Granted: 2003-05-07
Abstract: A plurality of storage servers (5, 7, 8, 9) are connected in a subnet (1) that is connected to a main network (2) via a single one of the storage servers (5). All traffic from the main network passes through the single storage server which operates in file mode and has an internal protocol server, such as a DHCP server, turned on. The other servers operate in a slave mode with their internal protocol servers turned off and function at block level. An automated master/slave recognition system operates on start up. All the storage servers power up as slaves requesting IP addresses. The storage server connected to the main network recognizes that it has received its address from the main network by virtue of receipt of standard protocol. It then turns on its own internal protocol server and adopts master mode. The master servers internal protocol server sends out the IP addresses for the storage subnet in a modified protocol, and on receipt of these the other storage servers remain in slave mode.

Title: Commodity metering systems
Inventor: VAUGHAN JOHN EDWARD
IPC: G07F15/08
Filed: 1987-06-16
Granted: 1990-08-22
Abstract: A multi-rate commodity metering system comprises an electronic key containing an EEPROM, and a meter for metering the commodity and having a receptacle for receiving the key. The meter also contains a real-time clock. The key can operate as a programming device and a meter-reading device. When the key is initially inserted into the meter, it starts a billing period, eg a quarter, and if necessary programs the meter with the times for switching between rates and the prices per unit of the commodity for each rate. Towards the end of the billing period, the meter reading is entered into the key with the time and date to which it relates and a visible and/or audible warning is produced to remind the customer to remove the key and take it to the commodity supplier's premises so that the supplier can read out the meter reading from the key. If the customer fails to do this within a certain time, the supply of the commodity is cut off, although an emergency supply can be obtained for a further predetermined time if necessary.
Patent GB-2271451-B (GB)
Title: Data recovery after error correction failure
Inventor: WENG LIH-JYH
IPC: G06F11/18
Filed: 1993-03-12
Granted: 1996-02-14
Abstract: A method of data recovery in systems employing error-correction coding techniques is described. The technique may be used, for example, in conjunction with a data storage device or a data communications network. Several trials of accessing or transmitting the ECC-protected data are performed. The data from each trial is decoded, and is also saved. If none of the trials results in the successful decoding of the data, then a reconstruction function is employed to create a reconstructed version of the data from the sequence of data created by the trials. One method of reconstruction involves majority voting on a symbol-by-symbol basis. The reconstructed data created that way is then decoded in the same fashion as for each trial. A more powerful reconstruction function employs a threshold to determine whether each voted-on symbol is sufficiently "reliable". If not, it is marked as an erasure. The reconstructed data created by this reconstruction function is decoded according to an error-and-erasure algorithm, which increases the error-correcting power of the ECC.

Granted: 1990-04-12
Abstract: In a telecine chain, the scanning raster is rotated by applying a magnetic field perpendicular to the axis of the electron beam, and the distortion introduced by such rotation is compensated for. A rotate coil is located about the scanning tube the coil formed so that current passing through it induces the magnetic field and thus effects the rotation of the raster. The degree of rotation is within limits dependent on the current, and the direction of rotation is dependent on the direction of current flow. There is pref. an Absolute Angle Generator which has an input common with the input which controls the current through the Rotate Coil and which provides outputs for the compensation functions. Focus compensation is effected by applying a stimulus to the focus system which is based on the degree of rotation being effected.
