Abstract: A switch status sensor is provided for counting on/off events of a switch of a water meter. When an on/off event is detected by a microcontroller, the microcontroller supplies a "signature" signal, which is distinguishable from electromagnetic noise, to the switch. If this "signature" signal is detected as having passed through the switch by the microcontroller, then it can be confirmed that the switch is closed. Alternatively, if the "signature" signal is not detected as having passed through the switch by the microcontroller, then it is verified that the switch is open. Thus, the switch status sensor can distinguish between false switch events caused by electromagnetic noise and true on/off events of the switch.

Abstract: A process is described for testing the integrity of liquid filtration membranes without the use of pressurized air. The process includes draining the upstream compartment 3 and filling it with air by venting it to the atmosphere; applying a partial vacuum to the permeate compartment 4 to create a pressure difference across the membrane 2; and measuring the liquid flow out of the permeate chamber that corresponds to air passing through the leak orifices in the membrane. After stabilization of the pressure in the permeate chamber, the resulting constant liquid flow rate out of the permeate chamber is then used to evaluate the integrity of the membrane. An installation for implementing the process is also described and can include a plurality of filtration modules.

Abstract: Un modulo d'exponentiation de chiffrement M est exécuté par une multiplication modulaire X*YmodM, où M est un module temporairement statique mais non uniforme dans certains cas. Ledit processus se déroule en une série itérative d'étapes, dans chacune desquelles sont exécutées une ou plusieurs multiplications donnant un premier résultat, et une réduction, par élimination, de la taille du premier résultat, cette opération se faisant par une ou plusieurs secondes multiplications donnant un second résultat. Le procédé selon l'invention comporte en outre une opération particulière dont le but est de maintenir le résultat final de chaque étape au-dessous d'une valeur correspondant à un multiple prédéterminé du module. En particulier, selon ce procédé, toute soustraction du module est reportée, en tant qu'opération faisant partie d'une phase terminale de l'exponentiation modulaire. Cela est rendu possible grâce à la sélection adéquate d'un ou de plusieurs paramètres impliqués dans ce procédé. Cela permet en outre de conserver les performances temporelles globales.
