Abstract: One embodiment of the present invention provides a system that facilitates
communications between a cluster of nodes within a clustered computing system
in a manner that tolerates failures of communication pathways between the nodes.
The system operates by configuring a distinct logical pathway between each
possible source node and each possible destination node in the cluster, so that
each distinct logical pathway is routed across one of at least two disjoint physical
pathways between each possible source node and each possible destination node.
In doing so, the system configures a first logical pathway between a first node and
a second node across a first physical pathway of at least two disjoint physical
pathways between the first node and the second node. Upon detecting a failure of
the first physical pathway, the system reroutes the first logical pathway across a
second physical pathway from the at least two disjoint physical pathways between
the first node and the second node. In one embodiment of the present invention,
the system associates a distinct per-node logical address with each node in the
cluster. For each source node, the system associates the per-node logical address
of each possible destination node with a corresponding logical pathway to the
destination node. In this way, a communication from a given source node to a
per-node logical address of a given destination node is directed across the
corresponding logical pathway to the given destination node.

Abstract: A technique for reducing reconvergence time by a reconverging device in a PIM-SM
domain of a communication system involves sending by the reconverging device to a
neighboring device a reconvergence message including a reconvergence indicator, such as a
randomly selected Generation Identifier value. In response to the reconvergence message, the
neighboring device sends to the reconverging device a PIM Bootstrap Message identifying the
Rendezvous Point devices in the PIM-SM domain. The reconverging device creates the
appropriate PIM-SM states for the Rendezvous Point devices. Additionally, the neighboring
device sends to the reconverging device a PIM Join/Prune Message for each multicast group for
which the neighboring device supports a downstream multicast group member. The
reconverging device creates the appropriate routing entries for the multicast group memberships,
and forwards each PIM Join/Prune Messages towards its corresponding Rendezvous Pointer
device. Additionally, the reconverging device detects any directly connected multicast group
members, and sends to the neighboring device a PIM Join/Prune Message for each multicast
group for which the reconverging device supports a directly connected multicast group member.

Abstract: An electrochemical assay includes a method for
determining with great accuracy the time at which an
applied sample bridges a gap between the electrodes of an
electrochemical cell. The method involves applying a
constant small current across the gap, while monitoring
the potential difference between the electrodes. The
time at which the sample bridges the gap is marked by a
sharp drop in the potential. A constant voltage is
applied after the sample is detected, and the current
and/or charge through the sample is monitored over a
period of time. From the measured current or charge, the
analyte concentration of interest can be calculated.

Abstract: A process for producing synthetic quartz glass using a burner composed of a plurality of concentric nozzles involves the steps of feeding a silica-forming raw material gas and a fluorine compound gas to a reaction zone from a center nozzle, feeding oxygen gas from a second nozzle outside the center nozzle, and feeding oxygen gas and/or hydrogen gas from a third nozzle. The silica-forming raw material gas is hydrolyzed to form fine particles of silica, which particles are deposited on a rotatable substrate so as to form a porous silica matrix, which is then fused to give the quartz glass. The flow rate of the oxygen gas fed from the second nozzle and the flow rate of the raw material gas are controlled so as to provide a 1.1- to 3.5-fold stoichiometric excess of oxygen. The excess oxygen suppresses Si-Si bond formation in the quartz glass, enabling the production of synthetic quartz glass having a high transmittance in the vacuum ultraviolet region.

Abstract: A system and method for preventing a call from being dropped changes from
a first set of serving base station(s) for the call to a second set of serving base
station(s) which can be determined independently by both the wireless unit and the
wireless communications system. As such, the wireless unit can attempt to recover
the call using the second set of serving base station(s) even without the availability of
a communication link between the wireless unit and the current set of serving base
station(s). The wireless communications system can independently determine a
second set of serving base station(s) for the call using information known at both the
wireless communication system and at the wireless unit before the communication
link was severed. For example, the wireless unit and the communications system can
determine the second set of serving base station(s) using the candidate list identified
with a previous pilot strength measurement message (PSMM) known to have been
successfully reported to the wireless communications system. After the wireless
communications system and the wireless unit determine that a call is in danger of
being dropped, the wireless unit and the wireless communications system can
automatically add base station(s) in the candidate set to the active set in attempting to
recover the call.
