Patent CA-2440943-A1 (CA)
Inventor: HEIDER ALEXANDER
IPC: G06F1/14
Filed: 2002-03-11
Abstract: The invention relates to a synchronous, clocked communication system for example a distributed automation system, the stations of which can be arbitrary automation components and are coupled to one another via a data network (1) for the purpose of mutual data exchange. In this arrangement, all possible bus systems such as, e.g. field bus, professional field -bus, Ethernet, industrial Ethernet etc. are conceivable as the data network (1) of the communication system.  One station of this communication system is designated as timing generator and ensures the distribution and maintenance of the communication clock used to all stations and by all stations. The timing generator can also introduce a relative clock (9) in the entire communication system at all stations via the same mechanism. This station is thus also the master of the relative clock (9) or, respectively, the applicable relative time (16). All stations of the communication system are, therefore, continuously synchronized to the relative clock (9), which is applicable throughout this system, with the valid relative time (16) and, therefore have the same understanding of time at any time. This distinctly improves or even makes possible, respectively, the implementation of applicative sequences, synchronization of events occurring simultaneously, accuracy in time during the detection of events or, respectively, switching of outputs.

Abstract: A computerized system and method for structuring risk management (102, 210) and assist a financial institution quantify financial, legal, regulatory and reputational risk associated with opening accounts related to management of financial assets and investments and facilitate analysis and quantification of risk (104, 105, 210). An automated account opening risk management system receives information (312) quantifying factors relating to financial, legal, regulatory and/or reputational risk. The information is utilized to generate a risk quotient or other rating based upon a weighting algorithm applied to th e criteria. The risk quotient is indicative of risk associated with an account (312, 313, 314). The quotient can be monitored on account opening, periodically or during a transaction. A log or other stored history can be created to help mitigate adverse effects relating to a problematic account b y demonstrating to regulatory bodies, shareholders, news media and other interested parties that corporate governance is being addressed through tangible risk management processes (400, 501).

Filed: 2002-05-24
Abstract: La présente invention se rapporte de manière générale à un logiciel informatique, et de manière plus spécifique à un procédé et à un système permettant de rendre des logiciels informatiques résistants aux altérations et au désossage. Le terme <= altération >= désigne la modification d'un logiciel informatique d'une manière contraire aux volontés de son concepteur, et correspond à une technique différente des techniques d'occultation, qui ne modifient pas les données sous-jacentes ou le flux de commande d'un programme. Pour schématiser, le procédé selon l'invention consiste à analyser l'efficacité de diverses techniques de codage par mesure du nombre de codages possibles correspondant à un univers codé donné. Cette analyse a permis d'élaborer un certain nombre de nouvelles techniques de codage de flux de données, parmi lesquelles figurent des techniques de codage mixte alternatif (une combinaison de codage de nombre linéaire et résiduel) et de codage polynomial.

Abstract: L'invention concerne des films et articles de nanotubes ainsi que leurs procédés de fabrication. Un article conducteur comporte un ensemble de segments de nanotubes dans lequel lesdits segments sont en contact avec d'autres segments de nanotubes pour définir une pluralité de chemins conducteurs le long de l'article. Les segments de nanotubes peuvent être des nanotubes de carbone à paroi simple ou à plusieurs parois. Les divers segments, qui peuvent être de longueurs différentes, peuvent comporter des segments qui sont moins longs que l'article. Les articles ainsi formés peuvent être déposés sur des substrats, et peuvent former un réseau électrique de nanotubes à l'intérieur dudit article. Des articles conducteurs peuvent être fabriqués sur un substrat par formation sur ce dernier d'une structure de nanotubes, et par définition d'un motif dans la structure au sein de laquelle le motif correspond à l'article conducteur. On peut former la structure de nanotubes en développant sur le substrat ladite structure au moyen d'un catalyseur, par exemple, qui est un catalyseur en phase gazeuse ou un catalyseur en phase gazeuse métallique. On peut former la structure de nanotubes en déposant sur le substrat une solution de nanotubes suspendus. La solution déposée peut être filée de façon à créer un revêtement par centrifugation de ladite solution. On peut également la déposer en immergeant le substrat dans la solution. La structure de nanotubes est formée par pulvérisation d'un aérosol présentant des nanotubes sur une surface du substrat.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device for sensing the presence of the distal end of a source wire in a reference position within a guidance channel of an afterloading apparatus, said afterloading apparatus being used for positioning an energy emitting source fixed to said distal end of said source wire at a desired position within an animal body for radiation therapy treatment purposes, by driving said source wire from said reference position towards said desired position through said guidance channel and a catheter tube, which catheter tube is connected with one tube end to the afterloading apparatus and implanted with its other tube end in said animal body.      The invention aims to provide an afterloading apparatus provided with a sensing device is capable of more accurately and reliable detecting the presence of the distal end and more in particularly the presence of the energy emitting source at its reference position, allowing a more save handling of the energy emitting source and thus avoiding hazardous and harmful situations.      According to the invention the sensing device is characterized in that a lever element is pivotally mounted near said guidance channel, which lever element is in a first position, when said distal end of said source wire is not present in its reference position and whereas said lever element is in a second position, when said distal end is present in its reference position.    With this embodiment it is possible to sense the presence of the distal end and the energy emitting source at several important operational positions within the afterloading apparatus or patient, thus allowing a more exact positioning of the energy emitting source into the patient's body.

Title: Wire feeder operable with lower minimum input voltage requirement
Inventor: OTT BRIAN L
IPC: B23K9/173
Filed: 2004-04-20
Abstract: The present invention is directed to a power supply that maintains power supply to a plurality of electronic components of a welding system when an arc voltage falls below approximately 15 volts. The invention includes a power supply having a secondary supply circuit that improves the operable range of the power supply by maintaining power to components of a welding system when the arc voltage at a weld is greater than or equal to approximately 10 volts. As a result, the operable range of the power supply is no longer limited by the arc voltage. The invention includes a secondary power supply circuit having a power switch that when activated causes a buildup of energy in the transformer assembly whereupon deactivation of the power switch in the magnetic core is exhausted such that power supply is maintained. The power switch regulates the transformer assembly such that sufficient secondary power is provided if the input voltage to the transformer is as low as approximately 10 volts.
