Abstract: ATM transmission equipment that, provided between existing exchange or terminals of carrier equipment, etc., can emulate existing transmission paths, and also implement T point interfaces for in-home unit. An ATM network is provided between LT unit constituting existing equipment connected to existing STM lines such as high-speed digital lines or ISDN lines, on the one hand, and DSUs installed on the subscriber ends, ATM transmission equipment is installed between the LT unit and the ATM network, and ATM transmission equipment is installed between the ATM network and the DSUs. The ATM transmission equipment detects communication anomalies or extracts maintenance/operational information from data strings on the STM lines, replaces only the necessary information resulting from those extractions or detections with alarm signals, and transmits those signals together with information channels to the ATM network via cell assembler/disassember.      The information channels and alarm information that arrive from the ATM network and are subjected to cell disassembly are rearranged into STM line data strings and output to the LT unit, DSUs, or terminals.

Abstract: In order to move spatially the projection beam (P) from a video or graphics projector, the projection beam (P) which emerges from a light source (1) and is guided via and/or through an optoelectronic image generator (2) and through a projection lens (3) is deflected by means of at least one mirror (4) which can be pivotably displaced about two axes, an X-axis extending in the direction of incidence of the projection beam and a transverse Y-axis. In order to attain perfect correction of the image distortion caused by rotation in spite of the rapid movement of the mirror, the images to be projected from the image generator (2) are further rotated when the mirror (4) is pivotably adjusted about the X-axis in forced coupling with the pivotal adjustment of the mirror in order to compensate any image distortion occurring.

Title: Method and system for providing restricted write access to a storage medium
Inventor: SHAATH KAMEL
IPC: G06F12/14
Filed: 1999-04-29
Abstract: A method of restricting file access is disclosed wherein a set of file write access commands are determined from data stored within a storage medium. The set of file write access commands are for the entire storage medium. Any matching file write access command provided to the file system for that storage medium results in an error message. Other file write access commands are, however, passed onto a device driver for the storage medium and are implemented. In this way commands such as file delete and file overwrite can be disabled for an entire storage medium.

Patent CA-2284484-A1 (CA)
Inventor: TOMLINSON MICHAEL JOHN
IPC: G10L15/065
Filed: 1998-02-24
Abstract: A recognition system (10) incorporates a filterbank analyser (16) producing successive data vectors of energy values for twenty-six frequency intervals in a speech signal. A unit (18) compensates for spectral distortion in each vector. Compensated vectors undergo a transformation into feature vectors with twelve dimensions and are matched with hidden Markov model states in a computer (24). Each matched model state has a mean value which is an estimate of the speech feature vector. A match inverter (28) produces an estimate of the speech data vector in frequency space by a pseudo-inverse transformation.  It includes information which will be lost in a later transformation to frequency space. The estimated data vector is compared with its associated speech signal data vector, and infinite impulse response filters (44) average their difference with others. Averaged difference vectors so produced are used by the unit (18) in compensation of speech signal data vectors.

Patent CA-2290390-A1 (CA)
Inventor: PAULSON PETER O
IPC: G01N29/14
Filed: 1998-06-11
Abstract: Structural cables, for example those formed of a large number of wires and used in suspension bridges or cable-stayed bridges, are monitored by acoustic sensors. Breakage of a wire forming part of the cable gives rise to an acoustic signal. The signal is recorded and its location is found from the relative times at which it arrives at two sensors. Where sensors are located at the cable anchorage or on bands along the length of a suspension bridge cable, they can also monitor slippage of wires relative to the band or cable anchorage. The system preferably uses high resistance sensors and shielded cable. The outputs of different sensors are distinguished by a multiplexing technique or by identifying signals. In another embodiment, sensors placed about the circumference of a cable record signals from wire breaks and the signals are plotted to determine the location of the broken wire within the cross section of the cable.
