Patent EP-0821310-A2 (EP)
Inventor: GOODRUM ALAN L
IPC: G06F13/36
Filed: 1997-06-04
Abstract: A computer system includes a data storage device on a
first data bus, a requesting device that initiates a
delayed request on a second data bus, and a bridge device
that delivers the delayed request to the first data bus
and, after the requesting device regains control of the
second data bus, begins providing data to the requesting
device while the data storage device is providing the
requested data to the bridge device.

Abstract: A mobile communications system has base stations for communicating with wireless
mobile devices and interconnected by an asynchronous transfer mode (ATM)
communications network which includes ATM switching centres. A handover process
coordinates transfer of communications with a mobile device from one base station to
another as the device moves between their respective service areas. In order to avoid time-critical
updating of routing tables in the switching centres in synchronization with handovers,
base stations which are likely to be involved in a handover from the base station currently
communicating with the mobile device are identified in advance. ATM cells being routed
through the network to the mobile device are multicast to these base stations, in addition to
the base station communicating with the mobile device. Thus when a handover occurs to
another base station it is already receiving the cells destined for the mobile device without
the need for a simultaneous change of the routing tables.

Abstract: Ce tube de ligne de transmission de signal de déclenchement (10a, 10b, 10', etc.), qui transmet efficacement un signal de déclenchement le traversant, comprend au moins une ligne de rupture (20a, 20b, 20c, etc.) dans la paroi du tube. Ces lignes de rupture (20a, 20b, 20c, etc.), qui peuvent être des cordons de soudure et/ou des rainures, sont rompues par le passage du signal de déclenchement. La carcasse du tube épuisé est divisée ou fragmentée, de sorte que de telles carcasses constituent des déchets moins encombrants que les carcasses de tube de choc intactes sur un site de travail. Si le tube est extrudé, une ligne de rupture peut être formée par mise en contact de la paraison (18) à partir de laquelle le tube est réalisé avec un moyen de formation d'entailles tel qu'une pointe ou une lame (124a, 124b). Eventuellement, le moyen de formation d'entailles peut être déplacé radialement pendant le processus d'extrusion pour produire des lignes de rupture en serpentins ou hélicoïdales. Les lignes de rupture se coupent de préférence périodiquement et, lors de l'allumage, le tube se fragmente en éclats. Dans une variante, le tube (50d) peut être extrudé en segments (62) qui adhèrent entre eux au niveau d'interfaces (64) qui constituent des lignes de rupture sur le tube. Eventuellement, certains segments (62) peuvent être formés à partir de matériaux extrudés différents des autres segments.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for making localized or non localized
folds, curls, patterns, etc. having a casual shape on ready-to-wear clothing
articles. For this purpose, according to the invention curling means are
applied along the garment seams and the so curled garment is subjected
to treatments such as fading, dyeing, sand blasting, scratching, brushing,
"stone-washing", etc., acting only or mainly on the exposed fabric areas
and to a less extent or to no extent at all on the inward curl areas, to
determine the desired final effect. 
     The curl, obtained by means of any suitable material, e.g. strings, threads,
elastic bands, clips or the like being applied on the seams, can be made
on the whole garment or just a part thereof (for instance in the case of
trousers a "wear" or light-and-shade effect can be achieved by making
folds or the like, for example only in the knee area).

of a binder system. The binder system contains a sufficient amount of
polypropylene or polyethylene to hold the so-called brown preform of the
molded metal or ceramic powder together for the sintering step of the injection
molding process and a sufficient amount of partially hydrolyzed cold water
soluble polyvinyl alcohol to facilitate molding of the composition into the so-called
green preform of the article to be manufactured. The debinding step of
the injection molding process for transforming the green preform into the
brown preform consists simply of immersing the green preform ill water at
ambient temperature to dissolve the polyvinyl alcohol, water and plasticizer.
