摘要:
A method and apparatus for disabling the communication functionality (i.e., disabling the transmission and/or reception of RF signals) of an integrated device, while still providing access to the local functionality of such device. A control and select function, such as a switch that is implemented by hardware or software or a combination thereof, is provided in an integrated device to allow the end user of the device to access the local data processing functionality of the device, even while the wireless communication functionality of such device is disabled.

A welded pipe joint having reduced internal stresses comprises a pipe, a socket fitting, and an annular weld. The end surface of the fitting is chamfered in a concave profile, so that the weld profile subtends an angle of from about 100 degrees to about 120 degrees, rather than the customary 90 degrees. The fitting and the pipe are welded together by applying, from outside the pipe, an annulus of added bead metal to the chamfered end surface of the fitting so as to surround the chamfered end surface, and fusing the base metal of the annular wall and pipe. The pipe has no dam or other protuberance to confine the bead of added metal. Prior to welding, the fitting may have an annular lip immediately surrounding the surface of the pipe and may also have a ring spaced from the lip. The ring may be integral with the fitting and spaced from the lip by thin, radially spaced metal bars or may be separate from the fitting.

A local area network having fault detection and recovery and a method for detecting and recovering from faults in a local area network are disclosed. The network has modules interconnected by a token bus implemented by a pair of redundant cable systems. All of the modules are agent modules and one of the modules also serves as a master module. Each agent module periodically transmits an agent heartbeat signal on each of its cables. Each module monitors all of the agent heartbeat signals from all of the other modules. When a fault is detected by a module, such as missed agent heartbeat signals from another module, the module applies agent rules to determine if and how the fault should be reported. The agent module reports the fault to the master module. The master module collects fault reports from the agent modules, applies a set of master rules to the agent fault reports, and generates a master failure report. The master module also initiates an appropriate network recovery action based upon the failure report generated. The master module periodically transmits a master heartbeat signal on the token bus which is received by the agent modules. The agent modules decode the master heartbeat signal to ensure that a master module is always present on the token bus.

摘要:
Embodiments of a system and method of tagging network traffic with relevant user demographic and location information for facilitating the delivery of directed media are described. A tag processing module within a router device coupling a client computer to a destination site served by a server computer intercepts a request from a client computer to a server computer over a network. The tag processing module determines a unique device identifier corresponding to the client computer, generates a local user identifier for the client computer by performing a one-way hashing operation on the unique device identifier, derives demographic and location information for a user of the client computer, generates a request identifier associated with the intercepted request by encrypting the local user identifier, demographic information and geographic location information in an alphanumeric string, and embeds the alphanumeric string in an extensible field of a packet within the request to generate a tagged request identifier.

摘要:
A method for selectively etching higher aluminum concentration AlGaAs in the presence of lower aluminum concentration AlGaAs or GaAs, preferably at room temperature. The AlGaAs is first cleaned with a solution of NH.sub.4 OH and rinsed. The AlGaAs is then etched in a solution of HF. If photoresist is used on the AlGaAs, the photoresist may first be baked to increase the adhesion of the photoresist to the AlGaAs and to "toughen" the photoresist to reduce undercutting thereof. Agitation is applied to the AlGaAs or the etchant to assist in the uniform etching of the AlGaAs.
