Abstract: In a method for attaching metal fittings, such as loops, staples or the like, in particular to textile or plastic sheets, at least one top part of the fitting being attached by stamping, riveting or the like to a bottom part of the fitting with interposition of the sheet, a solution is to be provided, by means of which the insertion is greatly simplified. This is achieved in that, when inserting attachment rivets, at least the number of attachment rivets necessary for attaching a fitting part are attached captively to the bottom part of the fitting in front of the assembly position, the prepositioned and captively attached rivets are placed in a stamping or riveting tool and are connected to the top part of the fitting with interposition of the sheet or the like in one operation. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A large parallel processing network that employs a set of content accessible memories operating in parallel in response to input signals, and operating further in conjunction with a selection network that selects and enables only one of the constituent memories. The selection is based on the value of the stored data. In one embodiment the vectors to be stored are grouped so that the vectors in each group are closer to each other than to vectors in other groups, and each group is stored in a different constituent CAM. The proper CAM is selected in a preprocessing manner with another CAM that is responsive to the input. In another embodiment no grouping of the vectors is required but each constituent CAM develops an analog signal which indicates the measure of closeness of its output to the input. Based on these analog signals, in a post-processing manner, a selection network identifies the proper CAM and enables that CAM to the exclusion of others.

Abstract: Carrying devices (11) carrying processed articles are stored at coded processed-article storage locations (10) and unloaded article carriers are stored at unloaded-carrier storage locations (13). A customer's token is scanned and an unloaded article carrier is taken from its storage location (13) and delivered to him by transport means (18 to 20), he arranges for his article for processing to be carried away by the article carrier and a computer records a newly created relationship between his token and the article carrier. After processing, his article is stored at a selected processed-article storage location (10) and a computer records a newly created relationship between his token and the selected storage location. When the customer re-presents his token, the processed article is taken from the selected storage location and delivered to the customer by the transport means (18 to 20). Before the unloaded article carrier is taken from its unloaded-­carrier storage location (13), the computer may record a newly created relationship between the article carrier and the storage location.

Abstract: A strain wave gearing 10 comprises two circular splines 11,12 juxtaposed with each other, a flexspline 13 in the circular splines having the same number of teeth as the first circular spline 11, a wave generator 14 for deforming the flexspline into for example an ellipsoid and a motor for rotating the wave generator. In this flat-shaped gearing, each tooth of the flexspline 13 is provided with a convex tooth face and a concave tooth flank. The tooth profile of the first circular spline 11 is given by such a locus curve L that the tooth face of the flexspline plots when the deformed configuration of the flexspline is rotated by the wave generator 14, and the tooth depth GI of the first circular spline 11 is made equal to or larger than the working depth of the flexspline 13. Thus, the teeth of the flexspline engage with those of the first circular spline to give an engagement region of broader extent than hitherto.

Inventor: WOLF JOEL L
IPC: G06F12/00

Abstract: A practical mathematical algorithm is used to solve the so-called "File Assignment Problem" (FAP). The File Assignment Problem (FAP) is partitioned into two sequential optimization problems, called the macro model and the micro model. The macro model is solved by a Non-Linear Programming Model (NLPM) and a Queuing Network Model (QNM). The Non-Linear Programming Model (NLPM) takes as input detailed information on the computer system configuration and performance characteristics down through the Direct Access Storage Device (DASD) level, and, using the Queuing Network Model (QNM) as its objective function evaluator, determines the "optimal" Direct Access Storage Device (DASD) relative access rates as output. The micro model is solved by a Binary Linear Programming Model (BLPM), although the QNM is also involved to help determine the Binary Linear Programming Model (BLPM) stopping criteria. The input to the micro model consists basically of the output from the macro model, together with statistics on the access rates of the various files in the computer system. The output from the optimization is an "optimal" assignment of files to Direct Access Storage Devices (DASDs.) The micro model algorithm can be utilized in either an unlimited file movement mode or a limited file movement mode, the former being used when the computer system undergoes a major reconfiguration while the latter is used on a once per week basis. The Binary Linear Programming Model (BLPM) is solved by a "neighborhood escape" type heuristic. The procedure provides a real-world, practical solution to the File Assignment Problem (FAP) resulting in significant increases in performance.

Abstract: Optical broadband communication transmission systems for transmitting a multiplicity of broadband signals, particularly television signals, via an optical waveguide are known in which the signals are modulated by frequency modulation onto carriers having different frequencies and the modulated carriers are transmitted as a frequency-division multiplex signal. In the known systems, the carrier frequencies used are located within a single frequency band which has a width of less than one octave which means that when a large number of signals is to be transmitted, the frequency band must be located in a very high frequency range. 
<??>According to the invention, carrier frequencies are used which are located in different frequency bands (B1, B2, B3), each band having a maximum width of one octave and the various bands being located apart by at least one octave. This makes it possible to adapt the system step by step to the existing channel requirement, using tried and conventional transmission facilities for the individual frequency bands.
