Abstract:
A process and system for user-controlled configuration of an Internet-protocol (IP) network wherein the user may supply input for generating a network classification profile (NCP), which includes a number of classes of service (COSs) for prioritizing network traffic. Network packets belonging to a COS may be classified according to a packet parameter. The NCP may be used to prioritize packets sent to the network from a network ingress router. A queuing profile for scheduling packets received from the network based on the NCP may also be generated and used by a network egress router. The packet parameter may be based on information in the packet header.
Abstract:
An alert processing system and method are adapted for processing device alerts. The system includes a routing device in communication with a printer. The routing device receives at least one alert description in a source language transmitted from the printer. The routing device identifies a set of words derived from the alert description related to a condition of the associated device. The routing device compares the set of words, in a target language, to a categorization model and, based on the comparison, categorizes the set of words into to one of a predetermined set of alert categories.
Abstract:
Various embodiments disclosed herein are directed to gaming devices having a secured basic input/output system (BIOS) and methods for determining the validity of the gaming device's BIOS. According to one embodiment, the gaming device includes a secured module for authenticating the BIOS of the gaming device. During the boot-up process, the secured module selects a challenge from a plurality of challenges, and the selected challenge is issued to the BIOS. The BIOS generates a response to the challenge, and the secured module determines whether the BIOS response matches the calculated response of the secured module. If the BIOS response matches the secured module response, the gaming device continues the boot process. Otherwise, the boot process is halted by the gaming device.

Abstract:
In one embodiment, the present invention is a method and apparatus for customer-controlled routing management. In one embodiment, a system for managing routing in a virtual private network includes a configuration management system for receiving settings from a user of the virtual private network, the settings specifying at least one of: virtual private network topology and routing preferences, and for provisioning the virtual private network in accordance with the user settings and a validation management system for validating the provisioned virtual private network.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein, a process for producing sulphoxide compound of the Formula (I) by asymmetrically oxidizing a prochiral sulphide of the Formula (II) with an effective amount of oxidizing agent in the presence of a chiral transition metal complex without using an organic solvent and base.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a process for preparing 4,4′-dimethylbenzophenone of formula (1) by reacting toluene with para-toluoyl chloride (p-T-CI) acylating agent over a solid acid triflic acid functionalized mesoporous zirconia catalyst.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein are zeolite compositions comprising structural units of the formulae: wherein “B” and “C” are spacer groups comprising C2 to C20 hydrocarbyl groups; and R1 and R2 independently of each other comprise alkali metal, hydrogen, or C1 to C20 alkyl groups. The zeolite compositions further comprise structural units derived from a heteropolyacid compound of the formula: (M3)3(M4)(M5)12O40; where M3 comprises hydrogen or an alkali metal; M4 comprises phosphorus or silicon, and M5 comprises tungsten or molybdenum. Methods for preparing these zeolite compositions are also disclosed. The zeolite compositions are useful as catalysts for producing bisphenols.
Abstract:
A system for providing a multi-game gaming machine having mechanical reel strips is displayed. The use of the projection devices onto blank mechanical reel strips transforms the multi-game gaming machine to a mechanical reel video game. These projection devices project the multi-game symbol images over the exposed portions of the mechanical reel strips. The projection devices are to be positioned such that its image projection covers one, two, or three reels of the available viewable area. The multi-game symbol projected images are theme based and can be easily changed or updated. The multi-game gaming machine has access to changing reel strips, and as such a number of sets of symbols can be displayed based on a game selection and corresponding image polarizer orientation.
