Title: Position sensing for a kvm switch
Inventor: KWAN DEREK
IPC: G06F3/00
Filed: 2005-08-30
Abstract: A position sensing system controls selection of channels in a KVM switch having a plurality of channels. The position sensing system has a sensor interface for receiving a sensor reading indicating a current position of a position movable component. Each position of the position movable component is associated with one of the plurality of channels. The position sensing system also includes a position component for selecting channels of the KVM switch according to the sensor reading. The position component comprises a position definition component and a translation component. The position definition component identifies one of the plurality of channels corresponding to the sensor reading based of one of a plurality of position definitions. Each of the plurality of position definitions provides sensor readings corresponding to the positions associated with one of the plurality of channels. The translation component generates a signal for selecting the determined channel at the KVM switch. This signal is provided to the KVM switch to effect switching of the KVm channel.

Title: Grommet or fill valve for an aerosol container
Inventor: MALONE CAROL
IPC: B65D83/44
Filed: 2006-01-19
Abstract: The present invention is directed to an improvement for a fill valve (22) for an aerosol container (10, 30) to provide better sealing capability. The fill valve is made using a flashless injection molding process in which both the mold cavity and molding material are heated to elevated temperatures to significantly improve cross-linking which occurs during the molding process. A backside (22a) of the fill valve now has a recessed portion (56) to facilitate ejection of the valve from a mold so leak paths are not created due to the forces applied to the valve during its extraction from the mold. The recessed portion reduces the amount of material required to make the fill valve and makes the fill valve flexible to aid in providing a good seal against leakage of a propellant from the container after filling.

Title: Method for channel congestion management
Inventor: HART STEVEN R
IPC: G06F/
Filed: 2004-11-23
Abstract: A method for managing data traffic in a multiple-user multiple simultaneous access environment using a channel load estimate and a calculation. The estimate or estimates are used to calculate a congestion threshold (CT) and to select a current congestion threshold broadcast to all potential users. An experiment is performed by users comparing that congestion threshold value and a random number to determine if a packet is eligible to be transmitted, thus throttling the random transmission of packets so that the transmitted load from the terminal has a rate of packet transmission that is less than the congestion threshold times the offered load (from the user), where the congestion threshold value is related to the probability of a globally successful transmission of a number of simultaneously transmitted packets. A  quality of service (QOS) factor may also throttle the transmitted load.
