The present invention comprises a multi-tier system. Major goals of the system are to 1) clearly visualize BGP dynamics and alert/report important deviation of BGP dynamics to avoid overwhelming the operators with too much information and 2) analyze the root cause of the problems by using a multi-tier approach, with a light-computational analysis and high-level classification for a real-time problem identification followed by a more rigorous off-line analysis for a further and more detailed trouble shooting. An example embodiment is provided that comprises four modules. The first module comprises a distributed family of collectors in charge of collecting real-time network information. The second module filters out non-relevant prefixes and extracts and profiles key features of the network information. The third module monitors BGP activity from both an Internet-AS and single-AS perspectives by displaying the data in real time and highlighting major shifts or divergence from historical baselines with comprehensive layouts. The forth module is run off-line to focus on a few relevant events that are selected through the first three modules. This is usually a time-consuming phase of the process due to the different temporal and/or spatial correlation that must be run across several sets of data. During this phase, the system can spend more time to better identify the real cause of the problem.

A shock absorber includes a tube and a piston rod carrying a piston. The piston is configured for reciprocal movement within the tube. A floating piston, or other type of accumulator, is configured to move to accommodate fluid displaced due to successive portions of the piston rod entering the tube during compression of the shock absorber. The shock absorber includes a valve mechanism that utilizes the movement of the floating piston to move the valve between a first and second position, which preferably are open and closed positions.

After the main ball drop of a bingo game, a player may be given a free extra bingo number. A probability of awarding a free ball may be determined, at least in part, according to a desired paytable percentage for the bingo game (or vice versa). Some implementations of the invention provide multi-card bingo games. A player may be required to hit a predetermined pattern on more than one bingo card in order to obtain a progressive award. The number of hits in the pattern(s) and/or the number of bingo cards involved may be determined according to a desired progressive award size and/or a desired probability of obtaining the progressive award. Players may have an opportunity to purchase one or more additional bingo numbers after the main ball drop of a bingo game. A player may be provided the option of purchasing a block of more than one additional bingo number after the main ball drop. The player may be offered such a block at a discount, as compared to the price for purchasing the additional bingo numbers individually.

A cover for an electrical receptacle including a faceplate. The cover also includes a first transmission tab configured to be electrically connected to a first power line of the electrical receptacle and a second transmission tab configured to be electrically connected to a second power line of the electrical receptacle. Additionally, the cover includes a device (such as a light source, circuit, port, or sensor) in communication with the first transmission tab and the second transmission tab.

A display device of the present invention is mounted on an automotive vehicle. An obstacle located in front of the vehicle is detected by a camera, and its features including speed, distance, size, etc. are analyzed by electronic circuits. An image showing the features of the front object is outputted from a liquid crystal panel. The outputted image is reflected on the windshield, displaying a virtual image to a driver. The virtual image is displayed in a form of a spot encircling the front obstacle seen through the windshield. The ways of displaying the encircling spot are variously changed according to a degree of collision danger that is determined according to a period in which the vehicle reaches the obstacle. For example, if the degree of collision danger is high, the spot is shown in red-orange color and/or with a high brightness. Thus, the driver easily recognizes the front obstacle in a high degree of collision danger.

A vehicle surroundings information output system includes a vehicle surroundings information obtaining mechanism obtaining information about the vehicle surroundings, an object detector detecting an object around the vehicle based on the obtained vehicle surroundings information, an outputting mechanism outputting information relating to the detected object, a detection reliability determining mechanism determining the detected detection reliability of the detected object, and a notifying information generator generating notifying information that relates to that object according to the detection reliability. The notifying information generator is structured to generate notify information that does not easily stimulate at least one of the five senses of a driver when the detection reliability of the object is low as compared to when that detection reliability is high.

A light emitting device module is provided comprising a light emitting device package and a printed circuit board to which the light emitting device package is coupled, wherein the light emitting device package includes a sliding groove and a fixing groove, and wherein the printed circuit board includes a sliding protrusion coupled to the sliding groove to guide the light emitting device package to a predetermined position and a fixing protrusion coupled to the fixing groove at the predetermined position.

A wireless LAN access point device is structured to perform frame-based data transmission and reception to and from a wireless terminal over a wireless communication path. The wireless LAN access point device has a communication module configured to transmit and receive a frame to and from the wireless terminal. In the wireless LAN access point device, when the communication module receives a predetermined management frame from the wireless terminal, an execution module performs a corresponding operation specified by the received management frame. In the wireless LAN access point device, when the communication module receives a frame, a sequence monitor module obtains a sequence number included in the frame. In the wireless LAN access point device, when a first sequence number obtained by the sequence monitor module and a second sequence number included in the received management frame satisfy a preset condition, an unauthorized frame judgment module identifies the received management frame as an unauthorized frame. This arrangement has the high versatility and effectively protects a wireless LAN network from unauthorized accesses.

A focus control circuit is installed in an image pickup apparatus including a lens, a driver element for adjusting the position of the lens, and a position detecting element for detecting the position of the lens. A feedback equalizer included in the focus control circuit generates a drive signal used to adjust the position of the lens to a target position, based on a difference between the position of the lens identified by the output signal of the position detecting element and the target position of the lens set externally, and controls the driver element.

The present invention relates to a method of volume visualization in which volumetric data is provided, the volumetric data having first voxels belonging to a reference surface. Second voxels of the volumetric data are determined having a user selected distance from the reference surface. The second voxels are visualized.

An open fire multipurpose cooking grill generally comprising a metal “T” shaped stake that can be optionally driven into the ground or placed into a base stand holder in positioned near a campfire, patio fire-bowl, fire-ring, or charcoal container for cooking and tending to food, generally outdoors. The cooking grill having attached to it multiple bracket sleeves allowing for quick and easy installation and removal of multiple cooking grills and food preparation trays which can be raised and lowered and swiveled side to side closer to or further from the fire as needed.
