Title: System and method for switching-over between heating and cooling modes
Inventor: CHAPMAN JOHN GILMAN JR
IPC: F24F11/02
Filed: 2002-04-19
Granted: 2006-07-04
Abstract: A heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) device (104) which includes both heating and cooling operating modes provides an easy-to-use interface (110) for selecting the operating parameters of the device (104). The interface (110) allows the input of a setpoint temperature at which the HVAC device (104) conditions the ambient temperature of a space (102). A mode switch-over algorithm (200) uses the setpoint temperature, the sensed temperature from the conditioned space, and prestored threshold values that depend on the device's operating capacities, to determine when to change the device between heating and cooling modes. Also, within each of the respective modes, a heating (300) or cooling (400) algorithm controls the engaging and disengaging of the heating and cooling elements of the device (104) to maintain the temperature of the conditioned space (102) within a desired comfort zone.

Abstract: This invention provides a clutch engagement detecting apparatus, which can accurately detect the state of engagement of a clutch using a helical spline engagement structure, and a single-shaft combined plant having it, and is constructed as follows: If the difference between the detected value of the rotational speed of a gas turbine and the detected value of the rotational speed of a steam turbine is not more than a detection error by the time a predetermined time elapses after load is charged into the steam turbine, it is determined that the clutch is engaged.  If the detected value of the rotational speed of the steam turbine exceeds the detected value of the rotational speed of the gas turbine by a predetermined rotational speed a or more, or if the detected value of the rotational speed of the steam turbine falls short of the detected value of the rotational speed of the gas turbine by a predetermined rotational speed P or more after detection of clutch engagement, it is determined that the clutch is abnormal.  Alternatively, steam turbine rotation pulses are counted for each constant number of gas turbine rotation pulses, and subtraction or addition is done based on the counted value to obtain the relative rotation angle between the steam turbine and the gas turbine, thereby detecting clutch engagement.

Title: Method and apparatus for transferring data from the cache of one node to the cache of another node
Inventor: BAMFORD ROGER J
IPC: G06F11/14
Filed: 1999-02-12
Granted: 2006-04-11
Abstract: A method and apparatus are provided for transferring a resource from the cache of one database server to the cache of another database server without first writing the resource to disk. When a database server (Requestor) desires to modify a resource, the Requestor asks for the current version of the resource. The database server that has the current version (Holder) directly ships the current version to the Requestor. Upon shipping the version, the Holder loses permission to modify the resource, but continues to retain the resource in memory. When the retained version of the resource, or a later version thereof, is written to disk, the Holder can discard the retained version of the resource. Otherwise, the Holder does not discard the retained version. Using this technique, single-server failures are recovered without having to merge the recovery logs of the various database servers that had access to resource.

Abstract: A monitor system capable of monitoring a plurality of vehicles (1) includes a vibration detection unit (15) for detecting vibration of each vehicle (1), a detection time identification unit (20b) for identifying the time when the vibration is detected by the vibration detection unit of each vehicle (1), and an abnormality judgment unit (20a) used when vibration is detected by the vibration detection unit (15) of any vehicle (1) for judging whether the vibration is attributed to robbery backup action performed to the vehicle (1) or the environment where the vehicle is placed. The abnormality judgment unit (20a) performs judgment according to the detection result of the vibration detection unit (15) of each vehicle (1) and specification results by the detection time identification unit (20b). This reduces the possibility of erroneous determination that the vibration not attributed to robbery backup action is a vibration attributed to robbery backup action.

Abstract: A reporting system for collecting, communicating and analyzing information from a plurality of best monitoring locations is disclosed. The monitored locations include activity sensing pest devices (11). These devices can include traps and/or passive and active monitoring devices not having a trapping or killing functionality. While traps may constitute the majority of activity sensing pest devices in a given pest control program, devices which only monitor pest activity may be preferred in some locations and applications. The system includes automatic reporting from the plurality of activity sensing pest devices and also includes physical inspection data. Preferably an automatic real-time communication system is used, with the preferred communication system being a radio-frequency (RF) or other over-the-air system (22). However, hardwired systems (21), use of a personal digital assistant (PDA) (21) as an interim data carrier, and other technologies may also be employed. Manual input means (13) for providing the additional physical inspection data on the activity sensing pest device parameters and a computer based report generation means (of the resulting combined data) provide for a robust and efficient pest monitoring and/or trapping tool.

Granted: 2006-06-13
Abstract: New systems and methods for wavelength locking for a class of multi-wavelength laser sources (MWLS) are provided. In this type of MWLS, the set of output wavelength channels are produced from a limited number of initial laser sources, such as a single laser or dual laser. In this invention, the initial lasers are locked based on the wavelengths of the outer channels in the set of output channels to provide tighter channel locking than that of a single laser source. This is mainly possible since the error in channel spacing caused by channel wavelength offset of the seed lasers is amplified by channel multiplication done in MWLS. This provides better resolution than applying wavelength locking to the seed lasers.
