Abstract: A device comprising an optical amplifier
including an optical amplifying medium, and first and
second optical filters operatively connected to the
optical amplifier to suppress the wavelength dependence
of gain. The medium has an input end and an output end for
an optical signal. The medium is pumped so that it
provides a gain band. The gain band includes a first
band giving a relatively high gain and noise figure to
the optical signal and a second band giving a relatively
low gain and noise figure to the optical signal. The
first optical filter is connected to the input end of the
medium and has characteristics such that the first
optical filter suppresses the wavelength dependence of
gain in the second band. The second optical filter is
connected to the output end of the medium and has
characteristics such that the second optical filter
suppresses the wavelength dependence of gain in the first
band. This configuration allows suitable suppression of
the wavelength dependence of gain in each optical filter,
thereby providing a low noise figure and high optical
output power.

Abstract: A method and means for exchanging messages between a multitude
of computer systems is provided, whereby the sender system's
memory is used as a buffer for the message to be transferred. 
     The method comprises a first step of writing data into a
portion of the sender system's memory, a second step of
setting an indication signal in the receiver system, and a
third step of performing a remote read access to the data in
the sender system's memory. Thus, the message buffers of prior
art solutions have been replaced by portions of the sender
system's memory. 
     The remote read access is performed by a direct memory adapter
(DMA) in the receiver system, whereby said indication signal
is mapped to the start address of said portion of the sender
system's memory. Because any write access to a remote system's
memory is forbidden, data integrity is preserved.

set in a second register, and the number of matches that occurred

output of a retrieval counter reaching a predetermined value,
the comparison instruction is terminated, whereupon the number
of consecutive matches, the nonmatching data, and an end flag
