Patent EP-0817430-A3 (EP)
Inventor: PERES MAURICIO
IPC: H04Q11/04
Filed: 1997-06-25
Abstract: A method of controlling the supply of cells into an
asynchronous network, comprises the steps of storing
incoming bytes from multiple channels in respective channel
buffers, creating in memory a timing event wheel partitioned
into a plurality of sectors, of which one is active at any
time, and placing cell pointers in the sectors. The cell
pointers identify channel buffers and are distributed around
the wheel in accordance with a desired transmission
schedule. The wheel is stepwise advanced at a predetermined
rate, and the cell pointers in the active sector are scanned
at each advance of the wheel to identify the corresponding
channel buffers. The bytes from the identified channel
buffers are assembled into cells, which are forwarded for
transmission over the asynchronous network. These are then
multiplexed with VBR cells from another source.

Abstract: A postage evidencing system including a plurality of domains for
partitioning a population of postage meters according to an operating
characteristic, a data center, a postage meter in operative communication
with the data center and a printer in operative communication with the
postage meter. The postage meter is initialized to operate in a particular
domain while the printer is capable of operating in each of the plurality of
domains. To update or enable a domain in the printer, the postage meter
transmits an indication of the particular domain to the data center. Then, the
data center encrypts the indication and transmits the indication to the postage
meter which in turn forwards the encrypted indication to the printer. The
printer decrypts the encrypted indication and using the indication enables a
respective domain in the printer corresponding to the particular domain of the
postage meter. A method for updating domains in a postage evidencing
system is also provided.

Abstract: Es wir ein Verfahren zur Einspritzung von Kraftstoff in
Brennräume einer Brennkraftmaschine beschrieben, bei dem die
Gesamteinspritzmenge für die Brennkraftmaschine in eine
Haupteinspritzmenge und eine kleine Nacheinspritzmenge
aufgeteilt ist, welche Nacheinspritzmenge eng an das Ende
der Haupteinspritzmenge gekoppelt ist und mit dem selben
Kraftstoffdruck zur Einspritzung kommt, wie die
Haupteinspritzmenge. Das ergibt eine Senkung der Rußemission
bei sonst gleichen Betriebsparametern der
Brennkraftmaschine. Wegen der gegenseitigen Bindung von
Rußemission, NO x -Emission und spezifischem Verbrauch kann
die Nacheinspritzung bei gleich groß gehaltener Ruß- und
NO x -Emission auch zur Senkung des spezifischen Verbrauchs
der Brennkraftmaschine eingesetzt werden.

by separating out the background and deriving from a background having a
number of areas of hue and/or brightness different from adjacent areas
estimates of movement from one image to the next. The initial image is

Abstract: A VCSEL comprises separate optical and current guides that provide unique
forms of drive current and transverse mode confinement, respectively. In one
embodiment, the optical guide comprises of an intracavity high refractive index mesa
disposed transverse to the cavity resonator axis and a multi-layered dielectric (i.e., non-epitaxial)
mirror overlaying the mesa. In another embodiment, the current guide
comprises an annular first electrode which laterally surrounds the mesa but has an inside
diameter which is greater than that of an ion-implantation-defined current aperture. The
current guide causes current to flow laterally from the first electrode along a first path
segment which is essentially perpendicular to the resonator axis, then vertically from the
first segment along a second path segment essentially parallel to that axis, and finally
through the current aperture and the active region to a second electrode. The dielectric
mirror is deposited only after the formation of the guides in order to facilitate their
fabrication.

Abstract: The present invention provides an invisible digital watermarking technique that can serve the
two purposes of ownership verification and authentication, that can detect changes in pixel
values as well as image size, and that may be used in public key or alternatively, secret key
watermarking systems. The watermark insertion procedure computes a hash function and
then combines the output of the hashed function of a modified image block, a key and various
image parameters with a block of the watermark bitmap, resulting in a combined image
block. As a final step to create a watermarked image block, the combined image block is
inserted into the LSB of the modified image. The watermark extraction procedure takes the
watermarked image block and creates two different image blocks: a first image block with the
LSB's of the watermarked image block set to zero, and a second image block with the LSB's
of the watermarked image block extracted. The watermark extraction procedure uses the
hash function to calculate a digest of values, resulting in a hashed output. The hashed output
is combined with the second image block, preferably using an exclusive OR function. The
result of the combined hashed output with the second image block is a block of the extracted
watermark.
