Abstract: A system for performing on-line reconfiguration of a disk array in which a source logical volume is reconfigured to a destination logical volume. Disk array configuration is invoked if a new physical drive is inserted, or a drive is removed. Reconfiguration can also be performed if the user desires to change the configuration of a particular logical volume, such as its stripe size. The disk array reconfiguration is run as a background task by firmware on a disk controller board. The reconfigure task first moves data from the source logical volume to a posting memory such as RAM memory. The reconfigure task operates one stripe at a time, with the stripe size being that of the destination logical volume. Once a stripe of data is moved into the posting memory, it is written back to corresponding locations in the destination logical volume. The reconfigure task continues until all data in the source logical volume have been moved into the destination logical volume. While the reconfigure task is working on a particular logical volume, data remains accessible to host write and read requests. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Opaquely pigmented or thick filmed powder coatings for heat sensitive substrates, such as wood, wood composites, for example, medium density fiber board, and plastics, that can be fully cured, especially near the substrate, through the incorporation of a dual cure system in the powder comprising a thermal initiator, such as a peroxide, along with a UV initiator. The UV initiator cures the surface, while the thermal initiator cures at the substrate. Surprisingly, virtually no pregelation occurs during the heated melt and flow out step prior to UV curing. Consequently, the hardened film finish formed on the surface exhibits exceptional smoothness which is comparable to that of traditional UV curable powders. The hardened film finish is also fully cured throughout and exhibits exceptional adhesion to the substrate which cannot be achieved with traditional UV curable powders that have been pigmented. Although the dual cure system includes a thermal aspect, these powder coatings are especially suited for coating heat sensitive substrates. The dual thermal and UV curable powders still cure at significantly lower temperatures and significantly faster rates than traditional heat curable powders to make them safe for coating heat sensitive substrates.

Abstract: A system for tracking an object (for example tracking an automobile as it moves over streets) using an electronic map and a GPS receiver. The GPS receiver accepts data from a number of satellites and determines a GPS derived position and velocity. Based on the previous position of the object, the GPS derived position, the velocity, the DOP and the continuity of satellites for which data is received, the system determines whether the GPS data is reliable. If the GPS data is reliable, the previous position of the object is updated to the GPS derived position. The updated position is then matched to a map of roads.

Abstract: The improvement to the gas meter comprises a mechanism for controlling when the gas control valve should be shut-off and thereby alleviate the drain upon the battery which is used to drive the electronic circuitry within the gas meter. The gas meter comprises a base meter module 1 which has associated therewith a add-on module 2 which when connected to the base meter module 1 communicates to the base meter module via an optical interface 7, 8. The add-on module 2 includes a central processing unit 9 which is arranged to calculate a volume index threshold shut-off value which is transmitted to the base meter module 1 and is stored within the control system 5. During meter operation, the base meter module 1 monitors the volume index value and when that value is equal to or greater than the value stored in the control system, the base meter module 1 causes the gas valve 6 to operate and thereby close the valve and shut-off the gas supply to the meter. This method of monitoring volume index in the base meter module uses less power than continually transferring information across greater periodicity and therefore the battery life is extended. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A vacuum drum assembly for a printing machine comprises a drum having an array of passageways (40) distributed along its length and around its periphery to permit air to flow from outside the drum to inside the drum in response to reduced air pressure inside the drum, and an array of valve members (52), each valve member being movable between a closed position in which that valve member restricts at least one of the passageways and an open positioning which the restriction of that passageway or those passageways is reduced. The arrangement is such that, when a partial area of the drum is wrapped with a sheet of material, at least some of the valves for the passageways adjacent the edges of that area are open, and the valves for the passageways which are not covered by the sheet and are not adjacent the edges of that area are closed. The open area of the drum is regulated such that it is small in regions where there is no paper. Accordingly, the open area of the drum is adapted to the shape and size of the paper and the position of the paper on the drum, whilst minimizing the required suction flow. A duplex printing machine comprises two such vacuum drum assemblies with their drums parallel. the air pressure inside the drums is reduced and the drums are counter-rotated. Material to be printed on is fed to the first drum so that the material can be held on the first drum by vacuum and rotated therewith, and a first print head prints on one side of the material. The material is then released from the first drum in a direction towards the second drum so that the material can be held on the second drum by vacuum and rotated therewith. A second print head then prints on the material on the second drum. The material is then released from the second drum. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A microbicidal organic polymer material for use in manufacturing of contact lenses, condoms, surgical sutures and gloves, medical examination devices and similar uses is provided by polymers to which is tightly adsorbed a disinfectant organic dye. Many polymers such as polyvinyl chloride and acrylic polymers show exceptional avidity for a number of microbicides, of acidic, basic, aromatic and/or hydrophobic character such as methylene blue and gentian violet. Consequently, devices constructed of these polymeric materials release no free dye to an aqueous solution. The material is generally a natural or synthetic polymer that releases no particles or fines into wounds or body orifices. Presence of adsorbed disinfectant organic dye allows the polymer to inhibit microbial growth in a number of different situations. Several common microbes are killed by being incubated in the present of an embodiment of the invention which contains a combination of methylene blue and gentian violet.
