Patent EP-1039720-A3 (EP)
Inventor: HIRAI KATSUNORI
IPC: G06Q30/06
Filed: 2000-02-09
Abstract: There are provided an actual
using result table to store purchase amounts in a shopping
system and an operation threshold value table to store load
thresholds used as criteria for determining whether to approve
service provisioning, and when a request for an access to a
service provisioning system is received, the actual using result
table and the operation threshold value table are referred to,
a load threshold is determined based on an actual using result,
and it is determined whether to approve an access to the service
provisioning system.
The invention solves the problem created when a service provisioning
system such as a shopping service system is highly loaded, since all
users are unconditionally limited in the access to the service
provisioning system, service provisioning conditions cannot be set on a
user-by-user basis so that specific users are preferentially connected to
the service provisioning system and other users are not.

Abstract: The tendency of a surface to accumulate biofilm is investigated by immersing a test
piece having a surface to be investigated in a liquid culture of a microrganism which forms
a biofilm. The culture is in a restricted growth medium and the surface is immersed so as
to be freely drainable. After a pre-determined time the test piece is removed from the
liquid culture and the concentration of microrganism bound to the test piece is determined,
e.g. by removing the microrganisms from the surface and dispersing the microrganisms
into a liquid culture.

IPC: F16D65/18

Abstract: An aircraft brake assembly, wherein the actuator portion (14) of the brake
assembly is no longer provided as part of the brake assembly but instead as part of
the aircraft landing gear (20). Accordingly, the actuator portion (14) or individual
actuator assemblies (30) are designated as Line Replacement Units (LRUs), which
are replaceable independently of other brake components, e.g., the torque tube (12)
and heat sink (16), which then comprise the brake assembly designated as a
separate LRU. This new arrangement is particularly suited to electro-mechanically
actuated brakes, where actuator maintenance intervals will typically be more closely
related to landing gear maintenance intervals than to brake maintenance (i.e.,
hydraulic actuator and/or heat sink maintenance). The invention also provides for
more effective and desirable mounting of one or more electro-mechanical actuators
wherein reactionary loads are transferred in compression as opposed to in tension
through mounting bolts or other removable fasteners.

Abstract: A reference system for an optical wavelength scanner, used for measuring
wavelengths of radiation from an optical device. The system utilizes a wavelength
reference comprising a fixed fiber Fabry-Perot (FFP) filter in combination with a
reference fiber Bragg grating (FBG) having an accurately known reflection
wavelength to minimize the effects of drift and non-linearities in the scanner and to
allow a simple flexure element to be used to position a dispersive grating. The
wavelengths of the reference comb of the fixed FFP are determined by reference to
that of the reference FBG. Then, the peaks or notches in the light intensity from the
device under test are located with respect to the comb of peaks produced by the
reference. In a most simple embodiment two ports are coupled so as to provide their
output light to the dispersive element simultaneously and only a single collimating
lens is required for collimating light from the output ports.

Abstract: A pair of internal signals (A01, A11 and A02, A12)
are generated by halving a 3-bit 5-valued input signal,
neglecting the least significant bit LSB. If the input
signal shows the value of an odd number, 1 is added to
either of the pair of internal signals to generate
first and second signals (MSB1, LSB1 and MSB2, LSB2).
"1" is added to either of the pair of internal signals
(A01, A11 and A02, A12) in an alternating way each time
an input signal having the value of an odd number.
Signal processing circuits selects a number of output
terminals corresponding to the value of the first
