Abstract: The invention relates to an organic peroxide emulsion containing at least one organic peroxide, at least one emulsifier comprising at least one nonionic surfactant including at least one fatty chain and/or a protective colloid agent, a combination of two or more antigels containing no more than 9.5 wt% of a first antifreeze relative to the total weight of the ethanol emulsion, at least a second antifreeze and water. The invention also relates to a method for preparing such an emulsion, the use of such an emulsion for the polymerization or copolymerization of one or more ethylenically unsaturated monomers, and a halogenated vinyl polymer obtained by the use of such an emulsion.

Abstract: A method and a system are provided for data management in a transport device, in particular in a train. In a first comparison, a first count value stored in a first control device is compared with a count value stored in a second control device. In a second comparison, a count value selected from the first and second count values on the basis of a result of the first comparison is compared with a control count value stored in a safety device. On the basis of a result of the second comparison, control data stored in the safety device and associated with the control count value are acquired by the first or second control device.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an aqueous emulsion of peroxyester, comprising at least one peroxyester, at least one antifreeze and a combination of at least two emulsifiers chosen from the group consisting of a non-ethoxylated sorbitan ester, an ethoxylated sorbitan ester and an ethoxylated fatty alcohol.

Abstract: An aqueous emulsion of dialkyl peroxide has at least one dialkyl peroxide in liquid form at room temperature, representing between 10% and 75% by weight of the emulsion, at least one emulsifier representing from 0.01% to 10% by weight of the emulsion, optionally, at least one antifreeze, optionally at least one functional additive, water, the amount of which is determined so as to form the rest of said emulsion (100%), characterized in that the emulsifier is a polyethoxylated nonionic surfactant. Also, a process for preparing this aqueous emulsion.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a control system of a network element (18) capable of handling transmission signals of an optical transport network (16) (OTN) and transmission signals of a synchronous digital transport network (16) (SDH), the network element (18) comprising a first subsystem (28) for handling trans-mission signals of the optical transport network (16), a second subsystem (30) for handling transmission signals of the synchronous digital transport network (16) and a number of dedicated interconnections (40) between the two subsystems (28, 30), wherein the control system comprises a management information base comprising managed objects (54) related to the first subsystem (28), managed objects (52) related to the second subsystem (30) and a further managed object (56) (interconnection object) related to the number of interconnections (40). The invention further relates to a network element comprising the control system and a method for managing the network element.

Abstract: A heterogeneous network consists of an OTN-type sub-network and an SDH type sub-network. The sub-networks are interconnected by an interconnection node network element (NE) which has a first interface (O1-On) connected to OTN-type sub-network (OTN) and a second interface (S1-Sn) connected the SDH-type sub-network (SDH). Management information messages from the data communication channels of received SDH signals and management information messages from the general communication channels of received OTN signals are extracted in the corresponding interfaces. All messages are then fed via a LAN to a common routing engine (R), which routes the management information messages between the OTN and SDH sub-networks.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of negotiating an active or a passive role assignment to a first and a second control means of a network element. The control means are redundant and operate dependent on their respective active or passive role. The invention furthermore relates to a control means therefor, a program module for a control means therefor and a network element therefor. The method comprises the steps of: determining an operability state parameter for each of said control means dependent on their respective ability to perform their respective functionality; mutually transmitting said operability state parameters between said control means; and determining an active role or a passive role by said control means dependent on said respective operability state parameters.
