Abstract: The invention generally features a write history log that is used in the preferred embodiment to perform a management operation, such as a merge operation, on a shadow set. The preferred embodiment features a method of managing a shadow set of storage media accessible by one or more data sources, comprising the steps of: A. maintaining a log of information relating to locations within the shadow set storage media to which data is written from at least one of the data sources, and B. carrying out a management operation by: a. accessing the log to determine information relating to one or more of the locations to which data has been written, and b. carrying out the management operation with respect to the one or more locations, based on the results of the step of accessing the log. In the preferred embodiment, the information comprises the addresses of the locations to which the data was written and an identification of the source or sources from which data was written. The management operation is carried out with respect to locations selected on the basis of the source from which data was written. The information is stored in the log for data written to the shadow set over a predetermined period of time. The information in the log relates to locations within the storage media to which data was written from a plurality of sources.

Abstract: An Electronic Accident Estimating System has been produced by integrating commercially available electronic hardware with proprietary software developed expressly for the estimating system. Electronic images of accidented vehicles are taken by the bodyshop estimator. These images are then imported to a computer by using a color video digitizer. The images, once resident in the computer, provide the visual evidence substantiating the estimated accident damage. The bodyshop estimator fills in the accident estimate on the computer, highlighting areas on the various images as required. Once the estimate is completed, the estimate file is compressed in size and transmitted electronically to the insurance company. At the insurance company, an insurance estimator then decompresses the estimate file and begins to peruse the estimate. If further clarification is required, the insurance estimator can request more images to be taken and transmitted. Execution of repairs can also be easily audited by the insurance company by simply requesting that images be taken during the repairs at specific repair milestones ( replacement of body panels, application of primer, etc. ) and transmitted to their office. The system also provides on-line archiving of accident estimates. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A method and apparatus for providing a fault-tolerant backup system such that if there is a failure of a primary processing system, a replicated system can take over without interruption. The invention provides a software solution for providing a backup system. Two servers are provided, a primary and secondary server. The two servers are connected via a communications channel. The servers have associated with them an operating system. The present invention divides this operating system into two "engines." An I/O engine is responsible for handling and receiving all data and asynchronous events on the system. The I/O engine controls and interfaces with physical devices and device drivers. The operating system (OS) engine is used to operate on data received from the I/O engine. All events or data which can change the state of the operating system are channeled through the I/O engine and converted to a message format. The I/O engine on the two servers coordinate with each other and provide the same sequence of messages to the OS engines. The messages are provided to a message queue accessed by the OS engine. Therefore, regardless of the timing of the events, (i.e., asynchronous events), the OS engine receives all events sequentially through a continuous sequential stream of input data. As a result, the OS engine is a finite state automata with a one-dimensional input "view" of the rest of the system and the state of the OS engines on both primary and secondary servers will converge.

Abstract: A heat treatment furnace for bulk materials, in particular metal sheets, which has a transport device for conveying the goods to be treated through the furnace. This transport device has two groups of longitudinal beams (1, 2) which carry the materials and lie alternately at a spacing next to one another and at least one beam group of which can be moved forwards over a part length of the transport path through the furnace in a higher position than the other beam group and subsequently, in a lower position than this other beam group, be moved backwards into its starting position. Provided under each longitudinal beam is a support construction (6) which supports it and is movable with it and which has at least one side surface which extends continuously over the entire length of the support construction and which faces the support construction of the adjacent longitudinal beam. According to the invention, there is provided between the two adjacent support constructions (6) a flexible tube (11) which likewise extends over the entire length of the support constructions and which can be expanded in cross-section by filling with a pneumatic or hydraulic pressure medium and thus brought to bear closely against said side surface.
