  • Flame-retardant polyolefin compounds and their use in surface coverings
    Patent number: 7393890
    Abstract: A flame-retardant compound is disclosed, comprising a polyolefin alloy and a combination of frame-retardant agents. The polyolefin alloy comprises at least one polyolefin and a metallocene-catalyzed olefin copolymer. The flame-retardant agents comprise a nanoclay and at least one inorganic flame-retardant. An essentially halogen-free flame-retardant compound is preferred. Surface coverings for mammalian-occupied spaces benefit from the properties of the flame-retardant compound.
    Type: Grant

  • Interactive topology graphs for visualization and characterization of SONET consumption patterns
    Publication number: 20060080611
    Abstract: A computer-based monitoring system provides interactive topology information about a synchronized optical network (SONET). The monitoring system utilizes a trunks integrated record keeping system (TIRKS) connected to the SONET for collecting status data in a raw format. A computer system retrieves the raw format status data from TIRKS and provides the data in a simple graphical user interface to a user. The interface includes several menus from which the user may specify specific components of the SONET, and a graphical output for providing a graphical representation of the SONET. The graphical output illustrates each node and link and interactively provides more detailed information about any user selected link or node.
