IPC: G05B19/418
Filed: 2006-09-05
Abstract: The network has a number of communication subscribers (6-8) formed as masters or as sensors and/or as actuators, where the subscribers are connected to a bus line (4) over a respective interface. The bus line exhibits a number of current limiting resistors (R310-R313) interconnected between two of the communication subscribers, where the resistors limit a bus residual current over the bus line in case of short-circuit. Zener diodes are connected with the bus line to limit bus failure voltage falling over the resistors in case of short-circuit.

Abstract: The invention concerns a method for replacing software of a stream processing system like a media gateway with redundancy comprising the steps of loading an upgrade (UG) of the software, or a part of the software, while the current release (CR) is running and integrating and activating the upgrade, such that the running upgrade takes over the functionality, where a redundancy sub-system for an operational sub-system (I1), which should be upgraded, is reconfigured to an independent sub-system (I2) and the upgrade (UG) is loaded on the independent system, while the operational sub-system (I1) remains operable with the current release (CR). Then operational context information is synchronized between the operable sub-system (I1) and the independent sub-system (I2) in order to synchronize the two running sub-systems, and after the synchronization, the running independent system (I2) takes over hitless (with stable bearer preservation) the functionality of the operational sub-system and becomes an operational sub-system running the upgrade (UG). Finally, the upgrade is loaded on the original operating sub-system (I1) that is reconfigured as a redundancy sub-system. 
     The invention also concerns a respective stream processing system and a computer software product.

Abstract: A laser processing method which can reduce the chipping generated when a plate-like object to be processed formed with a modified region is turned into small pieces in steps other than its dividing step. 
     In a part 50 extending along a line to cut in an object to be processed 1, laser light L is oscillated in a pulsing fashion in an intermediate portion 51 including an effective part 41, and is continuously oscillated in one end portion 52 and the other end portion 53 on both sides of the intermediate portion 51. Since the laser light intensity becomes lower in continuous oscillation than in pulse oscillation, modified regions 71, 72, 73 can be formed in the intermediate portion 51 but not in one end portion 52 and the other end portion 53. This keeps the modified regions 71, 72, 73 from reaching the outer face of the substrate 4, thus making it possible to prevent particles from occurring when forming the modified regions 71, 72, 73.
