    摘要: A method and apparatus for registering a remote network device with a network control device. In one embodiment, the method comprises determining a network identification code stored within the remote network device and determining if the network identification code comprises a default network identification code. If the network identification code comprises a default network identification code, transmitting a message indicative of a request to join an existing network and determining whether a first response to the transmitted message was received. If a first response to the transmitted message was received, determining a second network identification code from the first response, and assigning the second network identification code to the remote network device.

    摘要: A transducer is used to send an ultrasound pulse toward a stone and to receive ultrasound reflections from the stone. The recorded time between a pulse that is reflected from the proximal surface and a pulse that is reflected either from the distal surface of the stone or from a surface supporting the stone is used to calculate the stone size. The size of the stone is a function of the time between the two pulses and the speed of sound through the stone (or through the surrounding fluid if the second pulse was reflected by the surface supporting the stone). This technique is equally applicable to measure the size of other in vivo objects, including soft tissue masses, cysts, uterine fibroids, tumors, and polyps.

    摘要: System and method for distinguishing colors of illuminated objects using machine vision. A color-balanced image that includes at least one lit area is received, as well as an indication of a region of interest that includes one of the one or more lit areas. A mask image is generated based on the region of interest. A color-balanced image of the region of interest is generated by masking the color-balanced image with the mask image, and a plurality of image attributes for the region of interest is determined by analyzing the color-balanced image of the region of interest. A color is determined based on the plurality of image attributes using a trained classifier, and the determined color stored, e.g., in a memory medium.

    摘要: A network architecture with load balancing, fault tolerance and distributed querying comprises a plurality of front-end servers, a plurality of back-end servers, and a database. The front-end servers are coupled to a network to receive data requests from client devices. The front-end servers are each coupled to the plurality of back-end servers. The front-end servers handle data requests at a macro level and divide the request into sub-requests that are sent to the plurality of back-end servers. The back-end servers are coupled to the database to retrieve data. Each data request is distributed across the plurality of back-end servers according to workload. The front-end servers are fault tolerant in that they can respond to a request for data without all of the back-end servers being responsive or providing data. The present invention also includes a plurality of methods including: a method for distributed querying, a method for loading data sets from a database, and a method for responding to a query that provides fault tolerance.

    摘要: A radiation detector (10) has a base (30), a frame (48), a window (46), and solder layers (50, 52) formed from a solder pre-form (58, 60) to define a vacuum chamber (56). Feedthroughs (18, 40, 44) penetrate the base (30) for electrical connection to internal components. A method for sealing the detector (10) aligns a lower detector assembly (62), the frame (48) the window (46), and the solder pre-forms (58, 60) in a non-sealed relation within a processing chamber (80, 94). High temperature and low pressure is imposed, and the getter (42) is activated by resistive heating imposed by current leads (88). The window (46), frame (48), and lower detector assembly (62) are then pressed together and sealed by the liquefied solder pre-forms (58, 60). The method eliminates the need for a seal port, combines several steps within the processing chamber (80, 94), and eliminates certain prior art cleaning steps.

    摘要: A process is provided for making a composite work article suitable for fabricating rigid sheet metal can components. A steel sheet having first and second surfaces is pre-treated to enhance reception and retention of a multi-layer polymer coating on the pre-treated first surface. The multi-layer polymer coating is melt extruded on the pre-treated first surface and beyond opposite lateral edges of the work article to establish overhang portions, then solidified. The multi-layer polymeric coating has a tie polymeric layer contacting the pre-treated first surface, and a finish-surface polymeric layer. The solidified overhang portions are trimmed, and the extruded multi-layer polymeric coating is subjected to finish-treatment, involving heating the extruded multi-layer polymeric coating at least to a melt temperature thereof, then cooling the multi-layer polymeric coating through glass-transition temperature thereof at a sufficiently rapid rate to establish amorphous non-directional characteristics in the polymeric coating.
