![]() However, only 52 of these references were covered by the time expert reports were submitted. The plaintiffs also sought elevated costs because Bell cited 753 prior art references in its statement of defence and counterclaim. No aggravated costs were awarded to the plaintiffs for the reference to patent trolls. acknowledged that the term patent troll is not complimentary and the plaintiffs might be justified in feeling insulted, the term means different things to different people, and there was no objective untruth in its use, since the plaintiffs are non-practicing entities and it was ultimately shown there was no basis for alleging infringement. The plaintiffs also sought aggravated costs regardless of the outcome in view of a statement in Bell’s statement of defence to the effect that the plaintiffs were “patent trolls.” While Locke J. held that the plaintiffs had the necessary information to conclude there was no infringement as of February 2016, which was long before the trial took place in September 2016. rejected this assertion, and held that Bell could not reasonably be expected to be aware of the plaintiffs’ theory of infringement from the outset, and that once the heightened importance of certain questions was apparent, Bell acted in good faith and promptly provided more detailed information to the plaintiffs. The plaintiffs alleged the subsequent delivery of corrected answers effectively robbed them of the opportunity to decide whether to proceed to trial or not, resulting in wasted time and expense. Beginning on January 31, 2016, and continuing over the coming months, Bell began providing the plaintiffs with “corrected” answers to certain questions that dealt with the system architecture of the various IPTV services at issue, which were critical to the plaintiffs’ theory of infringement. Over the course of the action, Bell Canada had provided answers to questions on examination for discovery. This serves as a useful reminder that when drafting a patent, it is best to state alternate embodiments and possibilities explicitly, rather than resorting to arguments that the scope of a key feature would be well known to a person skilled in the art. arrived at this conclusion by noting a) the specification was silent as to the character of the demodulated signals, b) the specification discussed other signals at length in terms of being analog and/or digital, and c) the fact that digital signals were well known and not discussed gave rise to an inference that they were perhaps not contemplated by the inventor. ![]() identified four claim elements that were not present in any of Bell’s systems.Īmong the notable findings was that the claimed “demodulated input signals” (signals that are transmitted to, e.g., a television) were limited to analog signals only, which effectively extinguished any chance of a finding of infringement by any of Bell’s IPTV systems, which rely on digital signals. The ‘477 patent was found to be valid but not infringed. nevertheless performed standard analyses for claim construction, validity, and infringement for the claims that were not ultimately withdrawn by the plaintiffs.

Here, the plaintiffs brought an action for patent infringement, alleging Bell’s FibeTV and FibreOp TV services infringed several claims of Canadian Patent No. ![]() v Bell Canada, 2017 FC 6, provides a cautionary tale when applying this saying to the realm of patent infringement litigation when there is a low likelihood of success.

We describe the fabrication processes and compare experimental data on the optical properties in reflection and transmission with our simulations and photonic band structure calculations. The resulting samples are highly periodic thin-film inverted opals made of conducting and transparent zinc-oxide. We suggest as wavelength-selective optical element a 3D-structured optical thin-film, prepared by self-organized artificial opal templates and replicated with atomic layer deposition. This increases the efficiency for a typical a-Si / μc-Si tandem cell from 11.1% to 12.4%, as a result of the optical current-matching of the two junctions. From our previous simulations, we expect a significant improvement of the tandem cell efficiency of about absolutely 1.3%. Our device aims for the enhancement of the optical pathway of incident light within the amorphous silicon top cell in its spectral region of low absorption. The concept of a 3D photonic crystal structure as diffractive and spectrally selective intermediate filter within 'micromorphous' (a-Si/μc-Si) tandem solar cells has been investigated numerically and experimentally.

In this report, we demonstrate that combining the laser heating system with a tandem imaging acousto-optical tunable filter allows measurement of the temperature distribution under laser heating of the platinum plates as well as a visualization of the infrared laser beam, that is widely used for laser heating in diamond anvil cells. The main component of the system is a tandem imaging acousto-optical tunable filter synchronized with a video camera. Recently it has been shown that it is possible to measure the two-dimensional distribution of the surface temperature of microscopic specimens. Practical limitations on etalon plate smoothness and parallelism cause the defect finesse to be relatively low, especially in the ultraviolet, and this sets upper limits to the capability of tandem etalon filters to suppress the solar background at tolerable cost to the signal.Ĭombined laser heating and tandem acousto-optical filter for two-dimensional temperature distribution on the surface of the heated microobjectīykov, A. The principal parameter governing the performance of the etalon filters is the etalon defect finesse. Attenuators placed between the etalons can improve the filter performance, at modest cost to the signal transmittance. The role of reflective coupling between etalons is examined and shown to substantially reduce the contributions of the second and third etalons to the filter performance. Equations for evaluating this parameter are presented for single-, double-, and triple-etalon filter systems. The factor by which the signal to background ratio is enhanced is defined as a measure of the performance of the etalon as a filter. ![]() In this research methods for the design and performance analysis of Fabry-Perot etalons as solar background filters are presented. ![]() Single and tandem Fabry-Perot etalons as solar background filters for lidar.Ītmospheric lidar is difficult in daylight because of sunlight scattered into the receiver field of view. ![]() ![]() The main development goal remained to make a Civilization-like game playable over the Internet, with participants on different continents, even when connected with 14400 bit/s modems.

Just a few seconds of this camerawork provides an immediate sense of what exactly the Williamses were up against as a black family entering a predominantly white, middle class environment. I found myself cheering during Venus Williams’s professional debut match against Arantxa Sanchez-Vicario, before realising that I was in a private screening room watching a film, and not a tournament in sunny California! Other cleverly shot pieces include a scene showing Richard Williams and family entering an exclusive Florida country club. The camera pans across to show us the juxtaposition of a black family from Compton, California, entering a lily-white world – a scene accentuated by blonde tennis protégés dressed in tennis whites. During Venus’s coaching sessions with Macci, Williams doesn’t hold back on expressing his views and insisting on the open stance. ![]() Macci soon discovers that he is, in fact, entering a gang-ridden public park in Compton, with Richard Williams allegedly promising him that he won’t let Macci get shot! Other scenes provide insight into the inevitable coaching clashes between both men. One such moment happens when Richard Williams invites Rick Macci to the “Compton Country Club” to watch his daughters for the first time. There is good chemistry betwteen Bernthal’s and Smith’s characters, who re- enact various pivotal moments of the story, which are as funny as they are heart-warming. Rick Macci is played by Jon Bernthal – the charming, energetic tennis coach who Richard Williams negotiated a contract with to coach his daughters – first Venus, then Venus and Serena. Yes, it was Oracene who helped with this, not Richard, as we learn! This must have taken some serious training! Oracene Price’s position in this story is emblematic, and credit must go to her for bringing much needed balance and calm in ushering these two girls into the world, not least for helping Serena with that famous serve toss. I was therefore awestruck to notice that even mechanical details, like Venus’s characteristic tucked-in take-back on her double-handed backhand, Serena’s serve toss, and those trademark drive volleys, have been replicated by the actors. As a lifelong fan of Venus and Serena, I’ve observed and admired their distinctive strokes that set them apart from any other player I’ve seen. The resemblance is uncanny, and no detail is overlooked, including the tennis technicalities. Saniyya Sidney and Demi Singleton are also perfectly cast as young Venus and Serena respectively. For me, the slightly bittersweet moment was realising that the late eldest sister Yetunde would undoubtedly also have been in these credits were she alive today. Sister Lyndrea Price has contributed via costume design (it must have been fabulous to source those colourful tennis outfits from the 90s – my favourite tennis era!). The film’s executive producers – none other than Isha Price, Venus, and Serena – lend it further gravitas so this is as close to the real story as we can get! It is truly a family affair. Any actor playing this role needed to have bucketloads of the Richard Williams charisma, and Will Smith certainly delivers! ![]() Smith manages to add humour to the intensity in scenes such as when he visits tennis coaches at exclusive country clubs, telling them about his manifesto and how his daughters are going to be the best tennis players of all time. Richard Williams wrote a 78-page manifesto before Venus and Serena were born, setting out how he was going to raise two champions. Having read Richard Williams’s autobiography, I recognised some of the re-enacted scenes in the film. Will Smith is masterfully mesmerising in the title role, and I couldn’t take my eyes off his nuanced performance – the expressions, voice, and stooped gait are pure genius and Oscar-worthy. It has been three days since I watched the film, and I am still replaying some of the scenes in my head. Now that the worldwide embargo has been lifted, I’m delighted to share my review of this film. The film premiered at the London Film Festival on 15 October 2021 and is out on worldwide release from 19 November 2021. It was an honour to be invited by Warner Bros and Organic Publicity, as part of an intimate audience, to watch on 12 October 2021 at Warner House, Warner Bros HQ, London a private screening of the much-awaited film King Richard – a biopic of Richard Williams, the father and coach of Venus and Serena Williams. ![]() ![]() Sudo xattr -dr "/Applications/Toon Boom Storyboard Pro 20.

If there is a delay in one task, it ripples through the system to a greater or lesser extent. The so-called Gantt chart captured the notion of task dependencies: you’ve got to bang out the dings in your fender before you paint it. That changed with the Panama Canal, which was the first large operation to use the task management invention of an American mechanical engineer. So instead of managing tasks, you managed the task managers. In fact, the watch was the paradigm-buster of its age.Įarly management of enterprises wasn’t very methodical at all: decisions were allocated down the line using the French-invented “bureau” until there were so few tasks that they didn’t have to be managed. It has only been 150 years or so that portable timekeeping devices were available to the average person. It is a little hard to swallow, but the industrial revolution doesn’t go that far back, and the rise of large modern enterprises is even less old. But the history of modern task engineering is much simpler, especially if you focus on certain ideas. The history of task management goes back as far as civilization, I suppose. But I do hope it is ATPO material, the kind you can use to help discover some things about how you work and might want to in the future. As a result, the column you will read here and next month is much less thorough and even more unpolished. That, dear readers is what I hope ATPO to be. This journalist may even help users express such philosophies in a way that the developer community can respond with experiments.

What matters is the underlying philosophy of the product. They aren’t they just have different user interfaces. Just as the nature of the applications will change so must “application journalism.” It is not enough to write about FreeHand and Illustrator as if they were two different products. “Outlining” isn’t definitive it just happens to be a handy way of clumping tools that are at the cusp of this new generation. Nowhere will this be more apparent than in writing tools, organizing tools, task management tools, and different combinations of the three. No one will kill the others no monopoly will emerge. So a great many approaches will find similarly many different products, and those in turn will support the imagination and work of different types of users.
