Abstract: La présente invention concerne un procédé et un système de construction d'un instantané ponctuel d'une mémoire de données cohérente. La mémoire de données comprend des paires de valeurs-clés stockées sur une pluralité de nœuds de stockage. Dans un mode de réalisation, la mémoire de données est mise en œuvre sous la forme d'une base de données Apache® Cassandra fonctionnant dans le « nuage ». La mémoire de données comprend un mécanisme de journalisation qui stocke des journaux (c'est-à-dire, des instantanés non cohérents) de la mémoire de données sur chaque nœud à divers intervalles. Dans Cassandra, ces instantanés sont des tables de chaînes triées qui peuvent être copiées à un emplacement de stockage de secours. Une grappe de nœuds de traitement peut récupérer et résoudre les instantanés incohérents pour générer un instantané ponctuel de la mémoire de données correspondant à un point de cohérence de retard. De plus, l'instantané ponctuel peut être mis à jour comme l'un quelconque nouvel instantané incohérent est généré par la mémoire de données de telle sorte que le point de cohérence de retard associé à l'instantané ponctuel mis à jour soit plus récent.

Abstract: There is provided a high-strength thick-walled electric resistance welded steel pipe having excellent low-temperature toughness and excellent HIC resistance and having a yield strength of 400 MPa or more. 
     Steel is heated to and held at a temperature in the range of 1200°C to 1280°C. The steel has a chemical composition consisting of C: 0.025% to 0.084%, Si: 0.10% to 0.30%, Mn: 0.70% to 1.80%, controlled amounts of P, S, Al, N, and O, Nb: 0.001% to 0.065%, V: 0.001% to 0.065%, Ti: 0.001% to 0.033%, and Ca: 0.0001% to 0.0035% on a mass percent basis and the remainder being Fe and incidental impurities, and satisfies Pcm of 0.20 or less. The steel is hot-rolled at a rolling reduction of 20% or more in an unrecrystallization temperature range. After the completion of the hot-rolling, the steel is cooled to a finish cooling temperature of 630°C or less at a cooling rate in the range of 7°C/s to 49°C/s and is coiled at 400°C or more and less than 600°C to form a hot-rolled steel strip. The hot-rolled steel strip is subjected to roll-forming and electric resistance welding to produce an electric resistance welded steel pipe. The welded portion of the electric resistance welded steel pipe is then subjected to a heat treatment in which the welded portion is heated to a temperature in the range of 800°C to 1150°C over the total wall thickness and is then cooled to 630°C or less at an average cooling rate in the range of 7°C/s to 49°C/s. The base steel portion and the electric resistance welded portion of the resulting high-strength thick-walled electric resistance welded steel pipe have excellent low-temperature toughness and excellent HIC resistance.

Abstract: In addition to a sensor for detecting the completion of the evaporation of a liquid refrigerant, there is a need to provide a sensor for detecting a condensation temperature in a heating operation and/or an evaporation temperature in the cooling operation. In an air conditioner of the present invention, an indoor heat exchanger includes an auxiliary heat exchanger 20 and a main heat exchanger 21 disposed leeward from the auxiliary heat exchanger 20. In an operation in a predetermined dehumidification operation mode, a liquid refrigerant supplied to the auxiliary heat exchanger 20 all evaporates midway in the auxiliary heat exchanger 20. Therefore, only an upstream partial area in the auxiliary heat exchanger 20 is an evaporation region, while an area downstream of the evaporation region in the auxiliary heat exchanger 20 is a superheat region. Further, an indoor heat exchanger temperature sensor 32 is disposed leeward from the superheat region of the auxiliary heat exchanger 20 and in or in the vicinity of a middle portion of the indoor heat exchanger.

Abstract: Adjustment of the bandwidth of a data stream in an xDSL shared virtual channel. The invention concerns a method for adjusting the bandwidth of a data stream in an xDSL virtual channel, comprising a step of receiving, via an access gateway to an xDSL network contained within an IP network, a request to access a service accessible via said xDSL network. Said method is remarkable in that it then comprises the following steps: said access gateway obtains the value of a synchronisation speed between the access gateway and the xDSL network; the access gateway determines, on the basis of a set of predefined information comprising at least said value of the synchronisation speed, the identity of a corresponding interface from a plurality of interfaces of a piece of equipment of the IP network, called the hub, each of said interfaces having a limiting function for limiting the traffic throughput, called downlink traffic, exiting this interface in the direction of the gateway, or the identity of a proxy server associated with said corresponding interface of the hub; the access gateway transmits the access request upstream of the IP network, using, as the destination address, the address of said corresponding interface of the hub or the address of said proxy server associated with that corresponding interface of the hub; and a routing context is created at the hub when the access request is transmitted, in the upstream direction, such that the downlink traffic associated with this access request passes via said corresponding interface of the hub.

Abstract: An electrolytic cell for production of rare earth metals is disclosed. The electrolytic cell includes a cell housing provided with one or more inclined channels disposed in a floor of the cell housing along which channel(s) molten rare earth metals produced in the electrolytic cell can drain. One or more cathodes are suspended within the cell housing in substantially vertical alignment with the one or more channels. Respective opposing surfaces of the one or more cathodes are downwardly and outwardly inclined at an angle from the vertical. One or more pairs of anodes are suspended within the cell housing; each anode in the one or more pairs has a facing surface inclined from the vertical and spaced apart in parallel alignment with respective opposing inclined surfaces of the one or more cathodes to define a substantially constant anode-cathode distance therebetween. The electrolytic cell also includes a sump for receiving molten rare earth metals from the channel, wherein the sump is spaced apart and isolated from the one or more cathodes and the one or more anodes. Separation of the molten rare earth metals from the cathode(s) and the anode(s) prevents reaction and/or contamination with fugitive carbon arising from the anode(s) or back reaction with off gases.
