Abstract: Techniques for mapping virtual resources to physical resources in a wireless communication system are described.  In an aspect, a virtual resource (e.g., a virtual resource block) may be mapped to a physical resource in a selected subset of physical resources based on a first mapping function, which may map contiguous virtual resources to non-contiguous physical resources in the selected subset. The physical resource in the selected subset may then be mapped to an allocated physical resource (e.g., a physical resource block) among a plurality of available physical resources based on a second mapping function. In one design, the first mapping function may include (i) a re-mapping function that maps an index of the virtual resource to a temporary index and (ii) a permutation function (e.g., a bit-reversed row-column interleaver) that maps the temporary index to an index of the physical resource in the selected subset.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method and a device for extending the furnace campaign by avoiding cracks in the stones and the chipping of parts of the stones, and reducing joints in melting furnaces. Said aim is achieved by a measurement of the forces/pressures/moments of the furnace stones occurring against each other, or of the furnace stones against the bracing and defi-ned necessary counter forces, such that the forces between the stones, or between the bracings and the stones are below the maxi-mum permissible compression (pressure force) of the stones, and the forces required for avoiding joints between the stones are en-sured. Said process occurs automatically as a form of control by determining the force of sensors, analysis of processors and data, and activation of actuators for generating counter forces.
