Title: Multimedia multipoint telecommunications reservation acceptance systems and controllers
Inventor: ROTTOO SUNIL
IPC: H04L12/56
Filed: 1998-06-03
Abstract: A multimedia conference reservation controller and reservation acceptance system includes a database of all presently reserved resources on each MMS controlled by the reservation controller which includes an identification of each resource together with the starting time and ending time of the reservation.      The acceptance system is designed to accept a reservation query which includes a list of required resources, where flexible resourcesgb981594sidered desirable resources, but not absolutely necessary resources. In response to a reservation query involving a single MMS, the acceptance system accesses the database and builds a list of resources together with the times during which those resources are already reserved. This list is used to create a Resource Availability Matrix which is then analyzed and a list of time periods is generated during which the requested resources are available. In addition, the matrix analysis also indicates exactly which resources must be used to satisfy the request for each time period. In response to a reservation query involving two MMS units (202), the acceptance system builds two resource availability matrices (236), one for each MMS which are analyzed to generate a list indicating the time periods during which the conference can be reserved and the resources which must be used.

Inventor: ABE YOICHI
IPC: E01C23/01
Filed: 1999-05-25
Abstract: A surface treatment shape evaluation system, wherein, when the amount of irregularities on the surface of an existing deposited concrete is measured at specified pitches by a measuring device (10) after surface treatment, the measured amount of irregularities is collected automatically by a CPU (21) and the characteristic amount of the surface treatment shape of the existing deposited concrete is calculated, the characteristic amount calculated by the CPU (21) is compared by the CPU (21) with the characteristic amount of an ideal surface treatment shape pre-stored in a data ROM (22) so as to obtain the evaluated results of the surface treatment shape automatically, and the evaluated results can be confirmed immediately by displaying them on a display device (40) or printing out by a printer (50), the ideal surface treatment shape being a shape wherein the averaged height of irregularities on the surface of the existing deposited concrete is 13 to 35 % of the maximum particle size of aggregate, the ratio of slant length on the surface of the existing deposited concrete is 1.13 or more, and the irregularities of 2 mm or larger in height account for 14 % or more.

Patent CA-2303756-A1 (CA)
Title: Plumbing testing device
Inventor: SMITH MURRAY D
IPC: E03B7/09
Filed: 2000-04-03
Abstract: This is a collapsing test device for leak-testing drainage piping in a building. The device is installed (in its expanded position) within the drainage system (usually as it is constructed). The device has two open pipe ends which are clamped between a pair of in-line pipe sections (using standard mechanical joint clamps). The opposing ends of the pipe on the device have closure plates welded in place. Between the closed ends are two smaller pipes, one sliding into the other. These smaller pipes have holes with pins inserted to lock the device in the expanded position. Also between the plates are two ports with a valve and flexible clear hose in the middle of the ports. The valve on the upstream section of the device along with the clear flexible hose allows the upstream portion of the system to be filled from the bottom upward. Once the system is filled and successfully tested or if necessary a defective fitting in the test section of piping has been replaced, the flexible hose is connected to the second port in the downstream plate on the device and the valve opened, allowing the test fluid to drain from the tested portion to the downstream piping directly below the test device. Once drained, the standard mechanical joint clamps are loosened from both ends of the test device. The pins are pulled from the small pipes, allowing the device to be collapsed approximately three inches. The device is then easily removed and a replacement piece of pipe is then installed in its place. The test device may also be used in horizontal piping. To achieve maximum drain down the installer should position the ports, valve and clear flexible hose at the piping invert.

Title: Adding a code in an application during runtime to enrich object behaviour
Inventor: DI CESARE LAURENT
IPC: G06F3/0484
Filed: 2000-04-13
Abstract: A method, apparatus and system for allowing an end-user to define at run-time the way an object in the system will react to existing operations, or events, that are later performed on the object. In the system of the invention, the end-user can attach to the object code specifying behavior that the user wishes the object to exhibit from that point forward. The code defining the new or additional behavioral features will be interpreted by the applications software so that each time an event or operation is performed on the object, the system will recognize that the object has user-specified behavior associated therewith. The code remains associated with the object. In the system of the invention, there is no need to exit the application software. The new code specifying the desired behavior is immediately callable and executable by the system upon being input.

Title: Intruder/escapee detection system and method using a distributed antenna and an array of discrete antennas
Inventor: GAGNON ANDRE
IPC: H01Q9/04
Filed: 2000-06-27
Abstract: In a detection system for detecting intruders in the vicinity of a predetermined path or line defined by a distributed antenna, for example an open transmission line, an array of discrete antennas are provided alongside the distributed antenna and within a predetermined distance therefrom. The antennas are spaced apart from each other and the distributed antenna and define a plurality of detection zones. A radio frequency transmitter is connected to one of the distributed antenna and the array of discrete antennas, and a complementary receiver is connected to the other of the distributed antenna and the array of discrete antennas. A control unit controls the transmitter, receiver and array of antennas to exchange radio frequency energy several times via the distributed antenna and selected ones of the array of antennas and to detect perturbations caused by an intruder moving adjacent the path and adjacent a particular antenna. The antennas are scanned in sequence. Any antennas which have shown a perturbation during a previous scan will be scanned more frequently than antennas that have not previously indicated a perturbation. The antennas may be patch antennas and may be fastened to a fence, wall, trees, or a roof with the distributed antenna extending alongside, possibly buried.

Title: Canning structure and catalyst carrying method thereof
Inventor: YAMADA TOSHIO
IPC: B01J35/04
Filed: 2000-07-05
Abstract: A canning structure comprises a ceramic honeycomb structure; said honeycomb structure having been not loaded with a catalyst, a metal case and a holding material, and said ceramic honeycomb structure being canned in said metal case and being held by said holding material thereto. An impermeable film is provided between the ceramic honeycomb structure and the holding material . The canning structure has an impermeable film provided between the ceramic honeycomb structure and the holding material, and then a catalyst slurry is poured in only on the ceramic honeycomb structure side of the impermeable film, thereby preventing the holding material from carrying the catalyst , such that only the ceramic honeycomb structure carries the catalyst.      Thus, the holding material does not carry expensive catalyst at the time of carrying catalyst, and accordingly chipping and cracking of the ceramic honeycomb structure can be prevented at the time of transporting, the catalyst carrying process, the canning process, and handling in each of the processes.
