Patent EP-4242862-A2 (EP)
Inventor: KHATAMI ZAHRA
IPC: G06F15/173
Filed: 2020-09-04
Abstract: According to one or more embodiments, lookup, insertion, and deletion operations are allowed to continue during actions required for collision remediation. When relocation operations are used to resolve a collision, information encoded in header portions of the hash table entries that store the key-value pairs indicates when the associated key-value pairs are undergoing relocation. This information facilitates continued access to the RKVS during the relocation process by allowing other processes that access the RKVS to handle relocations without failure. Furthermore, when hash table expansion is needed in order to resolve a collision, a second, larger, hash table is allocated, and lookup operations continue on both the old hash table and the new hash table. One or more embodiments further prevent insertion, lookup, and deletion failures in the RKVS using flags, encoded in header information in hash table entries, that reflect the state of the respective key-value pairs in the store.

Patent EP-4254023-A2 (EP)
Inventor: SHARP GARY D
IPC: G02B3/00
Filed: 2019-01-29
Abstract: Hollow optical elements that derive optical power from compound-curved reflective surfaces to produce a desired composite optical power. The reflective surfaces in combination with polarization control, can produce a triple-pass arrangement that determines the optical power. Two functional films, one or both of which are formed (e.g., thermoformed), can be joined at the perimeter to form units that are mechanically robust and therefore preserve optical performance under mechanical load. The air-spaced cavity formed between the two layers is free of birefringence concerns, where polarization control is crucial to contrast. These optical elements can be installed in frames or headsets to form lightweight wearable magnifiers, wide-angle collimators, tele-photo lenses, or for any application requiring optical power. They may be most appropriate for applications where light efficiency is not critical, such as well-lit environments, where the insertion-loss of 1 to 2 stops is not problematic.

Abstract: Zur Messung der Strömungsgeschwindigkeit von Gasen und Flüssigkeiten, insbesondere der Ansaugluft von von Verbrennungsmotoren, werden Vorrichtungen benötigt, die mit einem oder mehreren temperaturabhängigen, zumindest teilweise beheizten Widerständen ausgerüstet sind. Bekannt sind solche Hitzdrahtanemometer, bei denen der beheizte Widerstand hinter einem Schutzchild angeordnet ist, das eine turbulente Strömung erzeugt, weshalb das Meßsignal von Störungen am Lufteinlaß abhängig wird. Diese Abhängigkeit läßt sich vermeiden, wenn zwischen Schutzschild und Widerstand ein Bauelement zur Erzeugung einer laminaren Strömung angeordnet wird, vorzugsweise ein Wabenkörper oder ein Drahtgitter.

Abstract: This invention provides mechanisms that detect the large dynamic range of radiant intensities in the natural. environment, that use novel strategies to calculate an approximation of visual properties of objects, and that represent a scene with an image having a specific dynamic range that is optimal for display media such as photography, television and printing.Photographs and other images are made according to the foregoing mechanisms from lightness fields produced from multiple comparisons between information associated with different segmental areas of an image field. Different comparisons involve different groups of segmental areas, and different groupings have at least one spatial parameter different from other groupings of areas. Comparisons advantageously are made in succession with an ordered sequence of the spatial parameter and employing results of prior comparisons.

Abstract: The process involves polymerising at least one monomer from the group comprising conjugated diolefines having 4 or 5 carbon atoms and an acrylate of an alcohol having 1 to 8 carbon atoms in the presence of water and in the presence of an emulsifier and initiators to give a rubber latex. This latex is agglomerated, for example by adding an acrylate polymer dispersion or a polyvinyl ether dispersion, in such a manner that a mean particle size (d50 value of the integral weight distribution) of from 0.20 to 0.65  mu m is obtained. The agglomeration is followed by a (graft) polymerisation in which the monomers styrene, acrylonitrile and methyl methacrylate are grafted onto the agglomerated rubber latex in emulsion. The process is characterised by the use of potassium salts of saturated or unsaturated fatty acids having 10 to 30 carbon atoms as emulsifier.
