摘要:
A method, system and computer readable medium box is disclosed for determining a networked device connection status of an IP set top. A signal strength parameter request is generated associated with the networked device's operation. This request is transmitted to a specific point in a network system where it is received at specific hardware and/or software point. Then a reply or signal strength parameter is generated in response to the signal strength parameter request. This reply or signal strength parameter is transmitted across the network system from the specific hardware and/or software point back to the networked device. There it is loaded into a signal strength parameter variable and displayed to the user.

A method, device and computer readable medium that measures the error rate in a network data stream to a device, for example a Set Top Box. The method including joining one or more multicast groups representing audio and or video data for a requested channel; discarding a predetermined number of received packets for each of the joined multicast groups; and comparing a sequence number of a first packet received subsequent to the predetermined number of discarded packets to a sequence number of a next subsequent received packet in order to determine a sequence error. The method may further include tracking sequence numbers of received packets for one or more of the joined multicast groups; incrementing a packets received counter for each received packet for one or more of the joined multicast groups; and comparing each received sequence number with the next received sequence number in order to determine sequence errors.
摘要:
A system and method is described for using areas in or near photo global alignment marks or in or near unpatterned areas of a semiconductor wafer to create structures for secondary ion mass spectroscopy (SIMS) testing or electron beam (E-Beam) testing or X-ray diffraction (XRD) testing of the semiconductor wafer. The present invention makes it possible to obtain wafer level information about the front-end processing of the semiconductor wafers. The SIMS/E-Beam/XRD testing measures characteristics such as the dopant content, thickness variations, and defect density of the wafers. The present invention eliminates the need to build individual test structures within product dies and eliminates the need to build scribe line structures near the product dies.

A mobile content distribution system in an airplane, a train, or a bus is capable of receiving wireless broadcast channels from a wireless service provider. The system offers a user purchase of wireless services including one or more broadcast channels provided by the wireless service provider, receives information indicative of a route from an originating location to a destination location, and determines if the content distribution system is authorized to receive services from the wireless service provider according to the information; and if the content distribution system is not authorized to receive services from the wireless service provider according to the information, the system provide a refund to the user. If the system is within an authorized area, the system determines if the system is authorized to provide full service from the wireless service provider according to the information and if the system is not authorized to provide full service, the system provides a partial refund to the user.
摘要:
A mobile content distribution system in an airplane, a train, or a bus is capable of determining if a mobile content distribution system is within an area authorized for the mobile content distribution system to receive content from a wireless service provider and displaying channels from the wireless service provider accordingly. If the system is not within the authorized area, the system displays a program guide including channels from locally stored content but no channel from the wireless service provider. If the system is within the authorized area and a user indicates live wireless program guide information is needed, the system acquires the live wireless program guide information and displays the program guide includes channels from the locally stored content and channels from the wireless service provider.

A structure such as a demountable building (10) including a base (11), a plurality of modular units (12–17) which are arranged for connection to the base (11). Each unit is fitted out with functional elements to enable that unit to perform a predetermined function in the operation of the building (10). Each unit (12–17) and its associated functional elements being operative to be connected to, or removed from, the base (11) as a single unit.
