Abstract: Un gestionnaire de ressources et de partition comporte un mécanisme de marche/arrêt qui est utilisé pour assurer la mise hors circuit d'une ressource matérielle lors du retrait de contrôle de la ressource d'une partition logique, et pour assurer la mise en marche de la ressource matérielle lors du transfert du contrôle de la ressource matérielle à une partition logique. En variante, le gestionnaire de ressource et de partition peut simplement mettre la ressource matérielle dans un état de remise en marche lors du transfert de la ressource matérielle à une partition logique. Ainsi, lors de sa mise à disponibilité à une partition, la ressource matérielle se trouve dans un état de remise en marche, qui est l'état typiquement prévue par la partition logique.

Abstract: L'invention concerne une capsule à vis métallique inviolable (1) formée de manière qu'une bande à vis inviolable (15) puisse conserver sa forme annulaire au niveau du goulot d'une bouteille. Le côté supérieur d'un plan de cisaillement à entailles horizontales (16) est décalé en direction radiale à l'intérieur de la capsule de manière à former une charnière (17) sur le côté supérieur du plan de cisaillement, et le diamètre intérieur de la partie d'extrémité supérieure de la bande à vis inviolable (15) est augmenté par rapport au diamètre extérieur maximal de la partie annulaire bombée (22) du goulot de la bouteille, afin d'y fixer la bande à vis inviolable (15). On peut ainsi éviter que les restes de la charnière (17) restent sur la bande à vis inviolable (15) séparée de la capsule (1), et la formation d'un vide entre la capsule (1) et la bande à vis inviolable (15) permet d'identifier immédiatement la non fermeture de la bouteille lorsque la bouteille est refermée au moyen de la capsule.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un procédé d'examen d'une région réservoir dans une formation souterraine par relevé sismique périodique. La formation souterraine considérée comprend une autre région de formation adjacente de la région réservoir. Le procédé comporte plusieurs opérations. On commence par obtenir des données de relevé sismique périodique comportant des données sismiques concernant la formation souterraine en un premier instant et en un instant ultérieur. On traite les données sismiques de façon à obtenir une représentation sismique de modification affectant un paramètre sismique, lié à la contrainte, défini de l'autre région de la formation. Une interprétation de la représentation sismique du changement affectant le paramètre sismique dans l'autre région de formation permet alors de faire apparaître une indication concernant un changement de la distribution de la contrainte dans l'autre région de la formation. La dernière opération consiste en une déduction d'une propriété de la région réservoir à partir de la modification de la distribution des contraintes dans l'autre région de la formation.

Abstract: A network interface controller implementation that performs direct data placement to memory where all segments of a particular connection are aligned, i.e. cuts-through without accessing reassembly buffers (i.e., a "Fast" connection type), or if all segments are non~aligned moves data through reassembly buffers (i.e., a "Slow" connection type). The type of connection can change from Fast to Slow and back. The implementation preferably conducts CRC validation for a majority of inbound DDP segments in the Fast connection before sending a TCP acknowledgement confirming segment reception. The method of computing a CRC value according to the present invention assumes that each TCP segment starts with an aligned DDP segment and that the first two bytes of a TCP payload is an MPA length field of an MPA frame.
