Abstract: Disclosed is a system for tracking and dynamically allocating wireless capacity within a wireless telecommunications network. The system has a plurality of processor levels: a layer of baseband-level capacity processors that are deployed within each baseband processor; a layer of client-level capacity processors that are deployed within each wireless base station; a layer of server-level capacity processors, each of which orchestrate allocation of wireless capacity over a unique domain of wireless base stations; and a master level capacity processor. Wireless capacity is allocated in terms of active connections to wireless devices, and the active connections are quantized and allocated as logical connections, or connection tokens. The system dynamically allocates wireless capacity so that resources are devoted to venues and environments where demand is greatest at any given time.

Abstract: A software solution to recording IP based communications that is highly scalable and reliable. Recordings can be configured to occur automatically or be triggered on-demand by a user that has been given the rights to do so. The user initiating the on-demand recording need not be a participant on the call. The solution is based on two server components: a call manager and a media server. The call manager is responsible for re-routing the IP media stream between two endpoints via the media server. The media server relays the IP media packets while capturing a copy that is stored as the recording. The recordings are stored on a network share and secured using standard network file security mechanisms. Access to playback recordings requires rights that are configured via the administrator. Playback of the recordings can be accomplished via the phone, client application or web service. Each playback interface offers a listing of recordings that the user has rights to access.

Abstract: A subscriber characterization system with filters in which the subscriber's selections are monitored, including monitoring of the time duration programming is watched, the volume at which the programming is listened to, and any available information regarding the type of programming, including category and sub-category of the programming. The raw subscriber selection data is then processed to eliminate data associated with irrelevant activities such as channel surfing, channel jumping, or extended periods of inactivity. The actual subscriber selection data is used to form program characteristics vectors. The programming characteristics vectors can be used in combination with the actual subscriber selection data to form a subscriber profile. Heuristic rules indicating the relationships between programming choices and demographics can be applied to generate additional probabilistic subscriber profiles regarding demographics and programming and product interests.

Abstract: A method of providing synchronization of the clocks of all of the media gateways of an Ethernet, or equivalent, IP network used in the transmission of audio data between media gateways using a clock provided by the PSTN. The selection of one of the media gateways connected to the PSTN, termed the master CoHub (Central Office Hub), is used as a clock master. This CoHub derives its clock from its TDM-interface's frame-synchronization with the PSTN to which it is connected. Utilizing this gateway-synchronization method, all MG's are synchronized to this PSTN clock-source.

Abstract: This invention provides an alkali-soluble resin coating composition, more particularly an aqueous floor polish composition, comprising water, at least one alkali-soluble polymeric film forming agent, preferably solubilized in water using ammonia or an ammonia derivative, a polyvalent metal crosslinking agent, and a plasticizing agent, wherein the improvement comprises at least a portion of the plasticizing agent being formed of a weak carboxylic acid, such as a tertiary alkyl monocarboxylic acid, or an unsaturated primary carboxylic acid, each acid having an average of from about 6 to 30 carbon atoms per molecule, or combinations thereof.

Abstract: A continuous bulk polymerization and esterification process includes continuously charging into a reaction zone at least one ethylenically unsaturated acid-functional monomer and at least one linear or branched chain alkanol having greater than 11 carbon atoms. The process includes maintaining a flow rate through the reaction zone sufficient to provide an average residence time of less than 60 minutes and maintaining a temperature in the reaction zone sufficient to produce a polymeric product incorporating at least some of the alkanol as an ester of the polymerized ethylenically unsaturated acid-functional monomer. The polymeric product is used in various processes to produce water-based compositions including emulsions and dispersions such as oil emulsions, wax dispersions, pigment dispersions, surfactants and coatings which contain the polymeric product.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a carton for storing, dispensing, and displaying adhesives, caulks, sealants, and other articles in tube form. The carton has two apertures, an upper aperture and a lower aperture. The upper aperture is used for loading the articles into the carton. The lower aperture opens into a trough into which the articles are dispensed and displayed. The bottom wall of the carton is inclined causing the articles stored therein to roll towards the lower aperture and be dispensed into a trough. The carton does not use an internal shelf or other channel which would require space that would otherwise be useful for the storage of articles to be dispensed. The carton uses a trough notch to allow easy removal of the articles from the trough. Preferably, the carton has a notch in the lower portion of the front wall to allow easy access to the articles to be dispensed in order to free jammed or otherwise displaced articles.
