  • Patent number: 10936396
    Abstract: A network testing system includes one or more test devices each including a media-specific testing module and a processing device with a network interface, wherein the processing device is configured to test a network with the media-specific testing module; one or more servers configured to receive test results from the test of the network either directly from the one or more test devices or an intermediate data source communicatively coupled to the one or more test devices; and a validator module executed on the one or more servers configured to perform automated post-processing on the test results to compare the test results to a pre-defined Method of Procedure (MOP), to auto-correct one or more errors in the test results, and to provide a report based on the comparison.

  • Publication number: 20060210377
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method of producing a folded, closed booklet which is glued at the central fold thereof. The invention is characterised in that several identical sheets of paper having the same format are stacked on top of one another and are interconnected using a seam of glue which is applied transversely along the centre thereof, and all of said sheets are subsequently folded. The aforementioned glue seam forms a central hinge (1) around which the symmetric pages (2) are articulated. Each of the pages comprises a fold line (3) along the centre thereof, thereby defining an end panel (4a) and a central panel (4b). The inner faces of all of the stacked end panels (4a) are then folded simultaneously against the inner faces of all of the stacked central panels (4b), by means of folding in quires, such that the inner faces of the end panels (4a) are pressed against the inner faces of the central panels (4b) which are articulated around the above-mentioned central hinge (1).
