Title: Scalability breakpoint calculator for a software product
Filed: 2011-05-26
Abstract: During a technique for estimating a scalability breakpoint of a software product, performance load tests of the software product are performed with different numbers of simulated concurrent users. For a given number of simulated concurrent users, a performance load test may include an associated set of transactions that are executed by the software product. Furthermore, during the performance load tests performance metrics for the transactions in the associated sets of transactions are measured. Then estimated total performance metrics for the transactions in the associated sets of transactions for the different numbers of simulated concurrent users are determined based on the measured performance metrics and the associated sets of transactions. Next, using the determined estimated total performance metrics, the estimated scalability breakpoint is calculated.

Title: Extraction device and method
Inventor: HUSSMANN PETER
IPC: A23F5/26
Filed: 1983-01-18
Granted: 1987-05-07
Abstract: The extractive materials are extracted in counter-current, from a finally pulverized substance in an extractive phase with extraction solutions having different concentrations in a flat filtering bed extractor (2). In an additional cold extraction phase, the solution with the highest concentration obtained in the main extraction phase is further concentrated by passing it on the ground extraction substance (21). The extraction residue obtained in the additional extraction phase is finally pulverized (7) in presence of a high concentration extraction solution obtained in the main extraction phase. The main extraction phase is followed by a final extraction phase wherein the counter-current extraction is continued, after a previous heating (16) or after a prolonged resting period, by means of relatively low concentration solutions. This extraction method is essentially used to obtain highly flavoured extracts from natural aromatic substances such as coffee, and the cold extraction phase allows to obtain an improvement of the yield while preserving the aroma to its highest level.

Abstract: A fiber optic frequency shifter includes an optical fiber (24) having two modes of propagation, each with a different propagation velocity, and a coupler for applying time varying stress to the fiber at first and second locations on the fiber, with a predetermined phase relationship between the stress at the two locations. The coupler may include a plurality of discrete coupling elements, such as ridges (84, 86) or driving electrodes (163, 164, 165, 166) and a driver to drive the coupling elements in accordance with driving signals having the predetermined phase difference, or the coupler may include an acoustic wave generator (118, 120, 122) coupled to the fiber (114) for applying to the fiber an actual travelling acoustic wave. With the discrete distributed coupling elements, the frequency of the driving signals and the phase relationship between the driving signals is such as to create a simulated travelling acoustic wave in the fiber (24). The real or apparent travelling acoustic wave in the fiber causes light propagating through the fiber to be coupled from one of the fiber modes to another of the fiber modes, and to cause the coupled light to be frequency shifted relative to the initial light. The wavelength of the real or apparent acoustic wave is approximately equal to an integer multiple of the fiber beat length to cause constructive coupling of the frequency shifted light.
