Abstract: A position sensor for an aircraft nacelle thrust reverser door for an aircraft turbojet engine includes a target to be detected, a detector having a detection range and including a detection head configured to detect the target when it enters its detection range, and a target guide configured to guide the target in order to position it in the detection range of the detector. The detector is stationary relative to the target guide. In one form, the target is intended to be positioned on the door, and the detector and the target guide are intended to be positioned on a stationary structure of the thrust reverser. In another form, the target is intended to be positioned on a stationary structure of the thrust reverser, and the detector and the target guide are intended to be positioned on the door.

Abstract: A technique for determining which permissions are required to perform certain administrative tasks efficiently records the required permissions between record and stop signals. An administrator presses a record button on a graphical user interface (GUI) and subsequently enters commands to perform the administrative tasks. After the last command is entered, the administrator presses a stop button on the GUI. Commands need not actually execute between the record and stop signals, but rather permissions for each command need to be recorded by an administration application, which is able to organize sets of permissions as roles. When a given user is associated with a particular role, the user is assigned all permissions for the role. Using this technique, the administrator may delegate administrative tasks to the user without the inefficiencies of conventional trial and error methods.

Abstract: The invention relates to a digital integrated apparatus capable of registering and fetching image data, and has an object to solve various problems resulting from the necessity of the user authentication at the time of using the apparatus. Specifically, it is arranged that, the display-input control means 92a classifies the user authentication under the first user authentication in a specific level and the second user authentication in a lower level than the first one, and then judges based on the initial setting whether the result of the second user authentication is valid or not. The first user authentication is based on the attribute of user's personal information including a user registration card Ku, and the second user authentication is based on the user ID and password inputted from the control panel 92. Therefore, it is possible to limit the fetching by using the other person's user ID and password.

Abstract: A data storage/transmission hardware device (or multiple devices physically linked together) with two (or more) access channels is disclosed. One of the access channels allows for reading and writing of information (referred to as the “active channel”) while the other access channel(s) (referred to as “passive channels”) allow solely for the reading of information. The actual limitation of “write” access of the passive access channels is brought about by a combination of hardware and firmware. The information stored/or transmitted through the device may be (but is not limited to) data such as digital, graphical, image, multi-media, stream or any other type of computing information. This methodology spans multiple media and computing device types.

Abstract: Systems and methods consistent with the present invention authenticate resource requests in a computer system having a resource controller and a bus. Such systems and methods may monitor the bus for resource requests made to the resource controller, intercept at least one resource request made to the resource controller, determine if the intercepted resource request is authentic, and allow the intercepted resource request to be fulfilled by the resource controller if the resource request is authentic, and otherwise, allow the request to time out.
