IPC: G06F9/54
Filed: 1995-03-20
Abstract: In a transaction processing system that includes a plurality of
client processes (40) coupled to a server process (42), the server process
supports execution of transactions generated by the client processes. The
server process includes, for each client process being served, one or more
transaction message control mechanisms. Each transaction message control
mechanism includes a named processing object that includes a name
identifying the object. The named processing object also includes an
input process that receives all transaction request messages naming the
object and identifying the originating client process. The input process
dispatches a transaction process for each transaction request message
received from the respective client process. Each transaction process
oversees transaction execution and receives transaction output. A
transaction process provides a transaction output message for the
originating client process. In a non-sync'd mode of operation,
transaction processes may synchronously send transaction output messages
to client processes. In a synchronized mode of operation, one transaction
process at a time sends output messages under control of an output process
in the named processing object. The transaction message control
mechanisms provide a bi-directional transaction message flow between
server and client processes.

Abstract: The very weak primary spring (2) has an extremely flat characteristic line in the 'vehicle empty' loading state. This spring characteristic line evolves into a very steep spring characteristic line when there is only a slight increase in spring force and a reduced spring path. Additional spring forces, which arise through the loading of the vehicle, are taken up by a second very weak additional spring, which then engages on a regulatable basis, when the springing exceeds an adjustable value. The primary spring and the additional spring are connected in parallel and together form a structural part.

Abstract: An analog processor for use with digital
satellites is disclosed. The analog processor is
connected between the receiving circuitry of the
satellite and a pool of digital on-board processors,
and segments the bandwidth of uplink RF beams into
sub-bands that can be processed more readily with
standard, low-risk, low-power digital processors.
Using the present invention, the risk of employing a
particular digital processor technology can be
managed and optimized. The present invention also
provides for the dynamic allocation and reallocation
of the available on-board digital processing
bandwidth based on the anticipated traffic pattern
and changes in the traffic pattern. In addition,
the present invention facilitates the use of
standard and non-standard redundancy schemes at
minimal hardware expense.

Abstract: A sample of anticoagulated mammalian whole blood is admixed with a combination of
reagents that will reduce the natural repulsive forces that mammalian erythrocytes
have for each other. The treated blood sample is then centrifuged in a tube containing
a buffy coat expanding insert thereby physically expanding the axial extent of the
blood sample s buffy coat components in the tube. By reducing the tendency of the
erythrocytes to repel each other, a clearer demarcation between the erythrocytes and
the buffy coat can be achieved. The effect of agglutinating reagents which may have
been added to the blood sample will also be enhanced. The aforesaid procedure and
reagents make it possible for the first time to accurately analyze a centrifuged sample
of anticoagulated bovine whole blood and obtain hematocrit and differential white cell
counts therefrom. Additionally, human blood samples which otherwise exhibit a
streaming tendency can also be accurately analyzed by the addition of a combination
of the appropriate erythrocyte repulsion-reducing reagents along with agglutinating
reagents.
