Title: One-phase commit in a shared-nothing database system
Inventor: CHANDRASEKARAN SASHIKANTH
IPC: G06F17/30
Filed: 2004-07-28
Abstract: Techniques are provided for handling distributed transaction in shared-nothing database system where one or more of the nodes have access to a shared persistent storage. Rather than coordinate the distributed transaction using a two-phase commit protocol, the coordinator of the distributed transaction uses a one-phase commit protocol with those participants that have access to the transaction status information maintained by the coordinator. The transaction status information may reside, for example, in the redo log of the coordinator. In case that the coordinator fails, those participants can determine the state of the distributed transaction based on information stored on the shared disk. In addition, the coordinator is able to determine whether it is possible to commit the distributed transaction based on information that is stored on the shared disk by the participants, without those participants entering a formal "prepared " state.

Patent CA-2550100-A1 (CA)
Inventor: RONGIONE JOSEPH C
IPC: C11C3/10
Filed: 2003-12-23
Abstract: A process to refine esters of conjugated linoleic acids via distillation in a single or multi-pass distillation operation is provided. Thermal rearrangeme nt of conjugated linoleic acid components during distillation is prevented or reduced by the use of a low residence time and/or reduced pressure distillation apparatus. A process to produce refined esters of conjugated linoleic acids is also provided. The process transesterifies a linoleic acid - containing oil to generate an alkyl ester composition which further undergoe s isomerization at a temperatures typically between about 90-140 ~C to form an ester stream containing conjugated linoleic acid esters, which is then distilled to obtain the refined esters of conjugated linoleic acids. The transesterification and isomerization steps can be performed in one reaction vessel without an intervening distillation step. The transesterification and isomerization steps can occur concurrently in a continuous reaction system using a dual reaction zone apparatus. Refined ester compositions produced by the processes and enriched in desirable conjugated linoleic acid isomers are also contemplated.

A plurality of gas blowing devices (24) having valve boxes (25), gas flow passages (26), valve elements (27), and gas inflow amount restricting valves (28) are installed on the bottom face of the cavity (23) of a drag (22). Gas is supplied from a common pump to the gas flow passages (26) of the gas blowing devices (24). The valve elements (27) vertically move so as to open and close the cavity (23) side openings of the gas flow passages (26). When the gas is supplied to the gas flow passages (26), the valve elements (27) are moved upward by the pressure of the gas to press the molded product (34). The valves (28) move upward together with the valve elements (27), and sit on valve seat parts (31) in the gas flow passages (26) to restrict the inflow of the gas into the gas flow passages (26). Since vent holes (32) are formed in the valves (28), the gas successively flows into the gas flow passages (26) though the inflow amount of the gas is decreased.
