Patent EP-0990206-A1 (EP)
Inventor: NESSETT DANNY M
IPC: G06F11/00
Filed: 1998-05-28
Abstract: A system provides for establishing security in a network that include nodes having security functions operating in multiple protocol layers. Multiple network devices, such as remote access equipment, routers, switches, repeaters and network cards having security functions are configured to contribute to implementation of distributed firewall functions in the network. By distributing firewall functionality throughout many layers of the network in a variety of network devices, a pervasive firewall is implemented. The pervasive, multilayer firewall includes a policy definition component that accepts policy data that defines how the firewall should behave. The policy definition component can be a centralized component, or a component that is distributed over the network. The multilayer firewall also includes a collection of network devices that are used to enforce the defined policy. The security functions operating in this collection of network devices across multiple protocol layers are coordinated by the policy definition component so that particular devices enforce that part of the policy pertinent to their part of the network.
Patent EP-0986784-A1 (EP)
Title: Loosely-coupled, synchronized execution
Inventor: BISSETT THOMAS D
IPC: G06F11/16
Filed: 1998-06-04
Abstract: Synchronized execution is maintained by compute elements processing instruction streams in a computer system including the compute elements and a controller. Each compute element includes a clock that operates asynchronously with respect to clocks of the other compute elements. Each compute element processes instructions from an instruction stream and counts the instructions processed. Upon processing a quantum of instructions from the instruction stream, the compute element initiates a synchronization procedure and continues to process instructions from the instruction stream and to count instructions processed from the instruction stream. The compute element halts processing of instructions from the instruction stream after processing an unspecified number of instructions from the instruction stream in addition to the quantum of instructions. Upon halting processing, the compute element sends a synchronization request to the controller and waits for a synchronization reply.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un système amortissant (10) ayant un corps (12) de cartouche léger, peu onéreux, à fine paroi, scellé aux deux extrémités par déformation mécanique de la paroi du corps en éléments de scellement (22, 24) qui scellent lesdites extrémités. De préférence, la paroi du corps est sertie au tambour de manière à comprimer les éléments de scellement et à établir un scellement entre la paroi et les éléments de scellement. De préférence, le corps comporte une bague de retenue (60) ayant une crête interne (70) qui pénètre dans la partie mécaniquement déformée de la paroi du corps. En conséquence, ladite bague est fixée axialement par rapport au corps. Etant placée autour du corps, la bague forme un épaulement sur ce corps. L'épaulement ainsi formé peut être inséré dans la cavité d'une jambe de fourche de suspension de bicyclette, ce qui permet d'y immobiliser la cartouche amortissante.

IPC: C10G9/28
Filed: 1998-06-03
Abstract: High temperature flash distillation, for treating residual oils originating from crude oil refining, natural bitumen and/or tar sands, comprises feeding the oil to a mixer with granular hot coke, which serves as a thermal transfer medium. In mixing, 60-90% of the oil is vaporized. The non-vaporized fraction includes metal-containing asphaltenes. This fraction is further converted in the mixer, to oil vapor, gas and coke. Gases and vapor are withdrawn from the mixer, separately from the coke. The vapor phase is cooled and condensed to produce product oil. The gas itself is a further product. The coke is reheated and recycled to the mixer as the thermal transfer medium.

The hydroxylapatite gel thus obtained exhibits excellent properties for use as a binding agent in moldable hydroxylapatite materials, comprising a granular filling material containing calcium in addition to the gel. The filling material is also preferably a hydroxylapatite material. Shaped bodies can be obtained from the hydroxylapatite material, which are most suitable for use in bone surgery as filtering materials. The invention further relates to a metal implant comprising a coating of the inventive hydroxylapatite material. The invention also concerns a method for producing the hydroxylapatite gel, the shaped bodies and the coated metal implant.
