Abstract: Methods and apparatus are disclosed for realizing an integrated cache unit which may be flexibly used for cache system design. The preferred embodiment of the invention comprises both a cache memory and a cache controller on a single chip. In accordance with an alternative embodiment of the invention, the cache memory may be externally located. Flexible cache system design is achieved by the specification of desired cache features through the setting of appropriate cache option bits. The disclosed methods and apparatus support this user oriented approach to flexible system design. The actual setting of option bits may be peformed under software control and allows a high performance cache system to be designed with few parts, at low cost and with the ability to perform with high efficiency.

Abstract: Data compression and decompression utilising eg the Ziv-Lempel algorithm is simplified by utilising a tree structure for the dictionary in which alternative symbols at a given position in a symbol sequence (a,b,c) are linked by linking pointers R of a first type and successive symbols (ab,bc,ca,aba,abb,abc) are linked by linking pointers D of a second type. For example the sequence ab may continue with any one of the symbols a,b and c grouped together by R pointers in a list below the final symbol of the sequence ab. Each symbol is defined by an associated pair of D and R pointers, in conjunction with a parent pointer P which identifies its parent. Symbols having no D pointers extending therefrom are pruned from the tree and transferred to a free list as shown in Figure 8(b).

Filed: 1989-02-02
Granted: 1993-08-11
Abstract: The invention makes it possible to improve the spheroidising, granulometry and purification of processed powders. 
<??>It consists, in a projection enclosure (2), of a passage of the powder to be processed in a plasma coming from a projection gun (4) and capable of being reactive in order to subject it to a very sharp and sudden increase in temperature, causing a state of non-equilibrium in the particles. This state being immediately followed by a passage through a cooling cone produced by cryogenic atomising nozzles (6) in order to impart an instant tempering to the powder particles, while the particles are still in a non-equilibrium state. A phase for collecting particles according to the various sizes can be provided by means of collecting containers (16, 18) and a cyclone separator (12). 
<??>Application to the improvement of metal and ceramic powders.

Abstract: A method of coating metallic pipe is disclosed. The method comprises heating the pipe to a temperature of at least 200°C and applying an epoxy resin composition having a thickness of at least 300 microns to the outer surface of the heated pipe. Before the epoxy resin composition has completely cured, but preferably after it has gelled, a coating of a modified polyolefin is applied in a thickness of at least 300 microns. The modified polyolefin is a homopolymer of copolymer of hydrocarbon alpha-olefins having 2-10 carbon atoms that has been modified by grafting with ethylenically unsaturated organic carboxylic acid or anhydride. The resultant coating is resistant to impact damage and cathodic disbondment. The coated pipe may be used in buried pipelines in the petroleum industry.

Abstract: An electronically controlled syringe system for connection to a balloon catheter or other balloon-type member and for automatically monitoring, displaying and recording inflation data when the syringe system is used to inflate the balloon catheter or other balloon-type member. A syringe having a barrel and a syringe plunger is selectively operable to increase fluid pressure applied to the balloon catheter or other balloon member by sliding the plunger further into the barrel. Positive pressure applied to the balloon catheter or member can be released by withdrawing the syringe plunger toward the rear of the barrel. A piezoresistive semiconductor transducer housed on the barrel of the syringe senses positive fluid pressure applied by the syringe. The electric signal output by the transducer is input to a controller where the signal is digitally processed so as to derive and record therefrom electronic data representing the magnitude of applied fluid pressure, and so as also to derive the length of time that positive fluid pressure is applied and the electronic data representing this information is automatically displayed and recorded. The controller is also programmable to permit optional selection and input of various control parameters, such as a maximum positive inflation pressure that is to be applied, maximum duration for applying positive inflation pressure, initialization of the date and time of an inflation procedure and/or retrieving and displaying inflation data previously recorded for any prior inflation of the balloon catheter or other balloon member.
