Patent EP-0709781-A2 (EP)
Inventor: NELSON MARVIN D
IPC: G06F3/06
Filed: 1995-07-11
Abstract: In a disk storage system having dual controllers (20,25) and mirrored memory (30,35) therebetween, the mirrored memory is used to establish a robust communication path between the controllers to monitor and coordinate their activities. A reserved portion of the memory in each controller is designated as a messaging mailbox (40,45) which is read and written by the owning controller but only read by the remote controller. The communication protocol between the controllers is tightly coupled to insure proper messaging. Furthermore, a sliding window interlock insures message detection and correctness. In addition, interrupt signals and timer based polling are used as a dual means for detecting communication requests and replies between the controllers.

Abstract: Individual devices of a redundant array of independent devices (RAID) are coupled to an electrical power supply. For devices having widely varying load impedances, such as disks, incident with the coupling of electrical power thereto, the replacement or addition of a device in the system, while the system is in operation, causes unacceptable power transients in the power supply. To minimize such power transients, a transient suppression circuit is employed to isolate the load impedance of the device from the power supply. Isolation is achieved in the transient suppression circuit by employing an active circuit element, such as a MOSFET power transistor, as the power coupler. A capacitor controlled voltage divider circuit, incident with the coupling of electrical power thereto, couples a time varying gate voltage, which changes as a function of the rate of charge of the capacitor, to the MOSFET power transistor. This slowly increases MOSFET conduction, thereby providing controlled conductive coupling of the electrical load of the device to the power supply.

Abstract: To effect exposure of the peripheral area of a wafer to remove an unnecessary resist with a step shape in a development process with high precision and ease, even if the position has errors, in which a circuit pattern is formed on a semiconductor wafer in a preceding process, according to the invention, before exposing the unnecessary resist on a wafer outside of the area on which a pattern is formed, the position of a singular shaped area, such as an "orientation flat" or the like is determined by a unit for determining the peripheral edge area of the wafer, and the rotating carrier is driven and the wafer is rotated until the singular shaped area is positioned in a predetermined position. Furthermore, according to the invention, a unit for determining the alignment marks computes and stores the positions of predetermined alignment marks, by which positional errors in the location in which the circuit pattern is formed are corrected. Then, the rotating carrier is driven again, and fine adjustment of the position of the exposure area on the wafer is performed.

Abstract: The payment method allows the card user to make payments or withdrawals in cash machines via a limited stored credit, using a simplified procedure. The credit can be supplemented via secure connections and procedures. A security module with chip card functions is inserted into the cash machine before the payment process. With each payment process a card user inserts his card with accounting function into the cash machine. First, data areas of the card are read out for plausibility control and to test the remaining credit. Then an authentication with the security module is carried out. Next, a single or multiple acceptance decision is made. Finally, the amount of money to be paid or credited is accounted to the user's card using a security function. The amount of money is also booked to a sum counter in the security module with a further security function. After payment process, the payment state of the security module with chip card functions is transmitted to a billing centre. The payment state may be read out together with a cryptographic test sum and may be transmitted to the accounting centre via a telecommunication interface.

Abstract: A slide clamp (109,109') has an aperture for receiving an I.V. tube (26). The aperture has a tube occluding slot (111,111') and a non-occluding passage (112,112'). When a tube is received in the aperture, the tube can be slided, transverse of its length, between the slot (111,111') and the passage (112,112'). The aperture has a substantially flat tube contacting surface (126) of a length (L) less than the distance (W) between the top and bottom of the clamp (109,109'). This minimizes friction between the surface (126) and the tube (26) when the tube is slided between the slot (111,111') and the passage 112,112').

Abstract: A hydraulic control apparatus for a continuously variable transmission includes an inhibit valve (31) that blocks the supply of hydraulic pressure to a reverse-drive brake (27) during forward movement, and an inhibit solenoid valve (32) that relieves the hydraulic pressure in a fluid passage acting on a spool (31a) of the inhibit valve (31) so as to move the spool (31a) to the closed side and also relieves the hydraulic pressure in another fluid passage (38f) acting on a highpressure regulator valve (43) to urge the same to the low-pressure side, thereby increasing the high fluid pressure. With this arrangement, it becomes possible to improve the transient response of the control apparatus without providing additional pressure control valves as done in the conventional apparatus. Further, the control apparatus can be manufactured with reduced number of components and thus at a relatively low cost.

The object may be a hammer, a shot, or a discus, and the throwing body may be a contestant who hurls the hammer, the shot, or the discus. The image of the throwing body is controlled to visually move in preparation for visually hurling the image of the object in the game space in response to manual operation of a controller, and the image of the object is controlled to be visually hurled from the image of the throwing body in the game space in response to manual operation of the controller. An image of an object-throwing guide is also displayed in the game space to indicate a throwing direction in which to hurl the image of the object from the image of the throwing body and which progressively varies depending on the movement of the image of the throwing body for visually hurling the image of the object. The displayed object-throwing guide which indicates the throwing direction allows the game player to easily recognize visually the exact time at which to hurl the object. The object-throwing guide is displayed in changing colors to indicate the remaining number of turns that the throwing body has to make before hurling the object.
