Abstract: Described are a system and method for managing runtime data in a computer network including servers in a server farm. One of the servers is designated as a first collector point for collecting a first type of data. A first zone including a subset of the servers is defined. The subset includes the first collector point. A first type of data is directed to the first collector point for storage. A second collector point collects a second type of data. In one embodiment, at least two servers in the server farm are designated as collector points for collecting data of the first type. A first subset of the servers are assigned to transmit data of the first type to at least one of the collector points. A second subset of the servers are assigned to transmit data of the first type to another of the collector points.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for coating basic particle compounds with salt-forming acidic coating substances. Said method enables an especially homogeneous and thick coating to be created. The compound is suspended in a solution of the coating substance in a non-aqueous solvent in which the acidic coating substance dissolves well, but in which the alkaline salt thereof dissolves little. After a certain action time, said compound is removed. A peroxo compound, especially sodium percarbonate, is preferably used as the particle compound, and a film forming polymer which has free carboxyl groups and a softening temperature above 40  DEG C is preferably used as the coating substance. An organic liquid solvent boiling below 150  DEG C under normal pressure, preferably a monovalent alcohol comprising 1-4 C atoms, is suitable as the non-aqueous solvent.

Abstract: A low tire pressure monitoring device that is affixed to a tire valve stem and methods of using the same. The monitoring device comprises a housing having a counter-pressure chamber, a main pressure chamber, and a flexible membrane that separates the two chambers. The monitoring device is calibrated by trapping the tire's initial air pressure in the counter-pressure chamber. The air pressure within the main pressure chamber is equivalent to the air pressure within the tire. Over the course of time, the air pressure within the tire and concomitantly the air pressure within the main pressure chamber decreases. When the pressure in the counter-pressure is greater than the pressure within the main pressure chamber, the flexible membrane touches and completes an electrical circuit and a warning signal is emitted.

Abstract: A method is provided for designing deformations that will achieve an optimum reduction in vibration related noise in an exhaust system component. The method comprises defining an initial shape for an exhaust system component based on available space and exhaust flow characteristics. The shape is converted to a mesh having a plurality of interconnected grids. The mesh then is deformed to define an optimal theoretical configuration for the exhaust system component that will eliminate at least selected natural frequencies. The resulting shape then is converted to a plurality of small flat surfaces that intersect, and a point cloud is created from the array of small flat intersecting surfaces of the optimal theoretical exhaust system component. The point cloud is employed to smooth out intersecting surfaces and to achieve an optimal manufacturable configuration for the exhaust system component. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A navigation system includes a navigation-related information server and one or more customer-interface servers. Each customer-interface server receives requests for navigation-related information from end users who have end user computing platforms. The end users send their requests for navigation-related information from end user computing platforms over a data network to the customer-interface servers. In order to respond to the end users, the customer-interface servers request language and format-independent navigation-related information from the navigation-related information server. The navigation-related information server receives the requests from the customer-interface servers. To response to each request for navigation-related information, the navigation-related information server uses one or more geographic databases to formulate language- and format-independent data structures. These language- and format-independent data structures are sent to the customer-interface servers. The customer-interface servers receive the language- and format-independent responses from the navigation-related information server, and formulate language- and format-specific responses that are sent to the end users. In one embodiment, the language and format-independent responses provided by the navigation-related information server are in XML format. The customer-interface servers use XML style sheets to formulate language and format-specific instructions that are sent to the end users. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A reactor (1) comprising a shell (2) having a first inlet (3) and outlet (4) and a second inlet (5) and outlet (6). The shell (2) is divided into first and second non-communication volumes (7, 8) by way of a first tube plate (9) which carries a number of tubular elongate pockets (10). The pockets (10) extend generally transversely from the first tube plate (9) into the first volume (7), and the first inlet and outlet (3, 4) are arranged so as to define a flow path through the first volume (7) from the first inlet (3) to the first outlet (4) by way of external surfaces of the pockets (10). A second tube plate (11) extends across the shell (2) in the second volume (8), and supports a number of tubular elongate conduits (12) corresponding to the number of pockets (10). The conduits (12) extends from the second tube plate (11), across the second volume (8) and into the pockets (10). The conduits (12) are opened-ended and extend almost, but not quite, to the ends of the pockets (10). The second inlet and outlet (5, 6) are arranged so as to define a flowpath through the second volume (8) from the second inlet (5), along outer surfaces of the conduits (12) and into the pockets (10) towards the ends of the pockets, and then into the conduits (12), passing along inside the conduits (12) towards the second tone plate (11) and thence to the second outlet (6). Combustion of a combustible mixture in the flowpath through the second volume (8) generates heat which is available for an exothermic reaction taking place in the flowpath through the first volume (7).

Abstract: Cette invention se rapporte à un procédé de calibrage d'un système de localisation sans fil (WLS) afin que ce système puisse effectuer des mesures différentielles extrêmement précises telles que la différence entre les temps d'arrivée (TDOA) et la différence entre les fréquences d'arrivée (FDOA). Ce calibrage est effectué par la transmission d'un signal depuis un emplacement inconnu et par la mesure, au niveau de chacun des deux récepteurs, du paramètre à calibrer depuis cette partie du signal reçu réfléchi ou réfracté depuis un objet au niveau d'un emplacement connu dans la zone. Une erreur de mesure différentielle est déterminée grâce à la comparaison de la différence prévue dans les mesures du paramètre avec la différence réelle dans les mesures du paramètre. La différence prévue est connue, a priori, en fonction des emplacements des récepteurs et de l'emplacement de l'objet.
