Abstract: A billing system for a telecommunications network uses a monitoring
software agent to monitor messages, indicative of individual calls on the
network, passing between a service switching point and a service control point.
Call record information is extracted and is stored in a local call record database.
Information from each call record database is then passed on to a central
database, using updating mobile agents, the central database being accessible to
such agents and report building agents which can extract billing information as
requested by an operator. By monitoring the messages as they pass, the system
can provide real time billing information without needing to poll the switch at
the service switching point.

Abstract: The variable damper uses fluid flow through an orifice to provide the damping action. The flow characteristics of the damper are adjusted by controlling operation of a solenoid that alters the opening of the orifices through which the fluid passes. The orifices (8) are closed by a valve (10). The valve is formed by a stack comprising a plate (46) with an elastic closer (50) and a number of supple plates (45) that vary in number as a function the flexibility required. The fluid flow is divided (F1,F2) as a function of the displacement of the sliding part of the damper inside the fixed part.

Abstract: A shortcut routing method is used in an Internet Protocol network over
a network. This network, including a plurality of switch-routers and optionally a
plurality of routers interconnected by links, is adapted to carry a point-to-multipoint
connection between a sending host and a plurality of potential
receiving hosts. Each of these receiving hosts is coupled to one of the plurality of
routers and/or switch-routers. 
     A first data-pocket of an Internet Protocol packet-flow is broadcasted
from the sending host towards all potential receiving hosts and wherein each
potential receiving host of these potential receiving hosts may send, upon
reception of said first data-packet, a prune-message in direction of said sending
host to notify that this potential receiving host does not wish to receive this
Internet Protocol packet-flow. This method further includes the step of delaying
the set-up of the shortcut path over a predetermined time-interval, which is
dependent on the period of time the prune-message needs to reach the plurality
of routers and/or switch-routers in the direction of the sending host, which step is
followed by the actual setting up of the shortcut path between the sending host
and the receiving hosts, those are the potential hosts which didn't send a prune
message.

Abstract: La structure interface permettant de réaliser une connexion entre des connecteurs coaxiaux (316) et une unité plaquette (BU) est basée sur l'idée suivante: les connecteurs coaxiaux, qui prennent beaucoup de place, sont sortis de la carte de l'unité enfichable et la connexion est réalisée de façon que l'on puisse l'établir facilement entre les connecteurs et la carte et la supprimer facilement quand on enlève le panneau avant. Pour cela, on utilise une plaquette à circuit imprimé auxiliaire spéciale (312), sur laquelle on fixe les connecteurs coaxiaux. Un trajet de câble part de chaque connecteur disposé sur la plaquette du circuit et aboutit à une barre de connecteur, soudée sur le bord de la plaquette, sur laquelle les broches (313) de connecteur font saillie. Sur l'unité plaquette (BU) de l'unité enfichable est soudée une barre (32, 322) de connecteur, qui contient les contre-connecteurs destinés aux connecteurs de la plaquette auxiliaire. Les connecteurs de cette barre sont connectés aux trajets de câbles disposés sur l'unité plaquette (BU) qui amènent les signaux aux circuits intégrés montés sur la plaquette. Quand on enlève le panneau avant de l'unité enfichable en le tirant vers la surface de cette dernière, la plaquette à circuit imprimé auxiliaire fixée sur le panneau avant suit avec ses connecteurs coaxiaux, et les broches (313) de connecteur de la barre quittent leurs contre-connecteurs fixés sur l'unité plaquette (BU) de l'unité enfichable. De même, quand on fixe le panneau avant, on pousse les broches dans leurs contre-connecteurs, ce qui crée une connexion électrique.

Abstract: A speech recognition system has vocabulary word models having for each word model state both a discrete probability distribution function and a continuous probability distribution function. Word models are initially aligned with an input utterance using the discrete probability distribution functions, and an initial matching performed. From well scoring word models, a ranked scoring of those models is generated using the respective continuous probability distribution functions. After each utterance, preselected continuous probability distribution function parameters are discriminatively adjusted to increase the difference in scoring between the best scoring and the next ranking models.In the event a user subsequently corrects a prior recognition event by selecting a different word model from that generated by the recognition system, a re-adjustment of the continuous probability distribution function parameters is performed by adjusting the current state of the parameters opposite to the adjustment performed with the original recognition event, and adjusting the current parameters to that which would have been performed if the user correction associated word had been the best scoring model.

Abstract: The invention relates to a brush-hair seal for sealing a rotor against an enclosure having a bore for the rotor to extend therethrough and comprising a front plate and a bearing plate affixed thereto. A multitude of brush hair is maintained between the front plate and the bearing plate in such a way that the hair free ends emerge above an inner edge of the bearing plate, thus touching a rotor surface. The bearing plate inner edge is not very far from the surface, and the bearing plate prevents said hair from completely bending back. Said bearing plate (8) is designed in such a way that the hair (9) must take their bearing by their free ends (21) on a bearing segment (20), while the resting length extends at a distance from the bearing plate (8).

Abstract: A multi-channel Automatic Retransmission Query (ARQ) method transmits data packets from a source to a destination over a communication link that is subdivided into a number of channels. A network using the multi-channel ARQ method sequentially multiplexes the data packets at the source and transmits them over corresponding channels. The network applies a stop-and-wait ARQ method on each one of the channels and determines whether the destination has positively acknowledged a previously transmitted data packet. If not, the network retransmits only the data packets that are not positively acknowledged.
