Title: Load balancing in a sensor network by selecting a root node based on tree size
Inventor: KULKARNI PARAG GOPAL
IPC: H04L12/44
Filed: 2011-10-19
Abstract: Sensor devices in a network select an appropriate concentrator device or access point (root nodes 20, 30, 40) to connect to based on tree size, i.e. the number of sensor devices (or leaf nodes) associated with a given concentrator or access point, so as to balance the tree sizes. Control messages are forwarded from a subset of root nodes to the sensor devices, each message comprising a tree size value associated with a corresponding root node. Sensor devices then determine selection metrics based on the tree size values and send a control message to the selected root node. The selection metric may also be based on rank value, i.e. a nodes    position relative to other nodes. The invention utilises the Routing Protocol for LLNs (Low power and Lossy Networks) or    RPL    with root nodes communicating their tree size in DODAG (Destination Oriented Directed Acyclic Graph) Information Objects or    DIO    messages.

Title: Predicting and avoiding operand-store-compare hazards in out- of-order microprocessors
Inventor: JACOBI CHRISTIAN
IPC: G06F9/38
Filed: 2010-12-13
Abstract: A method and information processing system manage load and store operations executed out-of-order. At least one of a load instruction and a store instruction is executed. A determination is made that an operand store compare hazard has been encountered. An entry within an operand store compare hazard prediction table is created based on the determination. The entry includes at least an instruction address of the instruction that has been executed and a hazard indicating flag associated with the instruction. The hazard indicating flag indicates that the instruction has encountered the operand store compare hazard.

Title: Security system monitoring a cable associated with a railway line or perimeter fence
Inventor: ROBST TOM
IPC: G08B13/12
Filed: 2012-05-10
Abstract: A security system is provided comprising at least a linear sensor 106,108 and a controller 104 attached to the linear sensor. The controller is configured to detect a break in the linear sensor; determine the geographical position of the controller; and transmit a message including an indication of the geographical position of the controller if a break in the linear sensor is detected. The controller may further determine the length along the linear sensor at which the break has occurred.

Title: Pixel buffering utilising higher resolution and lower resolution buffers.
Inventor: BRASNETT PAUL
IPC: G06T1/60
Filed: 2012-09-05
Abstract: A method and system for providing image data to an image processing module. Image data is read from memory 300 into a down scaler 305 which down-scales the image data to a first resolution and stores it in a first buffer 310. A region of image data which the image processing module will request is predicted, and image data corresponding to at least part of the predicted region of image data is stored from memory into a second buffer 330 at a higher resolution than the first resolution. When a request for image data is received from the image processing module it is determined whether image data corresponding to the requested image data is in the second buffer. If it is in the second buffer, then image data is provided to the image processing module from the second buffer. If it is not in the second buffer, then image data from the first buffer is up-scaled 325 to provide a substitute for the requested image data at a resolution that at least matches the higher resolution. The up-scaled image data is then provided to the image processing module.

Title: Methods of clustering computational event logs
Inventor: UMANESAN GANESAN
IPC: G06F17/30
Filed: 2013-05-08
Abstract: Method of determining a metric distance in computational event messages 4, such as Syslog events, for clustering event log 2, e.g. error log. A first character of a first message and a second character of a second message are compared to a set of characters, for example hexadecimal characters. If both characters are comprised in the set, a predefined metric distance is output, e.g. zero. The method operates in a pseudo-metric space where MAC addresses, IP addresses, and process IDs which are unnecessary for clustering and have hexadecimal characters, do not affect the clustering of events. Also some misspelt words will not have metric distances. Also described are: a method of calculating distance between words in different event messages; and a method of defining an area (e.g. a metric ball) in a metric space for clustering event messages. Characters or words in different messages can be sequentially aligned for comparison.

Title: Steering and yaw control for speed mode, low speed and low friction terrain
Inventor: FAIRGRIEVE ANDREW
IPC: B60W10/20
Filed: 2013-06-07
Abstract: A method and system provide steering in a speed control mode, in low friction conditions, at low speed and in low range. The speed of individual vehicle wheels is repeatedly and automatically adjusted to ensure that the actual rate of turn of the vehicle approaches the theoretical rate of turn as demanded by the vehicle driver. It is noted that off-road cruise control has been proposed whereby a vehicle may maintain a pre-set speed over variable terrain. Such a system has the advantage that the vehicle driver, particularly a novice driver, can concentrate upon steering whilst allowing vehicle systems to automatically select a suitable transmission ratio and engine speed. Without the invention, the vehicle 11b may be prone to understeer and not following a theoretical vehicle path 13 associated with the steering wheel input of the driver.

Filed: 2014-06-18
Abstract: A joystick 12 that is mechanically linked to three separate spool valves 18, each spool valve operating a different function of the machine or vehicle that the joystick is operating. The joystick is capable of moving in 3 different axis, and each axis will actuate a different valve. The joystick is capable of performing both primary and secondary functions of the machine. That is both driving it forwards, and operating an arm, or a claw for grabbing objects.
