Abstract: A network browser system facilitates browsing of resources in a network, each of the
resources having a respective network address. The network browser system includes a
browsing control list (30) and a browsing computer. The browsing control list includes at
least one network specifier entry that identifies at least a portion of the network, the portion
having associated therewith a range of network addresses. The browsing computer is
responsive to a browsing request from an operator to initiate a browsing operation in
connection with the network. During the browsing operation, the browsing computer
generates, from the network specifier entry in the browsing control list, a plurality of
browsing request messages that are associated with respective ones of the network addresses
in the network address range, and transmits the browsing request messages over the network.
The resources in a network whose network addresses correspond to network addresses in the
transmitted browsing request messages receive the respective request messages, and transmit
in response browsing response messages to the browsing computer. Each browsing response
message includes browsing information, such as a name or other textual identifier for the
resource, which the browsing computer can display to the operator.

Abstract: A metal-core weld wire usable for gas shielded arc
welding gapless joints on low carbon and low alloy
galvanized and galvanealed steels. The metal-core weld wire
includes a low carbon steel sheath surrounding a core
composition. In one embodiment, the low carbon steel sheath
includes, by total weight of the metal-core weld wire,
between approximately 0.01 - 0.03 % C, and the core
composition includes, by total weight of the metal-core
weld wire, between approximately 0.05 - 0.20 % Ti, between
approximately 0.05 - 1.00 % Nb, Fe powder, and Mn to the
extent that the metal-core weld wire includes between
approximately 0.1 - 1.0 % Mn wherein the metal-core weld
wire includes between approximately 0.1 - 1.0 % Si. The
core composition is, by total weight of the metal-core weld
wire, between approximately 0.001 - 12.0 %. The metal-core
weld wire provides, at weld rates up to 150 cm/min, reduced
arc ionization potential and spatter, and improved arc
stability and shielding. The metal-core weld wire produces,
at weld rates up to 150 cm/min, weld deposits having
reduced blow holes and porosity, no liquid metal
embrittlement, and reduced weld pool surface tension
resulting in an improved wetting characteristic.

Abstract: A digitized image is divided into blocks and a wavelet
transform is performed, producing wavelet blocks which are
quantized, scanned into linear sequences, then coded. The
scanning of each wavelet block starts with a purely low-frequency
element. The high-frequency elements are scanned
in a sequence that depends on the occurrence of non-zero
elements among the high-frequency elements. When a non-zero
element is scanned, this information is used to proceed
quickly to related high-frequency elements. This scanning
method tends to produce a linear sequence in which non-zero
elements are clustered together. Such sequences can be
coded efficiently.

Abstract: This invention relates to a method by means of which more than one audio signal
can be recorded in compressed form in a memory element, and to a system
implementing such a method. In the system according to the invention, audio signal
samples are recorded only when voice is detected in the audio signals. The system
according to the invention saves memory capacity required by the recording by
combining the audio signal samples when voice is detected in samples of more than
one audio signal. Furthermore, an audio signal is not recorded when no voice is
detected in the signal. The invention also reduces the average computing capacity
needed and thus power consumption, since signal combination, or mixing, is
advantageously performed only when voice is detected in the samples of more than
one audio signal.

Abstract: Disclosed is an exhaust gas recirculation
system for an engine having a high compression ratio or
with a supercharger. An outside EGR duct connecting the
exhaust system to the intake system is provided with a
first control valve, which has a second outside EGR duct
bypassing the first control valve. The second EGR duct
has a second EGR control valve and a cooler. When the
engine exists in an extremely low load state, the first
and second control valves are closed to inhibit the
outside EGR. In the light load state, the first control
valve is opened while the second control valve is
closed, thereby allowing recirculation of the EGR gases
having high temperature and reducing the pumping loss.
In the high load state, the first control valve is being
closed while opening the second control valve, thereby
increasing a recirculation ratio of EGR gases cooled by
the cooler and performing both an improvement of anti-knocking
performance and a decrease in pumping loss, as
well as reducing the heat load of the exhaust system and
within the engine.

Abstract: A secure and scalable system and method is described
for carrying out database transactions over a network. A
transaction server on a network authenticates a user
connected to the network with a client. The database
access permission of the user is determined, and the
transaction server sends a graphical user interface that
comports with the access permission of the user to the
client. The transaction server receives a user database
request from the client based upon inputs provided by the
user through the graphical user interface. The
transaction server selects an action statement with formal
parameters based upon the user database request. The
action statement is evaluated by replacing its formal
parameters with values from the user database request.
The evaluated action statement is executed on a database,
and the results are sent to the client, where they are
displayed to the user through the graphical user
interface.

Abstract: A data reader and a method of operation thereof, for reading
objects such as barcode labels on consumer products. The data
reader, such as fixed or portable scanner, includes an object
sensor incorporated therein, the sensor detecting the presence of
an object in an object detection volume. Object detection serves
as a trigger to activate the scanner when it has entered a sleep
or power conservation mode. The object detection volume is
substantially distinct from the scan volume and positioned so
that the usual path of objects moved through the scan volume
passes through the object detection volume before passing through
the scan volume. In this way the scanner may be activated prior
to the arrival of the object in the scan volume, thereby ensuring
that the barcode scanner is properly activated, initialized,
and/or stabilized when the object enters the scan volume and/or
facilitating object positioning within the scan volume.
