at least one cavity (285) which has walls with reflective inner surfaces and which has an increasing width/cross-section (286,287) in the advancing direction of the light. The light beams for the excitation of samples are guided through the cavity. With such a cavity it is possible to collect the radiation of the light source efficiently and guide the light into the sample (202) with very small attenuation. The reflections from the cavity walls significantly improve the evenness of the radiation. This effect is can be further increased by providing an uneven inner surface of the cavity walls. With such a cavity it is also possible to collimate the light.

Abstract: A terminal having one or more domains to which access is controlled by the presence of a removable attachment, particularly a smart card such as a SIM card or UICC. Authorisation data or information relating to such data may be stored on the removable storage device and used as part of a verification test. If the verification test generates a positive verification result, the removable storage device provides an indication of whether the user is authorised to access the one or more domains. Access to the one or more domains is thus controlled such that domains can only be activated when a SIM or other removable storage device is present. The present invention also relates to a removable attachment for use with such a terminal, and a method of providing functions trusted by a third party in the terminal, particularly a terminal for use with a cellular or mobile telecommunications network.

Abstract: The process involves transmitting a threshold value with integrity information for a satellite instead of a broadcast signal-in-space monitoring accuracy (SISMA) value when a SISMA value exceeds the threshold value and another SISMA value is lower than the threshold value for the satellite. The integrity information to be transmitted is changed before the broadcast SISMA values for the satellite exceed the threshold value, where the latter SISMA value is increased for a particular satellite with the integrity information. An independent claim is also included for a system for performing integrity communication in a navigation satellite system.
