Provided is an apparatus for detecting a network attack situation. The apparatus includes an alarm receiver receiving a plurality of alarms raised in a network to which the alarm receiver is connected, converting the alarms into predetermined alarm data, and outputting the alarm data; an alarm processor analyzing an attack situation in the network based on attributes of the alarm data and a number of times that the alarm data is generated; a memory storing basic data needed to analyze the state ...

Flight path angle is displayed relative to the aircraft reference indicator in a unique display and aircraft control system particularly useful during approach operations. Flight path angle is computed as a function of vertical velocity of the aircraft and air speed. Angle of attack is displayed as an angle relative to the flight path angle and is derived by computing the difference between pitch and flight path angle. In addition to displaying actual angle of attack and actual flight path angle...

A system for detecting abnormal situations associated with a heater in a process plant receives statistical data associated with the heater unit. The statistical data is analyzed to detect whether one or more abnormal situations associated with the heater exist. The statistical data may comprise statistical data generated based on pressure variables sensed by one or more pressure sensors associated with a furnace, a stack, a fuel supply, etc., associated with the heater. Additionally, the statis...

This invention concerns an integrated circuit (IC) device, such as smart cards, electronic wallets, PC cards, and the like, and various methods for authenticating identities and authorizing transactions based on the authenticated identities in a situation-dependent manner.

A computer-implemented network structure includes a semantic network machine comprised of nodes containing informational contents and links containing relational contents. Relational contents describe the relationship between linked nodes. Some of the nodes are semantic Janus units. Based on time-variable states of each semantic Janus unit, the semantic Janus units perform operations on nodes and links. The operations are focused on selected portions of the semantic network machine such that eac...

A method, device and computer program product that monitor situations. The method includes: processing information indicative of an occurrence of events to detect, in response to a current rule set, an occurrence of at least one situation that belongs to a situation set; wherein at least one rule sub-set out of the rule set defines at least one relationship between events that should occur within a lifespan; receiving a request to update a first rule; updating the first rule to provide a first u...

A system for measuring parameters during chest compression in a life-saving situation or a practice situation is provided, in which a pressure pad containing e.g. an accelerometer and a force activated switch (SW), as well as a calculation unit (B), is positioned on a patients chest, alternatively on or inside a manikin's chest, in order to register parameters such as depression distance, duration or rate of depressions during chest compression.

The invention relates to a process of detecting check sequences in a situation recognition system, composed of a list of events and time constraints. For each check sequence, a sequence of events and intervals between possible dates of occurrence of each of these events is created in memory. The process manages an internal clock differing from universal time, representing the current date of the system, updates the sequences of events for each situation upon each occurrence of a new event. This ...

A circuit for holding a MOS power transistor in a conduction state on the occurrence of an outage in the voltage supply, being of a type which comprises a first MOS transistor having its source connected to a line of the voltage supply and its drain connected to the gate of the power transistor, further comprises a diode connected between the drain of the first transistor and the gate of the power transistor, and a second transistor of the MOS type having its gate connected to the gate of the fi...
