Patent CA-2466191-A1 (CA)
Inventor: VASSILOVSKI DAN
IPC: H04L45/24
Filed: 2002-11-01
Abstract: An SIP server (18) in an IP-based infrastructure supporting wireless telephones determines whether, based on the destination address in a call request, the call is an intrasystem call or an intersystem call. For intrasystem calls the SIP server routes VOIP packets directly between the originating and destination devices. For intersystem calls, however, and in particular encrypted calls, instead of routing the VOIP packets through the public Internet, the SIP server instantiates a circuit-switched call using a local modem bank (22) connected to the PSTN (24). In this way, quality of service assurance is obtained and latency reduced.

Title: Suture anchor
Inventor: FALLIN WADE T
IPC: A61B17/04
Filed: 2002-10-17
Abstract: A suture anchor (12) includes a placement portion (76) frangably connected to an attachment portion (78). The attachment portion includes an outwardly projecting barb (90). During insertion of the suture anchor within a bore hole formed on a bone, the barb scores at least a portion of the bone bounding the bore hole. Once the suture anchor is disposed within the bore hole, a withdrawal force is applied to the suture anchor such that the attachment portion thereof rotates within the bore hole and disconnects from the placement portion. In an alternative embodiment, the suture anchor can be formed without the outwardly projecting barb.

Title: Method and apparatus for session release in a communication system
Inventor: HSU RAYMOND T
IPC: H04L29/06
Filed: 2003-02-03
Abstract: A method and apparatus for session release in a communication system supporting Internet Protocol (IP) communications. In one embodiment, when the MS has lost a bearer connection (i.e., PPP session), the notification is provided by a Packet Data Service Node (PDSN) 112 to the serving Session Control Manager (SCM) via IP multicast. If two PPP sessions are active for a given IP communication, and one PPP session is not lost, the PDSN associated with the active PPP session sends a correction message to ignore any notification message sent by the other PDSN. In an alternate embodiment, the Authentication Authorization Accounting (AAA) server uses start and stop accounting requests, received from PDSNs, to determine when to notify the serving SCM to terminate an IP communication.

Abstract: An integrated procedure training apparatus provides a three-dimensional environment that facilitates the training of systems and integrated procedures required to operate and maintain complex systems. The three-dimensional environment is created by arranging a plurality of touch-sensitive display surfaces in a spatial arrangement that is similar to a spatial arrangement of real control panels of the complex system. The training of the integrated procedures is enabled by the use of a full-scope simulation of the complex system. Courseware or other training aids can be used in conjunction with the system to improve learning absorption and retention and reduce training time and reliance on skilled instructors.

Title: Rotationally determinate, positionally ambiguous striped carpet tiles
Inventor: DANIEL SYDNEY D
IPC: A47G27/02
Filed: 2003-04-29
Abstract: A carpet web and a method of forming a carpet web having a striped pattern and color scheme that permits carpet tiles cut from the web to be installed without regard to relative tile positions and without visibly disrupting the pattern, but rather maintaining the appearance of a broadloom web. The web pattern includes parallel stripes having varying widths and longitudinal discontinuities. The stripes are formed with at least two colors or two shades of a color. The tiles are positionally ambiguous in that they need not be located on the floor in the same position they occupied in the web for the flooring installation to exhibit the desired uniform appearance. Instead, the tiles may be shuffled and laid in any side-by-side or top-to-bottom orientation (provided that uniform rotational orientation is maintained among the tiles) with respect to adjacent tiles without looking out of place to the ordinary viewer and without emphasizing the modularity of the flooring.

Title: Identity system for use in a computing environment
Inventor: CAMERON KIM
IPC: G06F17/00
Filed: 2004-07-29
Abstract: A system for identifying principals within a computing environment is disclosed. The system includes principal objects containing identity claims.  The principal objects are used by computer processes within the environment to perform tasks related to the association of principals to activated resource objects.  Exemplary principals include individuals, a group of individuals, organizations and computer modules and devices. Each identity claim uniquely identifies a specific principal within a particular scheme. To accomplish this, each identity claim includes an assertion that specifies an identification string unique to a principal within the associated scheme. Exemplary schemes for an individual include email accounts, telephone numbers, credit card account numbers and social security numbers. Thus, exemplary identification strings for an individual are specific email addresses, specific telephone numbers, etc. Exemplary schemes for a group of individuals and organizations include telephone numbers and web page addresses.  The system also determines whether two principal objects conflict, thereby resulting in an identity fault.
