Title: Software component importance evaluation system
Inventor: INOUE KATSURO
IPC: G06F9/44
Filed: 2002-10-02
Abstract: A system for measuring the importance of reuse of software on the basis of an objective criterion. At a file relationship extracting step (S212), a Java source code file (230) is analyzed and the class-to-class inheritance is extracted as a reuse relationship. At an SMMT step (S222), the similarity between Java source code files (230) is calculated. At a step (S224), cluster analysis is carried out on the basis of the similarity calculated at the SMMT  step (S222), and the files are categorized into M component groups. Based on the results of the cluster analysis (S224) and the extraction of the relationship between files (S212), the relationship between the component groups is extracted (S214). Evaluation by using the relative importance evaluation value of the component groups is carried out on the basis of the relationship between the component groups (S216). Lastly, the relative importance evaluation of the component groups is converted into the evaluation of the file (software component) (S218).

Title: System and method for certification of avionics subsystems
Inventor: PEARSON JEFFERY
IPC: G06F9/445
Filed: 2003-04-18
Abstract: A system having replaceable subsystems is operable in a certified configuration after installation of a replacement subsystem. The system includes several subsystems each installed at an interface. For each subsystem, the interface includes memory having a description of the operating environment for that subsystem. The memory stores modules each having a signature, for example, a cyclic redundancy code (CRC). After installation of a replacement subsystem, a processor in the subsystem checks a list of signatures. Each signature corresponds to a module that is certified for use by an application program of the subsystem. If a listed signature corresponds to a module that is available in the memory, is desirable to be used, and the subsystem is not presently configured to use such a module, the subsystem reads the module, integrates the data of the module into an operating configuration, and operates thereafter in accordance with the updated operating configuration. In one implementation, an aircraft collision avoidance system includes one or more replaceable subsystems that each read a memory in a tray of the cockpit interface and configure themselves for updated operation.

Title: Process for mixing treatment additives to contaminated liquids
Inventor: MATHERLY THOMAS G
IPC: B01F5/00
Filed: 2002-10-30
Abstract: To optimally mix treatment additives to a contaminated liquid, treatment additives are selected. A mixing energy requirement of the contaminated liquid and treatment additives is then determined by mixing the treatment additives over a range of time and mixing speeds, and measuring turbidity to determine the mixing time and speed which results in the lowest turbidity. A low mixing energy requirement requires a lower mixing time and mixing speed than a higher mixing energy requirement. The contaminated liquid and selected treatment additives are then directed into a mixing system (32) including at least one hydrocyclone (20). Each hydrocyclone (20) has an inlet aspect ratio, a barrel length and diameter selected based upon the mixing energy requirement determination. Altering the aspect ratio, diameter, and length of the hydrocyclone results in different mixing speeds and mixing time, which can be optimized for the given contaminated liquid and treatment additives.
