Abstract: A bag having a separable opening strip within at least one wall of the bag is provided. The separable opening strip is defined end bounded by a frangible boundary comprising s weakened path within the wall of the bag. The weakened path may be formed by perforating the bag wall. The weakened boundary and the separable opening strip are such that, when the separable opening strip is pulled in a direction outward from the bag wall, the separable opening strip separates from the wall along the frangible boundary. A flexible strip of tape having an adhesive surface is further provided and adhered over the separable opening strip such that it covers the separable opening strip and extends to the outside of the frangible boundary. When the strip of tape is pulled in a direction outward from the bag wall, the separable opening strip remains adhered to the tape and separates from the wall as previously described. The tape is preferably waterproof so that when it is adhered to the bag wall over the separable opening strip, it prevents water from entering the bag through the frangible boundary. The tape may also be used to reseal the bag.

Title: Method and apparatus for embedding auxiliary data in a primary data signal
Inventor: MOALLEMI KAMRAN
IPC: H04J13/00
Filed: 1997-12-02
Abstract: Auxiliary data (x(m)) is transported in a primary data signal (s(t)) by hiding the data in the form of colored noise. The colored noise has a spectrum that simulates the spectrum of the primary data signal. The data to be transported is first converted to a spread spectrum signal d(t). The primary data signal is analyzed to determine its spectral shape. The same spectral shape is imparted to the spread spectrum signal, which is then combined with the primary data signal for transmission. The spectral shaping can be performed using time domain modeling and synthesis such as linear predictive coding (88, 94) or by using subband coding techniques such as fast Fourier transforms (174). A plurality of different auxiliary information streams (280, 290, 300) can be transported on the primary data signal. By adjusting the gain (287, 297, 307, 309) of individual spread spectrum signal carrier(s) and the power (96) of the colored noise, the auxiliary information stream(s) can be rendered at any desired level below or above an interference threshold in the primary data signal.

Title: Optimizing access to multiplexed data streams
Inventor: CHI DARREN
IPC: G11B27/32
Filed: 1997-11-26
Abstract: A system and method accelerate access time to multiplexed data streams. Data streams are stored in a storage medium (120), and a link allocation table (LAT) (160), which is stored in the storage medium (120), maps blocks of a data stream to sectors of the storage medium (120). The LAT (160) is organized as a set of linked lists, and each data stream is associated with a different linked list in the LAT (160). Each link in a linked list includes the sector location for a different block of the data stream. Traversing the links of the linked list gives the sector location of each subsequent block of data. Each data stream is also associated with a cache memory (140). For each link of a linked list that is traversed, a cache interface (150) writes into an appropriate cache (140) the sector location information stored in the link.  When the sector location of a block in a data stream is desired, the cache interface (150) consults the appropriate cache (140) associated with the data stream to determine whether the sector location of the block has been cached.  If the information has been cached, the information is retrieved from the cache (140), and the LAT (160) is not used. If the sector location has not been cached, the cache interface (150) determines the last sector location to have been cached, and the appropriated linked list in the LAT (160) is traverse from the entry corresponding to the last sector location cached.

Patent CA-2296149-A1 (CA)
Inventor: LI KEN MING
IPC: G06F1/10
Filed: 1999-05-24
Abstract: A graphics processing system (100) incorporates a calibrator module (150) into the system. As a memory module (120) continuously transmits a model data signal, the calibrator module (150) automatically increments the number of stages of delay (170), which are integrated into a delayed clock signal. Each delayed clock signal triggers the sampling of the model data signal by a plurality of latches (130). The calibrator module compares (220) each of these sampled data signals with the original model data signals. If the delayed clock signal is properly aligned with the model data signal to cause the two signals to match, the calibrator module stores a result signal in a "1" logic state (230). If the delayed clock signal is misaligned with the model data signal, the calibrator module will store the result signal in a "0" logic state (230). When all of the possible stages of delay have been activated by the calibrator module and the corresponding sampled data signals analyzed, a processor module determines the optimum number of stages of delay needed for proper alignment of the delay clock signal with the transmitted model data signal.
