Abstract: A fuel metering control system for an internal combustion engine including a feedback loop having an adaptive controller and an adaptation mechanism that estimates controller parameters θ̂. The adaptive controller corrects the quantity of fuel injection to bring a controlled variable obtained at least based on an output of said air/fuel ratio sensor, to a desired value. The adaptation mechanism is input with the controlled variable once per prescribed crank angle such as a TDC of a certain cylinder and estimates the controller parameters. Since, however, the input is limited to a specific cylinderʹs air/fuel ratio, the air/fuel ratio is averaged for all cylinders and used in the calculation. Similar averaging is made for the other parameters input to the mechanism or output from the controller.

Abstract: A high availability backplane architecture includes redundant node boards operatively communicating with redundant switch fabric boards. Uplink ports of the node boards are logically grouped into trunk ports at one end of the communication link with the switch fabric boards. The node boards and the switch fabric boards routinely perform link integrity checks when operating in a normal mode such that each can independently initiate failover to working ports when a link failure is detected. Link failure is detected either by sending a link heartbeat message after the link has had no traffic for a predetermined interval, or after receiving a predetermined consecutive number of invalid packets. Once the link failure is resolved, operation resu mes in normal mode.

Abstract: Es wird ein Verfahren zur Abschätzung einer Querbeschleunigung eines Fahrzeugs, insbesondere eines Nutzfahrzeugs vorgeschlagen. Der abgeschätzte Wert der Querbeschleunigung dient insbesondere zur Verhinderung des Umkippens des Fahrzeugs in kritischen Fahrsituationen. Eine zu erwartende Querbeschleunigung wird aus dem Lenkwinkel und der Fahrzeuggeschwindigkeit mit Hilfe einer Berechnung oder einer Tabelle vorherbestimmt. Hierdurch ergibt sich ein Zeitvorsprung gegenüber einer gemessenen Querbeschleunigung, welcher zur frühzeitigen Abbremsung des Fahrzeugs durch eine Stabilitäts-Regelung (ESC) oder eine Umkippverhinderung (RSC) benutzt werden kann.

Abstract: In order to prevent any scratches from occurring at a back-end edge of a disk when a feeding roller finishes ejecting the disk and a user tries to grab and draw out the disk, a second ridge disposed on a side of an opening for inserting the disk of two ridges located on both sides of the feeding roller is made up of a straight part without any gradient for a specified range in a central part, a first tapered part with a sharp gradient within a specified range on both sides thereof, and a second tapered part with a gentle gradient on both sides further thereto. When the disk is drawn out for ejecting, only the back-end circumferential periphery of the disk point-contacts the first tapered part with a sharp gradient and accordingly it is possible to prevent any damage to the disk due to any possible line contact between the disk and the ridges.

Abstract: An entire paper document is scanned as a
double-sided printed part, subjected to a process such
as image correction, and printed without any
consciousness of single- and double-sided printed
parts. In this case, even a single-sided printed
original part undergoes double-sided printing, and
unnecessary copying is done and charged even for a
blank lower surface of the single-sided printed part.
To avoid unwanted charging, very cumbersome operation
must be done. That is, single- and double-sided
printed original parts are sorted, and each sorted part
is scanned. Single- or double-sided printing is
designated for each scanned part, and printing is
executed by a designated number of copies. According
to this invention, whether the lower surface of a paper
sheet is blank is determined. When the lower surface
is determined to be blank, the image data of the upper
surface of the paper sheet is documented together with
a single-sided printing attribute; when it is
determined not to be blank, the image data of the two
surfaces of the paper sheet are documented together
with a double-sided printing attribute. The image data
is printed by controlling single-/double-sided printing
of a device for the image data in accordance with the 
single- and double-sided printing/double-sided printing
attribute documented together with the image data.

Abstract: An adaptive rate management method and system for adapting a receiver rate to a transmission rate in a packet switch network comprises determining an error value at a sample rate, obtaining an updated accumulator value based on said error value E s  at a decimated sample rate, and generating an appropriate rate command and changing said accumulator value at the decimated rate based on the updated accumulator value. The method may be adapted for either adapter point management or bit stuffing. When applied to adapter point management (APM), the method generates pointer adjustments for rate management. In a frequency locked APM preferred embodiment of the method and system, pointer adjustments in an interval are generated at a constant rate based on an average pointer adjustment value calculated in previous intervals.

Abstract: A system and method for mapping payload data to a spreadsheet list. The present invention comprises a system for mapping payload data to a spreadsheet list while supporting the implementation of nested tables, without the use of a schema. After receiving a spreadsheet list, the present invention generates the parent path of each field path defined in the spreadsheet list. The longest parent path may be used to generate a set of nodes from the payload data. If more than one unique parent path qualifies as the longest parent path, then such parent patents may be designated as branch bottom paths. All other parent paths may then be associated with an appropriate branch bottom path. During the binding process, each branch bottom path may be evaluated to generate result nodes, which may be used to obtain the values of the fields of the spreadsheet list.
