Abstract: A bridge for a multi-processor system includes bus interfaces for connection to an I/O bus of a first processing set, an I/O bus of a second processing set and a device bus. It also comprises a bridge control mechanism configured to be operable, in an operational mode to permit access by at least one of the first and second processing sets to bridge resources and to the device bus and, in an error mode, to prevent access by the processing sets to the device bus and to permit restricted access to at least one of the processing sets to at least predetermined bridge resources. By providing restricted access to selected parameters held in the bridge during an error mode, the bridge can act as a secure repository for information which can be used by the processing sets to investigate the error and hopefully to recover therefrom, while preventing I/O devices connected to device bus from being corrupted by a faulty processing set. Storage in the bridge provides for buffering data pending resolution of the error.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for generating artificial atmospheres in a furnace (100) for the heat treating of materials. The furnace (100) includes a substantially isolated chamber (102) having a discharge receiving orifice (103) for accepting a bi-phasic cryogen into a hot/work zone (111) of the chamber. A low pressure cryogen source (114) feeds a bi-phasic inert gas into the chamber (102) in order to allow the volumetric expansion of the evaporating liquid constituent of the bi-phasic cryogen to purge a substantial portion of the ambient oxygen from the chamber and to allow a substantial residual concentration of the inert gas to blanket the process area without significant dissipation during the heat treating process. Oxidizable materials heat treated in artificial atmospheres generated by use of bi-phasic cryogens show no signs of scaling or staining through the process and thus do not need to undergo acid bathing prior to subsequent processing.

Abstract: Block paving is well known and can be used to create a circular paved area. Conventionally, rectangular blocks are used by arranging a first circle of blocks spread out like a fan around a centrepiece and subsequently further rows of blocks are fitted around the first row. Using this method the adjacent blocks are not parallel and there is a tapering gap between blocks which can be unsightly and difficult to fill. A method of manufacturing a set of paving blocks for use in producing a circular paved area is described, the set having at least a first course 11 and a second course 12 having a different radius from the first course, the courses being selected such that the set can be manufactured from a single mould. The method of manufacturing the set is such that the courses of the set can be assembled with a plurality of similar sets in a circular manner with the sides of adjacent blocks parallel, thereby avoiding unsightly gaps that are difficult to fill. <IMAGE>

Abstract: In a network with a sending system networked to at least one receiving system, it is sometimes desirable to transfer relatively short messages between the sending system and receiving systems in a highly reliable yet highly efficient manner. The present invention defines two short message protocols, one of which relies on a statistical model and the other of which uses positive acknowledgement to track receipt of transmitted packets by intended recipient. In the statistical reliability mode messages are divided into a guaranteed minimum number of packets, with additional packets being added if the message length is insufficient to fill the guaranteed minimum number of packets. The positive reliability mode of the present invention periodically sets an acknowledgement flag in the packets transmitted for a message. Receiving systems send an acknowledgement in response to receipt of that packet. The sending system tracks receipt of acknowledgements by intended recipient and retransmits any unacknowledged packets so as to positively assure the packets are received. Receiving systems send negative acknowledgements to request retransmission of missing packets. Negative acknowledgement suppression is implemented at both the sender and receiver to prevent a flood of negative acknowledgements from overwhelming the network. When packets are missed, the receiver selects a wait time that must elapse before the negative acknowledgement is sent. The wait time is selected according to a defined probability density function that results in relatively few negative acknowledgements being sent early on and relatively more negative acknowledgements being sent later on. <IMAGE>

Inventor: OTT REINHOLD
IPC: G08B13/14
Filed: 2004-01-20
Abstract: The invention relates to methods and devices for protecting an article against theft. Once a protection element is in the on-position, a selection signal is transmitted from an emitter to a receiver provided in the protection element, in order to associate the protection element with the emitter and to shift said protection element into a connection mode. The receiver is then deactivated in the connection mode. The deactivation of the receiver reduces the energy consumption of the protection element, and prevents the protection element from unintentionally receiving other selection signals. Once the protection element has been shifted into an alarm state, for example, due to an attempted theft, the receiver thereof is reactivated, in order to reauthorize the reception of a selection signal. The alarm state can be terminated by one such selection signal.
