Patent GB-0130218-D0 (GB)
Title: Optical rotation of microscopic particles
IPC: H05H3/04
Filed: 2001-12-18
Abstract: Apparatus for and a method of rotating microscopic objects uses a beam of electromagnetic radiation. A microscopic, non-circularly symmetric distribution of electro-magnetic radiation is projected on to a region containing an object to be rotated so as to cause photons in the beam to refract around the objects. Rotating means then rotate that distribution and so rotate the objects. The distribution may be formed on the interference pattern between a beam having a Laguerre-Gaussian wave fronts and either a plane wave or a further Laguerre-Gaussian beam of opposite helicity.

Patent GB-0513393-D0 (GB)
Title: Methods, apparatus and computer programs for differentiating between alias instances of a resource
IPC: H04L69/40
Filed: 2005-06-30
Abstract: To differentiate between alias instances of a resource, rank values are assigned to message queues or their respective queue managers to enable differentiation between a highest-ranked message storage location and its lower-ranked alias. This allows a message routing process to make an appropriate selection between a target message queue and an alias for the queue, avoiding the potential problem of messages being delayed by repeated passing between alias queues of gateway queue managers. The potential problem may arise where alias queues are provided for workload sharing and the routing process does not inherently differentiate between a target queue, an alias, and a backup. The solution is to define which queues can be selected on rank values assigned to the queues or their queue managers, and set selection preferences as priority attribute values assigned to the queues or queue managers.

Patent GB-0615584-D0 (GB)
Title: Data processing system
Filed: 2006-08-05
Abstract: A data processing system comprises a central processor with a plurality of peripherals hubs connected either directly or indirectly to it via a peripheral bus (such as the Universal Serial Bus, USB). Each peripheral hub can have a plurality of peripherals connected to it (such as a monitor, keyboard, camera, printer, mouse etc), including another peripheral hub. The central processor traverses the peripheral bus network topology and creates a set of clusters out of the attached peripherals. Broadly, the peripherals connected to each hub are grouped together (not including any hubs that may be present) into terminal clusters, but only if a specific peripheral is present. These terminal clusters consist of a specific set of "computing" components, such as a monitor, keyboard and mouse. The central processor manages at least one user session in relation to each of these terminal clusters. The user sessions are provided by one or more virtual machine sessions running on the central processor. If one of the "computing" peripherals is removed, the user session associated with that terminal cluster may be ended. At the very least, the clusters may need to be rearranged.

Patent IT-7927150-D0 (IT)
Inventor: MAKOSCH GUENTER
IPC: G01B11/30
Filed: 1979-11-09
Abstract: Two radiation components differing from each other with regard to their state of polarization or their wavelength are directed onto closely adjacent points of the object to be measured. The reflected components are recombined and are fed to a polarization- or wavelength-dependent phase shifter periodically shifting the phase positions of the two components by  lambda /2 against each other. A phase shift of one of the components caused by the object to be measured is fully compensated for by periodically shifting the phase position of the other component at particular points in time, which can be determined, for example, by means of a connected analyzer and a photodetector. The values of the control voltage effecting the periodical phase shift in the phase shifter are measured at those points in time at which the phase difference between the two components equals zero. These values are proportional to the difference in height between the points of incidence of the two radiation components on the object surface or the slope of the object surface.
