Title: Method and system for wear leveling in a solid state drive
Filed: 2011-03-14
Abstract: A method and system for wear leveling in a solid state drive by mapping the logical regions of the solid state drive that hold static content or information into the physical regions of the solid state drive that have erase counts more than an average erase count of all of the physical regions. By doing so, it allows the solid state drive to wear level itself naturally through continued usage. In one embodiment of the invention, the erase count of each physical region is incremented with every erasing operation of each physical region. The physical regions that have a high count of erase count operations are mapped with content of the logical regions with static content so that the possibility of future erase operations of these physical regions is reduced.

Title: Method of and apparatus for analysis of a sample of biological tissue cells
Filed: 2011-10-14
Abstract: At least first and second digital images of the sample are acquired having different focal heights relative to a platform on which the cells are disposed. A contrast matrix is produced having elements computed in dependence upon the difference between the values of the corresponding pixels in the first and second images. A phase matrix is produced by convolution of the contrast matrix with a predetermined distance matrix. The phase matrix is used to assess characteristics of the sample, such as the presence of cells in the sample or the heights of cells in the sample. The application also discloses use of a flashing light source to illuminate the sample, measuring the height of the platform based on the image of a beam reflected into the objective element of the imaging system and illuminating the sample with different colours of light and combining the images so produced.

Title: Controlling the heating of rooms
Filed: 2012-06-07
Abstract: Rooms in a building 209 are heated by a plurality of electric storage heaters 204,205,206,20M. Each storage heater has a respective local controller 201,202,203,20N that receives a schedule from a building controller 207. The schedule determines when and how much off-peak electricity the respective heaters will receive to store as thermal energy and when the respective heaters will release stored thermal energy. The building controller receives the schedules from a central controller 208. The central controller determines the schedules based upon regional data, such as information on electricity tariffs or weather reports, received from an external data source 211 and also upon local data and building data received from the building controller. The local data is obtained by each respective local controller and sent to the building controller for relaying to the central controller. The local data may relate to room temperature or occupancy. The building data is obtained by the building controller via building-wide detectors 210, which may sense ambient conditions outside the building. The central controller controls a plurality of building controllers, each in a respective building having a respective plurality of electric storage heaters. Communication between the central controller, building controllers and local controllers may be wireless.

Title: Speed-power scaling for mos circuit
Inventor: SHEPPARD DOUGLAS PARKS
IPC: H01L27/08
Filed: 1982-12-09
Granted: 1989-04-06
Abstract: The power consumption and corresponding speed of an integrated circuit is scaled by means of adjusting the channel width for MOS transistors. A transistor (12) is initially fabricated with a channel (24) having a width W1. The channel (24) receives a depletion type implant (30) to make the transistor (12) lightly depleted. An enhancement implant (32) is applied to the channel (24) to cover a selected area (24a). The enhancement implant (32) is made substantially stronger than the depletion implant (30). This results in a first section (24a) of the channel (24) having a large threshold voltage while the second section (24b) of channel (24) has a relatively small pinch-off voltage. The size of the second section (24b) is selectively controlled to scale the source-drain current of transistor (12) and the corresponding power consumption of the transistor (12). The method of applying the first and second implants (30, 32) can be easily incorporated into conventional ROM fabrication without the need for additional manufacturing steps.
Patent DE-3361843-D1 (DE)
Title: Device for operating a pivoting charging chute
Inventor: LEGILLE EDOUARD
IPC: C21B7/20
Filed: 1983-06-11
Granted: 1986-02-27
Abstract: A drive means for an oscillating spout is presented which includes a control mechanism which directs a control arm to perform the movement required by the spout and a transmission device which acts to transmit the control arm movement and reproduce it as spout movement. The control mechanism consists of a driving rod pivotally connected to an intermediate lever arm and a universal joint connecting the lever arm to the control arm. A novel movable torque means is associated with the universal joint and enables the spout to be moved in and out of a vertical orientation by overcoming the tendency of the components of the control mechanism to become axially locked in a 180 DEG  angle. The movable torque means accomplishes this result by reducing the angle between the intermediate lever and control arm when that angle reaches 180 DEG .

IPC: H01R13/627
Filed: 1985-01-18
Granted: 1989-02-02
Abstract: Locking springs (17) project from a plug body (11), and support bars (21) are axially movably held against the locking springs. The support bars axially engage a coupling sleeve (23) through engagement members. With the support bars in engagement with the coupling sleeve, the support bars are urged to move in a forward direction under the bias of a coil spring (22). When a plug is to be coupled to a socket, the support bars are caught by a front surface of a socket body, allowing the locking springs to be inserted into an insertion slot (35) in the socket body (34). When protrusions on the locking springs are inserted in recesses (38) in the insertion slot, the support bars are urged by the coil spring to be inserted into the insertion slot, and the protrusions axially engage in the recesses, whereupon the plug and the socket are locked together. When the coupling sleeve is pulled back against the bias of the coil spring, the support bars are withdrawn out of the insertion slot to allow the plug to be pulled out of the socket.
