Abstract: A method of processing an input image produces an output image emphasising peak-like structures. The input image comprises input pixels and each input pixel has an intensity characteristic. The output image comprises corresponding output pixels and each output pixel has a value. The method comprises the step of calculating for an input pixel the second derivative of the intensity characteristic in two orthogonal directions, one of the directions being the direction of maximum curvature. The product of the two second derivatives is calculated and the value of the output pixel corresponding to the input pixel is determined in dependence on the product.

Abstract: The invention concerns a dispensing closure (4) for a container (1) comprising closure walls (5), 
at least one dispensing aperture (6), 
at least one closing element (7) that is movable relative to the closure walls between a first position where said dispensing aperture is closed, and a second position where the dispensing aperture is open and the product is dispensed, 
at least one actionable means (8) that surrounds said closure walls and said closing element, and a spring element (9) disposed between said closing element (7) and said closure walls (5), so as to naturally force the closing element in a position where it closes said aperture, characterized in that said dispensing closure further comprises at least one connection device comprising 
a flexible pouch (28) containing a temperature dependent material, and 
a catch mechanism (22) adjacent the pouch (21) which can move between a position where it operatively connects the closing element and the actionable means and a position where the catch mechanism (22) allows the actionable means (8) to move independently of the closing element (7), so that when the temperature of the container is below a predetermined safety temperature the temperature dependent material is rigid enough that the pouch (28) restrains the catch mechanism (22) in the position where it operatively connects the closing element (7) and the actionable means (8), thus allowing a consumer to open the dispensing aperture by moving said actionable means (8), and when the temperature of the container is above said safety temperature the temperature dependent material is sufficiently fluid that the pouch (21) is compressible by the catch mechanism (22) so that the catch mechanism (22) moves to the position where it allows the actionable means (8) to move independently of the closing element (7), thus preventing a consumer from opening the dispensing aperture by moving said actionable means (8).

Abstract: Image de sécurité à écailles d'une première couleur et écailles d'une seconde couleur différente mélangés uniformément dans un vecteur. Les écailles de la seconde couleur sont magnétiquement orientables et les autres sont non magnétiques, ne s'alignant ou ne s'orientant pas dans un champ magnétique. L'exposition d'au moins une seule région revêtue à un champ magnétique sensiblement orthogonal au substrat sur lequel le revêtement d'écailles est appliqué permet d'établir une région visible ayant la première couleur alors que les écailles se tiennent à la verticale et que les écailles non magnétiques sont à plat sur le substrat. Dans une autre région où aucun champ n'est appliqué, une région visible à troisième couleur perçue différente des première et seconde couleurs, mais formées à partir de l'une ou l'autre de ces couleurs, est vue.

Title: Arrangement and method for controlling service activation on a mobile terminal
Inventor: FERSMAN ELENA
IPC: H04W8/18
Filed: 2006-06-20
Abstract: An arrangement and method in a wireless communication network provides users with full control of service management, defines how a user can enter or leave services, and defines dependencies between services. A mobile terminal (31) initiates establishment of a group and creates a unique grouplD. The terminal sends invitations (41) to other terminals (32, 33, 61) to join the group and includes the unique grouplD and a service feature tag for a desired service. The terminal will not request a service if it is incompatible with a service already running. Terminals that receive invitations store (42) the grouplD and service feature tags. These parameters are used to send acceptances (43) or rejections (84), and to join later (92) or leave a service (54).
Patent CA-2655919-A1 (CA)
Title: Compaction device for fiber placement using interdependent segment travel
Inventor: SHUPE KEITH G
IPC: B29C70/38
Filed: 2007-06-26
Abstract: A method and system for a fiber compaction device with interdependent segment travel is described. A compaction device structure supports a series of individual interdependent segments including a compaction surface. Each segment also includes an opening in which a presser member can be located. The presser members consist of either an elastomeric bladder filled with an incompressible fluid or individual pistons that are manifolded together with a fixed volume of incompressible fluid. The presser members create an interdependence in segment positions such that if one or more segments are displaced the others move to balance the segment positions. Having a fixed volume of incompressible fluid allows the segments to work interdependently, thus guaranteeing that the average section position will be the nominal position and eliminating the need for a fixed center section. The segments can conform to complexly shaped part surfaces and apply a uniform pressure against the entire surface to better compact material being drawn through the fiber compaction device.

Inventor: LIN CHUN H
IPC: B42F13/22
Filed: 2005-12-05
Abstract: A ring mechanism for retaining loose-leaf pages comprises a housing and ring members for holding loose-leaf pages that are moveable relative to the housing between an open and closed position. An actuation system moves the ring members and includes hinge plates pivotally mounted on the housing and a lever actuating pivoting movement of the hinge plates in at least one direction (e.g., moving the hinge plates and ring members to the open position). The lever is connected to a travel bar that moves lengthwise of the housing between a position blocking pivoting movement of the hinge plates and a position allowing pivoting movement of the hinge plates. At least one of the lever and the hinge plates deforms when the lever moves to delay pivoting movement of the hinge plates so that the lever may move the travel bar so that it does not block movement of the hinge plates.

Patent CA-2667163-A1 (CA)
Title: Packet throttling system and method of throttling packet reception
Inventor: SMALL KEITH MACPHERSON
IPC: G06F9/48
Filed: 2009-05-28
Abstract: A packet throttling system is provided for a network head-end device having CPUs and an operating system having interrupt handling code to implement interrupt handlers in one or more of the CPUs for processing interrupts. The packet throttling system comprises a CPU interrupt load examiner, throttling period calculator and interrupt handier terminator. The CPU interrupt load examiner examines, for each of the CPUs, a current CPU interrupt load which is a proportion of a CPU's time that is being spent servicing any interrupt handlers. The throttling period calculator calculates a throttling period for each of the CPUs based on the current CPU interrupt load. The throttling period is a period between permitted packet receptions for the CPU. The interrupt handler terminator terminates a packet reception interrupt handier handling a packet reception interrupt in a receiving CPU if the throttling period of the receiving CPU has not elapsed since the receiving CPU handled a last permitted received packet.
