Abstract: A method ignites the combustion of fuel in a combustion chamber (5) of engine (2), by introducing microwave radiation into the combustion chamber (5). The microwave radiation is produced in a microwave source (7) on the outside of the combustion chamber (5). The introduced microwave radiation is absorbed by the fuel distributed in the combustion chamber (5). The supply of energy, in the fuel, arising from absorption, distributes combustion in a large-volume in the combustion chamber (5), preferably in the entire combustion chamber (5) and in a homogenous manner, and is essentially simultaneously ignited. An associated ignition device (1) and an associated engine (2) are also provided.

Abstract: A storage system implements a storage operating system configured to concurrently perform speculative readahead for a plurality of different read streams. Unlike previous implementations, the operating system manages a separate set of readahead metadata for each of the plurality of read streams. Consequently, the operating system can “match” a received client read request with a corresponding read stream, then perform readahead operations for the request in accordance with the read stream's associated set of metadata. Because received client read requests are matched to their corresponding read streams on a request-by-request basis, the operating system can concurrently perform readahead operations for multiple read streams, regardless of whether the read streams' file read requests are received by the storage system in sequential, nearly-sequential or random orders. Further, the operating system can concurrently perform speculative readahead for the plurality of different read streams, even when the read streams employ different readahead algorithms.

Abstract: An implantable artificial sphincter system provides long-term adjustment via transcutaneous energy transfer (TET), minimizing invasive adjustment through adding or removing fluid via a syringe. An infuser device provides bi-directional fluid transfer via a flexible conduit to a sphincter band, such as a gastric band, by a combination of thermodynamic actuation and a piezo-electrically disengaged drum brake assembly that thereby achieves a desirable small volume device. A propellant within a propellant cavity surrounds a metal bellows accumulator biased at body temperature to either expand or collapse the bellows accumulator with the opposite direction of movement effected by a thermal element that heats in combination with a negatively-biased propellant or cools in combination with a positively-biased propellant. A drum brake assembly locks the metal bellows accumulator in place between adjustments by thermodynamic actuation by activating piezo-electric stack actuators that disengage calipers from a brake drum attached to the bellows accumulator. <IMAGE>
