Title: Automatic program restructuring to reduce average cache miss penalty
Inventor: BLAINEY ROBERT J
IPC: G06F12/02
Filed: 2001-11-19
Granted: 2006-06-06
Abstract: A method, a computer or computer program product for automatically restructuring a program having arrays in inner loops to reduce an average penalty incurred for bursty cache miss patterns by spreading out the cache misses. The method may be used separately or in conjunction with methods for reducing the number of cache misses. The method determines a padding required for each array according to a proportion of the cache line size, to offset the starting points of the arrays relative to the start of a cache line memory access address for each array. Preferably, the starting points of the arrays that induce bursty cache misses are padded so that they are uniformly spaced from one another.
Patent CA-2369591-C (CA)
Inventor: BAY WILLIAM E
IPC: A61K9/20
Filed: 2000-04-05
Granted: 2011-06-14
Abstract: The inventors have discovered that the disodium salt of certain delivery agents has surprisingly greater efficacy for delivering active agents than the corresponding monosodium salt. Furthermore, the inventors have discovered that the disodium salts of these delivery agents form solvates with ethanol and hydrates with water. The delivery agents have formula (I) wherein R1, R2, R3, and R4 are indepedently hydrogen, halogen, C1-C4 alkyl, or C1-C4 alkoxy; and R5 is a substituted or unsubstituted C2-C16 alkylene, substituted or unsubstituted C2-C16 alkenylene, substituted or unsubstituted C1-C12 alkyl(arylene), or substituted or unsubstituted aryl(C1-C12 alkylene). The hydrates and solvates of present invention also have surprisingly greater efficacy for delivering active agents, such as heparin and calcitonin, than their corresponding monosodium salts and free acids. The present invention provides an alcohol solvate, such as ethanol solvate, of a disodium salt of a delivery agent of formula (I) above. Preferred delivery agents include, but are not limited to, N-(5-chlorosalicyloyl)-8-aminocaprylic acid (5-CNAC),N-(10-[2-hydroxybenzoyl]amino)decanoic acid (SNAD), and sodium N-(8-[2-hydroxybenzoyl]amino)caprylate (SNAC). The invention also provides methods of preparing the disodium salt, ethanol solvate, and hydrate and compositions containing the disodium salt, ethanol solvate, and/or hydrate.

Abstract: A fluid rotary machine (10) includes an inner housing (12) provided with a manifold (68) for directing working fluid through the machine (10) and an outer housing (14) coupled to the inner housing (12) so that the outer housing (14) can rotate relative to the inner housing (12). A plurality of swinging gates (16) are supported along one longitudinal edge in corresponding sockets (38) formed along the inner circumferential surface (32) of outer housing (14). A plurality of elongated lobes (30) are supported on and evenly spaced about the inner housing (12). There is one intake port (24) and one exhaust port (26) between adjacent lobes (30). The gates (16) are biased so as to ordinarily seal against the inner housing (12). High pressure fluid enters through the inlet port (24) to a region between a lobe (30) and gate (16) causing the outer housing (14) to rotate. Eventually the gate (16) wipes across an exhaust port (26) venting the high pressure fluid through the exhaust port. The gate (16) is then lifted from the surface of the inner housing (12) by contact with the next lobe (30).

Title: Device for blocking a safety brake for lift
Inventor: MAURY JULIEN
IPC: B66B5/04
Filed: 2002-09-24
Granted: 2010-07-20
Abstract: In this lift equipment a lift cage (2) is on the way down, wherein a halt at the bottom storey is scheduled. If the lift cage (2) does not halt at the bottom storey according to plan, the lift cage (2) in its further travel is caught by buffers (26). In that case a safety brake (16) can be tripped due to the inertia of a speed limiter (13) and a limiter cable (19). So that the undesired tripping of the safety brake (16) can be avoided in the case of buffer travel, there is provided in the lift shaft (1) a blocking element (27) which blocks the movement of a blocking lever (25) as soon as the lift cage (2) has gone down past the bottom storey. The blocked blocking lever (25) blocks one double lever (14) and, by way of a linkage (18), the other double lever (14). Tripping of the safety brake (16) is thus precluded.

Filed: 2001-06-07
Granted: 2010-08-10
Abstract: It has been discovered that a mechanical flotation system having only two cells can be nearly as efficient as one having more cells, yet provide an apparatus with a considerably smaller footprint, significantly reduced capital and operating costs, as well as be resistant to floating oil recovery platform wave effects. The dual-cell mechanical flotation (10) system has, in sequential order, an inlet chamber (16) and two gasification chambers or cells (18, 20), each with at least one gas ingestion and mixing mechanism (32), and a discharge chamber (24). A common primary skim collection channel (40) atop the partition (44) dividing the gasification chambers (18, 20) efficiently channels away the bulk of the floating collected matter. At least one baffle (60) depending from the top of the vessel (12) near the primary skim collection channel (40) helps dampen the action of the fluid containing the suspended matter when the vessel (12) is affected by wave motion against the floating oil production platform.
