  • Publication number: 20070288789
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention relate to systems and methods for network element fault information processing. In an embodiment, a network element identifier and a network element fault information processing instruction are received. A query for network element fault information based at least in part on the network element identifier is sent. Network element fault information is received. The network element fault information is processed based at least in part on the received network element fault information. The processed network element fault information is output.

  • Publication number: 20050125699
    Abstract: An password management system is provided. The system typically includes a graphical user interface logic, which receives a current password from a user, prompts the user to determine whether to change the current password, and receive a new password if the user replies affirmatively. The system further includes password confirmation logic to confirm the current password with a switched access remote test system, and password administration logic to receive the new password and change the current password on the switched access remote test system.

  • Patent number: 4380907
    Abstract: A method of boiling a liquefied gas in a heat exchanger 10 includes the step of introducing a seed gas via a pipeline 18 to spray nozzles 34 situated under passages 22 of the heat exchanger 10 for reboiling the liquefied gas, e.g. oxygen. The passages 22 alternate with passages 24 for condensing nitrogen vapor. The seed gas bubbles are trapped by cavities formed in the heat exchange surfaces where boiling of the oxygen takes place. Each cavity is of such a size and shape that the trapped bubbles grow until they break away from the cavity leaving residues of vapor therein sufficient to allow further gas to accummulate by evaporation until again bubbles break away.
