Patent EP-1039712-A2 (EP)
Inventor: YOSHIE KAZUAKI
IPC: H04L27/227
Filed: 2000-03-27
Abstract: When it is detected that a carrier reproduction in a
demodulator (6) loop is locked and that frame synchronization
cannot be established in data from the demodulator (6), a
detection signal σ representing occurrence of a pseudo locked
state is output. In accordance with the detection signal c,
the timer (22) is activated to count up. When the timer (22)
counts a predetermined value, an address counter (23) is made
to count up, and correction data in accordance with an address
signal is read from a correction data memory (24). The
correction data is added up with channel selection data and is
input to a programmable divider (15) where a local oscillation
frequency is subjected to fine adjustment. The address signal
remains updated until the pseudo locked state is released.

Inventor: BARNETT BARRY STANLEY
IPC: G06F13/00
Filed: 2000-12-22
Abstract: A method and system for problem determination and fault isolation in
a storage area network (SAN) is provided. A complex configuration of
multi-vendor host systems, FC switches, and storage peripherals are
connected in a SAN via a communications architecture (CA). A
communications architecture element (CAE) is a network-connected device
that has successfully registered with a communications architecture manager
(CAM) on a host computer via a network service protocol, and the CAM
contains problem determination (PD) functionality for the SAN and maintains
a SAN PD information table (SPDIT). The CA comprises all network-connected
elements capable of communicating information stored in the SPDIT. The CAM
uses a SAN topology map and the SPDIT are used to create a SAN diagnostic
table (SDT). A failing component in a particular device may generate
errors that cause devices along the same network connection path to
generate errors. As the CAM receives error packets or error messages, the
errors are stored in the SDT, and each error is analyzed by temporally and
spatially comparing the error with other errors in the SDT. If a CAE is
determined to be a candidate for generating the error, then the CAE is
reported for replacement if possible.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé de traitement d'un composant de paliers à éléments roulants par abrasion à particules dures afin d'améliorer la topographie superficielle du composant. L'abrasion à particules dures consiste à prendre le composant de roulement et à l'immerger dans un récipient contenant des particules dures, de préférence de l'alumine, puis à agiter le composant et/ou les particules dures afin de produire un mouvement relatif. Ce traitement dure, de préférence, de 10 minutes à 1 heure. Pour obtenir ce mouvement relatif on fait tourner le composant dans un premier sens et le récipient en sens inverse. Ce procédé permet l'amélioration de la tolérance du fini superficiel passant d'environ 0.13 νm à environ 0.07 νm. La résistance à la contrainte en compression de la surface du composant peut être également améliorée, et passer, en principe, de 200 MPa à 500 MPa. La résistance à la fatigue du contact de roulement du composant est également être améliorée.

Title: Testing system and method for testing an object
Inventor: PLOPPA CHRISTIAN
IPC: G09F3/00
Filed: 2000-09-23
Abstract: The invention relates to a testing system which can be used to test whether an object which is composed of at least one part is of a given source of origin. The object is provided with at least one marking which can be identified by an identification system. Once the identification system has identified the marking, said marking is compared with the characteristics which individualise the source of origin of the object. The object can be assigned a first random marking, and thereafter, at least one additional marking derived from a series of continuous markings. The markings can be spatially allocated in relation to each other in a successive and predetermined manner. The allocation of markings can vary according to a predetermined pattern. The random marking can be generated by a random generator. In a method for testing for a given source of origin of an object composed of several parts, each part is given a marking different from those of the others. The various markings have a known dependency relationship in respect to one another, for which each object can be tested.

Abstract: The immediate grant bus arbiter (300) of this invention is a
part in the implementation of a multiple transaction bus system. A
bus bridge provides a means to connect two separate busses together
and secure data integrity. The bus bridge is defined with clear
master-slave protocol. The bus bridge normally involves the use of
two arbiters. The arbiter on the primary bus needs to operate
differently from the arbiter on the secondary bus due to real
system time constraints. This invention defines a bus arbiter
(300) that allows for a dominant bus master (351) to receive an
immediate grant of control on the bus. This immediate grant bus
arbiter (300) never relinquishes the bus if another lower priority
master (352, 535, 534) makes a bus request. This makes predictable
real time data transfer possible.

Abstract: A method for fabricating a mold tool for molding optical elements
is taught which comprises heating a mold tool blank made from a vitreous
material to a temperature above the glass transition temperature of the vitreous
material; generating an axial viscosity gradient in the mold tool blank; pressing a
punch into an optical quality mold surface of the mold tool blank, the punch
including a pressing surface with a predetermined geometry for forming an optical
feature; cooling the mold tool blank to a temperature below the glass transition
temperature of the material; and removing the punch from the mold tool blank
thereby creating the optical feature in the optical quality mold surface. The axial
viscosity gradient is achieved by creating an axial thermal gradient. Multiple
optical features can be formed in the mold surface of the blank using a single
punch such that the pressing, cooling and removing steps are repeated with the
punch or the blank being translated to a different position between the last
removing step and the next pressing step. In such manner, a high temperature
glass mold tool can be formed which can be used to mold glass optical elements
either individually or in arrays.

Abstract: In conventional ovens the heating elements are controlled by a thermostat which
cycles the temperature between a minimum and maximum cavity temperature. The
cycling is constant over the whole cooking time. According to the invention the
energy supply is controlled by the obtaining of a stable cycling, subsequent to which
the temperature drops a predetermined amount, followed by renewed feeding of
energy until stable conditions again prevail, and the process repeats itself. This type
of control permits considerable energy savings.
