Patent CA-2325414-A1 (CA)
Inventor: TORREY JASON P
IPC: H04M3/42
Filed: 2000-11-07
Abstract: A system and method for processing call signaling to determine if a call is a ported call or a non-ported call. A signaling processor determines if a ported number parameter (PNP), such as a forward call indicator (FCI) bit M and/or a ported number generic address parameter (GAP), is present. If the PNP is not present and the signaling processor determines the dialed number is a member of a portable number plan area and central office code combinations (NPA-NXX), the signaling processor queries a ported number database (PNDB). The PNDB responds with the called number dialed digits if the call is not a ported call or a location routing number (LRN) if the call is a ported call. The signaling processor appends a 1 to the nature of address (NOA) subfield of the called party number (CdPN) field if the call is a ported call. The signaling processor then partitions the call signaling parameters between ported or non-ported routing table translations, depending on whether the NOA is appended or not, to determine call routing connections and new call signaling. The appended 1 of the appended NOA is removed prior to building an outgoing call signaling message.

IPC: B65D75/58
Filed: 2000-11-22
Abstract: A reclosable packaged food container, comprising an outer carton and an inner flexible liner. The outer carton has a generally semi-rigid construction, the inner liner is positioned inside the outer carton, and a supply of a food product is disposed in that liner. The outer carton includes a top wall that, in turn, includes first and second opposing top flaps. These flaps are movable between closed and open positions; and in the open position, the top flaps form a top opening, longitudinally extending only partly across the length of the top wall, to provide access to the inner liner. The inner liner includes a top edge and a top portion. That top edge is adapted to form a reclosable pour opening at the top of the top portion of the liner. In addition, the top portion of the liner is adapted to form a collapsible pouring spout extending only partly across the top edge of the liner and also extending through the top opening in the carton to dispense the food product from the liner. When the flaps of the carton are in the open position, the flaps extend upwardly from the top opening of the carton and form a spout guide to engage the top portion of the liner, on opposite sides thereof, to help form and to hold that top portion of the liner in the shape of the pouring spout.

Title: Digital content billing system using networks
Inventor: KIKUCHI KATSUAKI
IPC: G06F21/10
Filed: 2000-12-04
Abstract: An administrator contracts with an advertiser and a holder holding a right to let a third person use digital content.  The holder sets the digital content to become usable by using an execution key, downloads the execution key to the administrator through a network,and downloads the digital content not made usable to a distributor through the network. The distributor downloads the digital content to a user through the network. When the user sends an execution declaration of the digital content to the administrator, the administrator downloads the execution key and an advertising information piece received from the advertiser to the user through the network. Therefore, the user can use the digital content made usable by the execution key while seeing the advertising information piece. Thereafter, the administrator collects an advertisement rate corresponding to the number of execution times of the digital content from the advertiser and pays an execution fee corresponding to the number of execution times of the digital content to the holder.  Accordingly, the user can enjoy a desired digital content without charge, and the administrator is not required to collect the execution fee from each of many users.

Abstract: A hardfacing for downhole progressing cavity pumps is disclosed as well as a method for producing same. The hardfacing consists of a ceramic layer applied to a ferrous pump rotor body by way of plasma spraying and a top layer of metallic material having a lower hardness than the ceramic. The ceramic layer has a grainy surface with a plurality of peaks and intermediate depressions, the peaks being formed by ceramic grains at the surface of the ceramic layer. The thickness of the top layer is adjusted such that the depressions between the peaks of the ceramic layer are completely filled thereby providing the rotor with a ceramic hardfacing of significantly reduced surface roughness. In the process of the invention, the pump rotor, which may be provided with a molybdenum bonding layer, is plasma coated with the ceramic and the resulting ceramic layer is covered with the metallic material top layer. The top layer is polished either until the dimensions thereof are within the tolerances acceptable for the finished rotor or until a majority of the peaks of the ceramic layer are exposed.

Title: Method and apparatus for spatial and temporal filtering of intravascular ultrasonic image data
Inventor: ZHANG XIANGMIN
IPC: G06T1/00
Filed: 1999-07-29
Abstract: A method and an apparatus (10) are provided for combining spatial and temporal filtering for blood speckle reduction in high frequency ultrasound images wherein a sequence of image frames (input 12) is processed to produce a binary mask. In this mask, a first value is assigned to regions of identified blood speckles and a second value is assigned to regions of the remainder. The images are then modulated with the mask to produce output frame (14), i.e., by applying different filtering techniques to assigned blood regions and assigned nonblood (i.e., tissue) regions, the filtering techniques having been selected to optimize images for the type of feature to be highlighted based on differences in frequency sensitivity between blood and tissue. The images are preferably in polar coordinate format. The degree of blood speckle suppression can be determined based on the actual values of the pixels at the same spatial location in given frames.
