Abstract: A system by which external users, such as subscribers and service providers, can update their service data is disclosed. The system permits users to update their service data in a secure and controlled manner on a self-service basis in an intelligent network or other telecommunications network. An access system separate from the actual telecommunications services managing network elements is implemented in the invention, the access system providing the customers and service providers with an open interface to these network elements through a public data network. The access system controls access to the actual network elements by, for example, authenticating the party requesting access, checking whether the requesting party is associated with the data he/she desires to manipulate, and/or checking to which processing operations the requesting party is entitled. The users can thus access their own service data in the network elements managing the data in a manner controlled by the access system.

Abstract: A platen of a polishing apparatus and a method of
adhesion of a polishing pad enables a polishing pad to be
adhered to the platen and cut easily and in a short time
even by an unskilled worker. Protective rings are attached
to the upper part of the outer peripheral surface and upper
part of the inner peripheral surface of a platen covered
by a protective film over its entire surface other than the
pad adhesion surface. At this time, the pad abutting
surfaces of the protective rings are set to be level with
the pad adhesion surface. An original sheet of a polishing
pad larger than the platen is adhered to the pad adhesion
surface in this state, then the blade part of a cutter is
used to cut the polishing pad while abutting against the
slanted surfaces of the protective rings, whereby the
polishing pad can be cut to a shape corresponding to the
platen.

Abstract: A test circuit (1) for arc fault detectors (19) of the type which respond to
step changes in ac current over time generated each time an ac is struck includes a low
frequency relaxation oscillator (43) which generates a repetitive signal with step
changes like those produced by an arc fault. The relaxation oscillator (43) includes a
capacitor (47) charged through a resistor (49) and shunted by a voltage breakdown
device (51), preferably a diac. The capacitor (47) is rapidly discharged when its
voltage reaches the breakdown voltage of the voltage breakdown device (51) to generate
the step change which is input to the arc fault detector (19). With a repetition rate of
the relaxation oscillator not greater than about 15 repetitions per second (rps), and
preferably about 5 rps, a user can annually determine the time to trip to verify arc fault
detector operation. With the oscillator operating at such a low frequency, a signaling
device (67) such as a light emitting diode (LED) placed in series with the voltage
breakdown device (51), permits the user to manually count the number of step changes
required to produce a trip thereby providing further verification of detector operability.

Abstract: A distributed demand assigned multiple access control scheme (22) for use in connection with a processing satellite communications system, where multiple users are assigned to a common TR as part of a sharing set (12). The control scheme (22) of the invention makes use of a reservation procedure by transmitting set addressed reservation messages in a contentious control flow to reserve data transfer time in a non-contentious main flow. Each user of the sharing set is synchronized with each other and with a known synchronization variable defined by the next available uplink time slot available to transmit data in the main flow (10). When a user of a sharing set wishes to send data in the main flow, it transmits the set addressed reservation message in the control flow (26), and if the set addressed reservation message is returned in the satellite downlink (28), the terminal knows that all of the users of the shared set received the message. That reserved time interval in the main flow is now owned by that user, and each user in the shared set updates its next available uplink time slot based on the reserved time. By gaining access to the shared set, each user is limited to a predetermined peak cell rate, is guaranteed a sustained cell rate, and is limited to a maximum reservation length. The maximum reservation length identifies the largest number of data units transmitted per reservation, and defines a worst case delay that the user must wait to gain a reservation. A user may piggyback a reservation by sending a set addressed reservation message during transmission of data in the main flow.
