Abstract: Electronic musical apparatus (EMA), e.g. an electronic musical
instrument, has a storage area for storing a unique ID; however, unique ID is
empty in the storage area in an initial condition, e.g. condition at the time of
shipment from a factory. Unique ID is issued by a Web server to the EMA
when a user having acquired the EMA accesses a predetermined Web site
having an ID issuing function, and the EMA stores the supplied unique ID in
the storage area. The Web server determines whether or not any unique ID
has already been issued to a given EMA having accessed the Web site, and, if
not yet issued, the Web server may automatically issue a unique ID.
Alternatively, the Web server may issue a unique ID when an ID issuance
request has been received from a user of the EMA. User registration operation
and unique ID issuance and registration operations may be carried out together
as a set of operations.

Abstract: An oil filter gasket includes a body and a flap extending inwardly from the
body away from a recess of an oil filter housing. The body provides a compression
fitting between the oil filter and a mounting structure. The flap also provides a
compression fitting between the oil filter and mounting structure. As oil pressure
within the oil filter increases, the flap is further forced into engagement with the
mounting structure thereby increasing the oil pressure that the oil filter may be
subjected to before leaking.

Title: Risk management
Inventor: TSALAKOPOULOS CHRIS
IPC: G06Q10/06
Filed: 2004-02-19
Abstract: A risk management process is provided that has steps of defining a risk by providing: (a) a descriptive title; (b) a risk impact value; and (c) a likelihood value. (a), (b), and (c) are then set as a first set of initial conditions for the risk. A node for the risk is then established with the first set of initial conditions associated therewith. Steps 1 and 2 are then repeated on a possible further risk. If the initial conditions obtained are not identical with the initial conditions of the node the descriptive titles are compared and if the descriptive titles are not identical, a further node is established with initial conditions determined for that possible further risk. If the descriptive titles are identical, both the impact values and the likelihood values are compared and if one of those impact or likelihood values is identical, the initial conditions of that possible further risk are associated with the risk node. If neither of the impact values and likelihood values is identical, then an additional risk node is established with the initial conditions for that risk as initially determined for that possible further risk. The established nodes permit identification of the risks, and the subsequent tracking of the risks.

Abstract: Cette invention se rapporte à un support de données non réinscriptible, qui permet de préserver l'état d'enregistrement des données du support de données non réinscriptible, à un procédé pour préserver l'état d'enregistrement des données d'un support de données non réinscriptible, à un support contenant un code lisible par ordinateur pour ledit support, et à un appareil d'enregistrement et/ou de reproduction prévu à cet effet. Dans ce procédé pour préserver l'état d'enregistrement des données d'un support de données non réinscriptible, les données sont d'abord enregistrées sur le support de données non réinscriptible. Puis, les données d'état d'enregistrement, représentant les zones occupées, sont produites et enregistrées dans une zone de gestion de défaut temporaire attribuée au support de données non réinscriptible. Une instruction de finalisation est ensuite reçue pour préserver l'état d'enregistrement des données du support de données. Enfin, en réponse à l'instruction de finalisation, des données prédéterminées sont enregistrées dans une zone de gestion de défaut temporaire pour empêcher tout enregistrement ultérieur de données sur le support de données non réinscriptible. Ainsi, l'état d'enregistrement des données du support de données non réinscriptible finalisé peut être préservé.
