Inventor: KELLY JOSEPH WILLIAM
IPC: A21C11/16
Filed: 2003-05-07
Abstract: The method for producing an expanded, shaped pellet products with an annular cavity includes extruding a farinaceous mixture through a die orifice (50) of an extruder (40) to form a tubular extrudate. This is formed by extruding dough around and through a die insert having one or more sources for injecting air, other inert gas, or liquid into an annular cavity into a portion of the tubular extrudate. After exiting the extruder, the shaped extrudate initially expands at it exits the extruder die but is then stretched by upper roller (70) and lower roller (70) so as to substantially return the extrudate to an unexpanded state. Thereafter, the stretched extrudate is cut into shaped pellets with annular cavities. Upon being further heated, for example, in a hot air puffer, the pieces are puffed to produce expanded, shaped snack products with annular cavities without the need for a dehydration and/or conditioning step.

Title: System and method for remotely configuring a desktop mailbox
Inventor: BURNS ANTHONY GEORGE
IPC: H04L12/58
Filed: 2005-02-25
Abstract: A method and system for remotely configuring a desktop mailbox manager. A mobile node operable to communicate within a wireless network includes a remote desktop controller to generate configuration messages for transmission to a home node at which the desktop mailbox manager is located. When reconfiguration is required, reconfiguration criteria are formulated, usually at the direction of the user. The reconfiguration criteria are then used by the remote desktop controller to create a reconfiguration message, which is addressed for delivery to the home node. A network connection is established, and the reconfiguration message is transmitted. A network server associated with the base station through which the mobile node is communicating with the network routes the message to a server associated with the home node, utilizing an appropriate gateway if necessary. The message is stored on the server until the home node establishes communication and then the message is downloaded to the home node. In the home node, the message is used to reconfigure the desktop manager.

Abstract: A method for, from a server, controlling transfers of jobs from clients to shared resources in the network comprises that a request for sending a job t o a shared resource selected by a client is received from the client and it is checked continuously whether the resource is available and has capacity by t he moment for reception of jobs. A go-ahead is sent immediately to the client that the client can send the job to the resource if the resource is availabl e and has capacity by the moment. The request is placed in a queue for the resource if the resource is available, but for the moment lacks capacity, th e queue is updated continuously and a go-ahead is sent to the client that the client can send the job to the resource when the request has advanced to the first position in the queue and the resource has capacity. The step of receiving a request is followed by assigning an identity to the job, which i s sent to the client, and the identity is comprised in the go-ahead sent to th e client so that the client from said identity can identify the job. A confirmation that the job has been completed successfully by the resource or an indication that the job has not been completed successfully by the resour ce is received from the client, after which the request is removed from the que ue.
