Abstract: According to the invention for assembling/disassembling a printed circuit board (2), a specially shaped spring (7) is to be integrated inside the device (20). The assembly/disassembly of the printed circuit board (2) in the device (20) is simplified by virtue of the fact that the printed circuit board (2) has to be pressed only against the spring (7) and a fixed supporting part (6) of the device (20) to which the spring (7) is attached. In order to be able to press the printed circuit board (2), among other things, perpendicularly against the fixed supporting part (6), the specially designed leg spring (7) is fastened underneath the fixed supporting part (6). The legs (7.1, 7.2) of this spring protrude outward on both sides beyond the top side (6.1) of the supporting part (6). During assembly, the printed circuit board (2) is guided between the top side (6.1) and the protruding spring legs (7.1, 7.2). The printed circuit board (2) is fixed by additional supporting parts (4, 5) of the device (20).

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for controlling data transmission between a first and a second telecommunications system (1, 5), in addition to a telecommunications assembly and a telecommunications system for carrying out a method of this type. The underlying principle of said method is that at least one telecommunications connection used in a communications operation, namely the logic Li-connection/association of said connection (1 </= i </= 7), is only completed for the purposes of data transmission, if current data to be transmitted exists between the telecommunications systems (1, 5). Once said data has been transmitted between the telecommunications systems (1, 5), disconnection of the previously completed logic connection/association(s) is triggered immediately or within a short period of time at the end of the data transmission. It is preferable if not all parts of the connection are disconnected and that the parts of the connection between the telecommunications systems that have not been disconnected do not incur substantial costs or cause other impediments, or do not register the partial disconnection.

Abstract: A cascadable AGC amplifier in a signal distribution system includes a low noise cascadable amplifier having a through path and a cascadable output. The cascadable amplifier is also configured to provide AGC over a predetermined input power range. The cascadable AGC amplifier can be configured to provide gain or attenuation. When the cascadable AGC amplifier is implemented in a signal distribution system, typically as part of a signal distribution device, an input signal can be gain controlled and supplied to multiple signal paths without distortion due to degradation of signal to noise ratio or distortion due to higher order amplifier products. The distributed signal is not significantly degraded by distortion regardless of the number of cascadable AGC amplifiers connected in series or the position of the cascadable AGC amplifier in the signal distribution system.

Abstract: A packaging material is formed by a substrate, and an inner sealing layer comprising a polyolefin layer and an aqueous dispersion-type polyester resin layer successively disposed on the substrate. The aqueous dispersion-type amorphous polyester resin layer contains an anionic surfactant or an amphoteric surfactant and is substantially free from an organic solvent having a boiling point of at most 100  DEG C. The thus-formed packaging material is excellent in aroma-retentivity, aroma non-adsorptivity, particulate non-adhesion, low residual solvent and sealability. The packaging material is also free from environmental problem and is therefore suitable as a packaging material for particulate medical supplies and health foodstuff.

Abstract: Address translation control (ATC) limits the mappings between virtual and physical addresses in order to implement a memory access policy. Each processor in a multi-processor system maintains a translation lookaside buffer (TLB) that caches mappings to speed translation of virtual addresses. Each processor also maintains a counter. Each time a processor's TLB is flushed, the processor's counter is incremented. When a link to a page is removed from an address translation map, the counter values for all of the processors are recorded. When that page is accessed by a processor, the recorded counter values are compared with the processor's current counter value to determine whether the processor's TLB has been flushed since the link to the page was removed from the map. An expensive TLB flush operation is delayed until needed, but still occurs early enough to prevent an invalid TLB entry from being used to violate the access policy.

Abstract: A surgical severing and stapling instrument clamps tissue within an end effector of an elongate channel pivotally opposed by an anvil. An E-beam firing bar affirmatively maintains a desired spacing while severing and stapling tissue by longitudinally engaging the anvil and elongate channel. Separate closing action and firing (i.e., severing and stapling) action of the end effector allows a clinician to selectively position and clamp tissue. The end effector enables this advantageous separate firing while affirmatively spacing the end effector by having an upper pin of the firing bar reside within an anvil pocket before firing. When the anvil is closed and clamped, the upper pin of the E-beam firing bar may move longitudinally and distally from the anvil pocket to an anvil slot thereby engaging the anvil. <IMAGE> <IMAGE>
