Abstract: A gateway provides communication of tightly coupled XA transactions to a server hosting a DBMS and makes efficient use of domain socket pairs to implement demultiplexing in the gateway. The gateway includes a TCP/IP listener process which accepts connection requests from a transaction manager. Logical agents represent the application connection and are managed by a logical agent scheduler and are passed within the gateway using domain socket pairs. Gateway agents are dedicated to identified tightly coupled XA transactions to provide tightly coupled XA transaction support for DBMS systems which do not provide such support directly. The domain socket pairs in the gateway are assigned to logical agent schedulers and are available in a domain socket pool. A wait queue is provided to buffer logical agents when connection to the server is not available or where there are no domain socket pairs available in the domain socket pool. The wait queue is itself implemented as a domain socket pair.

Title: Benzotriazole uv absorbers having enhanced durability
Inventor: DETLEFSEN ROBERT EDWARD
IPC: C09D7/12
Filed: 2000-01-19
Abstract: Benzotriazole UV absorbers which are substituted at the 5-position of the benzo ring by an electron withdrawing group exhibit enhanced durability and very low loss rates when incorporated into automotive coatings. This is particularly the case when the 3-position of the phenyl ring is also substituted by phenyl or phenylalkyl such as a-cumyl.  Compounds where the 5-position of the benzo ring are substituted by perfluoroalkyl such as trifluoromethyl are particularly of interest for both their enhanced durability and for their excellent solubility and excellent color properties in some thermoplastic compositions.

Filed: 1998-08-06
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for sticking two halves (23, 24) of a dvd (digital versatile disc). Said halves are held at a distance from each other so that a gap forms between them. The adhesive (36) is then introduced into said gap and is spread over both halves. The invention is characterised in that the adhesive is introduced via the central hole in the DVD by means of e.g., L-shaped metering needles (63) which are pivotably guided in a central pin, said pin dipping into the central hole (51), or flexible plastic needles which are guided in a guiding tube in such a way that they can move. Introducing the adhesive via the central hole means that the adhesive can flow freely out of the metering needle as the DVD halves (23, 24) turn. There is no build-up of adhesive in front of the metering needle and the sticking process can continue until the spinning process is complete, without any interruption of the application of adhesive.

Title: Method and apparatus for adaptive closed loop power control using open loop measurements
Inventor: PRESCOTT TOBIN A
IPC: H04B7/005
Filed: 1998-08-07
Abstract: A method and apparatus for controlling a parameter associated with a first signal (410) transmitted from a first station (120) to a second station (124) in a communication system (100) monitors a second signal (420) transmitted from the second station to the first station (120) to determine a propagation state associated with the transmitted signals (410, 420). A loop gain is adjusted based on the propagation state. The loop gain is used to adjust the size of commands used to adjust (i.e., increase or decrease) the parameter being controlled. If the propagation state is a quiescent state, the loop gain is set to one. If the propagation state is an active state, the loop gain is set to some value greater than one thereby increasing the size of the commands (555, 655) used to control the parameter. In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the controlled parameter is a transmit power level of the first signal (410).

Title: Carton dispensing machine
Inventor: BAUMAN BARRY B
IPC: B65G69/16
Filed: 2000-06-16
Abstract: A dispensing machine is used to dispense rectangularly shaped containers including milk cartons and the like, preferably of a size ranging from approximately one-half liter to approximately two liters or even larger. The machine can be used to dispense various products including juices, soft drinks, milk, candy and virtually any product that can be suitably contained in a square rectangular container. The machine has a vertical channel containing paddles where each paddle supports only some of the containers in the channel when the channel is filled with containers. Since the containers have flexible side walls, the paddles move simultaneously to gently lower the containers one space at a time when the machine is activated. Also, when the containers are in the vertical channel, the lowermost container is not subjected to the weight of all of the containers above it when the channel is filled with containers. This arrangement prevents containers in the vertical channel from being crushed by containers located above it. In a further embodiment, a dispensing machine has three sets of shelves, each set having a vertical channel with control means so that three different types of products can be dispensed from one machine.

Abstract: An Adaptive Off-state (AO) control method (55) for use in conjunction with a suspension system (10) including a controllable damper (22) interconnecting relatively moveable members (12, 14) to reduce the transmission of vibrational forces therebetween. Such suspension systems (10) are switchable between alternative on- and an off-state in accordance with a primary control method (53) and/or a secondary override control method (59). Sensors (48, 52) monitor the parameters of the suspension system (10), such as the displacement, velocity, and acceleration of the moveable members (12, 14). Damper command signals (107) are provided to the damper (22) in the on-state (116) to adjust the damping characteristics thereof. In the off state, the damping signal in conventional systems is approximately zero or a constant relatively low magnitude. According to the present adaptive off-state control method (55), the off-state damping signal (109) to the controllable damper (22) is modulated over time to make the off state damping a function of the system inputs. In a preferred embodiment, the modulation is a function of the real time or time-averaged input disturbances to the system (10). In an alternative embodiment, the modulation is derived from a user switch (57) that imparts a user variable Off-State Gain (OSG) to the off-state damping signal (109) based on operator perceived ride characteristics.
