Patent CA-2302520-A1 (CA)
Inventor: BRANSCOMB BRIAN
IPC: H04Q11/04
Filed: 1998-08-25
Abstract: A data communications switch and method of operation are presently disclosed enabling flexible, selectable provision of a common timing signal for synchronized external communication through physical layer interfaces with other network devices, synchronized internal communications within the switch, and for uninterrupted synchronization of such communications. Synchronization of external communications is enabled by programmable selection from among plural potential timing references at redundant timing modules (TMs). An active TM (12a) provides a primary external synchronization clock; a standby TM (12b) provides a redundant timing function. Both TMs (12a and 12b) access the same references. A state signal indicates which synchronization clock is active. External interfaces derive timing from this distributed clock.  Synchronized internal timing is provided by an internal clock (24) and phase-locked loop (PLL) on each TM (12a and 12b). The clock/PLL timing signal output is routed to other switch elements, enabling synchronized internal data transfer. Both interconnected TMs (12a and 12b) actively generate clock signals for external and internal use, enabling seamless timing switchover should conditions warrant a change in TMs (12a and 12b).

In a preferred embodiment the PIN number is provided to the patron by being printed out on the ATM's existing account statement printer. An ATM adapted to permit patrons of such ATM to purchase a quantity of telephone time from one of a plurality of telephone service providers is further disclosed.
Patent CA-2304635-A1 (CA)
Title: Integrated single chip dual mode raid controller
Inventor: WEBER BRET S
IPC: G06F3/06
Filed: 1998-09-29
Abstract: A RAID controller integrated into a single chip (100). The RAID controller chip (100) includes a general purpose RISC processor (121), memory interface logic (128), a host CPU PCI bus (150), at least one back-end I/O interface channel (130), at least one direct memory access (DMA) channel (122), and a RAID parity assist (RPA) circuit (126). The RAID chip enables higher integration of RAID functions within a printed circuit board and in particular enables RAID function integration directly on a personal computer or workstation motherboard. The back-end I/O interface channel is preferably dual SCSI channels. The RAID chip is operable in either of two modes. In a first mode, the chip provides pass through from the host CPU (102) interface directly to the dual SCSI channels (130). This first mode of operation, a SCSI  pass-through mode, allows use of the chip for non-RAID storage applications and enables low level manipulation of the disk array in RAID applications of the chip. The first mode of operation permits use of the chip without change to host applications and drivers. Rather, the chip is operable in a manner compatible with known available SCSI controller devices. The second mode of operation, a RAID control mode, provides full RAID management features to the attached host CPU. In the preferred embodiment, the RAID chip presents an Intelligent I/O (I2O) interface to the host CPU to enhance portability and performance of the host/RAID interaction.

Filed: 1998-10-16
Abstract: L'invention concerne une composition à base d'émulsifiant-lipide comprenant un constituant monoglycéridique, un constituant ester polyglycérolique ainsi qu'un constituant de matière grasse. Le constituant monoglycéridique est choisi entre le mono-diglycéride, des monoglycérides distillés ou leurs mélanges, et il comprend environ 2,0 % à 50 % de la composition d'émulsifiant-lipide. Le constituant mono-diglycéridique ou monoglycéridique distillé préféré présente une concentration élevée (?60 %) de monoglycéride. Le constituant ester polyglycérolique comprend environ 0,5 % à environ 40 % de la composition d'émulsifiant-lipide. L'ester polyglycérolique comprend moins de 50 % de polyol libre. L'ester polyglycérolique comprend environ 2 à environ 10 unités glycérol par fraction de polyglycérol. Moins de 40 % des groupes hydroxyle des unités glycérol sont estérifiés avec de l'acide myristique, de l'acide palmitique, de l'acide stéarique ou des mélanges de ces acides. Le constituant de matière grasse peut être une matière grasse digestible ou une matière grasse non digestible et il constitue environ 20 % à environ 97,5 % de la composition d'émulsifiant-lipide. La matière grasse non digestible, si on l'utilise, présente de préférence des propriétés similaires à celles d'un triglycéride, par exemple, un polyester de polyol acide gras. Les compositions d'émulsifiant-lipide sont adaptées à une utilisation dans des compositions de pâte amidonée. La composition d'émulsifiant-lipide est particulièrement adaptée à une utilisation dans des pâtes à base d'amidon transformables en feuilles destinées à être frites dans une matière grasse non digestible, où elle sert à complexer l'amidon, à réguler la répartition d'eau et à lier l'eau.

Title: Computer telephony integrated pbx
Inventor: CENZANO OTTO M
IPC: H04Q3/545
Filed: 1999-01-27
Abstract: A telephony and data network (figure 1) is achieved by integrating a plurality of signal switching circuits in circuit hub devices. The devices (Hubs) each resemble a typical 10 Base-T, 8 port ethernet hub in size and outward appearance and preferably has an 8 port interface. This interface is constructed and arranged to interconnect to phone lines directed from a standard analog signal handling telephone set, and also from a telephone system central office. It therefore acts as an interface device between these two points in the telephone network. Each Hub provides a signal processing circuit having digital/analog signal converting capability in the form of standard telephone coder-decoder circuits. These Codec circuits are supervised by a digital signal processor which is a part of the signal processing circuit of the Hub. The Hub circuit also provides a general-purpose microprocessor capable of handling LAN communications. The Hub is configured to communicate over a LAN with any standard protocol. Software is written to allow interfacing with common personal computer operating systems and applications.
