Patent CA-2422398-A1 (CA)
Inventor: FROLOV GENNADIY
IPC: G01F1/00
Filed: 2000-09-01
Abstract: A gas flow receiver has a non-symmetrical-flow-inducing diaphragm mounted in a flow tube and causes non-symmetrical flow in the flow tube with an accentuated higher pressure near an upstream orifice than would be sensed in a corresponding cross-section of the flow tube and an accentuated lower pressure near a downstream orifice. A gas flowmeter using thermoanemometer-type transducers receiving gas flow from the upstream orifice is made immune to vibration or acceleration by arranging a pair of the transducers parallel to one another with the gas flow passing serially through them, but in opposite directions. The transducer output is amplified by a noisy amplifier which injects a secondary signal prior to digital conversion using an ADC. The digital signal is averaged over a sampling period to obtain a sample having a level of precision greater than a minimum quantization value of the ADC.

Title: Superresolution in periodic data storage media
Inventor: KRAEMER DARREN
IPC: G11B7/00
Filed: 2001-12-14
Abstract: This invention provides a method of acquisition of binary information that h as been stored physically in a periodic storage medium. The method, referred to  as matrix-method deconvolution (MMD), is useful for use with optical storage  media using an optical addressing system that reads and writes binary information in a periodic array of nano-particles. With this MMD method, the  density of existing memory systems can be boosted to between 10 and 100 Terabytes of data per cubic centimeter. This matrix-method deconvolution method compensates for the effects of the optical addressing system's point spread function. Prior knowledge of a system's point spread function and int er memory-center spacing is used.

Title: Grade of service and fairness policy for bandwidth reservation system
Inventor: AMALFITANO CARLO
IPC: H04L12/28
Filed: 2001-02-08
Abstract: A scheme for assigning priority levels to users based upon a history of their request for access to the resources. If a user has, over a historical period of time, made fewer demands than a stated amount, that user is given a higher priority than a user who has made greater use of the resources than their stated amount. Thus, users making the heaviest demand on the available resources are allocated fewer resources despite their demand, whereas users that make less demands for the resources are granted more of the resources they request. An additional feature of an access allocation scheme according to the present invention is to reserve at least some resources for the users at the lowest priority levels. Thus, even users being assigned to a lowest priority queue will be granted at least some access once in a while. A third feature in connection with the present invention is to use the time of continuous transfer as a threshold to drop a presently assigned priority. For example, when a user at a particular priority level has made continuous use of resources for a predetermined time, that user is reassigned to the next lowest priority level and its resources are taken away. The user is then required to vie again for access to resources at this lower priority level.
