Abstract: A multiple device management method and system that
executes commands on one controller computer, such as in a
data center, to initiate operations on controlled computers
containing agent software. An operation may comprise the
execution of script, execution of a binary program, or other
operations. The mechanism works with sets of computers as if
they were a single computer, whereby, for example, management
of computing devices is greatly simplified, and the cost of
managing computing devices in a data center is significantly
reduced. The controller communicates with the nodes using a
messaging format, and provides a schema to represent the
available nodes in the data center, their organization into
sets, and the results of ongoing and completed operations.
The schema may also be used to manage jobs to perform on nodes
and sets of nodes.

Abstract: An adaptor for a socket set has a large diameter section with straight splines to fit into a similarly shaped socket in the spanner, and a smaller diameter end with an inner profile to take sockets or to fit onto a nut/screw head. The larger diameter section locates through the thickness of the spanner and has a thickened front rim to locate the adaptor into the fitting and to prevent it slipping through the fitting. The thickening can be via a profiled ridge or by a slight increase in the outer diameter of the spline pattern. The two sections of the adaptor are linked by a tapering section.

Abstract: A grid convergence solution computation system computes a
computed value (A high ) of high-order accuracy, using a single
grid, computes a computed value (A low ) of low-order accuracy,
using the same single grid, and computes a grid convergence
solution based on the relation between the computed value
(A high ) of high-order accuracy and the computed value (A low )
of low-order accuracy on an assumption that the relation
between the computed value (A high ) of high-order accuracy, the
computed value (A low ) of low-order accuracy, and the grid
convergence solution (A conv ) is substantially constant
regardless of fineness or coarseness of the grid. The grid
convergence solution computation system computes a highly
accurate grid convergence solution (A conv ) by using small
computational complexity.

Abstract: In order to reduce the traffic over the communication bus
(31) between the host processing unit (32) and an emulator
server unit (34) during the test of a target processing unit
(36), the commands are divided into groups of test commands. A
group of commands is transferred to the emulator server unit
(34) and stored in a memory unit (344) of the emulator server
unit (34). The emulator server unit (34) then applies each
command of the group of commands to a target processing unit
(36). The resultant data generated as a result of the
application of each command is stored in the emulator server
unit (34). When all the commands of the group of commands have
been executed by the target processing unit (36) and the
resultant data stored in the emulator server unit (34), the
resultant data is transferred to the host processing unit (32)
in a single communication bus access.

Abstract: A message sequencing mechanism adds text in a display area based on relational importance. Each message is coded with an identification. The message is added to the display area based on previous identifications. The messages are categorized and sorted first by identification and then by chronology. Messages may be displayed in ascending or descending order with respect to both the identification and the time order of the messages. If the identification dictates that the message is to be added between two existing entries, a space for the new message is made between related entries in the display area, and the new message is added. Messages may also include a sub identification for more defined relationships. Furthermore, a message may be text or other media, such as sound, image, or video. The field may also be automatically scrolled to display the most recent message in association with related messages.
