Abstract: The invention relates to a method and to a communication system for managing a communication network. The aim of the invention is to provide a method with which communication networks can be automatically tested from a superordinate producer--independently managing network management center (NMC), for example at times when subordinate, producer-specific operation and maintenance centers (OMC) are not occupied. To this end, at least one producer-dependent information is transmitted when an alarm report is sent and producer-specific hardware tests are automatically generated in the network management center. The information model of the OMC-NMC interface does not have to be familiar with the producer-specific object classes. The tests automatically generated in the network management center NMC can be triggered specifically, that is when errors of a certain hardware board have occurred, or preventively, for example for the entire hardware of a network unit.

Abstract: This disclosure describes techniques for coding an enhancement layer in a scalable video coding (SVC) scheme. The techniques involve run-length coding of significant coefficients and refinement coefficients of the enhancement layer. Rather than performing two different run-length passes to separately code the significant coefficients and refinement coefficients, the techniques of this disclosure perform run-length coding of the significant coefficients and refinement coefficients together. Therefore, run values of the run-length coding codes the significant coefficients with the refinement coefficients. Additional techniques are also described, which can eliminate the need to send sign information for some of the refinement coefficients. Instead, this sign information for some of the refinement coefficients may be derived at the decoder based on the sign values of corresponding coefficients of previously encoded layers of the SVC scheme, which can further improve compression efficiency.

Title: Flow pulsing device for a drilling motor
Inventor: BUNNEY LARRY RAYMOND
IPC: E21B21/08
Filed: 2009-09-30
Granted: 2017-05-16
Abstract: A downhole flow pulsing device comprises a housing connected in series with a drill string and a valve with a rotating portion in the housing arranged to vary an area of a flow passage through the housing. A fluid actuated positive displacement motor drives rotation of the valve. A drive link permits the rotating portion of the valve to be optionally coupled directly to the motor of the drill string. The valve includes radially oriented rotating ports intermittently communicating with surrounding fixed ports and a bypass channel. Axial displacement of the rotating ports relative to the fixed ports and bypass channel permits amplitude of the downstream fluid pulses to be adjusted. The valve includes a number of circumferentially spaced ports which differs from a prescribed number of pressure fluctuations in the fluid for each full rotation of the rotor of the drill motor.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un serveur principal très extensible pour servir un nombre croissant d'utilisateurs et de dispositifs à distance. Plutôt que de communiquer avec un serveur principal en utilisant un protocole de communication onéreux, un dispositif à distance communique avec un serveur secondaire en utilisant un protocole moins onéreux pour déterminer si le serveur principal souhaite communiquer des instructions de commande au dispositif à distance. Lorsque le serveur principal a une requête pour commander le dispositif à distance, le serveur principal crée une entrée de table dans le serveur secondaire pour notifier le dispositif à distance d'une requête à communiquer. Lors de l'interrogation du serveur secondaire et de la connaissance de l'entrée de table créée, le dispositif à distance établit une connexion de communication avec le serveur principal pour recevoir les instructions en vue de commander le dispositif à distance. De cette manière, la demande de ressources nécessaires pour une communication avec le serveur principal est significativement réduite.
