摘要： A method and computer program product are presented for selecting and arranging an appropriate combination of network components, or elements, in a communications network. The selection of network components is done in a manner that maximizes the net present value of cash flow resulting from the provision of communications services between nodes of the network. The method comprises the steps of receiving information that constrains network design and price establishment, and then using the constraint information to select a combination of network components for each link in the communications network. According to the invention, the selection of network components is performed for each of several successive time periods, effectively planning the evolution of the network. The selections are made so that the network components satisfy demand over time while maximizing the net present value of the cash flow that results from the provision of communications services.

摘要： A phase locked loop (10) has a first (24) and a second (28) feedback path by which a generated clock signal may be phase and frequency matched to an input reference clock signal. The two feedback paths are delay matched so either one may be used to maintain "PLL lock." However, the first path consumes significantly less power than the second path. Control circuitry (22) selects which path is fed back through a multiplexer (126) and disables the second path when the path is not needed.

摘要： A dynamic financial caricature graphic whereby financial data associated with a user is obtained from one or more sources. The financial data associated with a user obtained from one or more sources is then aggregated and/or categorized/re-categorized to generate a personalized financial caricature graphic that is a visual representation of the user and the user's financial situation. The visual characteristics of the dynamic financial caricature graphic, such as size, weight, height, clothing, color, accessories, etc., are chosen based on the financial data associated with a user obtained from one or more sources and/or one or more criteria provided. The user's financial data is then monitored and the visual characteristics of the dynamic financial caricature graphic are changed and/or updated in accordance with changes in the financial data associated with the user obtained from the one or more sources.

摘要： A method and system are provided where image data is encoded in the spatial domain, and transformed in a two dimensional transform process to thereby recover a frequency domain representation of the image data. The frequency domain representation is then quantized to obtain an integer representation. The integer representation is ordered by frequency. Then, the hi-frequency coefficients are recreated and intelligently randomized at selective frequencies. This provides high quality encoded picture results, with fewer artifacts than those that would result from conventional approaches afflicted by artifacts due to loss of high frequencies.

摘要： The invention provides a cuvette apparatus having two cavities that are in fluid communication with each other. The first cavity is larger than the second cavity an receives a fluid to be studied. The second cavity holds the fluid for analysis and is bounded by at least two thin walled windows that allow superior transmission of UV waves, The invention also provides a cuvette cap that can be affixed to the cuvette and which seals the cuvette, thus preventing potentially dangerous vapors from escaping from the cuvette.

摘要： An impulse-reducing module (200) reduces random noise in video pixels by providing an impulse detector (244) and an impulse reducer, such as a median filter (250). The impulse detector (244) generates filter control signals in response to detection of impulses, and the median filter (250) generates filtered pixel values in response to the filter control signals. The control signals set the median filter to a plurality of filter operating modes.

摘要： A temperature sensor (1800) incorporates two diodes (1802, 1804). The voltage difference across each diode is a linear function of temperature. The voltage difference between the two diodes is also a function of the ratio of their respective sizes. These relationships can be used to build a sensor that is inexpensive, reliable, and whose process variance is predictable.

摘要： A charge pump has a reference circuitry (18, 20, 22), a first parallel current path (16), at least one second parallel current path (16), a mirror circuit (46), a sourcing circuitry (60, 62) and a sinking circuitry (50, 54, 66, 68). The first and the at least one second parallel current path sink current from a first node responsive to a predetermined voltage generated by the reference circuitry. The at least one second current path also operates responsive to a control signal. The mirror circuit generates a second predetermined voltage responsive to the total current sunk from the first node. The sourcing circuitry and the sinking circuitry sourcing and sinking a current from the output node, respectively, responsive to the second predetermined voltage and to a control signal. The disclosed charge pump may be incorporated into a phase locked loop circuit where constant stability parameters are desired.
