Granted: 2016-05-03
Abstract: The present invention defines a new protocol for communicating with an offload engine that provides Transmission Control Protocol ("TCP") termination over a Fibre Channel ("FC") fabric. The offload engine terminates all protocols up to and including TCP and performs the processing associated with those layers.  The offload protocol guarantees delivery and is encapsulated within FCP-formatted frames. Thus, the TCP streams are reliably passed to the host.  Additionally, using this scheme, the offload engine can provide parsing of the TCP stream to further assist the host. The present invention also provides network devices (and components thereof) that are configured to perform the foregoing methods. The invention further defines how network attached storage ("NAS") protocol data units ("PDUs") are parsed and delivered.

Title: Forming sieve for the wet end section of a paper machine
Inventor: PITZLER JOACHIM
IPC: D06C15/00
Filed: 2005-05-03
Granted: 2012-08-14
Abstract: A sieve for the wet-end section of a paper machine is described, in which the sieve has been compressed by at least one of increased temperature, pressure and/or moisture.  In an embodiment, one or more of the thread inflection shape, the width of the thread floats and knuckles, the height of the thread floats and knuckles, the degree of ellipticity of the threads, the total contact area of the sieve and the void size lying between the threads is varied cross each point of the sieve's width. Such a treatment leads to a sieve which has at least one side wherein the thread floats and knuckles are reshaped and the sieve presents at least one substantially flatter surface for the production of paper. Advantageously, this process does not cause any physical damage to the surface of the sieve, as prior techniques of abrasively polishing the surface do.
