20100246930 | INSPECTION APPARATUS AND METHOD USING PENETRATING RADIATION - Products in multiple lanes are passed side-by-side through X-ray inspection apparatus and an image is acquired. Different parts of the image corresponding to the different product lanes are subjected to different numerical processing, so that product anomalies are in each case readily visible or reliably detected using automatic threshold discrimination. The same X-ray power may therefore be used to inspect products having widely different X-ray attenuation characteristics. | 09-30-2010 |

20090207839 | MULTICAST DELIVERY - A method and nodes in a communication network for controlling multi-cast delivery of files, wherein the multi-cast delivery is adapted to reduce the amount of required uni-cast file deliveries in the communication network. A browser of an IPTV Terminating Function requiring a file interrogates a cache of the IFT for the file content before a uni-cast request for file delivery is sent to an Application Service Platform. The files stored in the cache have been previously delivered to the IFT via the proposed multi-cast mechanism. If the file content is not stored in the cache, a uni-cast request is sent to the ASP. Each uni-cast request is also forwarded to a Multi-Cast Controller, which determines whether the requested file should be sent also to a plurality of additional IFTs on a multi-cast channel. At each IFT, listening to the multi-cast channel, the received content can be handled selectively according to a filtering mechanism, and a received file may, e.g. be stored in the cache for later retrieval. | 08-20-2009 |
