Abstract: Systems and methods, including computer program products, providing high-availability in server systems. In one implementation, a server system is cluster of two or more autonomous server nodes, each running one or more virtual servers. When a node fails, its virtual servers are migrated to one or more other nodes. Connectivity between nodes and clients is based on virtual IP addresses, where each virtual server has one or more virtual IP addresses. Virtual servers can be assigned failover priorities, and, in failover, higher priority virtual servers can be migrated before lower priority ones. Load balancing can be provided by distributing virtual servers from a failed node to multiple different nodes. When a port within a node fails, the node can reassign virtual IP addresses from the failed port to other ports on the node until no good ports remain and only then migrate virtual servers to another node or nodes.

Abstract: An axial motor ( 100 ) driven by opposed pistons/cylinder ( 101 a- 105 b , 111 a- 115 b) pairs arranged in a circular array about a central axis of the motor ( 100 ). The opposed pistons ( 101 a , 101 b ; 102 a , 102 b ; 103 a , 103 b ; 104 a , 104 b ; 105 a , 105 b) in each pair are linked by a corresponding connecting rod ( 106-110 ), which transfers the thrust from the pistons ( 101 a- 105 a) to an output shaft via a power transmission apparatus ( 300 ) and z crank ( 114 ) arrangement. Reciprocating couplings disposed in the transmission apparatus ( 300 ) connect the connecting rods ( 106-110 ) to the apparatus ( 300 ). During operation, the reciprocating couplings oscillate to retain the connecting rods ( 106-110 ) substantially aligned with the corresponding piston pair to reduce side thrust on the pistons.

Title: Verfahren zur auswertung von messsignalen eines nach dem lautzeitprinzip arbeitenden messgerätes
Inventor: MUELLER ROLAND
IPC: G01F23/284
Filed: 2002-07-26
Abstract: Das erfindungsgemässe Verfahren erlaubt insbesondere auch eine Extrapolation des Messwerts am oberen und unteren Ende des Messbereichs, wo in der Regel keine direkte Messung möglich ist durch die Überlagerung von Störsignalen, etwa durch Reflektionen an einer Radar-Antenne. Bei starken Störsignalen, etwa durch Eigenresonanzen des Behälters oder eines Stutzens, in den das Messgerät eingebaut ist, kann immer dann das direkte Füllstandssignal verwendet werden, wenn es durch Überlagerung mit einem Störsignal in der Amplitude gross und damit detektierbar wird, während dann, wenn es zwischen zwei Störsignalen liegt und nicht über diese hinausragt, mit der Verschiebung des Signals von der Reflektionsstelle ein Füllstandswert interpoliert werden kann. Das Verfahren adaptiert sich auch selbständig an eine vorliegende Messsituation, während bei bisher bekannten Verfahren vom Bediener zwischen der Messung über eine Verschiebung des EOL-Signals oder einer Messung über das direkte Füllstandsecho entschieden werden muss.
