Registration of non-configured network devices in a distributed network is facilitated by a method of distributing cryptographic keys. A non-configured first device seeking to communicate securely with a second device acquires knowledge of a trusted registration service. The first device registers with the registration service and obtains a longer-lived symmetric key. Using the longer-lived key, the first device authenticates itself to a key management service, and receives a shorter-lived symmetric key encapsulated in a ticket that includes policy information. A second device carries out the same preparatory process. Using its ticket containing the shorter-lived key, the first device requests the second device to obtain a session key on behalf of both. The second device presents its own ticket and that of the first device to the key management service to authenticate the shorter-lived key, and then obtains a session key for use in communications among the first and second devices. The first device and second device then communicate by encrypting communications with the session key, and without further contact with the key management or registration services or any other online authoritative server or key database. Thus newly deployed network devices may be positively identified, registered in the network, and subjected to key schedule or other key management policies.

A method and circuit for precisely synchronizing clocks in separate nodes on a communication network is provided by adjusting timestamps and related data in network messages. The circuit will allow a daisy-chain connection of the nodes and will forward time synchronization frames while accounting for delays in a manner that does not use boundary clocks, but does not depart from the IEEE 1588 standard protocol. The delays will be added on the fly to synchronization packets and the IP checksum and frame CRC will be adjusted. Deterministic data delivery and redundant data paths are also provided in a full duplex Ethernet network.

A method and apparatus for monitoring a patient's respiratory status during the delivery of gases, such as supplemental oxygen. In one embodiment, a conduit carries a continuous flow of gas to an airway of a patient over a plurality of respiratory cycles and a gas flow characteristic of the gas in the conduit is monitored using a pressure sensor, a flow sensor, or both. The gas flow characteristic is used to determine a respiratory variable for the patient.

A wet ammonium flue gas cleaning process for desulfurizing and denitrifying and a system thereof are disclosed. The process oxidates NO in the flue gas to be NO2, makes SO2 and NO2 in the flue gas react with ammonium to product ammonium sulfite, ammonium nitrate and ammonium nitrite, then oxidates ammonium sulfite and ammonium nitrite therein to product the byproduct that is ammiaonia sulfate and ammonium nitrate, and lastly gets the clear flue gas after demisting to the desulfurizing and denitrifying flue gas. The system comprises a dust pre-collector, a hydrogen peroxide or ozone sprayer, and a desulfurizing and denitrifying tower, which are connected in turns, wherein ammonia replenishment system and an air feeding device are mounted at the bottom of the desulfurizing and denitrifying tower, sprinkling layer which can cycle sprinkle is mounted at the middle, and a demister is mounted at the upper. The invention has a simple process, a simplified system, a low investment and operation cost. The invention not only has a high efficiency in desulfurizing and denitrifying, but also a high utilance of desulfurizing and denitrifying absorbent, and byproduct of desulfurization and denitration can be utilized as chemical fertilizer of ammiaonia sulfate and ammonium nitrate.

In the color imaging system, multiple rendering devices are provided at different nodes along a network. Each rendering device has a color measurement instrument for calibrating the color presented by the rendering device. A rendering device may represent a color display in which a member surrounds the outer periphery of the screen of the display and a color measuring instrument is coupled to the first member. The color measuring instrument includes a sensor spaced from the screen at an angle with respect to the screen for receiving light from an area of the screen. A rendering device may be a printer in which the measuring of color samples on a sheet rendered by the printer is provided by a sensor coupled to a transport mechanism which moves the sensor and sheet relative to each other, where the sensor provides light from the sample to a spectrograph. The color measuring instruments provide for non-contact measurements of color samples either displayed on a color display, or printed on a sheet, and are self-calibrating by the use of calibration references in the instrument.

A doubles detection system for detecting doubled documents. The system comprises one or more light sources disposed on a first side of a test document and one or more reflected light sensors disposed along the first side of the test document. The reflected light sensors are adapted to generate reflected light signals. The system also comprises one or more transmitted light sensors disposed along a second side of the test document which are adapted to generate transmitted light signals. The system also comprises a memory having a master reflected light value and a master transmitted light value stored therein. The system comprises a processor adapted to receive the reflected light signal, generate a reflected light value for the test document, and calculate a reflectance ratio between the reflected light value of the test document and a master reflected light value. The processor is also adapted to receive the transmitted light signal, generate a transmitted light value for the test document, and adjust the transmitted light value for the test document based on the reflectance ratio. The processor is adapted to compare the adjusted transmitted light value for the test document to the master transmitted light value and generate a doubles signal if the comparison of the adjusted transmitted light value for the test document with the master transmitted light value indicates that more than one document is present.
