摘要:
A vehicle tracking device (101), method and/or system are provided. The device (101) includes a location interface (117), for receiving a location signal indicating a current location when operably connected to a GPS antenna; a sensor interface (109), for receiving sensor signals from sensors in the vehicle indicating a sensed status of the vehicle, when electrically or electronically connected to the sensors; and a processor (105). The processor (105) is configured to facilitate receiving, from the location interface, indications of a current location; determining, responsive to the location signal, a determined current location of the vehicle (127); receiving, from the sensor interface, a sensed status of the vehicle (129); recording a pre-defined event condition, when the pre-defined event condition occurs (131) responsive to the sensed status, in a vehicle history; and recording the determined current location in the vehicle history (133).
摘要:
A system and method for controlling the movement of plural trains over a rail network, where the rail network is divided into at least one control area with a dispatcher assigned to manage the movement of trains in a control area by predicting the occurrence of events along the network based on the movement plan and prompting the dispatcher to provide information or take specified actions relating to the predicted events.

At least one flexible appliance (120) and related method (300) for orthogonal, non-planar interconnections of at least a first electronic interface (115) disposed on a substrate (110) to an associated second electronic interface (161) positioned beneath the substrate (110). The flexible appliance (120) is comprised of a planar body (121) having at least one electrical connector (122) extending from and orthogonally oriented relative to the planar body (121). In one aspect of the invention, the electrical connector (122) is four electrical connectors (122). There is at least one aperture (112) formed in the substrate (110) for allowing the first electronic interface (115) to be electrically interconnected to the associated second electronic interface (161). The flexible appliance (120) is positioned on the substrate (110) by automated means. Contacts pads (123, 124) on the resilient connector (122) are electrically connected to the second electronic interface (161) and the first electronic interface (115) by automated means such as soldering, thermo sonic bonding, or gap welding.

An active network defense system is provided that is operable to monitor and block traffic in an automated fashion. This active network defense system is placed in-line with respect to the packet traffic data flow as a part of the network infrastructure. In this configuration, inspection and manipulation of every passing packet is possible. An algorithmic filtering operation applies statistical threshold filtering to the data flow in order to identify threats existing across multiple sessions. A trigger filtering operation applies header and content match filtering to the data flow in order to identify threats existing within individual sessions. Threatening packet traffic is blocked and threatening sessions are terminated. Suspicious traffic is extracted from the data flow for further examination with more comprehensive content matching as well as asset risk analysis. A flow control mechanism is provided to control passage rate for packets passing through the data flow.

The present invention provides processes and intermediates for the preparation of 3-benzazepines and salts thereof which can be useful as serotonin (5-HT) receptor agonists for the treatment of, for example, central nervous system disorders such as obesity.
摘要:
A grooming stand includes a base, a platform with at least one peripheral surface, and at least one leg extending between the base and the platform. A gutter is disposed around a portion of the peripheral surface of the platform. The gutter is configured to receive clippings from the animal.

A system is provided for selecting connection paths in a telecommunications network having a multiplicity of nodes interconnected by a multiplicity of links. The system identifies multiple constraints for connection paths through the network between source and destination nodes, and identifies paths that satisfy all of the constraints for a connection path between a selected source node and a selected destination node. A system is also provided for optimizing utilization of the resources of such a telecommunications network by establishing connection paths through the network between selected source and destination nodes, the established connection paths satisfying the constraints; for each established connection path, determining whether other connection paths exist between the selected source and destination nodes, and that satisfy the constraints; and if at least one such other connection path exists, determining whether any such other connection path is more efficient than the established connection path and, if the answer is affirmative, switching the connection from the established connection path to the most efficient other connection path.

Locating hardware faults in a parallel computer, including defining within a tree network of the parallel computer two or more sets of non-overlapping test levels of compute nodes of the network that together include all the data communications links of the network, each non-overlapping test level comprising two or more adjacent tiers of the tree; defining test cells within each non-overlapping test level, each test cell comprising a subtree of the tree including a subtree root compute node and all descendant compute nodes of the subtree root compute node within a non-overlapping test level; performing, separately on each set of non-overlapping test levels, an uplink test on all test cells in a set of non-overlapping test levels; and performing, separately from the uplink tests and separately on each set of non-overlapping test levels, a downlink test on all test cells in a set of non-overlapping test levels.
摘要:
A method and a machine readable storage for handling failures during security exchanges between a station (125) having a wireless network adapter (130) and a first access point (110) of a wireless local area network (WLAN) (105). As part of a WLAN association process, the method can include transmitting from the station to the first access point a message including a station identifier (170). A first protocol exchange timer (180) also can be started. Responsive to a timeout of the first protocol exchange timer, an association retry counter can be incremented. The WLAN association process can be restarted if the association retry counter is not greater than a retry counter threshold. If the association retry counter is greater than the retry counter threshold, the wireless network adapter can be commanded to enter sleep mode.
