Abstract: A processor includes non-volatile memory into which streamed application components may be pre-fetched from a slower storage medium in order to decrease stall times during execution of the application. Alternatively, the application components pre-fetched into the non-volatile memory may be from a traditionally-loaded application rather than a streamed application. The order in which components of the application are prefetched into the non-volatile memory may be based on load order hints. For at least one embodiment, the load order hints are derived from sever-side load ordering logic. For at least one other embodiment, the load order hints are provided by the application itself via a mechanism such as an application programming interface. For at least one other embodiment, the load order hints are generated by the client using profile data. Or, a combination of such approaches may be used. Other embodiments are also described and claimed.

Abstract: A brake cylinder for pneumatically actuated vehicle brakes, especially for commercial vehicles, includes a housing. The housing is divided into two chambers by a piston, one of the chambers being used as a pressure chamber for actuating an operating brake section, and a cylinder spring of a spring-loaded brake section being arranged in the other chamber on the opposite side of the piston. The cylinder spring acts on another spring-loaded piston in the chamber, which can be blocked in relation to the first piston by a pneumatically actuated locking mechanism. The other spring-loaded piston is released from the first piston by a releasing action of the blocking mechanism, and is connected to a piston rod for actuating the vehicle brake. Following release of the blocking mechanism, the cylinder spring acts between the two pistons and moves them in relation to each other during a parking braking operation. The brake cylinder includes a manually actuatable release device, in addition to the pneumatically actuable blocking mechanism, for manually releasing the spring-loaded brake section without impairing the function of the operating brake section.

Abstract: The invention relates to a body worn communications device for communicating with a head-worn listening device, the communications device being adapted for receiving a multitude of audio signals and for transmitting at least one audio signal selected among the multitude of audio signals to the listening device, the communications device comprising a number of functional push-buttons for influencing the selection and properties of said audio signals. The invention further relates to a system, a method, and use. The object of the present invention is to provide a simple user interface between an audio selection device and a head-worn listening device, such as a hearing aid. The problem is solved in that the communications device comprises a user interface comprising a number of functional push-buttons for influencing the state of the user interface, such as the selection (and de-selection) of an audio signal, events and properties related to the audio signal, and wherein the state of the user interface is indicated at the same button where the state can be influenced. Among the advantages for a user are: Clear visual feedback by using simple button light indications;  operation  and  indication  are tied together in the buttons; the combination of audio and visual indications. The invention may e.g. be used for the hearing aids, ear phones, head sets, etc.
