Patent CA-2349795-A1 (CA)
Inventor: FIELD STEPHEN
IPC: B29C65/78
Filed: 2001-06-07
Abstract: A fenestration sealed frame insulating glazing panel suitable for use in windows, doors, etc. is an integrated unit wherein the glazing sheets are secured directly to the panel frame, rather than what has been practiced in the prior art namely the fabrication of a sealed double glazing panel which is subsequently installed into a separate window or door frame.      By careful selection of the material of the integrated frame, and the sealants and adhesive compounds employed, the coefficient of expansion of the frame can be closely matched to that of the glass sheets thus minimizing stress from this source. The frame members are of relatively light construction, and special corner keys and friction welding techniques are employed to ensure that the assembled frame has adequate strength in the corner regions thereof.

Title: Network resource allocation methods and systems
Inventor: LEE BYOUNG-JOON
IPC: H04L12/721
Filed: 2001-07-31
Abstract: Methods and components are provided which ensure both the improved use of network resources and adequate performance of best effort (BE) traffic by intelligently distributing the BE traffic demands at connection level with corresponding scaling weights, and without reserving bandwidth. A weighted sum of the best effort (BE) class connections (or LSPs in MPLS context) in a link is used as a path selection criterion, where each BE connection is weighted by its service volume. Path selection for a requested BE service volume is performed by creating a virtual topology in which all links in a network have weighted BE metrics updated to include the effects of the requested BE service volume, and identifying a best path through the virtual topology taking into account the weighted BE metrics.

Title: Independent distributed database system
Inventor: SUTTER HERBERT P
IPC: G06F17/30
Filed: 2000-03-13
Abstract: An independent distributed database system comprising a plurality of sites wherein all users at all sites work off-line with local data.  All application transactions are against the local database only, and every site stores "all and only" the data it needs. On-line transactions occur only in the background, including a periodical "synch" between sites that transmits any changes to data of interest to that site. If the background operations are interrupted or the network is temporarily unavailable, the user does no see new changes made at other sites until the data link is available again, but is otherwise unaffected. It is a feature that no site acts as a "server" for any other site. Some sites may store more data or have more users than others, but all sites are logically peers.
