Patent EP-1358529-A2 (EP)
Inventor: MCKENNEY PAUL EDWARD
IPC: G06F9/52
Filed: 2001-12-28
Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé et un système informatique permettant la gestion efficace du verrouillage haute contention dans un système informatique de type multiprocesseur. Ce procédé permet de classer au moins une partie des processeurs du système selon une hiérarchie (910, 920), et de définir un verrou interruptible en réponse à cette hiérarchie. Ce procédé fait appel à deux types de processus d'acquisition de verrou, à savoir une primitive (800) d'acquisition de verrou conditionnelle, et une primitive (600) d'acquisition de verrou non conditionnelle, et une primitive de suppression de verrou non conditionnelle permettant de supprimer le verrou d'un processeur particulier. Un indicateur de libération est utilisé pour empêcher les compétitions entre les processeurs demandant une acquisition de verrou, et un processeur supprimant le verrou. Un indicateur de transfert est en outre utilisé pour assurer que le verrou est attribué à un processeur utilisant la primitive d'acquisition de verrou non conditionnelle. Ce système permet d'augmenter le rendement d'un système informatique par l'utilisation d'une primitive de verrouillage permettant la mise en place d'un verrou interruptible, qui assure la sélection des verrous entre les processeurs en fonction de la position hiérarchique du processeur et de la primitive utilisée pour la sélection du verrou.

Abstract: A navigation system comprises a cell-phone, a base
cellular telephone site, and a webserver. Each is paired
with a GPS receiver. The GPS receiver associated with the
cell-phone is aided with information received from the
cell-site and webserver that help reduce satellite search
uncertainty. Time difference and/or frequency difference
measurements are taken with data collected from what the
cell-phone and its GPS receiver assume to be accurate time
and frequency. Correction information is used in post-processing
of the velocity solutions computed by the cell-phone
to arrive at more precise determinations for the
system.

Abstract: In a switch operating mechanism, a switch of a circuit board is
disposed between a first pressing arm and a second pressing arm of a
pusher having a substantial U-shape when seen in side view, and the
first pressing arm is positioned directly above the switch. A front end
of an operating knob is disposed between the circuit board and the
second pressing arm. When the operator moves the operating knob
upward, the front end of the operating knob moves the second
pressing arm of the pusher downward. Thus the pusher moves
straight along the direction perpendicular to the plane of the circuit
board, and the first pressing arm of the pusher presses and activates
the switch.

Abstract: A system for controlling the distribution and use of digital works (101) using digital
tickets. In the present invention, a "digital ticket" is used to entitle the ticket holder to exercise
some usage right (102) with respect to a digital work. Usage rights are used to define how a
digital work may be used or distributed. Each usage right may specify a digital ticket which
must be present before the right may be exercised. Digital works are stored in repositories
which enforce digital works usage rights (105) when usage of a digital work is requested by a
requesting repository (103,104). Each repository has a "generic ticket agent" which punches
tickets. In some instances only the generic ticket agent is necessary. In other instances,
punching by a "special ticket agent" residing on another repository may be needed.

Abstract: A low cost block-type expansion valve 6 contains a hollow cylindrical strainer 20 in a
space provided for introducing high-pressure liquid refrigerant. The strainer 20
surrounds a valve element 17. Refrigerant introduced into a refrigerant pipe-connecting
hole 12 has to flow through the strainer 20 to the upstream side of the valve element 17.
Since the shape of a valve body 11 does not need to be substantially changed for the
provision of the strainer 20, it is possible to provided the expansion valve 6 without an
increase of the manufacturing costs.

Abstract: Apparatus and method for predicting failure in a system, comprises: a
measurement unit for repeatedly measuring a disorder indicator of the system,
and a comparator for comparing obtained measurements of the disorder
indicator with a predetermined statistical description of the disorder indicator.
The comparison is used to determine whether a deviation is present between
presently measured values of the disorder indicator and the statistical
description. The apparatus issues a failure prediction upon determination of the
presence of such a deviation. The apparatus is able to use routine monitoring
of the system and relies on its own statistical analysis of the behavior of the
disorder indicator, to provide fault prediction which is non-specific to the type
of fault. Thus no detailed knowledge of the system being monitored is
required, and furthermore the apparatus is applicable to systems irrespectively
of the system complexity.

Title: Machining an insulated optical fiber
Inventor: MUELLER EMMERICH
IPC: G02B6/245
Filed: 2002-02-15
Abstract: The invention relates to a device (1) for machining an insulated fiber (4) that is formed by an optical fiber (5) provided with an insulation (6). Said device comprises a holding device (2) in which the fiber (4) to be machined can be placed and which fixes the insulated fiber (4) placed therein. The device also comprises a grip jaw array (8) having two grip jaws (9). In an initial position, a segment (13) projecting beyond the holding device (2) of the insulated fiber (4) that is fixed in said holding device (2) extends in-between said grip jaws. The grip jaws can be displaced relative to one another and crosswise in relation to the fiber (4). Said grip jaws clamp a segment of the fiber insulation to be removed in a holding position. A cutting (11) device is also provided which cuts the insulation (6) to be removed crosswise relative to the fiber (4). The holding device (2) and the grip jaw array (8) can be displaced relative to one another and parallel to the fiber (4), whereby the fiber (5) is stationary relative to the holding device (2) when the holding device (2) and the grip jaw array (8) are displaced relative to one another while the insulation (6) that has been cut is stationary relative to the grip jaw array (8). In order to configure a particularly compact device, said device also has a splitting device (12) that splits the fiber (5) that is clamped and tensed between the holding device (2) and the grip jaw array (8) in a non-insulated segment by exerting tension crosswise relative to the fiber (5).

Abstract: The retainer (20) of the present invention is made of a composite material having a body made from a polymer, a layer of solid lubricant formed over the body by chemically coating the body with a porous layer of solid lubricant and impregnating the solid lubricant with another lubricant using conventional methods such as vacuum impregnation. The retainer (20) is placed between an outer raceway (32) and an inner raceway (34) to form a self-lubricating bearing (30). The bearing (30) made in this manner has high lubrication tolerance (i.e. it performs well in the absence of external lubrication). Because of its high lubrication tolerance, the bearing is suitable for use in various applications such as dental/medical hand pieces that are periodically sterilized and other applications which occasionally experience periods of lubrication starvation.
