| 20090170512 | Maintaining IMS Registration While Disconnected from IP Bearer - user equipment while the user equipment is disconnected from the system. The user equipment connects to the proxy and establishes a proxy session with the proxy. The proxy opens a proxy session for the user equipment, establishes a registration within said IMS network for IMS services on behalf of the user equipment; and maintains the registration for the user equipment for the duration of the proxy session. While the proxy session is ongoing, the user equipment can disconnect from the IP proxy. | 07-02-2009 |
| 20110154181 | APPARATUS, METHOD AND COMPUTER-READABLE STORAGE MEDIUMS FOR DETERMINING APPLICATION PROTOCOL ELEMENTS AS DIFFERENT TYPES OF LAWFUL INTERCEPTION CONTENT - An example apparatus is provided that includes a processor and a memory storing executable instructions that in response to execution by the processor cause the apparatus to at least perform a number of operations. The operations include receiving a communication including an application protocol primitive that itself includes protocol information element(s). The operations also include comparing the application protocol primitive to a protocol document type definition (DTD) including a plurality of elements, and lawful interception attribute(s) for one or more of its elements. The application protocol primitive is compared to the DTD to identify lawful interception attributes of protocol information element(s) of the primitive. The operations also include preparing one or more of the protocol information elements for transmission to an interception monitoring facility according to the lawful interception attributes of the respective protocol information element(s). | 06-23-2011 |

| 20120077546 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR CUSTOMIZING APPLICATION PROTOCOLS - An approach is provided for customizing application protocols. A protocol management module receives a request to execute an application at a device. The application includes a set of protocol features. The protocol management module determines one or more protocols for the application based, at least in part, on one or more criteria. The protocol management module then determines a subset of the protocol features to enable or disable based, at least in part, on the one or more protocols. | 03-29-2012 |

| 20080230202 | CONTINUOUS CASTING PLANT - The invention relates to a continuous casting installation, for example for steel billet and bloom formats having substantially rectangular or circular cross-section. The invention improves the strand structure in the corner areas, to avoid rhomboidity, cracks and dimensional imperfections of the strand cross-section while achieving a high throughput capacity per strand and reducing investment and running costs. The fillets of the groove curvatures in the die cavity amount to a proportion of the length of the side of the strand cross-section. The degree of curvature 1/R of the groove curvatures decreases in the direction of the strand at least along at least partial length of the entire casting die, thereby achieving gap elimination between the casting shell and the casting die wall and/or a targeted casting shell shaping in the area of the groove curvature. The continuous casting installation, directly downstream of the casting die, may thus be provided with a strand support-free secondary cooling zone or a supporting guide in the secondary cooling zone that is reduced in its supporting width and/or supporting length. | 09-25-2008 |
| 20080251231 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR THE CONTINUOUS CASTING OF PRELIMINARY STEEL SECTIONS - In a method and apparatus for the continuous casting of preliminary steel sections, the liquid or molten steel is introduced substantially vertically into an open-ended die. The cross section of the cavity of the die is made up of a web part and one or more flange parts, for example, such as in preliminary double-T sections. The liquid core of the strand of the preliminary section is set in agitating motions transversely to the direction of continuous casting by selectively using electromagnetically-induced forces in the regions of the flange parts and/or of the web part. The agitating motions have the effect of exchanging the liquid steel in the molten crater of the strand of the preliminary section in and between flange parts and the web part. This allows the flow and temperature conditions in the liquid steel crater within the strand of the preliminary section to be actively influenced in a targeted manner and stabilization of the region of the surface of the liquid metal to be brought about, along with favorable and controllable flow conditions. | 10-16-2008 |

| 20080278191 | Leakage Power Management with NDR Isolation Devices - A method and system for minimizing sub-threshold leakage in a logic block is disclosed. An NDR isolation device is coupled between the logic block and ground to form a virtual ground node. To put the logic block into sleep mode, the virtual ground control device raises the voltage at the virtual ground node above an isolation voltage, which causes NDR isolation device isolates the virtual ground node from ground. The virtual ground control device can then raise the voltage at the virtual ground node to the positive supply voltage to eliminate sub-threshold leakage currents the logic block. Alternatively, the virtual ground control device can raise the voltage at the virtual ground node to the positive supply voltage minus a retention voltage so that storage elements in the logic block can retain state information while still greatly reducing sub-threshold leakage current. | 11-13-2008 |
| 20090106725 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR COMPUTING DUMMY FEATURE DENSITY FOR CHEMICAL-MECHANICAL POLISHING - One embodiment of the present invention provides a system that computes dummy feature density for a CMP (Chemical-Mechanical Polishing) process. Note that the dummy feature density is used to add dummy features to a layout to reduce the post-CMP topography variation. During operation, the system discretizes a layout of an integrated circuit into a plurality of panels. Next, the system computes a feature density and a slack density for the plurality of panels. The system then computes a dummy feature density for the plurality of panels by, iteratively, (a) calculating an effective feature density for the plurality of panels using the feature density and a function that models the CMP process, (b) calculating a filling amount for a set of panels in the plurality of panels using a target feature density, the effective feature density, and the slack density, and (c) updating the feature density, the slack density, and the dummy feature density for the set of panels using the filling amount. In one embodiment of the present invention, the iterative process is guided by a variance-minimizing heuristic to efficiently select the set of panels and assign/remove dummy density to the set of panels to decrease the effective feature density variation. | 04-23-2009 |
| 20100014199 | ELECTROSTATIC-DISCHARGE PROTECTION USING A MICRO-ELECTROMECHANICAL-SYSTEM SWITCH - Embodiments of an interface circuit are described. This interface circuit includes an input pad, a control node and a transistor, which has three terminals. A first terminal is electrically coupled to the input pad and a second terminal is electrically coupled to the control node. Moreover, the interface circuit includes a micro-electromechanical system (MEMS) switch, which is electrically coupled to the input pad and the control node, where the MEMS switch is in parallel with the transistor. In the absence of a voltage applied to a control terminal of the MEMS switch, the MEMS switch is closed, thereby electrically coupling the input pad and the control node. Furthermore, when the voltage is applied to the control terminal of the MEMS switch, the MEMS switch is open, thereby electrically decoupling the input pad and the control node. | 01-21-2010 |
