IPC: G06F12/02
Filed: 1999-02-12
Granted: 2006-01-24
Abstract: A method and apparatus are provided for transferring a resource from the cache of one database server to the cache of another database server without first writing the resource to disk. When a database server (Requestor) desires to modify a resource, the Requestor asks for the current version of the resource. The database server that has the current version (Holder) directly ships the current version to the Requestor. Upon shipping the version, the Holder loses permission to modify the resource, but continues to retain the resource in memory. When the retained version of the resource, or a later version thereof, is written to disk, the Holder can discard the retained version of the resource. Otherwise, the Holder does not discard the retained version.  Using this technique, single-server failures are recovered without having to merge the recovery logs of the various database servers that had access to the resource.

Title: Method of establishing the trustworthiness level of a participant in a communication connection
Inventor: HILD STEFAN G
IPC: H04Q7/38
Filed: 1998-11-23
Granted: 2005-02-01
Abstract: A method of establishing a trustworthiness level of a participant in a communication connection between a first communication partner and a second communication partner is proposed whereby the communication behavior is adapted to the established trustworthiness level. The participant is equipped with a trustworthiness certificate and a therefrom separated securely stored participant private key. The first communication partner receives the trustworthiness certificate from the participant wherefrom the trustworthiness level is derived and established. The first communication partner tests whether the trustworthiness certificate belongs to the participant by using the participant private key. In case the trustworthiness certificate is confirmed by the test to belong to the participant, the first communication partner communicates the established trustworthiness level to the second communication partner. Then, at least one parameter of the communication behavior is chosen in dependence of the established trustworthiness level.

Abstract: A network prevents unauthorized users from gaining access to confidential information. The network has various workstations (14) and servers (16) connected by a common medium (20) and through a router (22) to the Internet (30). The network has two major components, a Network Security Center (NSC) and security network interface cards or devices (5). The NSC is an administrative workstation through which the network security officer manages the network as a whole as well as the individual security devices. The security devices are interposed between each of the workstations, including the NSC, and the common medium and operate at a network layer (layer 3) of the protocol hierarchy. The network allows trusted users to access outside information, including the Internet, while stopping outside attackers at their point of entry. At the same time, the network limits an unauthorized insider to information defined in their particular security profile. The user may select which virtual network to access at any given time. The result is trusted access to multiple secure Virtual Private Networks (VPN), all from a single desktop machine.

Title: Thermal and reinforced refrigerator door
Inventor: DANG MUC
IPC: F25D23/02
Filed: 2001-06-14
Granted: 2006-12-12
Abstract: A refrigerator door has reinforcing corner brackets that structurally complete the corners of the door. The corner brackets are located at the door corners adjacent vertical and horizontal side walls of the outer door skin of the door. At least one reinforcing member such as a sheet or rectangular collar, for example, or preferably reinforcing cross brace members are connected to the corner brackets. To achieve this connection and restrict heat transfer through the door and or adjacent the inner liner or in-turned flange of the outer door skin, the corner brackets have connecting tab portions that extend into the cavity of the door away from one of the side walls of the door and spaced from the other side wall of the door. The connecting tab portion is also spaced from the outer skin sheet and the inner door liner. As a result, the reinforcing member or members extend substantially across the width of the door spaced from the outer door skin wall and the inner door liner and are connected to the connecting bracket which is connected in heat transfer relation with side walls, horizontal or vertical, of the door. This reduces heat losses from the refrigerator cabinet conducted through the reinforcing member or members of the door.

Title: Tissue disposal bag
Inventor: MOROZ MARCIA JANE
IPC: B65D33/14
Filed: 2001-08-17
Granted: 2004-06-15
Abstract: A tissue disposal bag has a front wall and a back wall, and an elongate vertical centre area of the front wall for disposal of tissue into the bag. The front wall and the back wall of the bag are joined together to form a bag cavity between them. The opening is designed so that, upon application of a minimal force to a portion of the front wall where the opening is located, the front wall separates along the length of the opening, allowing for disposal of tissue through the opening and into the trash bag, which then retains its original shape. This allows for hygienic disposal of the tissue into the bag since the user does not have to close the bag manually.
