Abstract: Cette invention concerne une méthode permettant à un ordinateur hôte d'exploiter sélectivement une pluralité de fichiers image capturés par une caméra numérique, chaque dossier image renfermant au moins une image numérique. Ces fichiers image sont stockés dans la mémoire de la caméra numérique. La mémoire de la caméra numérique est reliée à l'ordinateur hôte de telle sorte que ce dernier peut localiser la pluralité de fichiers image capturés. L'ordinateur hôte identifie la mémoire de la caméra numérique comme s'il s'agissait d'une mémoire supplémentaire sur le disque dur donnant accès aux fichiers image capturés. On accède ensuite aux dossiers images capturés, qui sont transférés sélectivement de la caméra numérique à l'ordinateur hôte.

Abstract: Described is a transmission system (10) comprising a transmitter (12) for transmitting an input signal to a receiver (14) via a transmission channel (16). The transmitter (12) comprises a splitter (20) for splitting up the input signal into at least first and second frequency band signals. The transmitter (12) further comprises a first encoder (22) for encoding the first frequency band signal into a first encoded frequency band signal and a second encoder (24) for encoding the second frequency band signal into a second encoded frequency band signal. The transmitter (12) is arranged for transmitting the first and second encoded frequency band signals via the transmission channel (16) to the receiver (14). The receiver (14) comprises a first decoder (26) for decoding the first encoded frequency band signal into a first decoded frequency band signal and a second decoder (28) for decoding the second encoded frequency band signal into a second decoded frequency band signal. The receiver (14) further comprises a combiner (30) for combining the first and second decoded frequency band signals into an output signal and reconstruction means (48) for reconstructing the second decoded frequency band signal when the second decoded frequency band signal is not available. The transmission system (10) is characterized in that the reconstruction means (48) are arranged for reconstructing the second decoded frequency band signal from the first decoded frequency band signal. In this way, errors occurring in the receipt or decoding of the second frequency band signal can be concealed by reconstructing the missing part(s) on the basis of the first frequency band signal which was received and decoded correctly. Preferably, this reconstruction is done by means of bandwidth extension.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing extruded, cellulosic continuous shaped bodies from an extrusion solution containing cellulose, water and tertiary amino-oxide. In order to improve the textile properties of the extruded continuous shaped bodies with regard to the prior art, the invention provides that the continuous shaped body (5) is conveyed, with essentially no tensile stress, on a conveying device (11) between an extrusion nozzle opening and a take-off unit (24). To this end, the speed of conveyance of the interconnected conveying device (11) is preferably less than the extrusion rate and less than the take-off rate of the take-off unit (24). By employing these measures, the textile properties such as loop strength and tendency to fibrillate can be considerably improved.

Abstract: In a mobile radio communications system, first radio resources are allocated to a first mobile radio communication. The term "radio resources" relates to one or more resources used to support a mobile radio communication and may include, for example, radio bandwidth, transmit power, signal and data processing hardware and software resources, radio transceiving resources, etc. A second group of radio resources is allocated to a second mobile radio communication. When a block of user information needs to be transmitted that requires an additional amount of radio resources, the first and second mobile radio communications are interrupted or their service levels are reduced for a brief time period. At least part of the block of information is transmitted during that time period using at least some of the first and second radio resources allocated for the first and second mobile radio communications. After that time period, transmission of the first and second mobile radio communications is resumed at full (or partial) service levels.

Abstract: The invention is essentially characterized in that two different schema branch codes are used, whereby one of the two is utilized far more frequently and, as a consequence, effects a compression. The schema branch code and position code are combined, and the bit length for the schema branch code is transmitted therewith. This results in simplifying the search function in such a manner that the first part, alone, specifies the type of the referenced element and that an improvement in the extensibility is achieved based on a schema version number to be transmitted and on firmly prescribed extension strategies that are also familiar to the decoder.

Abstract: The mechanism is applicable to a surgical tool which has a jaw ( 57 ) pivotably mounted to a distal end of a longitudinally extending support ( 58 ). The jaw is operated by action on a rearwardly facing cam follower ( 52, 53 ) by a lobe ( 51 ) on the distal end of an actuating tube ( 50 ). Rotation of the actuating tube ( 50 ) causes pivoting of the jaw ( 57 ) into and out of operative relationship with another jaw member ( 21 ) of the tool. The mechanism may be applied to any manipulative or gripping type of surgical implement, but is particularly applicable to ultrasonic tools adapted for cutting and/or coagulating.
