Title: Video communication between client transmitters and client receivers by archiving a video message in video server
Inventor: CARAS JONATHAN
IPC: H04L12/58
Filed: 2012-12-28
Abstract: A client transmitter 100T transmits or records a video message 250 for display or consumption on a client recipient 100R by initially transmitting the video message to a video server 206a which then archives or saves the video message.

Title: Golf club with a cushion made of viscoelastic material
Inventor: LEATT CHRISTOPHER JAMES
IPC: A63B53/04
Filed: 2011-09-22
Abstract: A golf club (10) is configured to dissipate kinetic energy during the impact when striking the golf ball, thereby to reduce the quantum of kinetic energy transferred from the golf club (10) to the ball and reducing the distance that the ball travels. The reduction in ball travel encourages the player to use more concentric muscle action at the moment of impact and thus to have better control over the impact. The golf club (10) includes a shaft (18) and a head (14) and the head (14) comprises a support structure (22) that is connected to the shaft (18), and an impact absorbent structure (16) that defines a face (46) of the golf club (10). The impact absorbent structure (16) includes a cushion (48), disposed between the face (46) and the support structure (22) and the cushion (48) is made of a shear thickening material.

Title: Data Processing system and method for data processing in a multiple processor system
Inventor: JACOBI CHRISTIAN
IPC: G06F12/08
Filed: 2013-12-03
Abstract: Disclosed is a multi-processor system 1 with a multi-level cache L1, L2, L3, L4 structure between the processors 10, 20, 30 and the main memory 60. The memories of at least one of the cache levels is shared between the processors. A page mover 50 is positioned closer to the main memory and is connected to the cache memories of the shared cache level, to the main memory and to the processors. In response to a request from a processor the page mover fetches data of a storage area line-wise from one of the shared cache memories or the main memory, while maintaining cache memory access coherency. The page mover has a data processing engine that performs aggregation and filtering of the fetched data. The page mover moves processed data to the cache memories, the main memory or the requesting processor. The data processing engine may have a filter engine that filters data by comparing all elements of a fetched line from a source address of a fetched line from a source address of the shared cache level or main memory with filter arguments to create a bitmask buffer of the target storage area.
