Abstract: There is provided a method and system for authenticating a production of products. The method and system comprise determining if configuration data for the production run is authorized and, if the production run is authorized, generating a security token and associating the token with configuration data. The configuration data is digitally signed by generating a digital signature and associating the digital signature with the configuration data. The digital signature associated with the digitally signed configuration data is verified. Products are then produced in a production run according to the digitally signed configuration data, and the set of secure product identifiers is printed on the products according to the digitally signed configuration data.

Abstract: In an electronic circuit design system, a physical layout of at least part of an electronic circuit design is visually rendered. Magnitude of current loading are determined at one or more of the circuit nodes, or one or more clusters of nodes grouped according to predetermined clustering criteria, for a selected net or nets. The range of magnitudes is mapped to at least one gradation range for visual indicia of preselected type, such as a predetermined color spectrum; preferably, alternative gradation ranges respectively for current sources and current sinks are provided. The visual indicia of the current loading magnitudes are then adaptively displayed to overlay the corresponding circuit nodes or clusters in the rendered physical layout, providing a reference for a designer to proportionately size segments of the selected net or nets, as well as spacing required for the segments.

Abstract: A portable food container includes a first container for receiving a food item and having a first end with an opening, a second end, and a sidewall connecting the first and second ends. A closure of the first container is releasably securable to the opening. A second container has an open configuration and a closed configuration, and defines a first cell for receiving a food item, a second cell for receiving the first container, and a port for receiving a portion of the first container. When the second container is in the closed configuration and the first container is located in the second cell, the first container opening is substantially aligned with the port to receive the closure. The closure secures the second container in the closed configuration when the first container is located in the second cell and the closure is secured to the opening.

Abstract: The present invention concerns the field of communication networks having a structure similar to an aeronautical telecommunications network (ATN). In particular, the invention relates in particular to how to simply simulate a large number of subscribers exchanging information via an ATN with equipment under test so as to test the ability of the equipment to exchange, via an ATN, information with a large number of subscribers. The inventive architecture comprises in particular a modified ATN stack enabling several separate communication channels to be opened on the ATN for a common application, said application being simultaneously implemented by several simulated entities. The modification of the ATN stack concerns in particular the assignment, by the corresponding ASE layers, of AEq identifiers to the applications implemented by the simulated entities. This modification also concerns the association of a network identifier TSEL with an AEq identifier from a modified ASE layer.

Abstract: The invention concerns a method for making a card with tips for testing semiconductor chips with microsphere bond pads. A first adhesive coat is vacuum deposited on a flexible polyimide film, followed by a second metal coat. A combination of UV photolithography and electroforming of a metal material enables to obtain the implantation of the tips. The pattern of the strip conductors is obtained by a second UV lithography operation whereby the second metal layer and the first adhesive coat are etched. An insulating protective resist is deposited on the active conductive zone. The flexible film is mounted on a truncated maintaining component whereof the vertical translational and planar rotational movements are made possible by a guide supported on a spring suspension. The defective alignment between the plane of the tips and the plane of the tips and the printed circuit plane is corrected by a correcting system with three support points adjustable with screws.
