Patent EP-1198098-A3 (EP)
Inventor: MINKENBERG CYRIEL
IPC: H04L12/54
Filed: 2001-09-08
Abstract: The invention proposes a switching arrangement for transporting data packets which
comprise a data packet destination information and a payload, to one or more output ports.
The switching device is able to route the arriving data packets according to the data packet
destination information, to at least one dedicated of the output ports. It comprises at each
input port an input buffer with at least as many single input queues as there are output ports,
and an input controller for each input port, serving for controlling the order of multiplexing
the data packets from the input queues of the corresponding input buffer to the switching
device. The total of input ports is divided up into several subsets of input ports. Each subset
in the switching device has its separate output buffer for storing at addresses therein at least
the payload of each data packet arriving at the input port. At least one set of as many output
queues as the switching arrangement has output ports are arranged. In these output queues
at least the address of each payload stored in the output buffer is stored, sorted according to
the data packet destination information. The stored payload is then deliverable to its
dedicated at least one output port under use of the stored addresses.

Abstract: A nasal dilator 10 that prevents the outer wall tissue 60, 62 of the nasal passages 54, 56 of the nose 12 from drawing in during breathing comprises a truss member 16. The truss member 16 includes flexible strip of material 18 having a first end region 20, a second end region 22 and an intermediate segment 24. The first and second end regions 20, 22 are adapted to engage the outer wall tissue 60, 62 of first and second nasal passages 54, 56 of the nose 12. The truss member 16 further includes resilient bands 30a, 30b secured to the strip of material 18. The resiliency of the bands 30a, 30b acts to stabilise the outer wall tissue 60, 62 and thereby prevents the outer wall tissue 60, 62 of the nasal passages 54, 56 from drawing in during breathing. The first and second end regions 20, 22 are secured to the outer wall tissue 60, 62 by an adhesive layer whose effect is less at the intermediate segment 24.

Abstract: A microlaser assembly (10) is provided that includes a microresonator, such
as a side pumped microresonator (11) having an active gain medium (12) and a
passive Q-switch (14), a pump source (28) for inducing resonation of the

components (36), such as one or more non-linear crystals, amplifiers, oscillators or
active gain mediums, for modifying the laser signals emitted by the microlaser and
a beam steering element (50) for aligning the laser signals emitted by the
microresonator (11) with the electro-optic components (36). The beam steering
element (50) is preferably controllably adjustable so as to precisely align the laser
signals emitted by the microresonator (11) with an electro-optic component (36).
In order to provide more general alignment, the microlaser assembly (10) can also
include a mechanical alignment member (60). For example, the microlaser
assembly (10) can include a first mechanical alignment member (60) for aligning
the microresonator (11) and the beam steering element (50) and a second

Abstract: Data objects replicated at multiple computers can be synchronized using
synchronization messages exchanged over a network. The synchronization messages include
a current operation parameter and a previous operation parameter that are processed to
determine how and when the replicated data objects should be manipulated. The current
operation parameter identifies an operation and associated data to be executed at a receiving
computer to synchronize the receiving computer's data object. An execution stage parameter
is also sent to identify a correct execution timing for the operation. The previous operation
parameter identifies a preceding operation executed by the sending computer, an execution
stage at which the preceding operation was executed, and the computer first originating the
preceding operation (e.g., an identify of a third computer that first initiated the operation).
Data in the synchronization message can also indicate a unique priority level of the sending
computer with respect to the other computers.
