Abstract: A heat exchanger for exchange of heat between a first fluid and a second fluid comprises a stack of pockets ( 1 ) mutually aligned in a longitudinal direction and having two header boxes ( 16, 17 ) that are mutually juxtaposed in a lateral direction. The first fluid is injected into an upstream connecting channel ( 12 ) by a longitudinal nozzle ( 22 ) passing through a heat exchanger end face ( 5 ) remote from the upstream connecting channel, and at least one other connecting channel ( 14 ). This longitudinal nozzle has a cross section of oblong general shape, whose greatest dimension is parallel to the greatest dimension of the pockets. The heat exchanger may be produced particularly in the form of an evaporator for an air-conditioning device for the passenger compartment of a vehicle.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé et un dispositif pour le stockage et la récupération de données dans un système informatique. La compression de données intervient sur les données stockées, par réduction ou élimination de valeurs dupliquées dans un bloc de base de données. Plutôt que de reproduire ces valeurs dans l'unité de stockage, on établit une configuration des données sur disque pour référencer une copie des valeurs en question dans une table de symboles. L'invention concerne également un procédé et un dispositif pour l'amélioration de la performance des formulations de langage d'interrogation de base de données. L'information décrivant la duplication de données dans un bloc de données est maintenue. Selon une variante, cette information permet de réduire le nombre d'évaluations de prédicats dans le bloc de données lorsqu'une interrogation de base de données est reçue pour les données du bloc de données. Selon une autre variante, cette information permet de réduire la quantité de données à laquelle on accède par le biais d'une formulation de langage d'interrogation de base de données.

Abstract: In a preferred embodiment is described a scheduling architecture, including a plurality of queues each within an associated queue control unit, and a plurality of data control units. The queue control units are directed to operations that obtain data for transmission of a stream from a host and ensure that it is available for transmission, preferably as a single stream. The data control units are each directed to operations that format the data from the queue control units in dependence upon the transmission (or channel) characteristics that are to be associated with that data. Further, each queue control unit can configurably be input to any of the data control units. In one embodiment the output of each of the data control units is controlled by a data arbiter, so that a single stream of data is obtained.
