Abstract: The present invention provides a method, for regulating the flow of a molten steel within a mold by taking advantage of a direct current magnetic field, comprising the step of carrying out continuous casting while regulating the flow of a molten steel, delivered through a nozzle, by applying a direct current magnetic field having a substantially uniform magnetic flux distribution over the whole width direction of the mold, characterized in that the flow velocity of a meniscus on the surface of the molten steel within the mold is regulated in a range of from 0.20 to 0.40 m/sec by regulating the molten steel delivery angle of the nozzle, the position of the magnetic field, and the magnetic flux density. When the flow velocity of the meniscus is greatly increased, a stream of the molten steel delivered through the nozzle is allowed to collide directly with a short-side wall of the mold and, thereafter, the flow velocity is regulated according to the following equation (1), while, when the flow velocity of the meniscus is increased or decreased, a stream of the molten steel delivered through the nozzle is allowed to traverse a magnetic filed zone and then to collide with a short-side wall of the mold and, thereafter, the flow velocity is regulated according to the following equation (2) V p/V o = 1 + .alpha.1{1-exp(-.beta.1.H2)}      ... (1) V p/V o = 1 + .alpha.2{sin(.beta.2.H)exp(-r.H)} ... (2) wherein H = 185.8.B2.D.T/(D+T)V.

Title: Flexible multi-platform partitioning for computer applications
Inventor: BUTTERWORTH PAUL
IPC: G06F15/177
Filed: 1994-08-03
Granted: 2000-06-27
Abstract: A method of partitioning an application program by defining an application program for execution on at least two interconnected computers (7), selected from at least two classes of computers (9) without considering what specific machine environment will be used at run time. Partitioning includes defining two or more objects as components of the application program (6B), where a first object is capable of execution on one class of computers and a second object is capable of execution on a second class of computers. Once the objects are defined, the method includes selecting an environment for the application program (11), and partitioning the application program by selecting each object to execute on the computer of the corresponding class. A system using the method can generate a default partitioning scheme to partition the program as a series of partitions, each assigned to available computing resources. The original partitioning can be modified automatically or by a user.

Abstract: In a DS-CDMA receiver, successively time shifted replicas of a despreading sequence are used to detect correlations with a received chip sequence and resulting correlation sequences are stored in a memory. A correlation sequence having a maximum peak and correlation sequences having side peaks inherently associated with the maximum peak are detected in the memory and all of the detected correlation sequences are removed from the memory. Following this removal, a correlation sequence having a maximum peak is detected from the remaining correlation sequences and the timing of the correlation sequence is determined. A despreading sequence which is delayed in accordance with the determined timing is produced and the chip sequence is despread with the delayed despreading sequence to produce a diversity branch signal.

Abstract: Les pages de données (305, 310, 315, 320, 325, 330, 335) d'un guide interactif de programmes (IPG) pour la télévision sont transmises selon une fonction de lecture aléatoire qui permet à différents téléviseurs de récupérer certains segments des pages de données en fonction du jour et de l'heure des programmes qu'un téléspectateur souhaite regarder. Une page de données, qui correspond à une image plein écran, est divisée en segments (200) et récupérée par les récepteurs au fil du temps. Les segments sont mélangés pour assurer une séparation optimale dans le flux de données. La séparation optimale correspond à la taille de la mémoire tampon d'entrée du récepteur et de la vitesse de traitement. Les pages peuvent être disposées de manière séquentielle (Fig. 3), ou avec les pages paires séparées des pages impaires (Fig. 5). Les pages sont divisées en un certain nombre de sous-ensembles (640, 680), et, dans les pages de chaque sous-ensemble, les segments sont mélangés selon une fonction aléatoire parfaite pour que les paires de segments adjacents respectifs soient disposées dans un ordre qui maximise un minimum de leur distance inter-segment après mélange. La distance inter-segment minimale de tous les sous-ensembles est utilisée pour déterminer une heure d'arrivée d'inter-segments caractéristique, qui doit être assez importante pour correspondre aux capacités de traitement du récepteur. La taille de la mémoire tampon d'entrée et de la vitesse de traitement des récepteurs requises sont réduites, mais la vitesse d'acquisition de page de données est augmentée pour tous les téléspectateurs.
