Patent number: 9119180Abstract: A system for automating connection management in a manner that may be transparent to any actively communicating applications operating in a Network on Terminal Architecture (NoTA). An application level entity, such as an application node, may access another node by making a request to a high level communication structure via a high level interface. The high level structure may then interact with a lower level structure in order to facilitate a connection to a programmatic element on another device, for example, via a wireless communication transport.Type: GrantFiled: February 27, 2008Date of Patent: August 25, 2015Assignee: Nokia CorporationInventors: Arto Palin, Juha-Matti Tuupola, Timo Eriksson

Publication number: 20110002344Abstract: A system for automating connection management in a manner that may be transparent to any actively communicating applications operating in a Network on Terminal Architecture (NoTA). An application level entity may access another node by making a request to a high level communication structure via an interface. The high level structure may interact with a lower level structure configured to manage communication by establishing communication with another device via one or more transports. In at least one embodiment, provisions may be made to guard against data being lost when a transport fails, including storing data that is passed from a transport-independent buffer to a transport-specific buffer in case the transport fails. When a failure occurs, the stored data may readily be forwarded for sending using another transport.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 27, 2008Publication date: January 6, 2011Applicant: NOKIA CORPORATIONInventors: Arto Palin, Juha-Matti Tuupola, Timo Eriksson, Jukka Reunamäki

Publication number: 20090297993Abstract: An oxyfuel combustion system for generating power that includes a furnace for combusting carbonaceous fuel and substantially pure oxygen to produce exhaust gas including mainly carbon dioxide and water. An exhaust gas channel system discharges the exhaust gas from the furnace. The exhaust gas channel system has an upstream channel, an outlet channel and a gas recycling channel. The upstream channel recycles a recycling portion of the exhaust gas through the recycling channel to the furnace, and conveys an end portion of the exhaust gas through the outlet channel for final processing. The upstream channel is divided between a first divider piece and a connecting piece into a first exhaust gas channel portion and a second exhaust gas channel portion. A gas-gas heat exchanger arranged in the first exhaust gas channel portion transfers heat from exhaust gas in the first exhaust gas channel portion to gas in the gas recycling channel.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 30, 2008Publication date: December 3, 2009Applicant: FOSTER WHEELER ENERGIA OYInventors: Zhen Fan, Timo Eriksson, Ossi Sippu

Publication number: 20090293782Abstract: A method of generating power by oxyfuel combustion. Carbonaceous fuel and oxidant gas are fed into a furnace. In a first operating mode, the oxidant gas includes a stream of substantially pure oxygen conveyed from an oxygen supply for combusting the fuel with the oxygen to produce exhaust gas including mainly carbon dioxide and water. The exhaust gas is discharged from the furnace and is divided into a recycling portion and an end portion. The recycling portion is recycled to the furnace. Heat is transferred from the end portion to the stream of substantially pure oxygen by circulating a liquid heat transfer medium in a passage between an exhaust gas cooler and an oxygen heater.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 30, 2008Publication date: December 3, 2009Applicant: FOSTER WHEELER ENERGIA OYInventors: Timo Eriksson, Zhen Fan, Ossi Sippu

Publication number: 20060158341Abstract: A system including a device including an RF tag embedded in a casing, and a mobile phone having an RF tag reader which is operable upon reading the RF tag to perform an operation associated with said RF tag. When the user wants to perform a certain operation with the phone, he can by-pass the normal input technologies, typically a keypad, by manoeuvring the device such that the RIF tag is read by the RF tag reader, and then the personal communication apparatus performs an operation associated with the RF tag. Thus, the present invention offers rapid access to regularly used functions or operations without the need to navigate a menu. Moreover, access to these regularly used functions is made intuitive by associating a physical object, i.e. the device, with an operation.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 26, 2003Publication date: July 20, 2006Inventors: Jan Chipchase, Timo Eriksson, Hideki Ohhashi, Kiyotaka Takahashi, Eigo Mori, Makoto Sugano
