Abstract: The present hostler control of a computer control train brake system combines the computer control of the train and locomotive brake system with a manual control during a hostler mode to provide soft and safe operation of the vehicle. Interlocks provide efficient and safe transferring of the controls between the computer control brake system and the manual hostler control portion.  The computer control train brake system includes an electropneumatic brake controller which automatically applies the independent brake once the hostler lead mode is determined.  Next, the brake controller charges the brake pipe to release the train brakes.  Control of the independent brake is transferred to a pneumatic independent brake control valve of the hostler stand after the brake pipe has been charged sufficiently to fully release the train brakes.  The brake pipe is charged or the train brakes are released only after the independent brake application has reached a predetermined value.  The computer controls the locomotive brakes in response to the pressure of the independent brake pipe and brake pipe.  When the operator deactivates the hostler control, brake control is automatically transferred back to the computer control.

Abstract: The invention concerns a method of sorting diamond-containing particles on-line from gangue particles. In the method, the particles (12) are subject ed to irradiation by an X-ray or thermal neutron beam (20) from a source (18). A detector (22), arranged at a predetermined orientation to the incident beam (20), detects radiation which is elastically scattered by each particle. A diffraction spot pattern is then derived from the detected radiation and is compared, by a computer (24), with a diffraction spot pattern for diamond. A determination is made whether there is correlation between the patter ns which is indicative of the presence, in the particle, of diamond. When such correlation exists, the relevant particles are separated from the other particles.

Title: Method and apparatus for striping packets over parallel communication l inks
Inventor: PARTRIDGE CRAIG
IPC: H04L12/56
Filed: 1999-10-20
Granted: 2009-09-08
Abstract: A system for performing packet based data communications over a parallel set of sublinks is provided. A transmitter unit separates the sublinks into an available set of sublinks and a busy set of sublinks. This transmitter avoids processing delays by utilizing sublinks in the available sublink set and not waiting for sublinks in the busy sublink set to be released. To receive the packets, a receiver unit utilizes a sequence number associated with each packet. Accordingly, the receiver extracts the one or more packets of data received in parallel over the set of sublinks in sequential order. A packet window buffer is used to store packets in sequence if they are initially received out of order. The receiver utilizes a sliding window to provide packets in continuous sequential order and transmits the packets serially over a single communication link.
