Patent EP-0622938-A2 (EP)
Inventor: OTTO MARY RITA
IPC: H04M3/42
Filed: 1994-04-20
Abstract: An arrangement for providing Automatic Call Distribution (ACD) service from a mixture of local and remote agents. The remote agents (e.g. at 3) are connected via a voice connection (2,11) to the home switch (1) of the ACD and voice data connection (2,10) to a Home Agent Server (HAS) (6). The HAS (6) passes call event data to a Management Information System (MIS) (8) of the ACD, which informs the ACD switch (1) of call events that make a remote agent available or unavailable, and passes applications data to a host processor (7) for serving the applications of the ACD. Advantageously, ACD service can be provided efficiently and economically from a remote server.

Abstract: A sector servo, zone bit recording disk drive (202) includes a sector architecture in which the recording head (208) locates and identifies data sectors (254) without using data ID fields, but instead using information obtained from electronic storage (212,215) and from servo sectors (220) which need not be adjacent to the data sectors. The tracks contain servo information and data, but not data sector ID information. The tracks in each zone are circumferentially divided into segments. Included in each segment is a number of data regions separated from one another by servo sectors. The data regions may contain partial data sectors and complete data sectors. The format information provided to identify and locate data sectors, including ones whose region locations are not adjacent to servo sectors, includes an entry for each region in the section. Each entry includes the lengths of the first and last data sections in the region, whether the sectors represented by those sections are split between two regions, the total number of data sectors in the region, and the sector number of the first data sector in the region. The information provided in the servo sectors consists of a servo sector number or other indicia which enables the disk drive to determine the position of the recording head and begin reading or writing immediately upon settling on-track and without incurring a latency penalty.

Abstract: A processor-based packet memory interface for controlling the transfer of data between multiple communications channels and packet memory in a communications adapter is presented, where the communications adapter uses requestor IDs to identify transmit and receive processes. The processor-based packet memory interface is controlled by a microprocessor configured to perform read and write operations with the communications adapter. The microprocessor is further configured to reserve a plurality of blocks of memory in the packet memory so that the number of communications channels that can be supported is not limited to the number of requestor ID's that can be handled by the communications adapter. The processor-based packet memory interface also includes RAM, for use by the microprocessor, to store pointers to reserved blocks of memory in the packet memory and to temporarily store packet data for transfer between the communications channels and the communications adapter.

Abstract: A multi-paned insulated light, such as a window, incorporates an interior panel spacer/seal that includes a thermal insulating layer of cardboard (18). The cardboard (18) serves as a low cost insulating layer and may be used in conjunction with rolled or extruded metal spacer forms (17), so as to vastly diminish the thermal bridging effect normally present with such metallic sections (17). The cardboard spacer (18) can be used adjoining either the "cold" pane or the "hot" pane (12,14) of the multi-paned unit (10), or may be interposed between adjacent metallic sections, as a thermal break therebetween. The cardboard (18) is preferably sealed with a surface sealing layer such as polyvinyl alcohol, to effectively preclude gas percolation therepast. Alternatively, an effective gas seal such as polyvinyl alcohol may be incorporated into the cardboard at its time of manufacture.

Abstract: A hybrid system for synthesizing a compressed video bitstream from a dynamic 3-D model has been realized. The video bitstream represents an image sequence comprised of a plurality of image frames which are sequential in time and in which each image frame is partitioned into a set of regions. Motion vectors are generated for each region within a current image frame which represent the dynamic 3-D model. A prediction error is computed for each region based on the generated motion vectors. The type of encoding to be performed on each region in a succeeding image frame is determined based on the value of the prediction error. Each region in the succeeding image frame is encoded as indicated by the determined encoding type.

Abstract: A method of displaying continuously acquired measurement data in a display with a fixed number of pixels is provided. Measurement data is provided at a predetermined fixed sample rate independent of a pixel rate which is equal to or less than the sample rate. The measurement data is converted to pixel data which includes the minimum, maximum, and the average of the measurement data gathered and the pixel data is plotted to the pixels at a pixel rate. At the end of the fixed number of pixels of the display, the pixel values are compressed to half the fixed number of pixels and the pixel rate is halved, thereby doubling the time scale. This process can continue indefinitely, requiring no operator intervention or prior knowledge to set a total measurement time. Furthermore, the sample rate is independent of the pixel rate so that a tradeoff of sample rate and total measurement time need not be made.
