Abstract: A method is provided to control a paper-processing machine. Following an occurrence of at least one error, the error is automatically detected with at least one detection device. Following the detection of the error, a measure is automatically introduced to counteract the error. The measure is then canceled at least in part if the error no longer occurs or the machine is stopped completely if the error is still detected by the detection device following completion of a predetermined criterion.

Abstract: Revenue leakage is one of the major concerns of telecom operators worldwide. There are several reasons for revenue leakage including frauds, data loss, poor utilization of network infrastructure, and churn. With the growth in subscriber base and increased competition in the market space, the lack of control on revenue leak could potentially affect the profit margins drastically. The operators are ever looking for solutions that could limit the various aspects of the revenue leakage. A system and method for addressing revenue leakage due to data loss in general and incomplete/partial data in particular needs to handle the issues related to the obtaining of additional information so that incomplete/partial data records lead to additional billing opportunity for the operators.

Abstract: A CCD such as a frame transfer CCD has an extended dynamic range. The image built up in the image region 1 in each integration period is transferred to the store region 2 in each frame transfer period, for example, at a TV signal rate. The dynamic range is increased by dividing the integration period into two parts, and clipping the signal in the first part, but not in the second. The signal is clipped by pulsing the clock electrodes of the image region so as to combine the charges from adjacent wells together, overspill being drained into the anti-blooming structure, consequently reducing well capacity.

Abstract: A semiconductor apparatus for reducing unnecessary current consumption disclosed. The semiconductor apparatus includes: a clock signal transmission unit that selectively transmits a clock signal in accordance with the frequency of the clock signal at an operation standby mode. A delay locked loop generates a DLL clock signal on the basis of the clock signal inputted through the clock signal transmission unit. The delay locked loop generates the DLL clock signal during a period where the clock signal is transmitted.

Abstract: A system and related methods used by an organization to collect, manage, analyze and act on data (i.e., manage “customer value creation” or “CVC”) from customers. The system may be used by organizations without depending on consultants to manage customer value creation. The system comprises an integrated dataset and schema, termed “Customer Value Creation Data,” which comprises three data types: Differential Value Proposition; Demand Influence; and Opportunities. Differential Value Proposition is the ability of the organization's products and services to positively impact their customer's bottom line relative to the organization's competitors. The ability to create a DVP can be correlated to the investments and strategies made by the organization on an ongoing basis.

Abstract: A sensing probe for measuring device performance electrically at a delivery inspection is disclosed. The probe comprises a plunger, a barrel and a coil spring. The plunger provides a groove in an outer surface thereof, while, the inner surface of the barrel provides a projection. The groove comprises a plurality of unit patterns including a front groove and a rear groove. The projection slides in the front groove as the plunger is pulled into the barrel, while, it slides in the rear groove as the plunger is pushed out from the barrel. Moreover, the plunger rotates in the barrel as the projection slides in the front and rear grooves, which makes an area of the plunger coming in contact with the barrel always fresh and lowers the contact resistance between them.
Abstract: A method and device for providing redundant control of a controllable current valve in a converter of a power transmission system. A first converter control unit sends a first valve control signal. A first active/standby indicator is associated with the first converter. A second converter control unit sends a second valve control signal. A second active/standby indicator is associated with the second converter control unit. The device also includes a valve control unit. An active/standby indicator indicates if a corresponding converter control unit is active or standby. Only one indicator indicates an active unit at a given point in time. The valve control unit receives the active/standby indicators and valve control signals, selects a valve control signal to be applied if the corresponding active/standby indicator indicates an active converter control unit and controls the current valve using the selected valve control signal.

The magnet is arranged to be movable together with the spring member. The device is arranged so that when exposed to an acceleration component in a possible path of mobility of the first magnet, the first magnet will, due to its association with the spring member, move in an oscillating manner in relation to the bobbin, so as to generate electrical energy. The device is arranged to at a limiting position of the mobile magnet's path of mobility a spring member with an equal or higher spring constant than the remainder portions of the magnet's mobile path acting on the magnet. An AMPG device assembly includes several AMPG devices. A method to optimize the electrical output of the device adapts the device to the frequencies appearing in the application where it shall be used.
