IPC: G01M3/22
Filed: 1989-01-31
Abstract: A method and apparatus for hydrostatically testing connections between segments of pipe (10, 12) whereby pressurized hydrostatic test fluid is selectively applied to the connection such that the pressures are principally applied in the vicinity of the radial orifices (58) leading into the sealing elements (17) of the connection and not radially to the inner or outer annular surfaces of the connection in the vicinity of the sealing elements of the connection which would tend to substantially affect the bearing pressure or the sealing elements. In addition, a method and apparatus for selectively appllying pressurized hydrostatic test fluid such that the pressures are applied to those areas where the bearing pressure of the sealing elements of the connection is sensitive to the applied pressures, thus manipulating the bearing pressure and controlling the sealing capacity of the connection during hydrostatic leak testing.

Abstract: There is no pertinent method for storing two dimensional objects, e.g. characters, figures, drawings, or illustrations except printing on paper. An object of the invention is to provide a method of compressing inputting two-dimensional object, compressing the two-dimensional data in a short time to a small amount of data and reproducing in any size at any position. This invention reads two dimensional object, e.g. characters, figures, drawings or illustrations optically, extracts peripheral points from a binary image , approximates the peripheral lines by Fluency functions, reckons curvatures at all points, and finds joints. The peripheral points series are divided by the joints. The lines between two neighboring joints are approximated by straight lines, arcs and free curves in this order. The free curves are approximated by linear combinations of Fluency functions. Adoption of joints greatly alleviates the quantity of data. Approximation by Fluency functions heightens the quality of the reproduced objects.

IPC: G06F9/50
Filed: 1994-04-12
Abstract: A method is employed for pre-assignment and prescheduling of tasks that enables allocation across multiple physical processors arranged in a variety of architectures. The method comprises the steps of: constructing a DFG of tasks to be performed to provide a solution for a problem; determining cost values for each task and the overall problem, such cost values taking into account a target multiprocessor architecture and factors such as elapsed task execution times. The method pre-assigns the tasks to logical processors and assures that inter-dependent tasks are executable by logical processors that are within required communications delay criteria of each other. The assigning action attempts to arrive at a minimal cost value for all tasks comprising the problem. The pre-assigned tasks are then pre-scheduled based upon a performance criteria and are converted to machine code. The machine code is then deployed to physical processors in the target multi-processor architecture. The deploying action maps the logical processors' pre-assigned programs (comprising assigned tasks) onto physical processors, using data regarding the multi-processor architecture and the current utilization of the physical processors in the architecture, all while assuring that inter-dependent tasks are mapped so as to fulfil interprocessor communication delay criteria.

Abstract: A differential switch (10) includes a switching bar (32) arranged as a contact-carrying rotary shaft (30, 26), a summer transformer (46) associated with a triggering relay (54) with automatic rearming, and a control mechanism (34) with a handle (64) and latch (88).

The relay (54) transmits the triggering order to the latch (88) via a triggering lever (98) associated with an intermediate mechanical amplifier. This results in a mechanism with three stages for stepping down forces between the relay (54) and the bar (32), which makes it possible to reduce the triggering energy. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The invention provides a technique for optimizing transmission conditions to achieve large-capacity transmission, and also provides peripheral techniques for the practical implementation of optical multiplexing that makes large-capacity transmission possible. A transmission characteristic is measured in a transmission characteristic measuring section (53), and control of signal light wavelength in a tunable light source (44), control of the amount of prechirping, control of the amount of dispersion compensation, and/or control of optical power are performed to achieve the best transmission characteristic. Wavelength dispersion is deliberately introduced by a dispersion compensator, to reduce nonlinear effects. A tunable laser is used to optimize signal light wavelength for each optical amplification repeater section. Peripheral techniques, such as drift compensation, clock extraction, optical signal channel identification, clock phase stabilization, etc., are provided for the implementation of optical multiplexing.

Abstract: A frame time monitoring system (100) tracks the time in which data frames (11) reside within a fiber optic switch (30) for a fiber optic network. The network switch (30) transfers data frames (11) from source ports (33) to destination ports (33). The frame time monitoring system comprises a digital signal processor (DSP) (100a), which is configured by a software program (108) to implement a plurality of timers (164) relative to frames (11) to be routed through the switch (30) from a source port (33) to a destination port (33). The processor (100a) operates as an incrementer and is configured to output a series of sequential timer states (144) corresponding to each particular frame (11). The timer states (144) are generally indicative of the amount of time in which the frame (11) has resided in the switch (30). A logic network (100b) of logic gates is connected to the processor (100a) to receive and interpret the timer states (144). The logic network (100b) has frame busy (FBSY) and delete mechanisms (204, 207) for determining elapse of respective FBSY and delete time periods based upon the timer states (144). The FBSY and delete mechanisms (204, 207) generate respective FBSY and delete signals (146, 147) after the elapse of the periods, which can vary for optimization reasons depending upon frame class and type. Thus, in the foregoing configuration, a processor (100a) is utilized as a timing incrementer and logical decisions are allocated to the logic network (100b), resulting in an optimum balance between hardware and software so as to minimize cost, space requirements, and complexity, and maximize frame tracking resolution.
