Patent number: 7234060Abstract: A digital signature is generated in association with target data. The computer generating the digital data encrypts the digital signature using a public key encryption system. The private key is stored in dynamic memory in a secure manner. The public key associated with the private key is stored in an accessible database. The public key is accessed from the database and used by recipient computers to authenticate the target data by decrypting the encrypted digital signature. When the computer generating the digital signature is restarted, the private key stored in dynamic memory is lost. The computer obtains a new private and public key pair from the public key encryption system. The previously used public key is maintained in the database until a predefined time has elapsed, after which it is removed from the database.Type: GrantFiled: July 11, 2000Date of Patent: June 19, 2007Inventors: Eugene Amdur, Irving Reid, C.

Patent number: 5243847Abstract: For the indirect identification of the mass flow of a specimen fluid stre the specimen fluid stream is mixed with a dilution fluid stream to form an total fluid stream that is to be investigated in view of specific constituents of the specimen fluid stream. The mass flow of a specimen fluid stream is identified from the difference between the measured mass flows of the dilution fluid stream and the total fluid stream. In order to reduce the possibilities of error in the setting of a defined dilution ration, the mass flows of the dilution fluid stream and the total fluid stream are calibrated relative to one another, to which end one of the calibration measurements is not undertaken at the respective fluid stream but is separately undertaken at the specimen fluid stream.Type: GrantFiled: July 10, 1991Date of Patent: September 14, 1993Assignee: AVL Gesellschaft fur Verbrennungskraft-maschinen und Messtechnik mbH.Inventors: Kurt Engeljehringer, Harald Koch, Wolfgang Schindler

Patent number: 5156307Abstract: The dispenser has a circular mixing chamber (8) which is arranged immediately in front of a mixing nozzle (7). A first channel (15) leads to the mixing chamber (8) which is connected with a rising pipe which is immersed in the filled material of a squeezable container. Simultaneously, a second channel (9) leads into the mixing chamber which is connected to the air space above the filled material. A sieve arranged in the outlet channel (19) at a distance after the mixing nozzle which completely covers the outlet channel under the effect of the pressure of the filled material flowing out when the container (1) is squeezed. With release of the container, the sieve partially releases the outlet channel under the suction effect of the air return flow. With that, the container is rapidly ready for a renewed press sequence.Type: GrantFiled: March 22, 1991Date of Patent: October 20, 1992Inventors: George E. Callahan, Harald Koch
