Title: Router with virtual channel allocation
Inventor: DALLY WILLIAM J
IPC: H04L45/02
Filed: 1998-08-20
Abstract: An internet router is implemented as a network fabric of fabric routers and links. The internet router receives data packets from trunk lines or other internet links and analyzes header information in the data packets to route the data packets to output internet links. The line interface also analyzes the header to define a fabric path through the router fabric. The internet packets are broken into flits which are transferred through the router according to a wormhole routing protocol. Flits are stored in fabric routers at storage locations assigned to virtual channels corresponding the destination internet links. The virtual channels and links within the fabric define virtual networks in which congestion in one virtual network is substantially nonblocking to data flow through other virtual networks. Arbitration is performed at each fabric router to assign packets to virtual channels and to assign virtual channels to output fabric links. Data packets share access to multiple virtual channels, access being defined by dispersion code vectors. A virtual channel is enabled for possible assignment to an output fabric link upon receipt of an indication that an input buffer is available at the next fabric router of the path.

Title: Call related information receiver to receiver transfer
Inventor: DAVIS PAUL JOSEPH
IPC: H04M1/2757
Filed: 2000-03-22
Abstract: A call related information detector/receiver system which is capable of downloading call related information received at that device to another call related information detector/receiver system remote from the system which initially received the call related information, back over the telephone line. Thus, a remote user while away from the home or office can receive and synchronize call related information at a system other than the one which initially received the call related information. Thus, a remote user can update a local call related information system and review past callers to their home or business telephone at their leisure. Upon establishment of a telephone call between customer premises equipment respectively associated with the two relevant call related information detector/receiver systems, a remote call related information system will request download of call related information logged from another call related information system using the established telephone call. In the disclosed embodiment, the request signals are encoded with DTMF tones, which the receiving call related information system monitors for. Upon acceptance of a request to transmit logged call related information, previously logged call related information is retrieved from its log, formatted for transmission together with suitable header information such as the identity of the transmitting call related information system, and FSK modulated for transmission back over the telephone line. Preferably, the speaker or earpiece of off-hook customer premises equipment will be muted or suppressed during transmission of the data corresponding to the call related information. The particular call related information transmitted may be particularly or generally requested by the remote call related information system, either by pre-stored commands based on a power up configuration of the requesting call related information system, and/or in response to a direct command input by the remote user using DTMF tones.

Filed: 1998-09-18
Abstract: A method and apparatus for producing purified or ozone enriched air is accomplished by exposing an incoming air stream from a surrounding area to ultra-violet (UV) radiation to generate ozone in an ozone chamber of the system. The ozone chamber is configured to reduce air through-flow velocity and to provide time for the ozone to mix with the air and oxidize the contaminants. The air stream subsequently enters a germicidal chamber and is exposed to UV radiation at a different wavelength to destroy bacteria and any ozone in the air stream thus resulting in sterilized air. The system may include various ozone and germicidal chamber configurations to increase residence time within these chambers, enhance production of ozone or control ozone concentration levels. Further, the system may be configured for installation within a wall or ceiling, or for mounting on a ceiling fan. Moreover, the system may include a filter for removing particulate matter from an air stream, and may be utilized within or in combination with various devices, such as garage door openers, air thermal treatment units, ventilation systems or ducts, pet litter boxes, etc., to remove contaminants from an air stream in the vicinity of the devices. In addition, the system may be utilized to remove contaminants from objects, or to produce purified and/or ozone enriched air for application to, or treatment of wounds or skin conditions on, various portions of the human anatomy.

Abstract: Dispositif de reconnaissance de formes comportant des détecteurs (28) de caractéristiques modifiables, qui réagissent à un signal d'entrée (26) transduit et communiquent un signal d'activité de caractéristique (30), de façon à permettre la classification et une action de sortie (70) appropriée. Une mémoire (40) stockant une série de motifs de comparaison est utilisée par un dispositif d'affectation (66) pour trouver les caractéristiques ou parties vraisemblables dans le signal d'entrée actif (26). Chaque partie est affectée à un détecteur (28[m]) de caractéristiques estimé en être responsable. Un actualisateur (42) modifie chaque détecteur (28[m]) responsable de façon qu'il rende sa caractéristique préférée plus semblable à la partie qui lui est affectée. La modification comporte un forte contrainte sur le processus d'apprentissage des caractéristiques, notamment le postulat selon lequel les caractéristiques idéales pour décrire le domaine du motif se produisent indépendamment. Cette contrainte permet d'accroître la vitesse d'apprentissage et potentiellement d'améliorer les propriétés de variation d'échelle. Un premier mode de réalisation préféré utilise un groupe de réseaux neuronaux (50) de type OU bruités pour implémenter les détecteurs (28) de caractéristiques et la mémoire (40), ainsi que pour obtenir les parties par une segmentation provisoire du signal d'entrée actif (26). Dans un second mode de réalisation préféré, une mémoire sans perte (40) est maintenue séparée des détecteurs (28), et les parties sont constituées des différences entre le signal d'entrée actif (26) et les motifs de comparaison stockés dans la mémoire (40).

Title: Gas turbine aeroengine control system
Inventor: TSUZUKI SADACHIKA
IPC: F02C9/00
Filed: 2000-07-28
Abstract: In a control system for a gas turbine aero engine, the control system (ECU) is configured as a dual control system comprising two channels, Ch-A and Ch-B. Ch-A has two CPUs which conduct calculations separately based on the sensor outputs and one of the CPUs compares the results and if they coincide, the CPU sends the result of the other CPU to the FCU. If not, one of the CPUs determines that an abnormality arises in Ch-A and sends a result to Ch-B. Ch-B is constituted as a standby channel having only one CPU whose operation is monitored by a simple watchdog timer circuit. This enhances CPU failure detection with a relatively simple configuration, and eliminates the need for provision of an overspeed protector.

Title: Dynamic priority assignment for the allocation of server resources to competing classes of work based upon achievement of service level goals
Inventor: MULLEN DAVID CLARENCE
IPC: G06F9/50
Filed: 1999-09-07
Abstract: A facility for ranking service classes in terms of their relative levels of need for additional server resources is described. The facility utilizes a set of goals, each identifying a service class to which it applies and a goal criterion for the service class, and each specifying a desired service level specifying a minimum percentage of transactions of the service class identified by the goal for which the goal criterion should be satisfied. Each goal further specifies an indication of the level of importance of the goal. For each goal, the facility determines an achieved service level indicating the percentage of completed transactions of the service class identified by the goal for which the goal criterion specified by the goal was satisfied. The facility further identifies any goals whose desired service level exceeds their achieved service level. The facility then selects, for each service class identified by at least one identified goal, the goal identified by the service class whose importance indication indicates that it is the most important. The facility then ranks the selected service classes identified by the selected goals in accordance with the importance indications of the selected goals.
