Patent number: 9233524Abstract: An integrated process for making an inflatable laminated article comprises extruding a first film and a second film, followed by cooling the first film and the second film so that the films will not fuse to one another upon contact with each other. The films are then brought into contact with one another, and selected portions of one or both films are heated so that the films are heat sealed to one another in a selected area having a desired pattern. The unsealed area between the film provides inflatable chambers between the first film and the second film. An alternative process utilizes a film tubing in lay-flat configuration to produce a laminated inflatable article.Type: GrantFiled: November 3, 2004Date of Patent: January 12, 2016Assignee: Sealed Air Corporation (US)Inventors: Charles Kannankeril, Mike Metta, Bob O'Dowd

Patent number: 7024690Abstract: A process for mutual authentication of users and networks over an unsecured wireless communication channel. In one embodiment, sensitive information (e.g., passwords) is not communicated over the unsecured channel. Rather, hashed representations of user identifiers, passwords, etc., and randomly generated numbers are communicated between the client and the network during the log-in process. The representations may be encrypted with a one-way hash function such that it is not computationally feasible for an eavesdropper to decrypt. In one embodiment, the representation may be generated based on the user identifier, password and/or MAC address of a wireless LAN card.Type: GrantFiled: April 28, 2000Date of Patent: April 4, 2006Assignee: 3Com CorporationInventors: Albert Young, Bob O'Hara, Danny M.

Patent number: 6990116Abstract: A method and system for increasing the overall network throughput over a wireless local area network (WLAN). Specifically, in one embodiment of the present invention, the dynamic switching between the Distributed Coordination Function (DCF) and Point Coordination Function IEEE 802.11 access modes is determined according to the load conditions over the WLAN in a method and system. Stations and access points within a WLAN monitor conditions within the network to determine which access mechanism is most optimum for the current load conditions. Some factors to consider in determining the load conditions include but are not limited to the number of transmissions, number of receptions, and number of collisions.Type: GrantFiled: January 12, 2001Date of Patent: January 24, 2006Assignee: 3Com CorporationInventors: Albert Young, BoFu Chen, Bob O'Hara, Seema Nayek, Tim Schardt
