Abstract: In the field of electrotherapy, there are currently known devices and methods, in which either the frequency or the amplitude of a therapeutic current is varied. According to a representation of the amplitude on a logarithmic frequency scale, said methods are designated correspondingly as methods of vertical or horizontal stimulation. Various advantages and disadvantages are associated with both methods. The invention relates to a device for carrying out an electrotherapeutic method, according to which the amplitude (A) and the frequency (f) of the therapeutic current (i<SUB>B</SUB>) are simultaneously varied within a therapeutic frequency band (f<SUB>B</SUB>), which lies in the medium frequency range, in such a way that the method is carried out in discrete frequency steps, either in the range of different frequencies lying just below a stimulation threshold (RS), or periodically between a stimulation that lies above the threshold and a stimulation that lies below said threshold.

Abstract: Method of controlling the injection of a fluid into an internal combustion engine, comprising a piston reciprocating in a cylinder between top and bottom dead center points, and a nozzle arranged in the cylinder. The method includes injecting a fluid with an initial injection pressure into the cylinder, the fluid being ignited, so that the pressure in the cylinder increases, thereby causing the piston to be displaced towards the top dead center point, and effecting at least one injection pause during injection. The injection, immediately after the injection pause, is effected so that the injection pressure has increased in an interval of more than 0 bar and up to 2000 bar relative to an injection pressure prevailing immediately prior to the injection pause, and the injection pause is effected for a duration corresponding to an angle of rotation of an engine crankshaft in the interval 1°-30°.

Abstract: A technique for efficiently transferring files in a peer-to-peer network promotes substantially real-time file sharing over the network. Nodes of the network may serve as both clients and servers, such that the file transfer burden in the network is equitably distributed across the nodes of the network, generally ensuring that the file dissemination process is executed as quickly as possible. In an embodiment, each node that has or receives a file advertises possession of the file so that other nodes may obtain the file therefrom. In an embodiment, a node may simultaneously receive a file via download from a particular node and serve that same file via upload to another node. Within this embodiment, a generation identifier is preferably associated with each copy of the file to prevent two nodes, each having only part of a file, from attempting to retrieve the remainder of the file from each other. <IMAGE>
