  • Patent number: 9243356
    Abstract: A turf reinforcement fabric and a method for producing such a fabric by weaving a plurality of filaments in a predetermined pattern to form a three-dimensional structure formed to have a loft thickness without requiring the application of heat to heat shrink the fibers, and/or formed with one or more fibers of increased thickness at peaks and valleys of the woven structure, and/or incorporating flame retardant and/or UV stabilizing fiber additives.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 7869350
    Abstract: A method is disclosed for determining a repair strategy for a data communication network. The data communication network has as components nodes and links. The method comprises a step of implementing a link repair strategy for an adjacent link to an adjacent node. The method further monitors for a probe packet to the adjacent node and, if such a packet is received, implements a node repair strategy.

  • Patent number: 7707307
    Abstract: A method is disclosed for constructing a backup route from a source node around an adjacent component. The source node derives a first set of nodes reachable from it without traversing the adjacent component and a second set of nodes from which a neighbor node of adjacent components is reachable without traversing the adjacent component. The source node then constructs a backup route via an intermediate node in the intersection of the first and second sets.

  • Patent number: 7042838
    Abstract: A method of forwarding data in a data communications network comprising a plurality of nodes comprises the step of forwarding data according to a forwarding strategy implemented at a forwarding node. Where the implemented strategy comprises a repair strategy to compensate for a change in the network, the method further comprises the step of encapsulating the data in a primary repair encapsulating packet and marking the primary repairing encapsulating packet as repaired.

  • Patent number: 6068041
    Abstract: A portable adjustable partition is provided. The partition includes a first base barrier member and a second base barrier member wherein the first base barrier member is pivotably connected to the second base barrier member. First and second slidable barrier members are connected to the first base barrier member and the second base barrier member, respectively. A first glide member is connected to the first telescoping barrier member and a second glide member is connected to the second telescoping barrier member. A pivot limiter is attached to one of the first base barrier member and the second base barrier member.
