Abstract: A system, apparatus and method are described for controlling the gain across one or more amplifier nodes within an optical span. In one embodiment, a fast local amplifier constant gain control loop is provided that maintains a constant gain across an amplifier node for each of the channels within an optical signal. A slow link level gain setting control loop is provided to set and/or adjust the target gain on the amplifier node(s). A gain adjust sequence is performed by the slow link level gain setting control loop to adjust the target gain(s) in response to various events and mechanisms. A "time of flight" protection method is also provided to ensure consistency between the fast local amplifier gain control loop and the slow link level gain setting control loop.

Title: Coating system for high temperature stainless steel
Inventor: TZATZOV KONSTANTIN K
IPC: C23C28/00
Filed: 2001-06-08
Granted: 2012-09-18
Abstract: A method for protecting carbon steel and stainless steel, and particularly high temperature stainless steel, from coking and corrosion at elevated temperatures in corrosive environments, such as during ethylene production by pyrolysis of hydrocarbons or the reduction of oxide ores, by coating the steel with a coating of MCrAlX or MCrAlXT in which M is nickel, cobalt, iron or a mixture thereof, X is yttrium, hafnium, zirconium, lanthanum, scandium or combination thereof, and T is silicon, tantalum, titanium, platinum, palladium, rhenium, molybdenum, tungsten, niobium, or combination thereof. The coating and substrate preferably are heat- treated at about 1000 to 1200°C for at least about 10 minutes, preferably about 20 minutes to 24 hours, effective to metallurgically bond the overlay coating to the substrate and to form a multiphased microstructure. The coating preferably is aluminized by depositing a layer of aluminum thereon and subjecting the resulting coating to oxidation at a temperature above about 1000°C for a time effective to form an alumina surface layer. An intermediary aluminum-containing interlayer may be deposited directly onto the substrate prior to deposition of the overlay coating and is heat-treated with the coating to form a protective interlayer between the stainless steel substrate and coating to disperse nitride formation at the substrate/coating interface. Also, the coating may be deposited onto and metallurgically bonded to the substrate by plasma transferred arc deposition of atomized powder of MCrAlXT, obviating the need for a separate heat treatment. Alternatively, a blended powder composition to produce a desired MCrAlXT alloy may be applied to the substrate.

Abstract: A spring mattress for beds, comprising a plurality of strings (2) which are interconnected side by side and comprise a continuous casing material (3) with a plurality of separate pockets (4) with coil springs (5) enclosed therein.  Moreover the casing material for at least some pockets is at least substantially airtight, thus providing a resistance to air being pressed out when the springs of the mattress are loaded, which, when subjected to a uniform load during a transition period (B), results in a gradually increasing depression of the spring to its depressed state. This results in a comfortable mattress, into which the user sinks gradually and which thus is comfortable and safe and allows the user to move easily. A corresponding method and device for manufacturing such a mattress are also described.

Granted: 2013-01-08
Abstract: Tamper detection apparatus for an electric meter (M) installed at a facility supplied power through an electrical distribution system, the meter being connected to the facility using a receptacle (K) and monitoring electricity usage at the facility for electricity delivered to the facility flowing through the meter. A sensor (RR) senses movement of the meter more than a predetermined amount with respect to the receptacle, whether or not electricity is flowing through the meter, and produces a tampering signal when this occurs. A second and optional sensor (Z) senses the proximity of the meter to its receptacle with removal of meter from its receptacle producing a tampering signal representative thereof.  Generation of a tampering signal results in a tamper alert signal being transmitted to the system through a two-way communications path established between the facility and the system.

Abstract: A process is provided for protecting a primate host from a self-replicating infection by an immunodeficiency retrovirus. Protection is achieved by administering to the primate host a combination of a pharmaceutically effective amount of a nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor and a pharmaceutically effective amount of a nucleotide reverse transcriptase inhibitor prior to exposure to the immunodeficiency retrovirus. The administration is effective if provided in a single dose within 24 hours of the exposure. A regime of regular daily doses is also effective in providing protection against an immunodeficiency retrovirus becoming self- replicating after infecting a primate host. A process for controlling retrovirus transmission within a population includes the administration to a subpopulation at high risk for contracting an immunodeficiency retroviral infection the detailed combination prior to sexual exposure to a source of immunodeficiency retrovirus so as to preclude the immunodeficiency retrovirus from becoming self-replicating in a member of the subpopulation.

Abstract: A system and method for selectively securing data from unauthorized access on a client device storing a plurality of data types with reference to an authorization level indicated in a command. A command is received at a client device comprising an authorization level indicator. Based on at least one predefined rule, which may be implemented in an IT policy stored at the client device, each of the plurality of data types to be secured is determined, and then the data corresponding to those types is secured. The data may be secured by encrypting and/or deleting the data at the client device. The predefined rules associated with each authorization level may be configured by a user or administrator having an authorization level that exceeds the associated authorization level. The system and method thus provide a method for securing only selected data types, depending on the authorization level of the issuer of the command.
