Abstract: This invention is of a resin composition including an additive of one or
more organic peroxide thermal imitators to cationic photoinitiators, that are
sensitized with alpha-hydroxy-ketones, which composition provides a self-propagating
thermal curing reaction first activated by a short duration of surface
ultraviolet radiation. The thermal reaction is non-directional, thus eliminating the
line of sight limitation of current radiation curing processes. Complete curing
can be achieved of the composition in a very short time; often after only a few
minutes or less. The activation period can be provided by only a few seconds of
ultraviolet light using a wide variety of commercial ultraviolet light sources.

Abstract: A usage-limit is associated with each copy of copy-protected material. A conforming playback device determines how much usage has been made of the copy, and only plays the copy-protected material if the usage is within the associated usage-limit of the copy. In a preferred embodiment of this invention, the providing source of the copy contains a total-usage-measure that is allocated among each of the provided copies of the copy-protected material, thereby allowing for more than one copy of the copy-protected material to be produced, or 'checked-out' from the providing source. When a copy of the copy-protected material is subsequently returned, or 'checked-in' to the providing source, the usage allocation associated with this copy is returned to the total-usage-value. In this manner, if a particular copy of the copy-protected material is lost, damaged, or misplaced, the loss of value to the purchaser is merely a reduction in the available total-usage. In a preferred embodiment, the parameters associated with the usage-limit are communicated via the copy of the material in a secure manner, so that an illicit provider cannot alter these parameters. Similarly, in a preferred embodiment, the parameters associated with the usage-limit are securely bound to the copy-protected material, so that an illicit provider cannot substitute illicit material for the copied material. Other security measures, such as an encryption of the copy-protected material, watermarking, ticketing, and the like, are also compatible with these aforementioned techniques, and are included in a preferred embodiment of this invention.

Abstract: In a cellular telecommunications network, a method and system allowing a Message Center (MC 61) to receive an indication of the periodic broadcast SMS capability of co-operating Mobile Switching Centers (MSC 12) when a periodic broadcast SMS is initiated. According to the invention, when a periodic broadcast SMS request is sent from an MC to one MSC for broadcast to the Mobile Stations (MS 69), the MSC detects its own capability (58) to handle the periodic broadcast SMS request based upon the current load (81, 83) on its processing resources. A decision (85) is taken whether or not the MSC will handle on its own the periodic broadcast SMS request, and an indication of the MSC's capability is sent back to the MC. If the MSC accepts to handle the periodic broadcast SMS request on its own, the MSC records (59) the message and periodically broadcasts (63, 65, 67) it to the destination MSs. If not, the MC periodically sends a regular broadcast SMS request (70, 73, 75) along with an instruction for delivery to the MSC, which in turn forwards (71, 73, 75) the SMS body message to the destination MSs.
