Abstract: A computer system for assessing vehicle risk can include: a data storage device storing instructions; a data processor that is configured to execute the instructions to cause the computer system to: provide aggregated vehicle data for a plurality of vehicles including location data of the plurality of vehicles; determine at least one geographic area to be analyzed for the aggregated vehicle data; receive event information of the plurality of vehicles in the at least one geographic area, the even information including location information of a predetermined type of event; determine boundaries of a plurality of geographic communities within the at least one geographic area based on the received event information of the plurality of vehicles; and assigning a risk profile to each of the determined geographic communities based on the event information in each geographic community.

Abstract: A computer system is disclosed for dynamic vehicle insurance billing, comprising a data storage device storing instructions and a data processor that is configured to execute the instructions to cause the computer system to calculate risk values associated with one or more trips of a vehicle based at least in part on telematics data associated with the vehicle, and determine an insurance value based at least in part on the risk values.

Abstract: The unit is capable of synchronizing an incoming PCM frame with a PCM frame to be presented at the output, to ensure the sequencing of the channels belonging to a wide-band information flow. The flow can consist of a coded video-signal coming from a video-conference room. The synchronization is accomplished by suitable writing and reading operations effected in a random access memory (RAM) apt to store the information contents of two PCM frames. FIG. 2 is the most significant.

Abstract: A digitally operating telephone exchange, especially one serving an area of low subscriber density, comprises a multiplicity of control units of substantially identical structure programmed to carry out different functions in the establishment and termination of communication among associated subscriber stations. The several control units communicate with one another, and with the subscriber stations, through a common PCM coupling network with the aid of an access unit also having a similar structure. One control unit dialogues with a higher-ranking central office for communication with subscriber stations outside the area served by the exchange.

Abstract: A microprocessor associated with a PCM telecommunication network dialogues with remote data-handling components such as other microprocessors through message-interchange circuitry which includes a read/write memory having storage areas individually allocated to several PCM channels, one storage area serving to receive incoming messages destined for the local microprocessor while the remaining storage areas serve for the transmission of outgoing messages intended for respective remote components. A control unit, timed by signals from a synchronization extractor coupled to the network, communicates with the memory to detect state words written by the microprocessor into the memory to indicate the loaded or vacant condition of its storage areas.
