Publication number: 20070003039Abstract: A method and an apparatus are disclosed that improve how an incoming call is handled across multiple data-processing systems, without some of the disadvantages of the prior art. Specifically, in a telecommunications call when a called telephone number is not associated with a particular in-service terminal, an enhanced terminating system of the call refrains from transmitting ringback to the calling terminal until an appropriate event occurs, such as the receiving of an asynchronous response from the auxiliary data-processing system to which the call has been directed. Depending on the response received, the terminating system might refocus the call or provide other treatment to the call. In some embodiments of the present invention, the terminating system also transmits a feedback signal to the calling terminal to provide status to the calling party on the progress of the call attempt, wherein the feedback signal is different than the ringback signal.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 28, 2005Publication date: January 4, 2007Applicant: Avaya Technology Corp.Inventors: Sandra Abramson, Stephen Milton, C.

Patent number: 6053263Abstract: An earth-boring bit has a bit body which connects to a drill string. Three cutters are rotatably secured to a bearing shaft of the bit and a large number of chisel-like cutting elements are secured to each cutter. Each cutting element has a cylindrical base and a cutting end. An elongate crest is located at the tip of the cutting end. A conical chamfer connects the crest and the cutting end. The junction created by the chamfer is non-tangential and reduces the amount of unsupported material at the crest. The conical contour of the chamfer is defined by by a straight line moving in an oval path about the longitudinal axis. The contour of the cutting end avoids abrupt changes and associated stress concentrations. This is achieved by avoiding surfaces of rotation in non-axisymmetric configurations.Type: GrantFiled: June 19, 1998Date of Patent: April 25, 2000Assignee: Baker Hughes IncorporatedInventor: Matthew John Meiners
