Abstract: A data processing system has a plurality of storage systems. In this system, data replication is performed at high speed and efficiency while maintaining data integrity. In addition, when failure has occurred in a configuration element, the time necessary to resume the data replication is reduced. In accordance with an instruction from first host computer, updating of replication-target data and creation of a journal are performed in a storage system A; and updating of replication data and creation of a journal are performed in a storage system B. A storage system C retrieves a journal from the storage system B in asynchronization with the updating, and performs updating of replication data. When failure has occurred in the storage system B, a journal-retrieving end is altered to the storage system, and the replication data is updated in accordance with the retrieved journal.

Abstract: A magnetic structure for use in a magnetic recording head, the structure having improved resistance to stray field writing. The magnetic structure can be for example a magnetic shield or a return pole of a perpendicular write element. The structure includes a main body portion which may have a generally rectangular configuration, and first and second wing portions extending laterally from the sides of the body at or near the ABS. The wing portions have a depth measured perpendicular to the ABS that is significantly less than the depth of the body portion (preferably less than 25 percent of the body portion). The wing portions may also have notches formed in their ABS edges. The wings conduct flux from the ABS edge of the body portion and create a flux choking effect for magnetic flux flowing into the wings.

Abstract: A method for digital video distribution includes transmitting a multicast stream (70) over a network (20). Upon receiving, at a time subsequent to a first anchor point and prior to a second anchor point in the multicast stream, a request from a client (30) to begin receiving the multicast stream, a boost stream (80) is generated, including at least a portion of the video data in the frames (72, 74, 76, 78) between the first and second anchor points. The boost stream is transmitted to the client during an interval between the time at which the request was received and the second anchor point in the multicast stream, so as to cause the client to display the video data beginning from the first anchor point. Upon completing transmission of the boost stream, the multicast stream is transmitted to the client beginning from the second anchor point.

Abstract: A method for recording information on an optical recording medium in which a laser beam modulated into one or a plurality of write pulses with one or a plurality of write powers in accordance with target data to be written is projected onto a recording layer of the optical recording medium to form a record mark. During recording the information on the optical recording medium, a data level and a weight index are assigned to each channel bit in reference data trains before and after the target data. Recording compensation of the target data is carried out in accordance with the sum totals of the products of the data level and the weight index in the reference data trains, so that it is possible to easily carry out high areal recording by writing fine mark/space trains.

Abstract: The invention relates to retroviral vectors, especially to self-inactivating (SIN) gammaretroviral or lentiviral vectors, suitable for producing viral particles at high titers, which can be used for efficient gene transfer into mammalian cells, organs or organisms, e.g. for gene therapy. More specifically, the present invention provides modified 5'-promoter elements in the U3-region of the 5'-LTR of the vector plasmid and 3'-SIN elements modified in the U3-region of the 3'-LTR of the vector plasmid suitable for being comprised in retroviral vectors. It is a specific advantage of both the modified 5'-promoter element and of the modified 3'-SIN element, which are preferably contained in retroviral vectors in combination with one another, to increase both the titer of viral particles as well as to increase the expression of a transgene in recipient cells, which transgene is arranged between the modified LTRs according to the invention.
