Abstract: A method regulates the admission control of, and requests for routing of, virtual circuits in a network by determining network resource requirements for the virtual circuits. In particular, the network resource requirements are based on a set of parameters used to control the flow of information from a communications device onto the virtual cirucit. The requirements for network resources typically include buffer space requirements in network nodes and bandwidth requirements in network links, and the parameter used to control the flow of information are those associated with an access regulator. The network resource determination is made for the case where lossless performance in the network is required and in the case where statistical multiplexing with limited loss is allowed. Both constant bit rate and variable bit rate information is considered.

Abstract: A two-way data communication device such as a data ready cellular telephone, a two-way pager, or a telephone communicates via a two-way data communication network with a server computer on a computer network that has an interface to the two-way data communication network, i.e, is coupled to the two-way data communication network. For example, the computer network can be a corporate wide area network, a corporate local area network, the Internet, or any combination of computer networks. The two-way data communication device utilizes a client module to transmit message including a resource selector chosen by the user to a server on a server computer on the computer network. The server processes the message and transmits a response over the two-way data communication network to the client module. The client module interprets the response and presents the response to the user via a structured user interface. Alternatively, the user transmits a request that directs the server to transmit the response to the request to another location or to another user.

Abstract: There is provided a composition comprising a unique polymeric compound that provides a soft, flexible product. There is also provided a unique polymeric tampon applicator that is soft and flexible. When used as a tampon applicator barrel, the barrel is more comfortable and has improved ease of insertion. The polymeric compound primarily comprises a thermoplastic resin and a block copolymer that exhibit unique load, energy and modulus of elasticity properties. The polymeric compound should also include a plasticizer and a compatibilizer/flow modifier, and may include a slip/mold release agent, an antioxidant, and even a pigment. There is also provided a method for making the polymeric compound that will be formed into a product, such as an applicator or applicator barrel in which all of the above ingredients, except for the thermoplastic resin, are combined and formed into soft pellets. The soft resin pellets are then dry blended with pellets of the thermoplastic resin. The mixture of the thermoplastic resin pellets and the soft resin pellets are then melted and injection molded into the desired shape. There is thus provided a method of making a soft, polymeric tampon applicator or tampon applicator barrel.

Abstract: A vehicle tyre (1) includes reinforcing cords (3,5,6) and different rubber components, e.g. bead filler strips (4), tread strips and carcass sidewalls (9). For tailoring the tyre to meet different demands of the tyre at low and high speeds at least one of the rubber components contains a magnetic rheological fluid whose stiffness can be varied in a magnetic field. In a process for manufacturing the tyre the magnetic rheological fluid is introduced into the rubber compound during extrusion by injecting through small channels before the nozzle outlet. A process for handling and building in a tyre component already filled with the fluid is claimed in which the fluid is prevented from running out of vulnerable points, e.g. cutting points, by subjecting the fluid to a magnetic field to create a stiffening effect. In a claimed method for increasing steering accuracy of the tyre at high speed without loss of ride comfort at lower speeds one or both bead filler strips(4) contain the fluid and at high speed a stronger magnetic field is built up than at low speed and the magnetic field lines at high speed are in a plane perpendicular to the hollow chambers containing the fluid. In a variation of this method the sidewalls(9) contain the fluid. In a further method for increasing steering accuracy and/or reducing tyre undulations at high speeds an additional magnetic field is set up by a fixed magnet close to a tyre component(4,7,9) containing the fluid and stiffens the component when it passes the magnet. Also claimed is a method for suppressing bending in the tyre tread without reducing comfort at low speeds in which the fluid is contained in the sidewalls(9) and/or in elastomer profiles at the edges of the breaker layers(6) and/or in a band(7) radially outside the breakers and/or in the tread and a stronger magnetic field is built up in the components(7,9) or elastomer profiles at high speed than at low speed.

Abstract: A case packer has a product-supplying mechanism for transporting packaged products sequentially to a product-aligning mechanism including a plurality of conveyors arranged longitudinally towards a packing unit for packing a container with these transported products. The aligning mechanism starts to move intermittently every time a product is delivered from the supplying mechanism so as to sequentially align them. The aligned products are thereafter moved in a continuous motion towards the packing unit. Each conveyor of the aligning mechanism is again caused to move in the same intermittent mode of motion every time the products aligned thereon are discharged therefrom.

Abstract: A master cylinder (12) includes a primary piston (19) and a
secondary piston (21) which are movable to provide fluid pressure to effect
wheel braking in a vehicle. In addition, the master cylinder includes an
emulator piston (25) which supplies conventional pedal feel and travel
characteristics when the primary and secondary pistons are substantially
immovable due to isolation of the master cylinder from the wheel brakes. The
emulator piston is movable against a selected amount of fluid pressure and
spring force while the primary piston remains stationary. The fluid force is
supplied by controlling the flow of fluid from behind the piston through a
flow restrictive orifice (87) to a conventional fluid reservoir (14) on the
master cylinder assembly. The master cylinder is operable to provide brake
actuation assist to an electric or electro-hydraulically controlled braking
system.

waves through a wave level adjuster 11; comparing the
adjusted pulse waves with a plurality of symptomatic waves
stored in a symptomatic wave storing memory 9 through a
comparator, and choosing the symptomatic wave corresponding
