Abstract: The present invention relates to a communications system for making multimedia calls. The system comprises two multimedia terminals and communication means for making a multimedia call over a shared communications network, including a firewall through which the multimedia call must pass, and which restricts certain types of communication. Each terminal has a number of logical communication ports for the multimedia call, including at least one dynamically assigned port. In the course of setting up the multimedia call, at least one of the terminals is adapted to send a request to the other of the terminals to open up one or more of the dynamic ports in the other terminal. The system includes a proxy server between the terminals that acts for each terminal as a proxy for the other terminal during the course of the call. The proxy server has logical communication ports for communication with the terminals including one or more pre-assigned ports. The firewall is configured not to restrict communication between one or both terminals and the pre-assigned port(s) of the proxy server. The proxy server is configured to receive and forward the request(s) to open up said dynamic port(s) via one of its pre-assigned ports.

Abstract: A method of fabricating a thermosetting matrix, fiber reinforced composite structure (12) wherein a stack of fiber reinforced thermosetting plies (10,14,16,) are assembled; an ultrasonic horn (30) is engaged with a top surface of the upper most ply, oriented at an acute angle with respect to the top surface (42), and energized to induce a shear wave (44) in the plies to heat the plies. The horn is moved along the upper most ply to consolidate the plies and the energy level applied to the horn is sufficient to reduce the viscosity of the thermost resin to the point where the plies can be debulked but not enough to fully cross-link the resin so that another ply can still be fully cross-linked to the uppermost ply. Pressure is applied to the plies as the horn moves to debulk the plies.

Abstract: Heat resistant stainless steel may be treated in a low oxidizing atmosphere in a heat/soak-heat/soak sequence to deplete its surface of Ni and Cr which tend to catalyze coking of hydrocarbons in contact with the surface of the stainless steel, and enrich it with elements which are inert to coke formation. Parts made of stainless steel, such as furnace tubes or coils, treated in accordance with the present invention when used have a significantly reduced rate of catalytic coking.

Abstract: The invention relates to a cover for large-volume refuse containers, particularly for front discharge system containers. The cover is comprised of a number of cover parts, which are joined to one another in an articulated manner, whereby the rear cover part is pivotally mounted on the refuse container by means of hinges, and the pivotal range is limited by a catching device. The aim of the invention is to ensure the storage of refuse or valuable materials both when placing them into the large refuse container as well as when emptying the same, and to eliminate the drawbacks associated with the prior art. To this end, the invention provides that the rear part of the cover fastened to the hinges comprises, starting from the hinge area, an overlapping width of the cover that at least overlaps the container frame and terminates outside of the overlapping in sides, which are each perpendicular to the cover, in the form of an enclosure, and said sides extend up to the vicinity of an articulated connection to the front cover parts. Particularly during a lifting and tipping of a cover of the aforementioned type on a front discharge system container, the advantageous results can be recognized due to the fact that, in the emptying position, the refuse or valuable material can no longer get beyond control but falls into the refuse collection vehicle while being confined between both sides.

Abstract: A system (10) used with a virtual device (50) or transfers information to a companion device (80), and includes two optical systems OS1 (20), OS2 (60). In a structured-light embodiment, OS1 (20) emits a fan beam plane (30) of optical energy parallel to and above the virtual device (50). When a user object (110) penetrates the beam plane of interest, OS2 (60) registers the event. Triangulation methods can locate the virtual contact, and transfer user-intended information to the companion system (80, 90). In a non-structured light embodiment, OS1 (20) is preferably a digital camera whose filed of view defines the plane of interest, which is illuminated by an active source of optical energy. Preferably the active source, OS1 (20), and OS2 (60) operate synchronously to reduce effects of ambient light. A non-structured passive light embodiment is smaller except the source of optical energy is ambient light. A substraction technique preferably enhances the signal/noise ratio. The companion device (80) may in fact house the present invention.

Abstract: The invention relates to the use of a polyolefin film as a medium to be written or printed on, according to which oxygen-containing groups are attached to one or both faces of the film surface by surface treatment. The polyolefin film is then highly surface-polarized by subsequently electrostatically charging it. Film thickness and surface weight and the electrostatic adhesive force produced are controlled by the degree of surface polarization in such a manner that the film, at least when the treated face is placed on a clean, dry and planar floatglass surface, will adhere to said surface indefinitely.

Abstract: A system and method for activating a subscriber identification module (SIM) based mobile device in a PCS/ANSI type wireless network. The method comprises pre-programming the SIM card of the mobile device with temporary activation identifiers, such as an international mobile station identity (IMSI) and/or a mobile identification number (MIN), and a temporary electronic serial number. The temporary electronic serial number, rather than the mobile device actual electronic serial number, is used to identify the mobile device during registration and activation. The network identifies the temporary electronic serial number associated with the SIM vendor and invokes an over-the-air activation procedure especially for the SIM card mobile devices. A SIM-over-the-air-activation processor is notified to perform the activation for that mobile device on the PCS wireless network. Authentication of the mobile device may be bypassed and the mobile device is instructed to transmit its actual electronic serial number for future registrations. Once the activation process is completed, the temporary activation identifiers are overwritten.
