Title: System and method for automatically initiating and dynamically establishing secure internet connections between a fire-walled server and a fire-walled client
Inventor: SALMEN HELMUT
IPC: H04L29/08
Filed: 2005-04-12
Abstract: A system and method for automatically and dynamically initiating and establishing secure connections between a Server and a Client using a session control server (SCS). Both the Server and the Client are connected to an untrusted network (such as the Internet) through a Network Address Translator or Translation (NAT) muter or a firewall. The SCS, independently trusted by both the Server and the Client, brokers the required connection parameters to establish a secure connection between the Server and the Client. The system and method does not require any user configuration on the Client and eliminates the need for the Server to accept explicit connection requests or packets from the Client, thereby allowing the Server firewall to always remain closed to all inbound traffic.

Title: Methods and apparatus for efficient vpn server interface, address allocation, and signaling with a local addressing domain
Inventor: O'NEILL ALAN O'NEILL
IPC: H04L12/28
Filed: 2005-08-11
Abstract: The present invention relates to communications systems and, more particularly, to methods and apparatus for efficient address delegation and/or assignment and/or signaling in a virtual communications network, e.g., a network supporting virtual private networks (VPNs) and one or more addressing domains. The methods are well suited for systems such as mobile communications systems, where the number of mobile nodes in each of a plurality of visited domains can change on a relatively rapid time scale, so rendering static address delegation from the home to each visited domain highly inefficient.  Address delegation may be undertaken in advance of address assignment requests from a visiting mobile node, or address delegation may be triggered by the address assignment request. Information update messages keep the home domain aware of the assignment status of its delegated addresses and can specifically trigger further delegations so that a number of unassigned delegated addresses is maintained.

Movement of the flexible neck can be used to control positioning of a tool extending through the flexible neck.
Patent CA-2584217-A1 (CA)
Inventor: BAKER ROBIN J
IPC: F23G7/08
Filed: 2005-10-28
Abstract: The present invention provides a system and method for injecting natural gas in an RTO. The RTO may be, for example, a known type that has a rotary distributor, a center section divided into pie-shaped segments above the rotary distributor, a heat exchanger section above the center section, and a combustion chamber above the heat exchanger. According to an aspect of the invention, the system introduces gas into segments of the center section in a sequenced manner via cycling on/off control valves. In a particular embodiment, the natural gas is injected at a specific location of a respective segment within the center section that is past the rotary distributor seals and directly under the bottom of the heat exchanger bed. According to the injection sequence, the injection of natural gas into the segment commences when the segment begins to receive inlet waste gas streams, and injection ceases before the flow through the sector changes or stops. In an embodiment, each injection cycle may last a predetermined time to preferably achieve a constant flow of natural gas in the intake stream of process air as the rotary distributor delivers such flow sequentially among the segments.

Title: Method and apparatus for flow control of nh3
Inventor: CESSAC KEVIN J
IPC: A01C23/00
Filed: 1998-05-29
Abstract: The present invention provides an apparatus and method for accurately controlling the amount of NH3 to be applied to a field by measuring the NH3 flow rate without condensing or cooling the NH3. The system includes a control station 12 on the vehicle with a tachometer 12A or a GPS system for providing a vehicle speed signal to a control panel 13. The control panel includes a toggle switch 17 for adjusting the opening or closing of a valve 52 in the flow line to regulate the flow through the system, although the control panel alternatively may automatically control the valve 52. The vehicle transports a tank 20 containing liquid NH3 and a tool bar 30 for distributing the NH3 to the soil.  After flowing through the flow meter 40, 60, 130, the NH3 is conducted to the soil through a series of hoses, fittings, a distributor, and tubing. The flow meter transmits a signal to the control panel, which is converted to a corrected flow rate signal in response to a fixed value vaporization correction factor. The temperature of the NH3 is also measured to correct for density variations. An improved variable area meter 60,130 uses a hall effect sensor 72 and a magnet 68 mounted on a rotatable vane shaft 70 to overcome problems with prior flow meters. The improved meter 60, 130 is ideally suited for measuring the fluid flow of a low temperature vaporization liquid, such as anhydrous ammonia, propane and butane.

Title: Method and apparatus for coordinating seamless channel switching in a mesh network
Inventor: RUDOLF MARIAN
IPC: G06F11/00
Filed: 2006-04-05
Abstract: A mesh network including at least one channel master (CM) and a plurality of mesh points (MPs). The CM sends a channel change intention message to at least one of the MPs indicating the CM's intention to change from a first channel to a second channel. Upon reception of the channel change intention message, the at least one MP determines whether to switch from the first channel to the second channel. The at least one MP sends a channel change response message to the CM. The CM then determines whether to change from the first channel to the second channel based on the channel change response message. The channel change intention message may indicate a change of mode, a change of bandwidth or a change of a number of channels. The channel change intention message may indicate the timing of the channel change.
