Abstract: A document, preferably in a portable format, is forwarded to a remote
server ( e.g.  using HTTP to  push  the document to the server). The
server sends a generic notification of the document to an intended
recipient, and the recipient can download the document from the
server using local protocols. A method and system is also provided
that sends documents from a desktop computer inside an intranet
through a series of firewalls and/or proxy servers to a server residing
on the Internet. A computer in an intranet system protected by a
firewall or proxy server uses a software application to access the
Internet. The software also encodes binary data to be sent as text.
This binary data may be subdivided into smaller text packets. The text
packets are sent, using HTTP, to a server outside the firewall, which
has been configured to accept such text packets. The server converts
the text packets back to the original binary data representation. The
binary data, once resident on the internet server, can then be
forwarded directly to other internet servers, internet desktop
computers, printers, or fax machines. A document delivery server is
also provided that dynamically customizes the format of a document to
be delivered, based on the capabilities of the recipient and the type of
document to be delivered. The server attempts to maintain the
information contained in the document in a high level representation
and deters the decision of when to convert to a lower level
representation, thereby maximizing the potential set of options and
function at each step in the delivery process.

Abstract: To securely hold a shield tube and a shield layer electrically connected. 
     A shield layer 13 of a shielded cable W and a metal shell 30 are electrically
connected via a connection member 40. This connection member 40 is so
formed as to have a tubular shape and is comprised of a receiving portion 41
which is insertable under the shield layer 13, a shield layer fastening portion 42
for fastening the shield layer 13 to the receiving portion 41, and a contact
portion 43 to be brought into pressing contact with the inner circumferential
surface of the metal shell 30. The portions 41 to 43 are integrally or unitarily
formed. With this construction, if the shield layer fastening portion 42 is fastened
after the receiving portion 41 is inserted under the shield layer 13, the shield
layer 13 is tightly held between the receiving portion 41 and the fastening
portion 42, with the result that the shield layer 13 and the metal shell 30 can be
held electrically connected even if the rigidity of an insulation layer 12 is reduced.

Abstract: Several different embodiments are disclosed of a
simple, compact or miniature bar code scanner which is
capable of scanning in any one of several modes. In a
preferred embodiment, the compact bar code scanner is used
in a small housing mounted on an index finger of an
operator such that the natural pointing direction of the
index finger aims the scanner. In one embodiment, a high
frequency flexural member, with a scanning mirror and
permanent magnet mounted thereon, is supported by a low
frequency flexural member. An x drive coil is positioned
by the permanent magnet, and with an applied high frequency
x drive signal, causes the high frequency flexural member,
with the permanent magnet means and scanning mirror mounted
thereon, to torsionally oscillate at the frequency of the x
drive signal. A y drive coil is also positioned by the
permanent magnet, and with an applied low frequency y drive
signal, causes the low frequency flexural member to
oscillate to cause low frequency y scanning of the scanning
mirror, thereby resulting in a raster scan pattern. With
an applied high frequency y drive signal, the y coil causes
the high frequency flexural member to oscillate at a high
frequency to cause high frequency y scanning of the mirror,
thereby resulting in an omnidirectional scan pattern. In
several disclosed embodiments, the present invention
provides a mirrorless beam scanning unit mounted in a
finger size ring wherein a light emitter such as a visible
light diode is moved back and forth.

Abstract: A field effect transistor is fabricated on an SOI substrate. N-type source and drain regions are arranged apart from each other in a semiconductor thin film of the SOI substrate. A P-type channel region is formed between the source and drain regions. Moreover, a gate electrode is formed over the channel region to cover the channel region through a gate oxide film. Extreme portions of the channel region, adjacent to the source and drain regions, have higher doping concentrations than in a center portion thereof. Furthermore, the gradient of the doping profile in the channel region is adjusted so as to reduce the current gain of a parasitic transistor in the field effect transistor. This structure enables a reduction of the channel length of the field effect transistor to the sub-half-micron order without deteriorating the electrical characteristics of the field effect transistor.

identified by detecting the conductor lines that are
connected to the ground plane. All the conductor lines may be
connected as pulled-up inputs of a detector circuit, and any
conductor line or combination of conductor lines may be used
to identify a key. A noticeably greater number of keys may be
simply identified with the same number of conductor lines
than is possible in a solution according to the prior art. In
an advantageous embodiment of the present invention, the
means for connecting the conductor lines (4', 5', 6', 7') to
the ground plane (27) is a conductive plate (23), which
essentially covers the whole keyboard. This also provides a

Abstract: An improved cellular telephone communication system
is described having operational steps which prevent a
call from being dropped due to a radiotelephone (130) not
receiving a handoff instruction from its host base site
(115). The system includes a switch controller (122) for
determining that the radiotelephone requires a handoff
from a first base site coverage area (110) to a second
base site coverage area (112) and for communicating a
handoff message to the associated first (115) and second
base site equipment (119). The first base site equipment
then transmits the handoff message to the radiotelephone.
If the radiotelephone does not receive the message, it
determines that the call has been lost, siezes a
signalling channel from the second base site, and
requests, via the second base site a call reconnection by
transmitting a special message. The second base site
then informs the radiotelephone of the handoff
instruction and the handoff is completed with a
successful reconnection of the call.

Abstract: The method involves using a statement data record resulting from a call by device of a neural network for the recognition of a fraud. The statement data record as well as statement data records of previous calls are entered as input parameters in the neural network, and the output value of the neural network indicates a probability for the fraud. The fraud is recognized as existent if the output value oversteps a pre-citable value, and as non-existent, if the output value does not overstep the pre-citable value. The neural network is preferably trained before the input parameters are entered, by assigning an average user profile to a subscriber, adjusting the user profile through a probability model which describes the call behaviour of that subscriber in response to statement data records, and adapting the probability model by using statement data records as input parameters for a predetermined period of time.

Abstract: A method for detecting the solid particles
contained in a fluid, by the use of a particle sensor having
a flow path of a fluid, having a fluid inlet and a fluid
outlet, and a sensor element provided in the flow path,
which comprises (a) a vibrating section having such a mass
that is sensitive to the collision of solid particles contained
in the fluid, with the vibrating section and (b) a
detecting section for detecting the vibration of the
vibrating section caused by the collision and converting the
vibration to electric signals. The method includes steps
of: passing a fluid to be examined, through the particle
sensor, selectively detecting, from the electric signals
outputted from the particle sensor, an electric signal
portion having particular frequencies ranging from 1/50 to
10 times the primary resonance frequency of the sensor
element, measuring the maximum amplitude of the electric
signal portion, comparing the maximum amplitude measured
above, with a given value predetermined with the particle
sensor based on (1) the maximum amplitude of a portion of
the electric signals caused by the collision of solid
particles contained in a fluid, having the above particular
frequencies and (2) the maximum amplitude of a portion of
the electric signals caused by the turbulent flow of the 
same fluid containing no solid particles, having the above
particular frequencies, and judging, depending upon the
result of the above comparison, whether or not the electric
signals outputted from the particle sensor with the fluid to
be examined have been caused by the collision of solid
particles with the particle sensor.
