Abstract: The invention relates to a method of distributing digital video sequences in the form of streams comprising data sequences containing digital images. The inventive method comprises a modification step involving the modification of the original stream, in which at least one part of the aforementioned data sequences is modified to produce a modified stream with the same nominal format as the original stream. The method also comprises a modified stream transmission step and a decoder-assisted reconstruction step. The invention is characterised in that the reconstruction is adaptive and progressive according to information originating from a digital profile of the recipient. In one particular embodiment, the modification produces a main modified stream and complementary information which enables the original stream to be reconstructed by a decoder. Said method comprises a modified stream transmission step and, in addition, a step involving the transmission of a subset of the complementary modification information to a recipient device, said subset being determined according to information originating from a digital profile of the recipient. The invention also relates to a system which is used to implement the inventive method.

Abstract: The invention relates to an artificial intervertebral disc for placement between adjacent vertebrae. The artificial intervertebral disc is preferably designed to restore disc height and lordosis, allow for a natural range of motion, absorb shock and provide resistance to motion and axial compression. Furthermore, the intervertebral disc may be used in the cervical, the thoracic, or the lumber regions of the spine. The artificial intervertebral disc may include either singularly or in combination: an interior at least partially filled with a fluid; a valve for injecting fluid into the interior of the disk; a central region having a stiffness that is preferably greater than the stiffness of the outer regions thus enabling the disc to pivot about the central region. The central pivot may be formed by a center opening, a central chamber, an inner core or a central cable.

Abstract: The present invention provides a technique of providing a frame synchronization detector in an OFDM receiving apparatus to shorten the time before frame synchronization is established. A control information extraction unit extracts control information from a carrier signal, and a control information storage unit stores one frame of the control information. A reliability calculation unit calculates the reliability corresponding to the provisional symbol number output from a symbol number generation unit with reference to the control information stored in the control information storage unit. A maximum value detection unit compares a plurality of reliabilities calculated in the reliability calculation unit, and outputs the provisional symbol number when the maximum reliability is calculated, as a normal symbol number.

Abstract: A disk is segmented into a first data segment and a secondary data segment. The secondary data segment stores a logical mirror of the first data segment of another disk. Upon detecting a failure, the logical mirror of data stored in the first data segment of the failed disk is accessible from the secondary data segment of a non-failed disk. The first data segment can be rebuilt quickly on another disk from the logical mirror stored in the secondary data segment. During regenerating, accesses to the first data segment on the disk containing the logical mirror are handled by its own logical mirror, which is not involved in the regenerating process.
