Publication number: 20030014644Abstract: The conformance of a network to a set of security policy statements is determined by attempting to violate the policies by routing packets through models of network elements. Policy statements specify whether a set of clients is granted or denied access to a network service offered by a set of servers. Network element models are in accordance to the element's configurable parameters and supported services, which together indicate how the element will treat packets when the element's current configuration is applied to the model. Conformance to a policy statement is determined by building a packet in accordance with the network service and a representative network-element client and server, and by attempting to move the packet from the client to the server by applying the packet to the network element models. Policy conformance is based on whether the packet reaches the service on the server. Network reconfigurations are determined for non-conformant policies.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 2, 2002Publication date: January 16, 2003Inventors: James E. Burns, Aileen Cheng, Provin Gurung, Siva Rajagopalan, Prasad Rao, Surendran Varadarajan

Patent number: 6245160Abstract: A method for clearing natural gas service lines includes providing an independently operable vacuum clearing unit having a frame supporting a centrifugal blower, an internal combustion engine for operating the blower and a bag separator connected to an air intake on the blower. The blower is exhausted above the truck through an absolute (HEPA) filter. A drum top separator selectively mounted on the open upper end of one of a plurality of waste barrels releasably secured in fixed position on the truck is connected between the vacuum clearing unit and an inlet port accessible externally of the truck. The inlet port is connected by an elongated flexible service hose and a service hose adapter to a gas service line to be cleared. The vacuum clearing unit is then operated, thereby drawing any debris present in the gas line through the unit and into one of the plurality of waste barrels.Type: GrantFiled: May 12, 2000Date of Patent: June 12, 2001Assignees: The Spencer Turbine Company, Connecticut Natural Gas CorporationInventors: James E.

Patent number: 5924163Abstract: A demand responsive central vacuum system having a vacuum producer driven by a variable speed motor and connected to a piping system having inlet ports located in areas to be cleaned. Wet and dry separators are connected in tandem in the piping system between the inlet ports and the vacuum producer. A flow switch detects when a flow condition is present in the piping system indicating that the vacuum system is in use and provides a signal to a controller which increases the operational speed of the drive motor and opens a bleed valve connected to the piping system to bleed air into the piping system.Type: GrantFiled: June 13, 1997Date of Patent: July 20, 1999Assignee: The Spencer Turbine CompanyInventor: James E.

Patent number: 5485224Abstract: Motion compensated video signal processing apparatus, in which motion vectors are generated to represent image motion between a pair of input images of an input video signal, comprises means for comparing search blocks within one of the pair of input images with respective search areas, comprising a plurality of blocks, in the other of the pair of input images, to generate a first plurality of original correlation surfaces, each comprising an array of correlation values representing correlation between the respective search block and search area; means for generating a second plurality of interpolated correlation surfaces by interpolation from the original correlation surfaces; and means for generating a respective motion vector from each interpolated correlation surface, in dependence on a point of maximum correlation in that interpolated correlation surface.Type: GrantFiled: February 4, 1994Date of Patent: January 16, 1996Assignee: Sony United Kingdom LimitedInventors: James E. Burns, Morgan W. A. David, Martin R. Dorricott

Patent number: 5469226Abstract: A method of processing a digital video signal to derive motion vectors representing motion between successive fields or frames of the video signal comprises compares the contents of blocks of pixels in a first field or frame of the video signal with the contents of a plurality of blocks of pixels in a following field or frame, and produces for each block in the first field or frame a correlation surface representing the difference between the contents so compared in the two fields or frames. A grown correlation surface is produced for each block in the first field or frame by weighting the correlation surfaces for that block and a plurality of other blocks in an area around that block so as to accentuate features of the correlation surface for that block relative to those for the other blocks, and summing the weighted correlation surfaces.Type: GrantFiled: March 3, 1993Date of Patent: November 21, 1995Assignee: Sony United Kingdom LimitedInventors: Morgan W. A. David, James E. Burns

Patent number: 5370229Abstract: A high impact resistant package system 10 for a container of fragile products, such as X-ray cassettes, has a plurality of shock absorbing polyethylene plastic foam corner protector members 12 mounted on corner edges 14,16,20,22 of the container. Alternatively, a flexible material layer 50 overwraps the product container 18 and corner protector members 12, thereby forming a unitized package system. Portions of the corner protector members 12 extend beyond the corner edges 14,16,20,22 and sides of the container so as to fully absorb exposure to shock during handling and shipment. In an alternative embodiment, the flexible layer 50 is provided with a peelable strip 40. An end portion 42 of the strip 40 is allowed to extend through an aperture 44 formed in the flexible layer 50. In this embodiment, access to the container is gained by grasping the end portion 42 of strip 40 and pulling it away from the container 18.Type: GrantFiled: August 2, 1993Date of Patent: December 6, 1994Assignee: Eastman Kodak CompanyInventors: Ronald W. Kroeckel, Allen B. Cullen, James E. Burns

Patent number: 4533131Abstract: A portable, manually or motor operated machine for separating continuous multiple ply business forms into individual stacks, each having a single ply while simultaneously removing the carbon paper for disposal. The device includes a housing, a pair of separating rollers, a carbon paper winding reel that is manually or motor driven, and carbon sheet guide bars positioned strategically relative to the rollers which allow for efficient, rapid separation of the continuous business form. An attachable accessory allows separation of carbonless multiple ply business forms into two stacks of single plies. The drive shaft of the carbonless separator accessory replaces the carbon paper winding reel, and includes one or two pairs of belt driven wheels that rest on the separating rollers. The machine may be independently mounted on a table top, or be used in conjunction with a mateable floor stand.Type: GrantFiled: November 9, 1981Date of Patent: August 6, 1985Inventor: James E. Burns
