Abstract: In order to control at least partially automated vehicles in a road danger zone, in particular road junctions in road traffic, in such a way that the vehicles can pass through the road danger zone in flowing traffic without stop/start interruptions, such as those caused e.g. by signalling equipment, traffic lights, the following proposes the following steps: a) each vehicle of the vehicles, on approaching the road danger zone, surrender the power to control the dynamic driving tasks of the vehicle in order to pass through said zone, b) when the vehicles have surrendered vehicle control power, a central control entity generates a digital road danger zone twin, and, as a result of the vehicles having surrendered vehicle control power, vehicle movements of the vehicle are automatically and dynamically controlled in a vehicle-coordinated and collision-free manner in order to pass through the road danger zone.

Abstract: A method for operating at least two data processing units with high availability, in particular in a vehicle, is provided. A first data processing unit and a second data processing unit can each provide the same function to an extent of at least 60 percent or at least 90 percent. The second data processing unit removes automatically at least one entry for a process to be executed from a memory unit or automatically places itself into a standby mode.

Abstract: According to a current user location, at least one favorable user location in the vicinity of a respective current user location for a mobile terminal is, as a suggestion for changing location, determined from communications requests for at least one respective application and from available network services in the vicinity of the current user location by virtue of the fact that, in favorable locations, network services can be more efficiently and/or economically used.

Abstract: A control device (1) controls a system using at least one control element (3) that can be manually actuated, a function (F) of the system being controllable depending on a position of the control element (3) in a multi-dimensional reference space (2).

Abstract: A baggage issuing facility for issuing baggage items to passengers is provided in this case. The baggage issuing facility is e.g. a baggage conveyor belt at an airport. There, provision is made for a locating facility which locates baggage items with reference to a tag that is attached thereto, and passengers with reference to at least one of the identification features assigned to the passenger concerned. The locating facility controls the baggage issuing facility in order to deliver the located baggage item to the associated located passenger. The baggage issuing system offers greater convenience for passengers, since it avoids long waiting times and crowds of people at a baggage conveyor belt. Moreover, it is also possible to make the baggage issue more flexible. In particular, the baggage issuing system is suitable for baggage issue at destination airports and for baggage storage at railway stations.

Abstract: An existing logical data link between a first subscriber terminal connected to a subscriber line of a telecommunications network and a switching center of the telecommunications network is transferred from a first subscriber terminal to a second subscriber terminal which is connected to the subscriber line of the first subscriber terminal or to another subscriber line of the second telecommunications network. The second subscriber terminal receives a message sent from the first subscriber terminal concerning the communication state of the existing logical data link and takes over this data link in the reported communication state, adapting its own state.

Abstract: According to the inventive method, a call number is input in a call number memory of a telecommunication terminal (MS) by transmitting (S6) a call number information to the terminal (MS) via a telecommunication network (PLMN), said terminal (MS) recording a call number derived from the received call number information in a memory. The call number information can be transmitted in an especially automatic manner when the telecommunication network (PLMN detects the check-in (S1) of a terminal (MS); else, it can be transmitted upon request of the terminal (MS).

Abstract: Optimum use is made of a currently available data connection capacity for data signal connections between data terminals, which are connected to a circuit-switched switching center, and/or between these data terminals and a data network, in particular the Internet data network, which is connected to the switching center. For the purpose of making optimum use of the currently available transmission capacity for traffic loads on the switching center, additional transmission capacity to that which is available for normal connections is provided below a first threshold V1. If the traffic load exceeds the first threshold V1, the provision of additional transmission capacity for new data signal connections stops. If the traffic load undershoots a second threshold V2, which may be the same as the first threshold V1, additional transmission capacity for new data signal connections is provided again.
