Abstract: The invention provides an engine stoppage/start-up control
system permitting, the start-up of the engine by a
starter switch, with a timing where the driver can
experimentally start the engine by the starter switch.
To achieve this, under the "engine-stopping and vehicle-starting
mode" in which an engine is stopped, when a
vehicle in the running state is stopped, in response to a
specific vehicle-stopping condition and is restarted,
after stoppage of the engine, in response to a specific
vehicle-starting operation, the start-up of the engine by
turning on a starter switch is exceptionally permitted if
the non-seating state of a driver is continued for a
specific time or more after the engine is automatically
stopped.

Abstract: A method for equalizing the measured voltage of
each cluster in a fuel cell stack wherein at least one of
the clusters has a different number of cells than the
identical number of cells in the remaining clusters by
creating a pseudo voltage for the different cell numbered
cluster. The average cell voltage of the all of the
cells in the fuel cell stack is calculated and multiplied
by a constant equal to the difference in the number of
cells in the identical cell clusters and the number of
cells in the different numbered cell cluster. The
resultant product is added to the actual voltage measured
across the different numbered cell cluster to create a
pseudo voltage which is equivalent in cell number to the
number of cells in the other identical numbered cell
clusters.

Abstract: The recording medium has
discrimination data (E-bit) indicating whether or not content data has
been encrypted and recorded with copy control information data (CCI data)
into the content data. If the content data whose copying is
not permitted is reproduced, the discrimination data (E-bit) is read
out from the content data, and then the read discrimination
data (E-bit) is compared with encrypted state of the reproduced
content data. If the discrimination data (E-bit) shows a state
different from the current encrypted state of the content data,
the apparatus prohibits the reproduction of the content data.

Abstract: The target likelihood score of an unknown speaker measures the
degree to which the input speech of the unknown speaker matches the model
of a target speaker. A method for normalizing the target likelihood score
includes the step of selecting one of a plurality of background models as a
selected background model. The method also includes the steps of measuring

score by the background likelihood score. The background models are trained
from sessions of speech segments, the sessions grouped according to
characteristics of the speech segments. A method for clustering sessions of
speech segments from a plurality of speakers into  N  clusters includes the steps
of a) randomly selecting  N  of the sessions and assigning each of the  N 
sessions to a corresponding one of the  N  clusters; b) for each session  I , finding
a particular cluster of the  N  clusters that minimizes the average of distances
between the session  I  and all sessions in the particular cluster and assigning
the session  I  to the particular cluster; and c) repeating step b) until none of the
sessions changes its cluster.

Abstract: A method of issuing passwords is described where each password
is associated with a specified unique entity. For example, an
entity may be a site or switch in a communications network and
the passwords may be required to enable a software patch to be

entity is stored and a manager is able to modify this database
to indicate whether a password may be issued for a particular
software patch and switch. A web interface is provided via
which requests for passwords are made and an email engine
provides email responses to the requests. Details of the
requests are stored in the database and a manager is able to
obtain information from the database using the web interface.
This information enables the manager to control and monitor
passwords that are issued and to detect misuse of the system
or potential unauthorised password access.

Abstract: A method of establishing a data connection between
terminal switching nodes in a network and switching nodes for
implementing the method. The method involves switching nodes
participating in a network layer wavelength routing (WR)
protocol to determine the next hop switching node for every
possible combination of terminal nodes based on the network
topology. The method also involves the switching nodes
participating in a network layer wavelength distribution (WD)
once the data connection is to be established. The WR protocol
determines the path used through the network, while the WD
protocol assigns wavelengths on each link between switching
nodes. The wavelengths may be different on different optical
links. The switching nodes include wavelength converters with
an optical switch or optoelectronic converters with a digital
electronic switch. A digital electronic switch can also provide
signal reformatting. Advantages of using potentially different
wavelengths along various segments of a single end-to-end
connection yields increased wavelength efficiency.
