  • Publication number: 20050270305
    Abstract: Techniques for generating storing and displaying graphics on computer systems are disclosed. The type of graphics in particular are images, where the image can be defined as a set of areas, whether these areas are lines, geometric shapes, letters or other types of areas. The effect of using these methods is that graphics, such as digital maps, can be handled faster, with more flexibility and with higher display quality, both for screen use and for printing.

  • Publication number: 20050182770
    Abstract: A system and method for assigning geographic location identifiers to web documents may include identifying a set of web documents. A geographic location identifier included within a first web document in the set of web documents may be identified. The identified geographic location identifier may be assigned to a second web document in the set of web documents based on a relevancy of the first web document to the second web document.

  • Publication number: 20050119824
    Abstract: A method and system for integrating a digital map system with a source document is disclosed including detecting a location description in the source document, and replacing the detected location description with a hyperlink linking to a depiction of the location description. Another embodiment may include a method and system for integrating a digital map system with a source document including detecting a location description in a source document, verifying that the location description describes an actual location, and integrating a hyperlink linking a depiction of the location description into the source document.

  • Patent number: 6661835
    Abstract: At a base station 2, a CDMA received signal coming in through an antenna 4 is fed to a radio frequency unit (RFU) or high frequency unit 6. The RFU 6 demodulates a baseband signal BB from a signal RF and delivers the signal BB to an analog-to-digital converter (A/D) 8. The resulting digital signal output from the A/D 8 is input to a hybrid interference canceller (HIC) 12 as a received signal Rx Data 10. The HIC 12 divides users into two groups and assigns one combination of a parallel interference canceller and a serial interference canceller to each group. The HIC 12 cancels interference contained in the received signal Rx Data 10 for thereby estimating symbols particular to a plurality of users.

  • Publication number: 20020129159
    Abstract: A method of serving content to multiple clients via a network is provided. Independent sessions with each of a plurality of clients are maintained, wherein the number of clients in the plurality of clients can vary over time, and wherein the start of each session and the end of each session can be independent of the start and end of other sessions. A stream of packet payloads is received, each packet payload of the stream of packet payloads including data generated from the content, wherein each packet payload in at least a subset of the stream of packet payloads includes a different set of data. Each packet payload in the stream of packet payloads is transmitted to each client of the plurality of clients in corresponding packets, wherein the packet payload transmitted to a client at any particular time is independent of the state of the corresponding session.

  • Patent number: 6240099
    Abstract: A receiver and method for receiving a code-division multiple-access (CDMA) signal combining symbol values spread by a plurality of spreading codes, which method comprises the steps of: (a) converting the CDMA signal to a baseband signal; (b) recognizing symbol boundaries in every multipath for every user in the baseband signal to produce a delay estimate; (c) estimating an attenuation and phase rotation impressed on the signal by each multipath to produce channel estimates; (d) generating new symbol estimates for every user at a sampling rate that is greater than a symbol rate of the signal; (e) generating an estimate of the received signal using said symbol estimates and channel estimates; (f) comparing the received signal with its estimate and feeding estimation error back to a means for estimating the transmitted symbols; (g) sampling the symbol estimates at the estimated symbol boundaries of each user to obtain final symbol estimates; and (h) repeating steps (b) through (g) with every new sample.

  • Patent number: 5531795
    Abstract: In the method for casein finishing of leather, transglutaminase is added to a casein solution, whereafter the thus formed solution is applied to leather, which is dried. Transglutaminase, which is not toxic, functions as a hardening agent in the method.
