Title: Procede et systeme pour surveiller et recompenser le temps de connexion a une ressource reseau
Inventor: MARSHALL T THADDEUS
IPC: G06Q30/00
Filed: 2000-11-29
Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé pour surveiller et récompenser le temps de connexion à des ressources réseau à partir de systèmes clients. Le procédé consiste en ce qui suit: faire participer des personnes à un programme; commencer une séance d'accumulation lorsqu'un individu se connecte à une ressource de participant telle qu'un site Web; surveiller la durée d'une séance d'accumulation et l'attention manifestée par la personne pendant la période de connexion mesurée; et calculer la valeur de crédit sur la base de la durée de connexion et de l'attention portée par la personne (Figure 1, articles 100, 105, 110). Plus longue est la durée et plus intense est l'attention manifestée par la personne, plus grande est la valeur de crédit. On peut calculer qualitativement l'attention portée par une personne donnée à partir des réponses aux invites proposées. Ce procédé de mesure de qualité de l'attention manifestée par l'utilisateur peut aussi se fonder sur des facteurs équivalant à des crédits accumulés et, dans un deuxième temps, acquis par l'utilisateur. On peut mesurer la qualité de l'attention portée par une personne en lui proposant différents types d'invites proposées pendant une séance d'accumulation et en enregistrant le temps écoulé entre une invite et la réponse éventuellement donnée par l'utilisateur. Un administrateur de programmes central peut tenir un registre relatif aux antécédents de chaque utilisateur, et les ressources participantes peuvent fournir à l'administrateur de programmes des informations enregistrées pendant les séances d'accumulation.

Title: System for leak testing industrial components
Inventor: MCTAGGART MICHAEL DOUGLAS
IPC: G01M3/02
Filed: 2003-01-22
Abstract: A system for leak testing industrial components, such as engine blocks, is disclosed and includes a conveyor system for transporting the engine components to and from a test area having a support surface. A robot is operable in the test area and includes a manipulator which engages and moves the industrial components. At least two leak test units are provided where each leak test unit includes a shuttle for receiving the industrial component from the robot and thereafter subjecting that industrial component to a leak test. Each leak test unit then generates a failure output signal in response to a failed leak test on the industrial component. Each leak test unit is movably mounted to the test area support surface between an operable position and an inoperable position. In its operable position the leak test unit is positioned in the test area to receive the industrial components from the robot and perform the leak test. Conversely, in its retracted position, the leak test unit is positioned outside of the test area for maintenance, repair or the like. A robot control circuit controls the movement of the industrial components by the robot between the conveyor system and one or more of the selected leak test units in response to at least one control factor, such as a failure output from one of the leak test units.

Title: Method and system for transmitting signals with spectrally enriched optical pulses
Inventor: BAI YU SHENG
IPC: H04B10/18
Filed: 2001-08-10
Abstract: A system and method for transmission of data modulated spectrally enriched optical pulses via an error free propagation region of an optical fiber, in which the optical pulses generated by an optical transmitter have a spectrum that is substantially wider than the spectrum of Fourier-transform limit at an input of the error-free propagation region. The spectral width of the optical pulses gradually narrows while transmitting along this regions and becomes comparable to the Fourier-transform limit at an output of this region. Linear and non-linear distortions are compensated within the error free propagation region respectively by deployment of dispersion compensating units and phase modulation of transmitted optical pulses for providing them with an appropriate frequency chirp having shape comparable with a frequency chirp induced by a self-phase modulation of the optical fiber but having opposite sign.
