Abstract: A message is distributed from a source to one or more hosts in a communications network that comprises one or more multicast capable routers. To do this, a first multicast capable router generates a first table that identifies sub-branches connected to the first multicast capable router, and for each identified sub-branch, includes membership-related information from which it can be determined how many hosts are part of the sub-branch and (optionally) a metric associated with each of the sub-branch hosts. The multicast capable router then receives the message to be distributed and a first value, N1, that specifies how many hosts the message is to be distributed to, and uses the first table to identify N1 hosts and their respective sub-branches. It distributes the message to each of the identified sub-branches along with a second value that specifies how many hosts within the sub-branch the message is to be distributed to.

Abstract: A fuel injection system having a high-pressure fuel pump connected to a fuel injection valve for each cylinder of an internal combustion engine in which the high-pressure fuel pump has a piston defining a working chamber communicating with a pressure chamber of the fuel injection valve, which has an injection valve element that controls injection openings and can be moved in an opening direction counter to a closing force by the pressure prevailing in the pressure chamber. A first control valve controls a connection of the pump working chamber to a relief chamber and a second control valve controls a connection of a control pressure chamber, which communicates with the pump working chamber, to a relief chamber. When a control piston acts on the injection valve element, in a stroke position of the control piston in which the injection valve element is in its closed position, the pressure prevailing in the control pressure chamber acts on a greater end surface of the control piston than in a stroke position of the control piston in which the injection valve element is opened by its maximal stroke.

Abstract: L'invention concerne une antenne d'émetteur-récepteur à noyau magnétique pour la détection de marqueurs électroniques de surveillance d'articles (EAS). Ledit noyau comporte un empilement de rubans d'alliages amorphes isolés les uns des autres et stratifiés. Un bobinage de fils, également isolé des rubans, et raccordé à un contrôleur électronique, produit les modes émetteur et récepteur. L'antenne d'émetteur-récepteur, optimisée pour le fonctionnement en mode double, est plus petite et consomme moins d'énergie que les antennes EAS à noyau d'air classiques à performance équivalente. Des géométries de noyau complexes, par exemple un empilement en sandwich de rubans de différentes dimensions, peuvent être appliquées afin de faire varier la perméabilité effective du noyau de façon à adapter la performance de l'antenne. On peut combiner plusieurs antennes d'émetteurs-récepteurs pour augmenter la dimension de la zone d'interrogation EAS créée.
