Title: Multi-processor computer systems having shared memory and private cache memories
Inventor: CALLANDER MICHAEL A
IPC: G06F15/16
Filed: 1989-06-26
Granted: 1993-09-07
Abstract: ABSTRACT      Multi-processor systems are often implemented using a common system bus as the communication mechanism between CPU, memory, and I/O adapters.  It is also common to include features on each CPU module, such as cache memory, that enhance the performance of the execution of instructions in the CPU.  Many architectures require that the hardware employ a mechanism by which the data in the individual CPU cache memories is kept consistent with data in main memory and with data in other cache memories.  One such method involves each CPU monitoring transactions on the system bus, and taking appropriate action when a transaction appears on the bus which would render data in the CPU's cache incoherent.  If the CPU uses queues to hold records of incoming transaction information until it can service them, the bus interface must guarantee that the queued items are processed by the cache in the correct order.  If this is not done, certain types of shared data protocols fail to operate correctly.  The present invention describes a method by which hardware can guarantee the serialization of transactions requiring service by the CPU cache.  The serialization method described guarantees that shared memory protocols operate correctly.

Abstract: ABSTRACT            A method and an apparatus for avoiding, in hot-dip galvanizing of an object, the eventuality that a coating formed on the object in the galvanizing process contains undesirable impurities from the bath. To this end, one or more flows of molten and pure zinc are, in a container, provided which are directed towards a surface region, i.e. the working surface, where the object passes on being immersed in and raised from the bath, respectively. A surface flow is caused to pass from the one edge region of the container, to its other edge region, any possible impurities located on the surface of the bath being displaced from the working surface.            The apparatus comprises a pump which, via a discharge pipe supplies molten zinc to a gutter in the upper region of a container. Opposing the gutter, the container is provided with a channel. The gutter and channel, respectively, mutually oppose an upper defining edge over which molten zinc passes. The upper defining edge of the gutter is, as a rule, located higher than the defining edge of the channel.

Abstract: A method of processing digital data in a digitised image matrix in order to detect the positions of any sharp intensity variations present in adjacent ones of the pixels representing said image, the method comprising the steps of comparing the intensity of each primary pixel with those of the secondary pixels which surround it, calculating whether said primary pixel can be classified as having  a constant, an edge-like or a corner-like value, and collating this information to give positions of both edge and corner features which are present in said image matrix.      The processing method can be used for example in detecting images, for instance in a burglar alarm system or for the cytological scanning of cell material.

Abstract: FN: 42993CAN2A FALSE ALARM MINIMIZATION AND DIRECTION        DETERMINATION METHODS                 Abstract of the Disclosure Markers in different portions of the interrogation zone of an electromagnetic article surveillance system produce signals with waveforms of different character.  In one embodiment, a false alarm minimization method determines the character of the waveform of the signal induced in the detection antenna.  A requirement that signals with waveforms of different character be sensed provides greater confidence that the marker is passing through, as opposed to being near one portion of, the interrogation zone.  Also, false alarms produced by stationary objects such as metallic door and window frames are eliminated.  In another embodiment, the direction in which the marker passes through the interrogation zone is determined.

Abstract: DUAL STRUCTURE TURBINE BLADE          ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE           A single crystal turbine blade has a portion of its attachment section layered with a fine grained, polycrystalline alloy.  The blade is prepared by casting a single crystal body with an undersized attachment section, and then layering the attachment section with the polycrystalline superalloy to form a composite structure. Layering is preferably accomplished by plasma spraying the body with the superalloy, and hot isostatically compacting the sprayed superalloy to minimize porosity.  The composite structure is then heat treated to develop an optimized microstructure in the dual alloy attachment section.  The polycrystalline material in the attachment section may be machined to a firtree shape for mounting in a turbine wheel.  The resulting turbine blade has improved life resulting from reduced low cycle, low temperature fatigue susceptibility of, and crack growth in, the composite attachment section.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a system and a method of extraction liquid from a humid mass by compressing same. The system comprises a conduit of linear, circular or other shape through which the humid mass is displaced. The conduit is of rectangular cross-section, which cross-section can be constant or variable. Further, the conduit has perforated side walls along at least a liquid extraction working section of the conduit. The system further comprises elements which cause an axial pressure at the interior of the humid mass as well as a mechanism to displace at least one of the perforated side walls to convey the humid mass along the working section of the conduit in such a way as to generate between the interior surface of the perforated side walls and the humid mass a dynamic friction force which defines a pressure zone which is less than the axial pressure created by the pressure creating elements. This difference in pressure causes the liquid in the humid mass to flow out of the mass in a direction substantially transverse to the displacement direction of the humid mass and out through the perforated side walls of the conduit.
