International Classification:

G06F 1730

US Classification:

395600

Abstract:

Data concurrence processes and systems for maintaining concurrence of parallel sets of data stored in telecommunication Network Elements. According to a preferred embodiment of such processes, a Network Element such as a Service Node sends a Request Message to a second Network Element such as a Source Service Control Point in order to update data on that Source. The Source then sends a Request Message to the other Network Element, such as a Target Service Control Point, in order to update the parallel data contained in that Service Control Point. The Network Elements whose data are updated may send appropriate Result Messages in order to verify integrity of the data. The processes and apparatus also allow resynchronization of the data to occur at desired predetermined interval. These data concurrence processes and systems are particularly useful for implementing new services such as Personal Number Calling services in an intelligent telecommunications network, because they allow updating of the parallel databases quickly, efficiently, and with a minimum of required coordination, management and opportunity for lost communications, stale data, and mishandled call processing.

International Classification:

C07C 1202

US Classification:

585415

Abstract:

A process is disclosed whereby a C. sub. 5 hydrocarbon stream containing both olefins and paraffins is converted over an AMS-1B crystalline borosilicate catalyst or an AMS-1B crystalline borosilicate composition containing an ion or molecule of a catalytically active element such as a noble metal. The C. sub. 5 olefins are converted to aromatic hydrocarbons, C. sub. 3 -C. sub. 4 paraffins and olefins and C. sub. 6 -C. sub. 11 paraffins and olefins.
