Title: Adaptive memory controller
Inventor: PARKER THOMAS B
IPC: G06F12/02
Filed: 1993-05-28
Granted: 1995-06-29
Abstract: The operating mode of a memory controller for a random access memory having multiplexed address lines is selected to provide the highest operating speed for the addresses being presented to the memory. Each address supplied to the memory includes a row address and a column address. A page fault detector detects a page fault when the row address changes on successive transfers to the memory and detects a non-page fault when the row address remains the same on successive transfers to the memory. The operating mode is automatically selected in response to the difference between the number of page faults and the number of non-page faults to provide the highest operating speed. When the difference between the number of page faults and the number of non-page faults is equal to or greater than an upper threshold value, the memory mode is set to non-page mode. When the difference between the number of page faults and the number of non-page faults is equal to or less than a lower threshold value, the memory mode is set to page mode.

Patent AU-703103-B2 (AU)
Title: Acid treatment method for siliceous formations
Inventor: ARIAS GINO F DI LULLO
IPC: C09K8/60
Filed: 1995-12-29
Granted: 1999-03-18
Abstract: A method of stimulating production in sandstone formations of oil and gas wells is achieved by using an acid system which slowly dissolves the silicate and clay formations of the sandstone to increase its permeability. The acid system uses phosphonate compounds, including phosphonate acids and the salts and esters thereof, in combination with hydrofluoric acid. The hydrofluoric acid may be provided by hydrolyzing ammonium bifluoride or hydrofluoric acid itself. The phosphonate compounds of the acid systems retard the rate at which the hydrofluoric acid reacts with the clays while enhancing the reaction rate with silica, which comprises the bulk of sandstone formations. This allows more penetration of the formation immediately adjacent to the wellbore. The phosphonate materials also improve the dispersion and suspension properties of the treating solution with silts and fines and improves the complexing capacity of the acids with silicate and alumni complexes.

Title: Apparatus for manufacturing of composite cushioning product
Inventor: GOODRICH DAVID P
IPC: B31D5/00
Filed: 1996-02-08
Granted: 2001-03-29
Abstract: The invention relates to a composite cushioning system for protecting articles, packaged within a box, from damage while being transported in the box. The composite structure includes an expansion sheet of expanded slit sheet, in combination with a separator sheet. The expanded sheet has a slit pattern which produces open cells, preferably of a hexagonal configuration. The separator sheet precludes the nesting of legs and lands of the slit sheet with other slit sheet of the same slit pattern. A variety of combinations of separator sheets and expansion sheets can be used, such as a pair of expansion sheets with a separator sheet between the pair of expansion sheets, or two such pairs of expansion sheets, with or without a separator sheet between the pairs. The separator sheet can be unslit, or tear-perforated or slit to accommodate expansion. Where the separator sheet is slit, the slits preferably produce the same amount of expansion as produced in the expansion sheets. The equipment for expanding the composite uses expansion rollers having Velcro type hooks in a spiral around the rollers such that discontinuation gripping of the expanded material is provided.

Title: Synchronizing timing signals for helical scan recorder
IPC: G11B27/30
Filed: 1990-11-06
Granted: 1993-04-01
Abstract: Method and apparatus are provided for developing a digital timing signal indicative of when a head of a helical scan recorder (30) is positioned over a recorded stripe on magnetic tape (32). The method involves rotating a drum (36) upon which a head is mounted while the magnetic tape (32) is transported past the drum at a speed greater than the nominal speed at which stripes were recorded on the tape. Given the geometry of the system and format of the tape, the head is eventually able to recognize a pattern of digital data. The timing of the recognition of the pattern of digital data is used to determine the precise time, relative to each rotation of the drum (36), that the head ceases to traverse a stripe and the precise time during each rotation of the drum that the head begins to traverse a stripe. The determination of the edges of the digital timing signal is repeated upon every rotation of the drum (36). A servo timing signal for a servo head (also mounted on the drum) is generated in ninty (90) degree phase relationship to the digital timing signal.

Title: Multiplexed digital packet telephone system
IPC: H04J99/00
Filed: 1991-01-16
Granted: 1993-04-01
Abstract: An efficient system for simultaneously conveying a large number of telephone conversations over a much smaller number of relatively low-bandwidth digital communication channels is disclosed. Each incoming telephone speech signal is filtered, periodically sampled, and digitized. An efficient computational speech compression algorithm is applied to transform a sequence of digitized speech samples into a much shorter sequence of compression variables. The compression variable sequence is further processed to construct a minimum-length bit string, and an identifying header is appended to form a packet. Only a few packets containing information on representative background noise are generated during pauses in speech, thereby conserving digital bandwidth. The packets are queued and transmitted asynchronously over the first available serial digital communication channel. Numerical feedback to the compression algorithm is employed which results in the packet size being reduced during periods of high digital channel usage. Packet header information is utilized to establish a "virtual circuit" between sender and receiver.
