Abstract: The invention concerns a method for controlling an electromechanical calliper of a disc brake system, which consists in determining a pad/ brake disc contact position ( theta f0) and at each disc brake release phase in controlling an electric motor so as to push back a piston away from the brake disc up to a first target position ( theta target 1) spaced apart from the contact position ( theta f0) by a first predefined amount such that the electromechanical calliper does not substantially exert any brake application force on the brake pads, and then in controlling the electric motor so as to move forward the piston from the first target position towards the brake disc up to a second target position ( theta target 2) spaced apart from the contact position ( theta f0) by a second predefined amount, less than the first predefined amount. The second target position is a standby position for a next application/release cycle of the disc brake. The second predefined amount is selected so as to obtain a minimum residual braking torque at the end of the current release phase and a minimum response time of the disc brake for the next application/release cycle.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a motor vehicle comprising an internal combustion engine and a first electronic control unit ( 48 ) for controlling the engine depending on the setting of a manual throttle, an electronic control unit ( 45 ) for controlling the transmission, depending on a set position of a manual gear selector ( 46 ). The invention is characterized in that one of the control units is disposed, with fed-in parameters and thus at least knowledge of the target speed of the vehicle, the surrounding topology and the throttle opening position, to reduce the throttle opening, in those cases where the vehicle, relative to the target speed, has a speed below target speed and gravity can subsequently accelerate the vehicle. In a similar manner, the kinetic energy of the vehicle is used, in those cases where the vehicle has an above target speed and gravity can subsequently retard the vehicle.

Abstract: A system for dispensing pressurized gas is provided which includes a pressurized gas source, a receiving tank, a gas flow line connected between the gas source and the receiving tank, a valve for initiating and terminating flow of gas between the gas source and the receiving tank, an electronic controller, and temperature and pressure sensors for sensing temperature and pressure of gas inside the receiving tank. The electronic controller stores a tank rated density and the temperature and pressure of gas and periodically calculates a density of the gas in the receiving tank based on the temperature and pressure. The electronic controller periodically compares the density of the gas with the tank rated density and initiates flow of gas through the valve when the density in the receiving tank is below the rated density and terminates flow of gas through the valve when the density reaches the tank rated density.

Abstract: A tiered distribution service is provided in a content delivery network (CDN) having a set of surrogate origin (namely, "edge") servers organized into regions and that provide content delivery on behalf of participating content providers, wherein a given content provider operates an origin server. According to the invention, a cache hierarchy is established in the CDN comprising a given edge server region and either (a) a single parent region, or (b) a subset of the edge server regions. In response to a determination that a given object request cannot be serviced in the given edge region, instead of contacting the origin server, the request is provided to either the single parent region or to a given one of the subset of edge server regions for handling, preferably as a function of metadata associated with the given object request. The given object request is then serviced, if possible, by a given CDN server in either the single parent region or the given subset region. The original request is only forwarded on to the origin server if the request cannot be serviced by an intermediate node.

Abstract: A system for allocating resource in a cellular communication system (200) having cell specific spreading codes. An interference processor (239) identifies that a detrimental interference relationship exists between a first group of subscriber units (211, 215, 219). A code allocator (241) allocates a common spreading code to the first group of subscriber units (211, 215, 219) thereby creating a shared resource. A resource allocator (243) then allocates resource of the shared resource between the subscriber units of the first group (211, 215, 219) and resource of the cell specific spreading code to the remaining subscriber units. Joint detection is used for the subscriber units (211, 215, 219) of the first group of subscriber units whereby inter-cell interference is significantly reduced. The invention is applicable to a plurality of communication systems using cell separation spreading codes and in particular to UMTS TDD communication systems.
