Patent CA-2053692-A1 (CA)
Inventor: STALLMO DAVID C
IPC: G06F3/06
Filed: 1991-10-18
Abstract: ABSTRACT A method for on-line reconstruction of a failed storage unit in a redundant array system,  After providing a replacement storage unit for the failed storage unit,reconstruction begins for each data stripe in the array.  General reconstructionconsists of applying an error-correction operation (such as an XOR operation on data blocks and a corresponding parity block) to the data blocks from the remain-in storage units in the redundancy group, and storing the result in the corre-sponding block of the replacement storage unit.  If a Read operation is requested by the CPU for a data block on the replacement storage unite, then a concurrent Read task is executed which reconstructs the stripe containing the requested data block.  If a Read operation is requested by the CPU for a data block not on the replacement storage unit, a concurrent Read task is executed which performs a normal Read.  If a Write operation is requested for any data block, then a concurrent Write task is executed which performs a Read-Modify-Write sequence in the general case (the Read operation being performed in accordance with the above rules).

Abstract: ABSTRACT     A flexible clay liner in roll form for use on steep slopes.          The liner includes a layer of geotextiles.  The geotextiles are stitched together in rows of stitches which extend along the length of the liner.  The thread used to make the stitching is a multifilament thread treated with a resin to prevent wicking through the liner.  The spacing of the rows of stitches and the frequency of stitches along the rows are sufficient to transfer shear stresses through the bentonite layers, thus preventing the bentonite from becoming a shear plane.

Abstract: An apparatus (10) utilizing the present methods for fabricating dual textured food pieces is disclosed.      Specifically, cavities (20) are formed in and defined by the inner surfaces (26) of first and second, circular plates (22,24). The cavities (20) are moved along a circuitous path by rotation of the plates (22,24).      During the first portion of the circuitous path, the plates (22,24) abut and are pressed together by being sandwiched between a movable jaw (54) and a stationary jaw (52) and by rollers (38) rolling on the outer surfaces (28) of the plates (22,24). Two adjacent cavities (20) are simultaneously filled by a food injection manifold (42) with first and second food materials which are metered through pumps (72,74) each having two inlets (76,78) and two outlets (80,82).      After being filled, the cavities (20) are cooled by an air manifold (44). During the second portion of the circuitous path, the plates (22,24) are separated by a wedge (40) which flexes the second plate (24) away from the first plate (22). The food pieces are allowed to fall by gravity between the separated plates (22,24), with any remaining food pieces being blown out of the cavities (20) by a piccolo tube (48). In the preferred form, the bottom of the cavities (20) are initially filled by the first food material, then the first food material is coextruded with a second food material, with the first food material encircling the second food material, and the first food material is finally extruded to fill the top of the cavities (20). The resulting dual textured food piece includes a hard outer shell portion and a softer inner core portion.

Abstract: Analog circuit parts in an integrated circuit, for example filters, can be equalized by a control current by equalizing an additional reference circuit part, whose equalization must be verified externally, with this control current. By using a suitably designed horizontal frequency oscillator whose equalization must also be verified, this reference circuit part can be dispensed with even in known TV receivers. Using additional control circuits in the integrated circuit, fine equalization of the various circuit parts can be carried out automatically by adding a small correction control current to each control current. As a result, the control circuits are free from problems related to background noise, interception range and component tolerances. Equalization of analog bipolar or CMOS integrated circuits.
