Abstract: The novelty consists in an industrial process based on the utilisation of cyclic explosions, in a solid stage, of an oxidising component mixed with high granulometry aluminium to obtain micro- and nano-dust of aluminium oxide which purity exceeds 99.7%, essencially in the form of alpha crystalline.The process is competitive because of its capacity to transform granulated aluminum of over 150 micra into aluminium oxide with a granulometry under 5 micra.The starting system of the direct and repetitive cycle is based on a high electric current discharge over an explosive metallic bridge. This discharge creates a fast vaporisation (in hundreds of nanoseconds) and generates a partially ionised gas (metallic plasma) which iniciates the explosive compound.

Abstract: An architecture for an extensible real-time collaboration system is provided. The architecture presents a unified application program interface for writing application programs that use communications protocols. The architecture has activity objects, endpoint objects, and multiple media stacks. These objects may use various communications protocols, such as Session Initiation Protocol or Real-Time Transport Protocol to send and receive messages. The activity objects, endpoint objects, and multiple media stacks may each have one or more APIs that an application developer can use to access or provide collaboration-related functionality. These objects map the API to the underlying implementation provided by other objects. Using the activity objects enables a developer to provide less application logic than would otherwise be necessary to provide complex collaboration services.
