Abstract: A noise reduction method for a baseband television picture signal, such as luminance or chrominance, received via a noise-introducing path comprises the steps of: 
   averaging the picture signal over a predetermined time interval related to frame rate of the picture signal, such as over a number of successive frames, to produce an averaged function of the picture signal wherein recurrent stationary picture elements the picture signal are cancelled, and wherein aperiodic events in the picture signal, including noise, are put out as an average, 
   passing the average through an amplitude function generator for putting out a non-linear function of the average, the non-linear function favoring low amplitude levels and disfavoring high amplitude levels in the picture signal, thereby to provide a noise reduction cancellation signal, and 
   combining the noise reduction cancellation signal with the picture signal, thereby to reduce the noise therein. 
     Apparatus for implementing the method, including time domaim comb filter apparatus for separating luminance and chrominance, is also described.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method and a system for processing access service requests in data processing systems, such as telephone exchanges. In the method, only a predetermined number of access service requests are allowed for service simultaneously, and the remaining access service requests are placed in incoming order into an access buffer (21, 31, 41) to wait for service. The invention is characterized in that when a new access service request arrives in the access buffer (21, 31, 41), one or more access service requests which have waited the longest time in the queue are rejected from the access buffer, if the estimated sum of queueing and processing times of the access service requests assessed according to the calculated average processing time of access service requests exceeds a predetermined limit value.
