Abstract: A method, system and apparatus for dynamically repartitioning a partitioned computer system in response to workload demands are provided. In one embodiment, a monitoring software is used to monitor workloads on all resources in all the partitions. If a workload on a resource in a partition is determined to exceed a maximum threshold, a similar resource is allocated to the partition. The similar resource is preferentially an unassigned or unallocated resource. However, resources from other partitions may also be used. In another embodiment, a workload schedule is stored in a workload profile. If a scheduled workload in any of the resources of a partition is to exceed a maximum threshold, additional similar resources will be allocated to the partition before the scheduled workload.

Abstract: A chemical vapor sterilization process is enhanced by concentrating a germicide via exploitation of the difference between the vapor pressures of the germicide and its solvent. A diffusion restriction can be placed into the diffusion path to assist this process and the path then opened to provide rapid diffusion of the thus concentrated germicide. The path through the diffusion restriction can be closed to allow the pressure in a sterilization chamber to be lowered prior to receiving the concentrated germicide.

Title: Mitigation of multipath effects in global positioning system receivers
Inventor: STANSELL THOMAS ATLEE JR
IPC: G01S19/30
Filed: 1996-05-24
Granted: 2008-08-12
Abstract: A technique for minimizing or eliminating the effect of multipath signals in a receiver processing pseudorandom (PRN) code signals, such as in a global positioning system (EPS) receiver. The presence of multipath signals adversely affects both node measurements and carrier phase measurements of received PRN signals. One aspect of the invention provides for improved code tracking in the presence of multipath signals, by sampling the received code with a multipath mitigation window (MMW) (FIG. 25D) that results in a code error function (FIG. 25F) that reduces or eliminates the multipath effects. The MMW, which stay by any of a number of preferred waveforms (FIGS. 35b-358), provides a code error function that varies in opposite directions from zero at a desired tracking point (402), but assumes a nearly zero value when the MMW is advanced from the tracking or synchronization point by more than a small fraction of a code chip. Because of this nearly zero code error value on the early side of the desired tracking paint, delayed multipath signals will have a corresponding code error function that is nearly zero (FIG. 25F) at the desired tracking point of the directly received signals, and the multipath signals will, therefore, have little or no effect on the desired tracking point and on code synchronization. The effects of multipath signals on carrier phase measurements are minimized by sampling the received signals, together with their possible multipath components, before and immediately after code transitions (vectors A and B respectively). The vector relationship of the directly received (D) and multipath (M) signals is such that performing a vector average of the two types of samples (A and B) produces the directly received signal (D) and its correct phase, with many, if not all, of the multipath components (M) eliminated.
