Patent number: 7845542Abstract: A process control procedure for a bonding process includes predetermining a deformation limit and a deforming time limit is for deforming a bonding precursor member. The bonding precursor member is deformed while monitoring instantaneous deformation values and instantaneous deforming time values for the bonding precursor member. A deforming shut-down time value is set at an instantaneous deforming time value corresponding to an occurrence of a first condition or a second condition. The first condition is an instantaneous deformation value for the bonding precursor member reaching the deformation limit and the second condition is an instantaneous deforming time value for the bonding precursor member reaching the deforming time limit. Deformation of the bonding precursor member is shut down at the deforming shut-down time value, thereby producing a deformed bond member from the bonding precursor member.Type: GrantFiled: September 22, 2005Date of Patent: December 7, 2010Assignee: Palomar Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Daniel D. Evans, Jr., James D. O'Bryan, Jr.

Publication number: 20080070528Abstract: A mid-call feature of a voice call server, such as an IP PBX or IP Centrex system, is accessed during a call. During the call with a mobile terminal via a mobile telephone network, a voice call signal associated with a mid-call feature from the mobile terminal is passed over a mobile telephone network to a first communication system. The voice call signal is converted to a data call signal at the first communication system, and the data call signal is transmitted to a second communication system over the data network. The method can also include providing the mid-call feature in response to receipt of the data signal at the second communication system.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 19, 2006Publication date: March 20, 2008Inventors: Tom Joyner, James D. O'Brien, Harry Edward Mussman

Patent number: 7346043Abstract: Methods are described which enable the operator of a network such as an Internet protocol (IP) network to allocate ingress and egress channel capacity for the use by different services or for use by different service providers. The methods can prevent a service provider or a service from overusing network capacity. The methods also enable the network operator to temporarily allocate unused capacity if demand for a service exceeds previously allocated capacity. Further a method is described whereby capacity on a Voice over Internet protocol (VoIP) network is sold to service providers with guarantees for the number of available channels, where the channel capacity guarantees could be global, or by any type of subdivision. In addition to having a committed channel capacity, the service provider could be allowed to exceed the committed capacity whenever excess capacity is available on the network.Type: GrantFiled: May 30, 2002Date of Patent: March 18, 2008Assignees: Verizon Corporate Services Group Inc., Level 3 Communications, LLC, BBN Technologies Corp.Inventors: Robert Olshansky, James D.

Publication number: 20020077928Abstract: A method for delivering home repair information to a home owner over a global computer network, such as the internet. The home owner is presented with a first internet web page that contains a first list of home repair topics. In response to selection by the home owner of a home repair topic from the first internet web page, a second internet web page that contains a second list of home repair topics is presented to the user. The second set of home repair topics on the second web page correspond to specific home repair topics associated with the home repair topic selected from the first web page. In response to the selection by the home owner of a home repair topic from the second internet web page, a full-length video segment is downloaded to a computer associated with the home owner. The full-length video segment preferably includes step-by-step instructions as to how to complete a project associated with the home repair topic selected from the second web page.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 20, 2001Publication date: June 20, 2002Inventor: James D.
