Abstract: A system and method for updating a system that controls files executed on a workstation. The workstation includes a workstation management module configured to detect the launch of an application. A workstation application server receives data associated with the application from the workstation. This data can include a hash value. The application server module can determine one or more categories to associate with the application by referencing an application inventory database or requesting the category from an application database factory. The application database factory can receive applications from multiple application server modules. The application database factory determines whether the application was previously categorized by the application database factory and provides the category to the application server module. Once the application server module has the category, it forwards a hash/policy table to the workstation management module. Upon receipt of the hash/policy table, the workstation management module applies the policy that is associated with the launched application to control access to the application on the workstation.

Abstract: Ein Lichtdrehschalter für Kraftfahrzeuge wird vorgestellt, der eine von mechanischen Einflüssen freie Haptik gewährleistet. Der Lichtdrehschalter hat einen um eine Achse drehbaren und axial verschiebbaren Betätiger, der drehfest mit einem Drehstellungsmelder sowie axial mit einem Axialpositionsmelder gekoppelt ist. Ferner hat er eine elektronische Auswerteschaltung, der die Signale vom Drehstellungsmelder und vom Axialpositionsmelder zugeführt werden und die nach einer fest eingespeicherten Entscheidungsmatrix aus den Signalen diskrete Schalterzustände ableitet, die in Schaltsignale zur Ansteuerung der Beleuchtungsanlage des Kraftfahrzeugs umgesetzt werden. Der Drehstellungsmelder ist durch ein Potentiometer gebildet, das der Drehbewegung einen vernachlässigbaren Widerstand entgegensetzt, so dass von dem Drehstellungsmelder keine mechanischen Einflüsse ausgehen. Der Axialpositionsmelder ist durch ein Lichtschrankensystem verwirklicht, von dem ebenfalls keinerlei mechanische Rückwirkungen ausgehen. Die Haptik des Lichtdrehschalters ist daher weitgehend konsistent.

Abstract: The rotation conversion mechanism (50, 50', 150) in a power steering apparatus converts the relative rotation between input and output shafts (2, 102, 3, 103) connected by a torsion bar (6, 106) into relative rotation between a first rotating element (31, 111) and a second rotating element (32, 112). The ratio of the latter relative rotation angle to the former relative rotation angle is set as an invariable fixed value. An actuator (20, 120) is controlled by a control mechanism (30, 131) so that steering assist force which corresponds to the relative rotation angle between the two rotating elements (31, 111, 32, 112) is generated. When the relative rotation of the input shaft (2, 102) to the output shaft (3, 103) is converted into relative rotation of the first rotating element (31, 111) to the output shaft (3, 103), the direction of rotation is reversed by a reversing element (54, 54', 154).

Abstract: An MTJ in an MRAM array or in a TMR read head is comprised of a capping layer with a lower inter-diffusion barrier layer, an intermediate oxygen gettering layer, and an upper metal layer that contacts a top conductor. The composite capping layer is especially useful with a moderate spin polarization free layer such as a NiFe layer with a Fe content of about 17.5 to 20 atomic %. The capping layer preferably has a Ru/Ta/Ru configuration in which the lower Ru layer is about 10 to 30 Angstroms thick and the Ta layer is about 30 Angstroms thick. As a result, a high dR/R of about 40% is achieved with low magnetostriction less than about 1.0 E-6 in an MTJ in an MRAM array. Best results are obtained with an AlOx tunnel barrier layer formed by an in-situ ROX process on an 8 to 10 Angstrom thick Al layer.
