Abstract: Disclosed examples include flyback converters, control circuits and methods to facilitate secondary side regulation of the output voltage. A primary side control circuit operates a primary side switch to independently initiate power transfer cycles to deliver power to a transformer secondary winding in a first mode. A secondary side control circuit operates a synchronous rectifier or secondary side switch to generate a predetermined cycle start request signal via a transformer auxiliary winding to assume secondary side regulation and to cause the primary side controller to initiate new power transfer cycles.

Abstract: The invention includes a method and apparatus for regenerative signaling. Specifically, the method includes receiving at least one base protocol message formatted in accordance with at least one base protocol, obtaining service information associated with at least one network service, and generating, in response to the at least one base protocol message, at least one companion protocol message formatted in accordance with at least one companion protocol. The at least one base protocol message is associated with at least one service endpoint. The service information associated with at least one network service is obtained using the at least one base protocol message. The at least one companion protocol message is generated using at least a portion of the service information. The at least one companion protocol message is operable for controlling the at least one network service in a manner substantially transparent to the at least one service endpoint.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method of communicating with at least a calling party and at least a called party. The method includes receiving information indicative of an incoming call from the calling party, accessing context information associated with the called party in response to receiving the information indicative of the incoming call, and providing a ring-back tone based on the context information associated with the called party.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method of communicating with at least a calling party and at least a called party. The method includes receiving information indicative of an incoming call from the calling party, accessing context information associated with the called party, and accessing a pass code provided by the calling party. The method also includes disposing of the incoming call based on the pass code and the context information.

Abstract: The present invention provides methods for establishing a service agreement between an application and a telecommunication network is provided. One embodiment of the method includes receiving a schema having a plurality of granules, selecting at least one granule from the schema, forming the service agreement based upon the at least one selected granule, and providing the service agreement.

Abstract: A scalable policy-based Web Services security architecture that incorporates a combination of authentication with service discovery, evaluation of access policies, and capturing the result of this process in a signed, security token, thus, allowing efficient processing for each service request in a secure manner. A method for securing a Web Service comprises discovering the Web Service in response to a service request and determining an access policy for the Web Service separately from the actual service based on the service request.
