Abstract: This invention relates to a method and apparatus for determining which bus should be used for transmitting data to another station of a dual queue, dual bus DQDB network. Initially, data is transmitted over both buses. As each station receives an entity of data, such as packets or cells, over one bus, each entity including the identification of a transmitting station, the receiving station updates its memory to record that entities of data to that transmitting station should be transmitted over the other bus. The bus selection record is audited when packets are received to confirm its accuracy.

Date Jan. 9, 1992.In order to facilitate the fastening of a length of material to the cold-rolled profile tube (1) of a canvas-blind tube, the wall of said profile tube has formed therein an essentially tangentially extending first recess by folding the wall of said profile tube first inwards onto itself and by bending it then back into an L-shape, the long leg portion (9) extending in parallel spaced relationship with said double-folded wall and the shorter L-leg portion (10) extending towards the outer surface of said profile tube (1) and delimiting the opening of said first recess. Furthermore, a second, radially extending recess is provided subsequent to said shorter L-leg portion (10) by bending the wall inwards in a U-shape. These recesses have inserted therein a strip of plastic material comprising a tongue, which extends into the first recess, and a foot portion, which follows said tongue and which extends into the second recess (11), the length of canvas-blind material being placed round said tongue. The length of canvas-blind material can thus be held by radially inserting the strip of plastic material into the canvas-blind tube, without there being any necessity of providing additional fastening means.

Abstract: A method for reducing noise in a reference frame of video information by determining the mean absolute difference,  MAD     o   , between each block in the reference frame and identically located blocks in adjacent frames. If  MAD     o    is < A, the block in an adjacent frame is held for averaging with the block in the reference frame, but if  MAD     o    for the block is > A, a search is made for a block in the adjacent frame that matches the block in the reference frame. This is labelled  MAD     min   . If  MAD     o    for the block in the adjacent frame is <  BMAD     min   , the matching block is not used in the average. If  MAD     o    is not <  BMAD     min   , the matching block can be used in the average, but preferably this is not done if  MAD     min    exceeds a value C. The values of A, B and C are determined by experience for the block size used.
