Abstract: A computer-implemented system and method provides authoritative answers, developed within a community-based question answering service to users of a general network information search. This community-based question answering service receives a question from a first user, and receives answers from community members regarding this question. The authority of the answer is then determined by members of the community and if the authority is of an acceptable level, the question together with its authoritative answer is added to a database which includes all authoritatively answered questions. The answering service has an interface that exposes the contents of this database to queries from users of the network who are not necessarily members of the answering service. In one embodiment, results from queries of the community-based database are integrated with queries of a second database of general network information. An improved general information search service is also provided that includes query results from the authoritative answers generated by the community-based answering service.

Abstract: The receiver portion of a UWB wireless device is altered by replacing analog-to-digital circuitry with a simple energy detection circuit. In embodiments of the invention, the coding methodology of a transmitter is altered to support the simplified receiver configuration. For example, instead of coding the data to be sent in the phase of the UWB signal, the data is encoded in a binary fashion in discrete frequency subbands of the UWB signal. Although this may reduce the usable bandwidth of the channel, it also decreases the complexity and power consumption of UWB devices. In another embodiment of the invention, a UWB device is able to select a transmission mode (BPSK or Energy Coding) based on its environment. Moreover, in a further embodiment of the invention, receiving devices may switch between coding modes based on the capabilities of a remote transmitter and/or a peer receiver.

Abstract: In order to further reduce variation in the maximum limited load by a seat belt load limiting mechanism composed of a torsion bar (13) and a shearing member (24), when a spool (9) rotates in the belt withdrawing direction (6) relative to a locking base (18), EA action only by shear deformation of the shearing member (24) is first conducted so that the entire EA load is only the EA load by the shearing member (24). After the EA load by the shearing member (24) becomes the maximum EA load (Fo), the seat belt (4) is withdrawn by a predetermined amount and the EA action by torsional deformation of the torsion bar (13) is conducted in addition to the EA action by the shearing member (24). Since the EA action only by the shearing member (24) is first conducted, it is possible to reduce variation in the maximum limited load during the shear deformation of the shearing member (24).
