Abstract: For certain operations performed in a multiprocessor system, the processors intercommunicate by exchanging requests and acknowledgements. The invention proposes a procedure according to which the operations involving the sending of multiple requests are executed without taking into account the receiving of the acknowledgements. The total number of requests involved is calculated and the number of acknowledgments received is counted. The end of the operation is conditioned by the equality of these two numbers. The invention also relates to a system for implementing the procedure, and the application of the procedure to the partitioning of the processes between the processors. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The lower framework (4) of the present trolley comprises lateral rods (7) extending behind the carrier basket (1) over a distance greater than the width of the boxes or other voluminous objects to be transported. The means provided for supporting the latter consist of two longitudinal support elements (9), in the general shape of a right angle, fixed against the inner side of the rear rods (7) of the framework, and the horizontal wing (10) of which support elements (9) is able to receive and support the corresponding edge of a box or similar. Now, the horizontal wings of these two elements leave a free space between them, the width (E1) of which is at least slightly greater than the width (E2) of the front part of the framework, so that several identical trolleys of this type can be nested in each other despite the presence of the supporting right angles thus provided.

Abstract: The machine comprises a machine bed (1), a grinding wheel (2), a control wheel (3), which is arranged in the longitudinal direction of the machine at a horizontal distance from the grinding wheel, as well as a work rest (4), provided between the wheels, for holding a workpiece to be machined. The work rest (4) is arranged on the machine bed, comprises a support body (17) and is adjustable only vertically in the machine. A first longitudinal slide (7) displaceable in the longitudinal direction of the machine is arranged on a first plate (5) pivotable in a horizontal plane, and a first cross slide displaceable in the transverse direction of the machine is arranged on this longitudinal slide (7). The first cross slide contains the grinding wheel (2). In a similar manner, the control wheel (3) is arranged on a second cross slide (11) which in turn is fastened to a second longitudinal slide (10) which in turn is mounted on a second horizontally pivotable plate (9). A first and a second dressing device (12, 13) each for dressing the grinding wheel and the control wheel respectively are connected in a fixed position to one each of the pivotable plates (5, 9). Both the work feed and the in-process measurement can be simplified by this arrangement. The numerically controlled axes for driving the said longitudinal and cross slides can be used for setting the wheels (2, 3) to the workpiece and for setting the wheels (2, 3) to the corresponding dressing device (12, 13). Relatively expensive numerically controlled drives can thereby be reduced in number compared with machines belonging to the prior art. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Cette invention concerne un procédé pour accroître la plage des valeurs représentant une image en couleur qui offrent une réponse linéaire. Pour accroître la plage linéaire, on crée des tables de consultation qui permettent de redresser les régions d'extrémité inférieure et intermédiaire des trois courbes représentant les variations de densité en fonction de l'exposition logarithmique du film jusqu'à une limite prescrite. Les valeurs des densités minimums correspondant à la partie du film contenant l'image sont déterminées. Les valeurs représentatives de l'image sont ensuite alignées avec le valeurs d'entrées des tables de consultation par un décalage relatif des valeurs de l'image et des valeurs des tables de telle sorte que les valeurs de densité minimum de l'image soient égales aux valeurs de densité minimum des tables de consultation. L'image dont on a mesuré la densité chromatique est ensuite traitée à l'aide des tables de consultation pour accroître sa plage linéaire.

Abstract: A method of controlling product quality in a conversion of reactor feed to an iron carbide-containing product in a fluidized bed reactor. A Mossbauer analysis is performed on product samples leaving the fluidized bed reactor, and a regression analysis is performed on the Mossbauer data. Depending upon the results of the regression analysis, process parameters are adjusted in order to obtain a product having a desired composition. Adjustments are made to the temperature and pressure in the fluidized bed reactor, rate of feed to the fluidized bed reactor, and the composition of the process gas which reacts with the reactor feed in the fluidized bed reactor, dependent upon the analysis results.
