The method may comprise establishing unencrypted communication between the remote device and the medical device, generating an asymmetric key pair by the remote device comprising a public key and a private key, generating a key request message and sending of the key request message together with the public key to the medical device, generating a pre-master key and encryption of the pre-master key with the received public key by the medical device, generating a key response message and sending of the key response message together with the encrypted pre-master key from the medical device to the remote device, decrypting the encrypted pre-master key with the private key by the remote device, and deriving a master key as a symmetric key from the pre-master key.

Sending a data stream from a sending endpoint to a receiving endpoint, wherein both of the sending endpoint and the receiving endpoint each have multiple physical interfaces connecting the sending endpoint and the receiving endpoint to multiple networks, respectively, is provided. The data stream is split into a series of data packets and sent over the multiple physical interfaces. A next available data packet of the series is sent over a fastest one of the multiple physical interfaces. A data packet from further back in the series is extracted in accordance with a determined expected difference in arrival time, and sent on a corresponding slower one of the multiple physical interfaces. The next available data packet is sent from the sending endpoint nearly simultaneously as the extracted data packet is sent from the sending endpoint.

The invention provides for systems, devices, and methods for displaying animations on devices with low-memory capacity or low-processing power, such as a mobile device. Animation sequences can by created using scene graphs of nodes. Nodes can be embedded nodes, collection nodes, or image nodes. Embedded nodes can be an embedded scene graph, a collection node can be a collection of nodes that reference collection of image sets, and an image node can be a reference to an image file and an affine transformation. Image sequences can be used using affine transformations. The affine transformation matrices can then be exported to an animation data file. Inclusion of affine transformation matrices with animation data files can reduce the memory required to store multiple image files and can reduce the computation power required to display animations. The systems, devices, and methods for displaying animations can allow for a high degree of creative freedom while reducing memory and processing requirements on a client device.

A method and system for providing real-time electronic information for risk assessment and management for multi-market electronic trading. The method and system dramatically improve an infrastructure used by electronic traders over a communications network by separating one or more data streams from one or more trading exchange with plural different types of electronic trading information into plural separate data streams that can be selectively used on a target device. The plural separate data streams and can be requested, displayed and used faster and more efficiently than an entire data stream including all the multiple types of electronic trading information for real-time risk assessment and management.

At telecommunications switches and routers, RED (random early packet discard) uses the queue depth to determine whether to keep or discard each packet as it arrives at a queue. This is done by determining a discard probability (P), which is dependent on the average depth of the queue, and comparing the discard probability to a random number. One way of performing the invention uses the summed discard probabilities, instead of counting the number of packets (count) and multiplying that by the current discard probability, as in the prior art. The resulting sum is compared to the random number for discard operation. The disclosure further describes a more accurate way of calculating average depth of a queue, especially when the queue encounters periods of idleness.

The invention relates to improving medical interventions and in certain instances to the generation of image data, in particular data acquired during a medical intervention or procedure.

In a system in which several data links are available for the transmission while one respective sending unit is allocated to the data links to temporarily store data that is to be transmitted via the respective data link, data packets containing non-real-time critical data are subdivided into fragments of variable sizes prior to forwarding to a sending unit. Data packets containing real time-critical data are preferably forwarded to a sending unit without being fragmented. Additionally, a minimum fragment size can be predefined for the fragmentation process.

The invention describes a method of frequency tuning an electrical generator (100) for supplying electrical power to a plasma, wherein the method comprises a pulsed mode, the pulse mode comprising at least a high power pulse (314) comprising a high power level (304) and a low power pulse (312) comprising a low power level (302) different to zero power, the method comprising the steps of: --providing RF-power with a high power starting frequency set comprising at least one high power starting frequency (502, 504, 506) at the high power pulse (314) with a predefmed high power pulse shape; --providing RF-power with a low power starting frequency set comprising at least one low power starting frequency (512, 514) at the low power pulse (312) with a predefmed low power pulse shape; --determining a reflected high power at the high power starting frequency (502, 504, 506); --tuning the high power starting frequency (502, 504, 506) to a different first high power frequency if the reflected high power exceeds a high power threshold value such that the reflected high power decreases below the high power threshold value; --determining a reflected low power at the low power starting frequency (512, 514); --tuning the low power starting frequency (512, 514) to a different first low power frequency if the reflected low power exceeds a low power threshold value such that the reflected low power decreases below the low power threshold value.

The method, the electrical generator, the plasma processing system and the computer program product may have the advantage that the stability of the plasma with respect to repeated and essentially identical high and low power pulses is used to reduce the controlling effort and to check the stability of the plasma process.

A method for setting up a monitoring camera includes tilting a camera head of the camera to a tilting position in which an optical axis of the camera substantially coincides with a rotational axis that the camera head is turning around when panning, and in which the camera head is able to capture images through a wide angle lens arranged in a fixed position in relation to a base of the camera. The camera head is turned around the optical axis of the camera and captures images until wide angle images captured through the wide angle lens present the desired orientation. A home position value for a pan motor of the camera is stored, wherein the position value represents the position value for the pan motor when the captured wide angle image presents the desired orientation.
