Filed: 1999-12-08
Abstract: A heat exchanger useful for preheating oxidizing gases in a combustion process includes a shell having an inlet and an outlet for the ingress and egress of a first heat exchange fluid, such as a flue gas or preheated air. A first tube manifold couples an inlet end-cap to the first end of the shell. The inlet end-cap has an inlet for receiving a second heat exchange fluid, such as an oxidizing gas. In one embodiment, a second manifold couples an outlet end-cap to the second end of the shell. The second manifold includes an outlet tube therein extending from the second manifold through an outlet opening in the outlet end-cap. A tube bundle is disposed within the shell for transporting the oxidizing gas through the heat exchanger and is coupled to the first and second tube manifolds. The outlet tube collects oxidizing gas flowing through the tube bundle for discharge to a combustion system. The outlet end-cap is pressurized with an inert atmosphere and houses a chemical detector to detect the presence of oxidizing gas within the outlet end-cap.

Patent CA-2299895-A1 (CA)
Inventor: BURNS GEOFFREY FRANCIS
IPC: H04J13/00
Filed: 2000-02-29
Abstract: An apparatus and method of a shared correlator system for a code division, multiple access (CDMA) receiver employs scheduling of correlation operations with identification tags (ID-tags). The scheduling allows for shared vector generation and correlation operations between processing units by pipeline processing. The shared correlator schedules correlation operations requested by processing units, generates matched-filter PN vectors associated with the identification tags for the correlation operations, and provides correlation results for the correlation operations. Scheduling may be implemented with a control processor, scheduler and memory. The control processor determines the matched-filter PN vector information for a requested operation using the current state of a reference PN code sequence, and this information is stored as the ID-tag. The control processor stores the ID-tag at an address in memory associated with a slot of a periodic symbol schedule. A counter of the scheduler steps through each memory address to provide an ID-tag for each slot. The ID-tag allows the matched-filter PN vector information for a requested correlation operation to be provided to the vector generator and vector correlator to generate the matched-filter PN  vector for the slot.

Title: Computer file integrity verification
Inventor: MILLARD JOHN
IPC: G06F21/64
Filed: 1999-01-21
Abstract: System and method for verifying the integrity of contents within a computer file (5). A security value S is stored within the file (5). A verification function f is applied against the entire contents of the file (5) including S, where f is a function of S.      Results R of the applying step are compared against a preselected value r, where r is not stored within the file (5). When R equals r, a determination is made that the file (5) has not been modified. f is typically a distributive invertible function such as the Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC) function known as modulo p, where p is a prime number and is one bit greater than the length of S. Typically, the value of r is zero. Before executing the verification function f, a check generating program is first executed. This check generating program is executed by a computer (4) that is remote from the file (5), further enhancing the security of the system.
