Abstract:
A method of Authentication Authorization and Accounting (AAA) in an interworking between first and second networks that do not belong in the same asministrative domain, using certificate based transactions. In the method according to the invention, the second network sends a public key to the first network, and a certificate to a mobile device. The certificate includes information regarding the subscription level of the mobile device and is signed with a private key of the second network. Upon detection of the first network the mobile device transmits the certificate and the first network authenticates the certificate using the public and private keys of the second network, and authorizes access to the network in response. The first network then sends a session key encrypted with a public key of the mobile device. The mobile device decrypts the session key with a private key and access the first network using the session key. In this manner, interworking is implemented without requiring the deployment of a special interworking function to bridge between the two different types of networks.
Abstract:
Systems and methods according to the present invention provide the capability to identify, record and employ object reuse in print jobs. Reuse information, e.g., a number of instances of a particular object and/or the pages wherein the object is used, is identified as part of print job processing. Subsequent printing process, e.g., object caching and print job partitioning, can then use the reuse information.
Abstract:
Methods for manufacturing a composite rubber tire with a polyurethane tread comprise: treating an outer surface of an internal rubber body; preparing a polyurethane pre-polymer; improving the polyurethane pre-polymer; and applying the polyurethane pre-polymer to the treated outer surface of the internal rubber body to mold a polyurethane tread. Thereby, the composite rubber tire with the polyurethane tread is achieved and has excellent characteristics such as low rolling resistance, low oil consumption, excellent durability and low environmental contamination. Additionally, the methods constitute simple manufacturing processes that reduce manufacturing costs of the composite rubber tire with the polyurethane tread.
Abstract:
A mounting apparatus includes a storage bracket (30), an operating member (60), a locking member (50) and a pair of springs (70). The operating member has at least one slant portion (647). The locking member is restrained from moving along with the operating member. The locking member has at least one inserting pin (54) and at least one sliding tab (56). The springs press on the locking member to urge the inserting pin to extend into the storage bracket. The inserting pin of the locking member is lifted out of the storage bracket by the slant portion of the operating member edging the sliding tab of the locking member out, when the operating member is pushed.
Abstract:
A business model is described in which one entity hosts, maintains, and provides a uniform interface for entering data into, a database of manufacturers product specification on behalf of a plurality of manufacturers. The entity then serves as an application service provider (ASP) with respect to that database, by allowing the manufacturers to access their respective product specification data in the database for any of a variety of uses outside of the database in exchange for some form of remuneration from those manufacturers.
Abstract:
A process is provided for preparing 4-alkyl- or 4-aryl-oxycarbonyl paclitaxel analogs which includes the steps of converting paclitaxel into a C-7 acylprotected paclitaxel employing an electrophilic protecting group, such as benzoyloxycarbonyl, and converting the C-7 protected analog into the 4-alkyloxycarbonyl or 4-aryloxycarbonyl paclitaxel analog. Novel intermediates produced in the process are also provided.
Abstract:
Nanowire devices may be provided that are based on carbon nanotubes or single-crystal semiconductor nanowires. The nanowire devices may be formed on a substrate. Catalyst sites may be formed on the substrate. The catalyst sites may be formed using lithography, thin metal layers that form individual catalyst sites when heated, collapsible porous catalyst-filled microscopic spheres, microscopic spheres that serve as masks for catalyst deposition, electrochemical deposition techniques, and catalyst inks. Nanowires may be grown from the catalyst sites.
Abstract:
