Publication number: 20030028632Abstract: A system and method of logging multicast data messages in a communication network implement data logging methodologies mapped onto a multicast architecture exploiting the efficiencies inherent in multicasting techniques. A multicast logging system may include one or more Log Clients publishing log reports to one or more multicast addresses, one or more Log Servers subscribing to one or more multicast addresses and persisting selected log data, and a Log Viewer presenting a real-time view of log traffic directed to one or more multicast addresses. A method of logging multicast messages may incorporate such a system arrangement. Additionally, alarm messages comprising critical system data may be multicast using the foregoing system architecture and functionality.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 2, 2001Publication date: February 6, 2003Inventor: Thomas G.

Patent number: 6154274Abstract: A system for inspecting ophthalmic lenses and including transport, illumination, imaging and image processing subsystems. The transport system moves a multitude of ophthalmic lenses along a predetermined path to move each of those lenses, one at a time, into a lens inspection position, and the illumination subsystem generates a series of light pulses and directs a respective one light pulse through each ophthalmic lens. The imaging subsystem generates a set of signals representing selected portions of the light pulses transmitted through the ophthalmic lenses, and the image processing subsystem receives those signals from the imaging subsystem and processes those signals according to a predetermined program to identify at least one condition of each of the lenses.Type: GrantFiled: June 22, 1998Date of Patent: November 28, 2000Assignee: Johnson & Johnson Vision Products, Inc.Inventors: Thomas G. Davis, Joseph Wilder, David Dreyfuss

Patent number: 5828446Abstract: A method of continuously and automatically inspecting ophthalmic lenses. The lenses are continuously moved along a predetermined path to move each of the lenses, one at a time, into a lens inspection position. Each time one of the lenses moves into the lens inspection position, a light source is activated to generate a one light pulse, that light pulse is directed through the one lens and onto an array of pixels and a set of signals is generated representing the intensity of light incident on the pixel array. The set of signals is processed according to a predetermined program to determine at least one condition of the lens, and an output signal is generated representing that one condition.Type: GrantFiled: September 13, 1996Date of Patent: October 27, 1998Assignee: Johnson & Johnson Vision Products, Inc.Inventor: Thomas G.

Patent number: 5528357Abstract: Illumination and imaging subsystems for a system for inspecting ophthalmic lenses. The subsystems include a lens holder, a light source, a pixel array and a processor. In use, the light source generates light pulses that are transmitted through the lenses in the lens holder and onto the pixel array to produce thereon light patterns representing the ophthalmic lenses. The pixel array generates signals representing the intensity of light thereon, and the processor processes those signals according to a predetermined program to generate an output signal representing a condition of the lens.Type: GrantFiled: February 13, 1995Date of Patent: June 18, 1996Assignee: Johnson & Johnson Vision Products, Inc.Inventor: Thomas G.
