Abstract: The present invention provides systems and methods for conducting electronic transactions in a distributed computing environment. A communications protocol is provided that enables reliable transactional state synchronization for peers participating in a distributed transaction. A transaction processing application is deployed on a local computer system to manage transactions thereon. The local computer system contacts a remote computer system to obtain authorization to execute a transaction. The local computer system initiates a failure-recovery job that is operable to automatically resent status signals and other information to the remote system if the communication with the remote system exhibits certain predefined fault conditions. The remote system is able to dynamically adjust the definition of the predefined fault conditions. If the transaction concludes without triggering the predefined fault conditions, the failure-recovery job is cancelled. The transaction processing application may also allow deferred transactions between remote parties. The transaction processing application maintains a record of the transactions performed by the consumer on the consumer's local system. Upon the occurrence of predefined conditions, transactional records are sent to a remote vendor or clearinghouse. The vendor or clearinghouse can manage the risk it bears by setting the predefined conditions appropriately. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A small portable generator for generating a single-phase AC voltage under PWM control is subject to output voltage fluctuations under a heavy load. With a view to reducing such output voltage fluctuations, it is intended to provide a portable generator (100) which rectifies an AC voltage generated by an AC generator (50) with a DC-voltage-generating circuit (110) using thyristors to charge a DC-power-source unit (120), and converts the DC output voltage of the DC-power-source unit (120) with an inverter circuit (130) into a single-phase AC voltage to be supplied, the portable generator (100) being provided with a constant-voltage-control unit (500) which effects control to keep the DC voltage of the DC-power-source unit (120) substantially constant by detecting the voltage of the DC-power-source unit (110) and controlling the continuity angle of the thyristors (111) in the DC-power-source unit (120), and at the same time effects control to advance the start of continuity of the thyristors (111) when the amperage flowing to the inverter circuit (130) becomes great. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Oxygen and nitrogen are produced by cryogenic separation in which at least a portion (112) of feed air is introduced to a first (130) of at least three distillation columns (130, 164, 166). An oxygen-lean stream (132) from or near the top of the first column (130) is at least partially condensed in a reboiler-condenser (141; 135) of the second or third column (164; 166) to provide reflux for the first column. Oxygen-enriched liquid (168) from the bottom of the first column (130) is fed to the second or third column (164; 166). Nitrogen enriched liquid (154), which can be a portion (150) of the condensed oxygen-lean stream from the first column (130), is fed to the second column(164). Oxygen-enriched liquid bottoms (160) from the second column (164) is fed to the third column (166) and nitrogen-rich vapour overheads (194; 182) are withdrawn from the second and third columns (164; 166). A liquid oxygen-rich stream (173) from the third column (130) is elevated in pressure (173) and warmed (110), at least in part, by indirect heat exchange with a pressurized stream (116) having a nitrogen content greater than or equal to that in the feed air. The pressurized stream is cooled without being subjected to distillation and is fed to any one or combination of the three columns (130, 164, 166).

Abstract: Substrate for (opto)-electronic devices is made by transferring a seed layer (2) onto a support (12) by molecular adhesion at the bonding interface, epitaxial growth of a useful layer (16) to thickness less than 10, preferably less than 5, microns on the seed layer, and applying stresses to detach the combined seed and useful layers from the support at the bonding surface. Detachment of the combined seed layer (2) from the support (12) is achieved by applying mechanical, thermal, electrostatic or laser irradiation stress. The coefficient of thermal expansion of the support material is 0.7-3 times that of the useful layer (16). The seed layer (2) can adapt to the thermal expansion of the support (12) and the useful layer (16), and has crystalline parameters such that epitaxial growth of the useful layer (16) on the seed layer (2) is produced with a concentration of dislocations in the useful layer (16) less than 10 power 7 per square cm. At least one bonding layer (10, 11) can be interposed between the seed layer (2) and the support (12). The seed layer (2) is removed from a source substrate (6) at a pre-breaking region (8) produced by implanting atomic species in the source substrate (6) to a depth corresponding to the thickness of the source substrate (6). Dissociation of the seed layer (2) and the source substrate (6) is produced by thermal treatment, mechanical stress and/or chemical attack.

Abstract: An improved incandescent holder assembly is disclosed. The assembly is characterised by a novel biasing means with two downwardly extending arms, which are located around the pinch portion of the bulb. The biasing means has an outwardly extending end portion, which when depressed, causes the two arms to open outwards, away from said pinch portion so that the biasing means does not foul against the pinch portion, nor does the pinch portion obstruct the spring action of said biasing means. The radially inward force developed as result of the opening of the downwardly extending arms is approximately 75 % higher as compared to the prior art assemblies making the lamp assembly of the present invention more rigid and strong.
