Patent AU-3296099-A (AU)
Title: Method and apparatus for watermark detection for specific scales and arbitrary shifts
Inventor: COLLIER DAVID C
IPC: H04N7/26
Filed: 1999-02-17
Abstract: Methods and devices for detecting a watermark in a watermarked video stream, the watermark having been scaled by an unknown scale among a predetermined finite number of scales and shifted by an unknown number of pixels. For each of the predetermined number of scales, the video stream is divided into a plurality of equally sized scaled watermark blocks; and the plurality of scaled watermark blocks are read into a plurality of read blocks. Each of the read blocks are accumulated into one of a predetermined number of read block bins. The accumulated read blocks are then re-scaled and combined into a single video accumulated block. A predetermined quantity, such as the power of a DCT, is then evaluated within the video accumulated block. This evaluation yields information relative to presence of the watermark in the video stream, the scale applied to the watermarked video and the shift of the watermark, if any, within the watermark blocks. A fractional remainder operation is used to determine the number of read block bins for each scale under consideration as well as to determine the bin into which each read block is to be accumulated.

Title: Micropropagation and production of phytopharmaceutical plants
Inventor: SAXENA PRAVEEN K
IPC: A01H4/00
Filed: 2000-03-24
Abstract: The development of an in vitro regeneration system that utilizes a plant growth regulator having cytokinin activity for the induction of de novo shoots or somatic embryos on explants of phytopharmaceutical plants is provided. Transfer of the regenerated shoots or somatic embryos into a solid or liquid medium with no plant growth regulators results in the rapid and prolific growth of viable plantlets. The method and its modifications are intended for application to all phytopharmaceutical plants, in particular St.John's wort (Hypericum perforatum cv. Anthos), Huang-qin (Scutellaria baicalensis), Echinacea sp., Feverfew (Tanacetum parthenium), garlic (Allium sp.) and the like. Furthermore, a process for the uptake of nutrients, minerals or additives from the growth medium and accumulation of these in the consumable biomass of plants, hereafter referred to as phytofortification, is also described. This process provides additives within a bioavailable form within plants and renders nutrients and additives amenable for easy assimilation by the human of livestock digestive systems.

Title: Electrochemical sensor for the specific detection of peracetic acid in aqueous solutions using pulse amperometric methods
Inventor: MCVEY IAIN F
IPC: G01N27/30
Filed: 2001-02-07
Abstract: An electrochemical sensor (A, A') is specific for the detection of peroxyacetic acid in a solution which also contains hydrogen peroxide. A potential is applied between a reference electrode (120, 120') and a working electrode (118, 118'). A read voltage (FIG. 7) is selectively pulsed across a counter electrode (122, 122') and the working electrode. The current flowing between the working electrode and the counter electrode is dependent on the peroxyacetic acid concentration in the solution (FIG. 6). By careful selection of the read voltage, the contribution of hydrogen peroxide to the current flow is virtually negligible. The sensor effectively measures peroxyacetic acid concentrations in the range generally employed in sterilization and disinfection baths (100-3000 ppm.).

Abstract: In computers (Processor Unit 1, . . . , Processor Unit N) that handle the operation of an ATM switch, applications may communicate with each other by transmitting internal traffic cells to each other, which are transported among other subscriber traffic. By assigning service categories to the applications, which correspond as well as possible to their quality needs, it is possible to optimize the quality of the connection services of internal connections. By setting the traffic parameters of internal traffic individually changeable, internal traffic and subscriber traffic can be integrated in the best possible way. In the preferred embodiment, the service category can be selected connection-specifically. In such a case, each application selects the best possible service category. In the second embodiment, the connection-specific category is selected to be the same for all the applications. In such a case, all the applications use the same predetermined service category. It is possible to divide the application into groups and to select the same service category for all the applications. In such a case, the application within the group always use the same predetermined service category.

Title: Method and apparatus for performing a key update using bidirectional validation
Inventor: MIZIKOVSKY SEMYON B
IPC: H04L9/08
Filed: 2000-07-25
Abstract: A key update system uses information in an update message from a communications system to generate a new key and perform a bidirectional validation of the new key. After a unit validates the new key, at least a portion of information from the update message is used by the communications system to validate the new key. As a result, the communications system is not required to generate and transmit a separate authentication challenge to validate the new key. For example, a wireless communications system can send an update message with a sequence RANDSSD to the wireless unit. The wireless unit generates a new SSD using at least a portion of the sequence RANDSSD, and the wireless unit uses at least a portion of the new SSD to generate a signature value AUTHBS to validate the new key and thereby the home authentication center that initiated the update of the SSD. After the wireless unit validates the new key by comparing the AUTHBS generated by the wireless unit with an AUTHBS generated by the wireless communications system, the wireless unit uses at least a portion of the sequence RANDSSD and at least a portion of the new SSD to generate the validation value AUTHSSD. The validation value AUTHSSD can be sent to the wireless communications system along with a confirmation signal indicating the wireless unit has validated the new key. The wireless communications system can validate the new SSD by comparing the validation value AUTHSSD received from the wireless unit with a validation value generated in the same fashion by the wireless communications system.  <IMAGE>
