Abstract: A palletizable shelter that is easy to deliver, quick and easy to set up with no tools required, easily moveable (light), that can provide sleeping shelter for up to four adults, provide a very modest amount of living space during the day, provide a modest level of storage in a secure (lockable) structure, easily cleaned, can be disassembled with no tools, packaged and stored in a very small volume, and readily deliverable to the next site quickly and easily. A community in a container model is provided that includes multiple palletizable shelters in a collapsed configuration, a common cooking and meeting place, laundry facilities, and a shared bathroom facility that would include toilets, sinks and showers.

Abstract: An inventory control system for monitoring the removal and replacement of tools includes a container (2) having a plurality of tool storage locations in the form of recesses (10). Each recess (10) is individually-shaped to receive a specific tool, the shape of the recess being matched to the shape of the tool. A plurality of sensors (12) are provided for sensing the presence of tools in the recesses (10), each sensor being located adjacent a recesses. A data processor (16) receives signals from the sensing means and monitors the removal and replacement of tools, and an output device (14) indicates the presence and/or absence of tools in the container.

Abstract: A method of processing a print order in which the entire order is delivered simultaneously. An exposed sheet carrying all the latent images of the order is developed in a single processing space.

Abstract: The invention relates to the transfer of a message signal between a transmitter device and a receiver device wherein the message transfer is based on a predefined signal frame structure using a concrete syntax notation. To improve the reliability of transferring a message signal, in particular, control and/or signaling messages, at least one additional check information element is embedded within at least one unused portion of the frame structure.

Abstract: A process for the treatment of a photographic material particularly a high speed photographic material, comprising an emulsion containing silver halide grains the treatment being to reduce the sensitivity of the material to ionizing radiation comprises prior to exposure, subjecting the material to a treatment that reduces the surface image dispersity so that fewer centers develop on each grain. The process may involve subjecting the photographic emulsion to physical pressure to deform the grains to introduce internal trapping centers for latent image formation so that a proportion of the latent image can be formed within the grains rather than on the grain surface.

Abstract: A GSM transceiver for use in a GSM network is disclosed. The transceiver includes a multilayer protocol stack for executing a plurality of asynchronous tasks which are encoded with a universal and generic instruction set used for communicating between and synchronizing the tasks; a multitasking operating system having a set of operating system instructions and providing prioritized execution of the tasks by execution of the operating system instructions; an operating system interface causing instructions of the universal instruction set to be carried out by the multitasking operating system so that each universal instruction of the universal instruction set is executed as a sequence of at least one instruction of the operating system instruction set; and at least one processor controlled by the operating system to execute the asynchronous tasks.

Abstract: A GSM transceiver for use in a GSM network and a method of use of the GSM transceiver is disclosed. The GSM transceiver includes a multilayer protocol stack for executing a plurality of asynchronous tasks, the multilayer protocol stack including a radio resources management entity for controlling a physical layer and a data link layer of the multilayer protocol stack for establishing and maintaining a wireless link between the transceiver and the GSM network and a mobility management entity for establishing and authenticating services provided by the GSM network to the transceiver; and at least one processor for executing the plurality of asynchronous tasks of the multilayer protocol stack; and wherein only the radio resources management entity synthesizes channel establishment messages transmitted by the GSM transceiver to the GSM network and only the mobility management entity makes decisions to establish channels between the transceiver and the GSM network.

Abstract: A method of tracing execution of a computer program of a data processing system with print messages is disclosed.

Abstract: Improved sensitivity and reduced minimum density are provided by an emulsion in which high bromide tabular grains exhibit an average thickness of less than 0.07 .mu.m and have latent image forming reduction chemical sensitization sites and adsorbed spectral sensitizing dye on their surfaces. The tabular grains contain a dopant capable of forming shallow electron trapping sites, and the spectral sensitizing dye exhibits an oxidation potential more positive than 1.2 volts. A photographic element is disclosed which locates the emulsion in a layer overlying a minus blue recording emulsion layer. Exceptionally sharp images are formed in the minus blue recording emulsion layer when in the overlying emulsion layer greater than 97 percent of the total projected area of the silver halide grains having an equivalent circular diameter of at least 0.2 .mu.m is accounted for by tabular grains having an average equivalent circular diameter of at least 0.7 .mu.m.

Abstract: Photographic elements intended to generate dye images containing at least one colloidal silver layer and at least one hydroquinone antistain agent have been observed to suffer from random fog spotting, which can be reduced by incorporating a catalyst for the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide. The imagewise exposed elements when photographically processed and bleached of silver produce viewable dye images.

Abstract: An improved anitlocking vehicle braking system and method for stopping, for example, automobiles utilizing uniquely designed fluid communication means to regulate the fluid pressure applied to individual wheel conventional braking devices. The system includes a comparator means at each braking device which cooperates with other components of the system to detect the difference between the force generated from the frictional loading between the brake shoe and the drum and the force between the tire and the road. This difference is translated to movement of a valve which restricts the supply of brake fluid to the individual wheel to the extent necessary to prevent sufficient force being applied to force the wheels to a locked condition or to inefficient braking operation.
