Abstract: Combinational weighing by ranks is carried out by supplying articles of different weights to a plurality of weighing devices one at a time, measuring individual weights of these articles by the weighing devices, classifying the weighed articles individually into ranks according to their measured weights, and carrying out combinational weighing only on those of the weighed articles in a same rank. The combinational weighing is carried out preferentially on the articles in the most populated rank. An apparatus for this method not only includes a plurality of weighing devices, an article supplying units adapted to supply articles of different weights one at a time to these weighing devices, and a device for carrying out combinational calculations but also is adapted to classify weighed articles into ranks according to the measured weights. A system for combinational weighing includes such a combinational weighing apparatus, a packaging machine for receiving articles of a combination selected by the apparatus and packaging them to produce a packaged product, a sorter for sorting these packaged products by the ranks, and a control unit for controlling the operations of the packaging machine and the sorter according to the rank of the articles to be packaged together.

Eine Steuerungseinrichtung (z.B. SCP) im Übertragungsnetz empfängt die Anforderung (SDRQ), wertet sie aus und leitet sie an eine Dateneinrichtung (z.B. SDP) weiter, von der die Schnittstelleninformationen (SWIN) bereitgestellt werden. Zur Übertragung der Schnittstelleninformationen (SWIN) wird eine Datenverbindung zwischen der Dateneinrichtung (z.B. SDP) und der Funkteilnehmerstation (MS) aufgebaut, die die Schnittstelleninformationen (SWIN) in der Abwärtsübertragungsrichtung über einen Datenkanal (UDTC) eines Datendienstes empfängt. Die Vorteile liegen in der Vermeidung von zusätzlicher Übertragungskapazität für die Anpassung und im Abruf der Schnittstelleninformationen nur auf Anforderung der adaptiven Funkteilnehmerstation.

Abstract: An electromagnetic dam is employed to confine a vertically disposed pool of molten metal at the open end of the space between two counter-rotating, casting rolls in a continuous strip caster. The dam comprises three magnetic flux conductors each having a pair of spaced-part surfaces adjacent to and facing in the direction of the pool of molten metal. Two such surfaces of a first flux conductor define a relatively wide air gap adjacent the top part of the molten metal pool; two such surfaces of a second flux conductor define a relatively narrow air gap adjacent the bottom part of the pool, at the nip between the casting rolls; and two pool-facing surfaces of a third magnetic flux conductor are disposed between the spaced-apart surfaces of the first flux conductor in the wide air gap. Coils, for conducting a time-varying electric current, are associated with the three magnetic flux conductors to develop, at the air gaps, horizontal magnetic fields which confine the molten metal pool at the open end of the space between the casting rolls.

Abstract: A method of producing a computer program for a
computer capable of operating in a plurality of disjoint
instruction sets. The method produces a plurality of
independently callable functions (202). For each
function the method determines a target instruction set
employed by the function (203). The method provides the
function with a name corresponding to the target
instruction set (206). The function name is preferably a
modification of a user provided function name
corresponding to the target instruction set. The method
identifies each call of another independent function and
provides each with a name corresponding to the target
instruction set. The method produces a veneer function
for each function and for each other instruction set
(208). The veneer functions include changing the
computer from operating in the other instruction set to
operating in the target instruction set, calling the
corresponding function, changing the computer to operate
in the other instruction set, and a return command. Each
veneer function is provided with a name corresponding to
the other instruction set (209). Each function and its
corresponding veneer functions are converted into a
linkable object code module and then linked into an
executable object code file of the computer program. The
linker preferably omits from the executable object code
file any veneer functions not called by a function.

Abstract: An ATM reassembly controller is disclosed that
optimizes the utilization of host memory space and
hardware resources such as I/O bus bandwidth, host memory
bandwidth, memory system bandwidth and CPU resources.
The system combines, whenever possible, the PDU status,
PDU data and pointers to the host memory data buffers
into a large burst write to the status queue. In
addition, multiple status bundles are packed into a host
memory buffer for efficient use of memory. An additional
benefit of combining and packing information is that CPU
resources are conserved by having combined the
information the CPU must access into to a contiguous
memory area.
