Abstract: An expert system and a method of providing automated advice are described. The system is regularly updated by advice (or diagnosis, recommendation etc.) given by practitioners in the relevant field. The combination of the underlying facts and the consequent (human) advice is used to update a ruleset that is then used to provide automated advice. 
     An example of financial advice is given. A database contains the details for the customers of a financial institution together with advice and recommendations given previously by the institution's human advisors. This database is used to derive a ruleset which is then applied to a subsequent customer's details in an automated manner, possibly at the user's own PC via the World Wide Web. Frequent updating using data from the human advisors' work means that the database (and hence the ruleset) are kept up to date. Consistent advice can thus be provided with minimum human interaction.

Abstract: A traverse saw comprises a table (1) supported by a frame (2), and a blade
assembly (4) mounted below the table and adapted to carry a saw blade (5) which can
protrude through a slot in the table to cut a workpiece on the table. The blade assembly is
mounted on a horizontal guide arrangement formed by rods (20,22) so that it is movable
horizontally along it, and the saw includes a shaft (36) that is attached at one end thereof
to the blade assembly and has at the other end thereof a handle (38) to allow the user to
move the blade assembly along the guide by pulling or pushing the handle. The saw can
be arranged so that the blade assembly can be raised by the operator by manipulation of
the handle (38) for example by twisting it, to cause a saw blade attached thereto to
protrude upwardly through the slot and engage the workpiece, and the handle can then be
pulled or pushed to move the blade assembly along the guide arrangement without the
operator releasing grip on the handle. After cutting the workpiece, the operator may
release the handle to allow the saw blade (5) to descend under gravity back under the
table. 
     The saw has the advantage that relatively large workpieces may be sawn with a
relatively small saw table because the maximum size of cut is determined by the entire
dimension of the table rather than by that part of the table lying in front of the workpiece.

Inventor: SHARRATT MICHAEL
IPC: H04B10/29

Abstract: The invention provides an optical communication system (10) comprising a plurality of mutually interconnected bi-directional optical waveguide rings (20, 30, 40, 50, 60) in which radiation modulated with communication traffic propagates. The radiation is partitioned into 32 distinct wavebands. Interfaces (70, 80, 90, 100, 110, 120) are included in the system (10) where communication traffic propagating in the rings transfers from one ring to another. Each interface (70) is capable of providing an all-optical waveband reconfigurable communication link between the rings (20, 30, 40, 50, 60). At each interface (70), conversion of optical radiation to corresponding electrical signals is not required when transferring communication traffic from one ring to another, thereby providing the system (10) with a potentially larger communication bandwidth compared to conventional optical communication systems. If required, the interfaces (70, 80, 90, 100, 110, 120) can include one or more of regenerative amplification (440, 850, 852, 854, 856, 858, 860, 862, 864) and wavelength-switching transponders (1332, 1410).

Abstract: A compressor protection and control subsystem for a rotary compressor
provides temperature pressure, mis-wiring and vibrational protection for the scroll
machine. The vibrational protection comprises a vibration sensor which is integrated
on the circuit board of the protection and control subsystem. The vibration sensor, in
conjunction with at least one timer, monitors the vibrations of the scroll machine and will
shut down the machine when excess vibrations are sensed over a prespecified period
of time. The temperature system monitors operating temperature conditions the
pressure system monitors operating pressures and the mis-wiring system monitors the
power supplied to the compressor. Once an undesirable characteristic is identified, the
operation of the scroll machine is stopped. These protection systems are integrated into
a single subsystem which identifies the reason of shutting off the scroll machine in order
to simplify repairs needed. The subsystem incorporates a gateway and/or a serial
peripheral interface in order to communicate with a central operating and control
system.
