Abstract: A method and apparatus for implementing proportional sharing in a single processor
system and/or in a multi-processor system. The invention can also implement
proportional sharing in a system that executes multi-threaded computer programs.
The invention uses the metaphor of "tickets." Each process (106) in the system (100)
has a number of tickets and each ticket entitles the process (106) to use a processor
(102) for a period of a time quantum. The operating system (108) allocates the
processor(s) (102) first to the process (106) with the highest number of tickets. As
each process (106) (or thread (107)) finishes being executed for a predetermined
amount of time, the tickets of that process/thread are adjusted accordingly and a new
process (or thread) is chosen for execution. Tickets can be allocated to each
process in the system. Alternatively, tickets can be allocated to each process and
shared by all threads of the process. Alternatively, tickets can be allocated to a
group of processes and shared by all processes within the group.

Abstract: A method is disclosed which is capable of increasing a S/N
ratio without subjecting a sample to any treatment to thereby detect
hybridization with high sensitivity. A fragmentarily divided probe is
used which is prepared by dividing a single probe 12 into a plurality
of fragmentary probes 12a, 12b, and labeling the fragmentary probes
with different fluorescent materials 14a, 14b, respectively. When the
probe is hybridized with a sample 11, the fragmentary probes 12a,12b
reconstitute the single probe. An intermittent light beam is used as
excitation light 19. The fluorescent material 14a is excited therewith,
and fluorescence 18 emitted from the fluorescent material 14b through
multistep excitation is detected while irradiation with the excitation
light is intermitted.

Abstract: A replicated controller and a fault recovery method
therefor which can restore a faulty system to a normal state
without interrupting operation of an equipment, even in an
equipment controller performing processing with short
operating periods. 
     In a fault recovery method for a replicated controller,
control data is divided into a plurality of blocks on the basis
of dependency of the blocks, and a plurality of blocks are
transferred in a sequential order of superiority of the
dependency from the normally operating system to the faulty
system in a period over a plurality of operating periods. BY
this, even in an equipment controller performing processing at
a short operating period, the system, in which failure is caused,
can be restored into normal state without interrupting
operation of the equipment.

Abstract: Cette invention concerne des procédés de traitement du psoriasis qui impliquent l'induction d'une réponse immunitaire, chez une personne, contre un antigène exprimé de manière anormale dans des tissus psoriasiques, tel qu'un ganglioside. La réponse immunitaire anti-ganglioside est induite par l'administration d'un antigène tel qu'un ganglioside, une fraction anti-idiotype destinée à un ganglioside ou un polynucléotide codant une fraction anti-idiotype. Cette invention concerne également une stratégie permettant de mettre au point d'autres compositions contre le psoriasis. Les compositions induisent une réponse immunitaire dirigée contre un antigène cible présent sur les tissus psoriasiques, qui, à son tour, peut être détectée à l'aide d'un anticorps purifié par affinité obtenu à partir du sérum du patient traité. La présence de la réponse immunitaire corrèle positivement le régulation ou la disparition des symptômes psoriasiques.
