Title: A method, including modelling, for determining physical parameters of a sample
Inventor: GOGLIN ELODIE
IPC: G01N33/24
Filed: 2000-09-19
Abstract: Method for faster determining certain physical parameters (capillary pressure curves and relative permeabilities for example) of a geologic sample initially saturated with a first fluid placed in a vessel and subjected to centrifugation in the presence of a second fluid. The equilibrium saturations are determined long before complete stabilization is reached, through analytic modelling involving exponential functions, best adjusting to an effective production curve, for each speed stage. A database obtained by means of various simulations is used to obtain the relative permeability curves corresponding to the centrifuged sample. The method can be applied for measurement of petrophysical characteristics. The method comprises measuring the amount of fluids displaced by centrifugation and establishing saturation curves, characterized in that it comprises, for each rotating speed, modelling a saturation curve best corresponding at each time interval to the curve portion already obtained. The figure shows a centrifugation device having a cup 13 for the porous rock sample, which is initially saturated with brine and placed in cup 13. The cup 13 is initially filled with an electrically insulating fluid such as oil.

Title: Optical differential M-ary phase shift keying
Inventor: GRIFFIN ROBERT
IPC: H04B10/556
Filed: 2000-12-21
Abstract: A method of transmitting a plurality n data streams comprises modulating an optical carrier using differential <I>M</I>-ary phase shift key (DMPSK) signalling in which <I>M</I>=2<SP>n</SP>. Advantageously the method comprises using differential quaternary phase shift keying in which n=2. A particular advantage of the method of the present invention is that since the data is differentially encoded in the form of phase changes rather than absolute phase values this enables the modulated optical cater to be demodulated using direct detection without requiring a phase-locked local optical oscillator. The invention is particularly applicable to WDM communication systems.
Patent GB-2380035-A (GB)
Title: A method and apparatus for refresh command operations on an SDRAM that avoids use of refresh commands requiring all banks of the SDRAM to be idle
Inventor: DE PAOR DENISE
IPC: G11C7/10
Filed: 2001-09-19
Abstract: Burst operation establishes command sequences that include Nop command intervals. Some of these Nop intervals are used to perform operations on a bank other than the one under access for the burst that provide a refresh. ACTIVE followed by PRECHARGE commands are inserted into the command intervals addressed to a refresh address. The refresh addresses are generated externally of the SDRAM and provided to a multiplexer 3 that sequences them with the data addresses. A secondary timer checks that required refresh has occurred and prioritises the refresh addresses over data addresses in the multiplexer in the event that a refresh has not been completed shortly before a maximum refresh interval.

Title: Resetting controllers in a redundant-controller data storage system
Inventor: OLDFIELD BARRY J
IPC: G06F1/24
Filed: 2002-03-08
Abstract: In a method of handling a controller reset in a redundant-controller storage system having first and second controllers, a controller reset on the second controller is detected (402) and the first controller is notified (404) via an inter-controller communication link (a mirror bus). Both controllers are then shut down (406), brought back online (412) and reset (414). The communication link is temporarily disabled (416), whereby detection of a subsequent reset on the second controller cannot be notified to the first controller via the link until the controllers have passed self-tests (418, 420) and the link has been re-enabled (424). The arrangement allows hardware management of reset synchronisation between multiple controller boards. Disabling the link allows resets to be localised.
