  • Publication number: 20230230122
    Abstract: In one implementation a method of transmitting a multimedia file over a data network is provided that involves receiving from a device in a data network a first message in a first protocol that request first data associated with the multimedia file, the first data being useable by the device to establish a streaming session that involves a transmission of the multimedia file. The first message includes identifying data of a referring site. The method also involves transmitting to the device the first data and optionally the identifying data of the referring site and then receiving from the device a second message in a second protocol for the purpose of creating a streaming session associated with the multimedia file. A streaming session is then created for transmitting the multimedia file to the device.

  • Patent number: 10730970
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for determining a set of one or more operating conditions of an olefin polymerization reactor for the synthesis of a polyolefin in slurry condition, comprising the steps of: a1) introducing a polyolefin into a volume of at least one diluent, said diluent being agitated by a powered agitator at a first temperature T1; b1) monitoring the power consumed by the agitator as a function of the concentration, for at least three concentrations C1, C2, and Cn, which are different from each other; c1) repeating steps a1) and b1) at two or more subsequent temperatures T2 and Tn, which are different from each other and from T1; d1) determining from the power consumed by the agitator as a function of concentration, said set of one or more stable operating conditions for the synthesis of the polyolefin in the olefin polymerization reactor.

  • Patent number: 9126179
    Abstract: The invention relates to a process for preparing polyolefin in a loop reactor. The polymer is prepared by polymerizing olefin monomers in the presence of a catalyst to produce a polyolefin slurry while pumping said slurry through said loop reactor by means of a pump. The present process is characterized in that the catalyst is fed in the loop reactor at a distance to the pump. The invention allows production of the polymer with advantageous properties while leading to fewer blockages of the reactor.

  • Patent number: 9031068
    Abstract: A method for managing multicast traffic through a switch operating in the layer 2 of the OSI model, and routers and switches involved in the method. In one implementation a router sends to a switch a message containing identification of specific equipment which has requested specific multicast traffic, and also containing a specification of the specific traffic, and when the switch receives data carrying multicast traffic, based on the destination and origin addresses of the data, and based on the identification of the specific equipment and of the specification of the specific multicast traffic that it has received in the message, the switch deduces if the data carry the specific traffic that has been requested by the specific equipment, and decides through which of its ports it transmits the data.

  • Publication number: 20150074154
    Abstract: There are provided a method of secure storing of content objects, and system and apparatus thereof. The method comprises: receiving by a first computing device a first content object comprising a first content characterized by a first set of bytes; generating by the first computing device a second content object characterized by a second set of bytes, said generating comprising transforming the first set of bytes into the second set of bytes; and sending the second content object to a second computing device. The second set of bytes is configured to enable a graphical representation of the second content object on the second computing device such that it resembles a graphical representation of the first content object enabled by the first set of bytes on the first computing device. The second set of bytes is further configured to enable said graphical representation of the second content object with no need in decryption of the second content object before the representation.
