Abstract: In accordance with the present invention, a system and method is provided for producing a safely disposable end product from waste matter containing undesirable materials, such as infectious, biohazardous, hazardous, or radioactive elements. The method comprises the steps of providing a highly basic solvent, immersing the waste matter containing the undesirable materials within the highly basic solvent, and heating the solvent. The waste matter containing the undesirable materials is allowed to remain within the solvent until digested, thereby forming a solution void of any infectious or biohazardous elements and/or containing a concentration of radioisotope below the maximum permissible concentration (MPC) for release to a sanitary sewer as defined in applicable federal regulations for the waste matter containing such materials.  The system includes a tank or vessel (12) capable of containing a highly basic solvent during a closed digestion reaction, heating means (30) for heating the solvent within the vessel, filtering means (40), and means (41) for removing the post-digestion aqueous solution and solid waste materials from within the vessel (12). The post-digestion product in both aqueous and solid form can then by disposed of by conventional means.

Abstract: A self-cleaning system for a convection cooking appliance controls the activation and deactivation of multiple heating units, as well as a blower, throughout an initial preheat and subsequent phases of a cleaning operation. In accordance with the preferred self-cleaning method, an initial, catalyst pre-heat stage is followed by a moderately high-temperature presoak stage. For the main cleaning operation, a high temperature stage is initiated in combination with a high convection air flow to establish high oven surface temperatures in a minimal time frame.      This timed stage is followed by a cool down period wherein both the temperature and convection speed is reduced. Thereafter, an intermediate temperature heating stage with medium convective air flow followed by a cooling stage are provided for preset time periods. This combination of intermediate temperature heating and subsequent cooling stages is repeated until the total self-cleaning time is completed.

Abstract: Système de gestion des tampons coopérant avec un système à commutation de paquets. Le système a pour objectif de réduire la congestion, d'améliorer le trafic de données, de traiter équitablement chaque source de données et d'améliorer la fonctionnalité du système tout en respectant ses caractéristiques avantageuses. Les tampons de sortie de matrice comprennent une fonction d'arbitrage et une fonction de qualité de service et sont associés à des tables de routage individuelles. Le système a recours à des opérations logiques simples qui n'exigent qu'un seul cycle d'horloge, même lorsque la fréquence d'horloge est élevée. Pour permettre la régulation de la bande passante, les sources dont les pratiques en matière de bande passante vont à l'encontre des intérêts du système sont prises en comptes. Lorsque des sources tentent concurremment d'obtenir une ressource, le système de gestion des tampons règle le trafic afin de résoudre le conflit de façon rapide tout en distribuant le trafic de façon équitable à l'aide d'une méthode d'arbitration pondérée fondée sur un circuit cyclique.
