Abstract: There is disclosed a linear block copolymer comprising at least one triblock I-B-I, wherein I is a block of at least one polymerized conjugated diene of at least five (5) carbon atoms, such as isoprene, and B is a block of a polymer of at least one conjugated diene, different from that used to polymerize the block I, of at least four (4) carbon atoms, such as 1,3-butadiene. The B block is selectively hydrogenated, while each of the I blocks is hydrogenated and therefore retains a sufficient amount of its original unsaturation to vulcanize the copolymer. There is also disclosed an alternative linear block copolymer containing at least one triblock of the first polymer block made from a minor proportion of at least one aryl-substituted olefin, such as styrene, and a major proportion of at least one conjugated diene used to polymerize the block I, the second middle polymer block of at least one diene used to polymerize the block B, and the third polymer block which is the same as the first polymer block. In this alternative copolymer, the middle block is also selectively hydrogenated, thereby leaving the terminal polymer blocks with a sufficient amount of their original unsaturation to vulcanize the copolymer. The polymers can be crosslinked or functionalized through the terminal blocks containing the vinyl unsaturation. There are also disclosed random linear and star-branched block and random copolymers made from the same monomers as the linear block copolymers. 
     Also disclosed are methods of producing the polymers and selectively hydrogenating the aforementioned polymerized dienes.

Abstract: This invention relates to a signal distributor formed in a small size without using microstrip lines. A twisted wire of insulated wires (6, 6A) is separated to the insulated wires (6, 6A), which are respectively wound at least one turn around the toroidal core (5) from mutually opposite directions, the ends (6-1, 6A-1) of the insulated wires are connected to the input terminal (1), while the insulated wire end (6-2) is connected to the output terminal (4), and the insulated wire end (6A-2) is connected to the output terminal 3. The three insulated wires (7, 7A, 7B) are twisted and wound at least one turn around the toroidal core (5), a group of the insulated wire ends (7-1, 7A-2, 7B-1) and a group of the insulated wire ends (7-2, 7A-1, 7B-2) are twisted once at outside of the toroidal core (5), the insulated wire end (7-1) is connected to the output terminal (3), the insulated wire end (7B-1) to the input terminal (2), the insulated wire end (7A-1) to the output terminal (4), and the insulated wire ends (7A-2, 7-2, 7B-2) to the earth conductor. By the above arrangement, when a signal is inputted to one of the input terminals (1, 2), signals of equiphase components are outputted at the output terminals (3, 4) and when a signal is inputted to the other of the input terminals (1, 2), signals of antiphase components are outputted at  the output terminals (3, 4). Thus, a signal distributor can be formed without using microstrip lines and consequently in a reduced size.

Abstract: A computer operating system manages events of interest to a plurality of event handlers within respective programs. The event handlers are arranged in a sequence for the purpose of receiving sequential notification of an occurrence of the event. When the event occurs, the first event handler in the sequence is notified, and it then handles the event. Then, the first event handler determines if the second event handler in the sequence should be notified of the event. If so, the second event handler in the sequence receives the event notification, handles the event, and then determines if the third event handler in the sequence should be notified. In this manner, the event notification can be propagated from event handler to event handler in the sequence, but any event handler in the sequence which receives the notification can block subsequent propagation of the event notification. This technique saves processing time in situations where some or all of the event handlers in the sequence (after the first event handler) may not benefit from the event notification; in such a case, the event notification is not propagated to them.

Abstract: Tone treatment given to callers by an originating switching system (10) during dialing may be customized in a call-processing arrangement (200) that uses stored definitions of syntax (320, 350) and grammar (400, 410) of the network numbering plan. The syntax definitions include definitions (312) of individual symbol strings and their associated tones (336), if any. Associations of tones with symbol strings are administratively reprogrammable to change the specified tone treatment. Following dialing and identification (340) of an individual symbol string, a caller is immediately fed back (906) the string's associated tone, if any. A caller is thus immediately advised during dialing of successful or unsuccessful input of a valid symbol string, and is selectively prompted for input of another string. Caller-perceivable feedback signals other than tones may be used with equal effect.

Abstract: A method for implementing transaction-consistent resource recovery from catastrophic media failures in a single pass over a recovery log archive while permitting most UNDO log records to be discarded during log archiving. The media recovery procedure is based on a pseudo-crash recovery technique that simulates a system crash at a selected time by writing pseudo-recovery records to the recovery log. Resource recovery is then performed by normal execution of the log archive records up to the most recent pseudo-crash followed by execution of the subsequent pseudo-recovery records. The recovery log record execution procedures are based on the ARIES recovery method. One embodiment of this invention assumes that the recovery log records can be selected for archiving on the basis of a combination of record type and transaction identifier.

Abstract: A system (Figure 10) for inserting code markers for observing indications (external to the microprocessor upon which the software operates) of the occurrence of an event in the execution of the software. Additional instructions or markers are added to the software to be debugged to produce simple, encoded, memory references to otherwise unused memory or I/O locations that will always be visible to a logic analyzer as bus cycles. Although the code markers cause a minimal intrusion in the underlying software, they make tracing events by a conventional logic analyzer much simpler and allow for performance evaluations in manners not heretofore possible. In particular, the inserted code markers provide a method of dynamically extracting information from a running host or real-time "black box" embedded system (902) under test using simple low intrusion print statements, encoded I/O writes on procedure entries and exits, and/or an interface to service calls and the like which writes out the passed parameters. Generally, the code markers are inserted at compile time or interactively during the debug session to make visible critical points in the code execution, such as function calls, task creation, semaphore operations and other resource usage so as to speed isolation of problems at test points during debugging. Performance analysis and event analysis use the code markers of the invention to cut through the ambiguities of microprocessor prefetch and cache operations. Because of these features, the invention is particularly advantageous for use by software design teams developing complex embedded host or real-time operating systems using multi-task operating systems and/or object oriented systems.
