Patent EP-1026597-A2 (EP)
Inventor: CROSLAND ANDREW
IPC: G06F13/28
Filed: 2000-01-21
Abstract: A bus bridge for a computer system for bridging first and second buses
includes a shift and accumulate unit. The shift and accumulate unit includes a shifter
having an input connected to receive bytes from one of the first and second buses and
an output providing a selectable shift to the received bytes. The shift and accumulate
unit also includes an accumulator having an input connected to receive the output of
the shifter and providing accumulation of selectable bits of the shifted bytes, the
accumulator having an output for supplying realigned bytes to be passed to the other
of the first and second buses. The combination of the shifter and the accumulator
permits a desired amount of shift to be combined with the accumulation of selected
bits or bytes to realign sets of bytes from one bus and to form sets of bytes for the
other bus. Burst transfer is also possible by operating the shift and accumulate unit to
operate in successive cycles for successive sets of input bytes from one of the buses.

Abstract: A method for controlling the starting, stopping and operation of an AC motor
(16) is provided. Each winding of the AC motor (16) is interconnected to an AC
source (18) by a thyristor switch (42, 44, 46) and a bypass contactor (50, 52, 54) for
providing voltage and current to the AC motor (16). The method includes the steps of
sequentially firing a pair of tyristor switches (42, 44, 46) to bring the AC motor (16)
to full operating speed. Once at operating speed, the bypass contactors (50, 52, 54)
are closed. Upon detection of a voltage drop across a thyristor switch (42, 44, 46), the
thyristor switch (42, 44, 46) is fired immediately to transfer motor current from the
bypass contactor (50, 52, 54) to the thyristor switch (42, 44, 46) in order to maintain
voltage and current to the AC motor (16).

Abstract: A disposable cup lid is provided for placement onto a drinking cup having a substantially circular cup rim which lies substantially in a single plane. The cup lid comprises a substantially circular and substantially planar top surface, and a downwardly facing cup rim engaging recess formed near the outer periphery thereof. The cup rim engaging recess extends from 300° to 360° around the periphery, and is defined at its outer side by a substantially circular, downwardly depending apron, at its inner side by a first downwardly directed recess sidewall, and at its top by a top wall between the downwardly depending apron and the downwardly directed recess sidewall. The downwardly depending apron extends 360° around the periphery. There is an arcuate portion of the top surface which extends radially outwardly to the downwardly depending apron, and which has a radially directed axis of symmetry. A depressed "U"-shaped hinge is formed in the top surface in the region thereof occupied by the arcuate portion, and the "U"-shaped hinge is oriented so as to be perpendicular to the axis of symmetry. A fault line is stamped into the top surface in the arcuate portion, in a location opposed to the "U"-shaped hinge. The fault line is spaced radially inwardly from the downwardly directed apron by a distance which is at least equal to the width of the top wall of the cup rim engaging recess; and the fault line defines an outer extremity of a tear-back flap which, when torn back, will fold backwardly at the "U"-shaped hinge and will thereby define a drink-through opening in the top surface. Also, an upwardly extending lifting stub is formed in the arcuate portion of the top surface in a location thereof between the first fault line and the "U" shaped hinge. The dimensions of the lifting stub are such that it may be easily grasped between the thumb and a finger of an adult hand, so that the tear-back flap may be torn back by a grasping and lifting action of the lifting stub, and so as to provide access to the drink-through opening.

Abstract: An method of arranging address decoders in an improved manner in an integrated circuit memory is discussed. In the integrated circuit memory the address lines extending from the address circuitry of the integrated circuit memory are connected to address decoders, each word line of the memory being connected to an address decoder. The address decoders are connected to the address lines in a certain combination such that only one f the address lines is connected to adjacent address decoders. When connected in this manner the average propagation delay of each address line is substantially uniform. By reducing the maximum propagation delay in comparison with previously known arrangements of address decoders the speed at which the memory can be operated is increased. <IMAGE>

Title: System for automatically routing calls to call center agents in an agent surplus condition based on delay probabilities
Inventor: FISCHER THOMAS S
IPC: H04M3/42
Filed: 2000-12-05
Abstract: The system for automatically routing calls to call center agents provides the
call center administrator with an automatic agent assignment paradigm which
functions to automatically increase the efficiency of assigning multiple skill agents
to contacts. The presence of an agent surplus condition provides the present
system with a plurality of choices in the assignment of the agent to process a
presently received contact. Since the agents who staff the call center include
multiple skill agents, the system must make a determination of not only which of
the available agents is the best equipped to handle the present contact, but also
how that assignment statistically effects the efficiency of successive assignments
of agents to contacts next received, based upon the past performance of the
agents and the call center. Since the traffic load presented to the call center tends
to be highly variable and of content that is difficult to predict, the present system
provides several automatic agent assignment paradigms that each have a
statistically different impact on the performance of the call center, based upon the
quality and quantity of the incoming calls.
