Abstract: A computer program provides fast generation and testing of probable prime numbers for cryptographic applications. The program instructions executed on computer hardware execute steps that include a smart increment program function that finds successive candidates using a table of congruent values that are relatively prime to a selected set of very small primes do identify an increment to the next candidate, thereby sieving out about 3/4ths of the really obvious components that don't need to be subjected to trial division. The program instructions also include a small primes testing program functio n that speeds trial division against a list of small primes by carrying out th e division on modular reduced values rather than the very large candidates themselves. Only the about 10 % of the candidates that pass the small primes test will then be subjected to more rigorous, but time consuming, probable primality tests.

Title: Methods and apparatus for controlling flare in roll-forming processes
Inventor: GREEN JASON E
IPC: B21D5/08
Filed: 2005-02-17
Abstract: Methods and apparatus for controlling flare in roll-forming processes are disclosed. An example flare control system determines a first location of a formed component associated with a roll-forming process and adjusts a roller to a first position in response to determining the first location of the formed component. Adjusting the roller to the first position causes the roller to contact a surface of the formed component. The example flare control system then moves the roller from the first position to a second position. The second position is associated with a second location of the formed component. The first position and the second position are associated with controlling the flare in the formed component.

Inventor: SHEN KUO CHENG
IPC: C08H8/00
Filed: 2003-05-01
Abstract: This invention relates to a process for making dimensionally stable reconstituted composite products from lignocellulosic material. By treating lignocellulose with high pressure steam to decompose and hydrolyse the hemicellulose and lignin fractions of the lignocellulose and using those decomposition products as both a bonding and bulking agent "in situ", it converts, under heat and pressure in a moulding operation, the treated lignocellulose into composite products such as panel boards and moulded articles. The composite products possess good physical and mechanical properties. The adhesive bond developed from thermosetting of the decomposition products of hemicellulose and lignin is strong, stable, resistant to boiling water and acid hydrolysis and is free of formaldehyde emissions. Thus, the reconstituted panel boards and moulded products are appropriate for both exterior and interior applications.  The manufacturing cost for the reconstituted products is significantly lower in comparison to the conventional process because expensive synthetic resin is not used.

Title: Method for breaking a flap-valve attachment condition under a membrane cover
Inventor: DEGARIE CLAUDE J
IPC: C02F3/28
Filed: 2005-04-14
Abstract: In a covered wastewater reservoir, a gas passage is defined under the membrane cover and along the sides of the reservoir. An accumulation of bio-gases is held captive between the membrane cover and the liquid surface in a central region of the reservoir relative to the gas passage, by a flap-valve attachment condition extending between the accumulation of bio-gases and the gas passage. The new method for breaking this flap-valve attachment condition and for allowing bio-gases to flow from the accumulation of bio-gases toward the gas passage, consists of periodically and momentarily increasing a pressure in the gas passage to equal or to slightly exceed a pressure in the accumulation of bio-gases. In another aspect, the membrane cover is provided with a stiff and rough-surfaced bottom layer to facilitate the breaking of flap-valve attachment conditions when the pressure under the cover is made equal everywhere.

Title: System for secure decryption of streaming media using selective decryption of header information
Inventor: DIAMAND JOSEPH
IPC: H04N7/16
Filed: 2004-01-14
Abstract: A system provides improved security in a streaming media decoder includes decryption of encoded media information at the media layer, within a decoder component of a playback device 100. A content source, such as an MPEG-4 media stream from a network, or a file on a local storage device, etc. that contains packetized content, and supplies encrypted and encoded media information 110.  A reassembler component 120 is used to initiate decryption of a nominal amount of information needed to perform further processing at the QuickTime player.  Encrypted access units are sent from the reassembler 120 to the decoder 140, where the decoder 140 causes decryption of the access unit information. This approach prevents decrypted, encoded information from being transferred from the reassembler 120 to the decoder 140. Such decrypted and encoded information is especially susceptible to copying. Instead, the information transferred from the reassembler 120 to the decoder 140 is largely still encrypted. In a preferred embodiment, an Internet Protocol rights management system (IPRM) 150 is used to perform the decryption processing. The reassembler 120 makes requests of the IPRM process 150 to open a decryption session and decrypts selected packets to identify the window rendering size. The decoder 140 makes requests of the IPRM process 150 to decrypt access units within the same decryption session and to close the decryption session. Because content is encrypted on packet boundaries, and when called upon by the decoder 140, the IPRM component 150 must recreate the packet boundaries from the access unit before decryption is possible. The IPRM system component 150 is able to do so because the encrypted packets contain an IPRM header that is used by the IPRM  system 150 to calculate the packet length. After decrypting all the packets, the IPRM system component 150 reconstructs the decrypted access unit and returns decrypted content to the decoder 140.

Title: Communication method between set-top box and smart card and interface module used for the same
Inventor: KIM GI-SEOP
IPC: H04N5/00
Filed: 2005-08-22
Abstract: Disclosed herein is a communication method between a set-top box and a smart card and interface module used for the same. In the communication method of the present invention, a Set-Top Box (STB) communicates with a smart card through a Recommended Standard (RS)-232C serial interface when providing information to the smart card and receiving an encryption key (Control Word: CW) from the smart card so as to descramble a scrambled Transport Stream (TS) after receiving the scrambled TS, in a case where a broadcast is received using the STB.      The interface module of the present invention includes a smart card connector, a signal converter, a clock provider and a power/reset unit. The smart card connector accommodates the smart card, and transmits and receives signals to and from the smart card. The signal converter receives a signal from the STB through an input terminal, transmits the signal to the smart card through the smart card connector, receives a signal from the smart card through the smart card connector, and transmits the signal to the STB through an output terminal, thus performing half duplex communication. The clock provider provides a clock signal to the smart card connector. The power/reset unit supplies power and a reset signal to the smart card connector.

Title: Dishwasher modular exhaust vent
Inventor: RETSEMA ANDREW J
IPC: A47L15/42
Filed: 2005-10-12
Abstract: A modular exhaust vent for use in venting a wash chamber of a dishwasher, such as during a dry cycle, comprises a housing that forms an exhaust flow path from the wash chamber to the exterior of the dishwasher and a valve operable for pivotal movement about a pivot axis between an opened and closed position for selectively closing the exhaust flow path. An actuator for moving the valve is connected to the valve by a link such that activation of the actuator effects movement of the link to pivot the valve to either the opened or closed position. Further, the valve selectively closes the exhaust flow path at an inlet to impede introduction of sound into the exhaust flow path.
