Patent GB-2366401-A (GB)
Title: Resource sharing with dynamically adjusted priorities
Inventor: GRAY THOMAS
IPC: G06F9/46
Filed: 2000-08-25
Abstract: A resource sharing system which dynamically adjusts the priorities at which requests from applications in different request classes 1A, 1B, 1C for a shared resource are processed. The dynamic priority of a request class is based in part on the average resource allocation to requests in this request class, and in part on settings for the minimum and maximum allocations (min and max in fig 15) to the request class. The average resource allocation is the proportion of time the shared resource has been assigned to requests of this class relative to other classes. The dynamic adjustment of priorities uses sliding constraints 3 whereby the priorities are caused to "slide" with the average resource allocation, and the priority imposes a constraint on when the requests of a resource class can be satisfied: namely, when there are no other requests from higher-priority request classes waiting for the resource.

Title: Optimized selection and accessing of stored files
Inventor: CANNON DAVID MAXWELL
IPC: G06F12/00
Filed: 2001-04-19
Abstract: A method, apparatus, and computer program are disclosed for a computer-implemented technique for generating file copies with minimal mounting and positioning of storage volumes. The method receives a request to generate file copies specifying file selection criteria, identifies matching files meeting the selection criteria, locates the matching files on their storage volumes, and copies the files to a copy set. Determination of file copying order is optimized by placing greater emphasis on relative storage locations of matching files than on the order in which their copies are requested. The method ensures that each matching file is included, without duplication, in the copy set.
Patent GB-2376098-A (GB)
Title: Unhandled operation handling in multiple instruction set systems
Inventor: NEVILL EDWARD COLLES
IPC: G06F9/30
Filed: 2001-05-31
Abstract: Unhandled operation of a program instruction of a first instruction set, such as a Java (R.T.M) bytecode, is detected. Instead of invoking a mechanism for directly dealing with that unhandled operation, one or more instructions from a second instruction set, such as ARM instructions, are instead used to emulate the instruction that was subject to the unhandled operation. If these instructions of the second instruction set are also subject to unhandled operation, then the mechanisms for dealing with unhandled operation within that second instruction set may be invoked to repair that operation. This approach is well suited to dealing with unhandled operation of variable length instructions being interpreted with a processor core having a native fixed length instruction set. In particular, prefetch aborts and unhandled floating point operations may be conveniently dealt with in this way.
Patent GB-2369022-A (GB)
Title: Delivery of digital media files, e.g. by digital radio
Inventor: FERRIS GAVIN ROBERT
IPC: H04H60/27
Filed: 2001-07-09
Abstract: An incomplete/partly corrupted digital media file is delivered 'in the clear'; in addition, a delta file is delivered to users meeting access control criteria which, when combined with the incomplete/partly corrupted parts allows a complete and uncorrupted version of the media file to be re-constructed. The method allows, in one implementation, a secure music purchase system to operate over digital radio: for example, the start of a song when played over the radio is usually deliberately talked over and the end cut short to prevent listeners being able to record a complete copy. With the present system, this practice can continue, but listeners can also purchase the missing or corrupted sections to enable them to possess a complete and uncorrupted version for playback.

Title: Test for brake fluid age and condition
Inventor: PETTY JON A
IPC: G01N31/22
Filed: 2000-07-20
Abstract: A reactive test strip (10) having a pre-exposure color is used to measure and indicate the concentration of copper ions in brake fluid in terms of a readily visible color change. The strip is immersed in the fluid within a brake fluid container (30) and any resulting color change is compared to a color chart (20) and a known test standard representative of the maximum concentration determined empirically to correspond to a boiling point considered safe for normal operation. If the color change indicates a higher copper concentration, then the fluid is considered inadequate for safe operation and thus recommended for replacement without further tests. Similar copper or metal strips can also be used to determine iron or zinc concentration. An automated embodiment of the invention includes an optical instrument to compare the color obtained during the test against a predetermined test standard and determine whether a brake fluid change is recommended.
