Abstract: A collaboration system that integrates separate real-time
and asynchronous networks - the former for real-time audio
and video, and the latter for control signals and textual,
graphical and other data - in a manner which closely
approximates the experience of face-to-face collaboration.
These capabilities are achieved by exploiting a variety of
hardware, software and networking technologies in a manner
that preserves the quality and integrity of
audio/video/data and other multimedia information, even
after wide area transmission, and at a significantly
reduced networking cost as compared to what would be
required by presently known approaches. The system
architecture is readily scalable to the largest enterprise
network environments. It accommodates differing levels of
collaborative capabilities available to individual users
and permits high-quality audio and video capabilities to
be readily superimposed onto existing personal computers
and workstations (12) and their interconnecting LANs (10)
and WANs (15). In the case of a plurality of
geographically dispersed LANs (10) interconnected by a WAN
(15), the demands made on the WAN are significantly
reduced by employing multi-hopping techniques, including
avoiding the unnecessary decompression of data at
intermediate hops, as well as video mosaicing and cut-and-paste
technology.

Abstract: An apparatus for invalidating redundant entries in
an N-way set associative branch target address cache
(BTAC) for the same branch instruction is disclosed. An
index portion of an instruction cache fetch address is
applied to the BTAC to select a set of N ways therein.
Control logic detects a condition in which more than one
of the N ways of the selected set has a valid tag that
matches the tag portion of the fetch address. A flag is
set to indicate the occurrence of the condition, and the
fetch address is stored in a register. The control logic
subsequently invalidates all but one of the N ways having
a valid tag that matches the fetch address tag.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne une feuille composite flexible. La feuille composite flexible (FCS) comprend une membrane, un substrat couplé à la membrane, et une pluralité d'arêtes couplées entre la membrane et le substrat. Selon l'invention: un mouvement vibratoire est induit à partir du flux vers au moins un segment d'une membrane s'étendant sur une distance s; le mouvement vibratoire est réfléchi par au moins un segment de la membrane vers le flux; et une diminution des fluctuations est provoquée par le gradient de pression du flux et la vitesse d'écoulement libre U à toutes les fréquences excepté autour de la fréquence f, avec f   U/s. Lorsqu'elle est couplée à une ailette d'échange thermique, la FCS peut améliorer le transfert de chaleur sans augmenter la chute de pression de flux. La FCS a d'autres applications de régulation de flux, telles que la diminution de la traînée lorsqu'elle est couplée à une aile d'avion.

Abstract: A motor driven transporting carriage (13) moves along guides (12,14) and has clamps to hold the leading end of the film strip (5) or the grid-like residue (10) of a film strip. A pair of powered transporting rolls (29,30) is positioned close to an inlet into a shredder (3) for film recovery. The carriage (13) may be moved by either: a) a motor (21) mounted on the carriage which drives cogs engaging with racks on the guides (12,14); b) by a fixed motor drive which drives endless chains (25) to which the transporting carriage is connected via a chain (27); c) by a drive mounted on the carriage which drives cogs over which toothed belts or roller chains are guided between the outlet from the thermoforming machine and the inlet to the mill. Drive units may be electrically or pneumatically powered and move synchronously with the conveyer (11) of the thermoforming machine. Transporting rolls (29,30) also move synchronously with the conveyer and form pinch rolls with pins, naps, ribs or a rough surface. The position of one roll (30) can be varied through an angle relative to the other. The horizontal guide rails (14) run into vertical guide rails at the transporting roll end. The initial guide rails (12) can be swiveled as a unit or comprise hinged parts movable relative to each other. A sensor on the carriage records the leading end of the film strip (5) and controls clamp closure. A fixed sensor located in front of the carriage records the presence of the latter and stops its movement before initiating clamp opening. An independent claim is included for a process for operating the film transfer machine in which take-up of the leading end of the film strip or grid-like waste film strip is recorded by a sensor, the thermoforming machine conveyer is stopped, the clamp operated to grip the film and over the remaining part of the travel to the transporting rolls the carriage and conveyer move synchronously.
