Abstract: An object is to provide a key protection structure for an electronic apparatus which can prevent a preset value of a switch from being intentionally changed by the user or the like.  When setting of a first switch 21 is ended, a tool shutter operation portion 72 of a lock key 70 is inserted into a first shutter operation hole 61. The tool shutter operation portion 72 is then engaged with an engaging recess 45 of a first shutter 40. Thereafter, the lock key 70 is rotated, so that the first shutter 40 is rotated. A covering portion 44 of the shutter is therefore moved immediately above the first switch 21 to close a first switch operation hole 58, whereby the first switch 21 can be locked (key-protected) so as not to be externally operated.

Abstract: A system and method for tuning a storage system may include characterizing a maximum sustainable throughput for the storage system. The maximum sustainable throughput may be decreased by a primary derate parameter to obtain a primary throughput. Sizes for buffer units may be determined at different stream rates, where during operation the buffer units buffer a data stream between a stream requester and storage. Buffer unit sizes may be determined by generating stream simulators sufficient to consume the primary throughput and then optimizing the buffer sizes to prevent underruns. This may be repeated at different stream rates to determine a table of buffer sizes. The primary throughput may be decreased by a secondary derate parameter to obtain a maximum system bandwidth which sets an upper limit on admission of streams. When buffer sizes are determined, a prefill margin parameter may be set by which request deadlines must be met. Also, an available rate parameter may be set to proportion available bandwidth between rate-guaranteed streams and non-rate-guaranteed requests. The proportion allocated for rate-guaranteed requests may be used to determine buffer sizes that are able to meet the prefill margin. Another parameter may set the length of a seek reorder queue that orders storage requests according to their physical address. This parameter allows a tradeoff between seek efficiency and variability in service time, which may require larger buffer sizes. Also, the block size by which data is accessed in the storage system may be configured.

Abstract: In a free piston machine, a coil is mounted to its housing and magnetically linked to a permanent magnet or electromagnet on its piston member to form a linear motor. The coil and magnet are either added to embody the invention or are part of an AC linear alternator or AC linear motor which are a part of the free piston machine. A source of DC electrical current and a switch for connecting the DC source to the coil supply DC current to the coil when the switch is closed so that the coil and magnet temporarily operate as a DC linear motor until the piston is adequately centered for start-up without collision. The DC source voltage is temporarily applied to the coil to move the piston away from an end wall of the cylinder. This is accomplished by applying the DC current to the coil for a predetermined time interval, or by sensing when the piston has reached an adequately centered position.

Abstract: A multi-rate transponder system has a receiving part, a system controller and a transmitting part. The receiving part includes a data transfer circuit, a clock transfer circuit, and a reference clock circuit. The receiving part receives the incoming serial data stream and derives a clock signal and a data signal. The data transfer circuit generates an incoming data signal based on the derived data signal. The clock transfer circuit generates a receiver clock signal. The reference clock circuit generates a reference clock signal for the transmitting part based on the derived clock signal. The system controller includes system data receiving and transferring means, and system data processing means. The system data receiving means receives the incoming data signal and the receiver clock signal and provides the incoming data signal for clock domain transfer. The system data processing means processes the incoming data signal to generate an outgoing data signal to the system data transfer means. The system data transfer means provides the outgoing data signal to the transmitting part in response to a transmitter clock signal. The transmitting part generates an output clock signal based on the reference clock signal, and includes a transmitter clock circuit to generate the transmitter clock signal to the system data transfer means, a data reception circuit to receive the outgoing data signal from the system data transfer means and to generate the serial outgoing data stream at an appropriate bit rate depending on the outgoing data signal and the output clock signal.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method and apparatus for access security in a computer unit in which a user's identification is processed and ascertained by a control IC card prior to the activation of the computer unit as compared to performing a user validation after the computer unit has been activated. In particular, if the identification data were to be altered or removed prior to the normal shut down procedure within the computer unit, then the control IC card would initiate a suspend function to the computer unit to disengage all input and output (I/O) operations. If the proper personal identification data cannot be revalidated, then the computer unit would remain deactivated, thus totally preventing any unauthorized access by one or more computer hackers. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The present application concerns a method for monitoring the hydrocarbon and water production from different production zones in a hydrocarbon reservoir and/or injection wells and detection of different phenomena such as e.g. local variations in pH, salinity, hydrocarbon composition, temperature, pressure, microorganisms, and the difference/ratio between production of formation and/or injection water from various zones in a hydrocarbon reservoir. The method comprising dividing regions around wells in the reservoir into a number of sections, and injecting or placing specific tracers with unique characteristics for each section into the formation in these regions. The tracers are chemically immobilized/integrated in the formation or in constructions/filters around the wells, the tracers (tracer carriers) being chemically intelligent and released as a function of specific events. Detecting the tracers downstream provides information about the various zones. The invention may be used as a local alarm system for water breakthrough, or for improved oil and gas recovery (IOR) in horizontal production and injection wells.

Abstract: The RF propagation of a wireless system is normalized to remove the directionality, orientation and gain characteristics of the antennae deployed in the system to allow for enhanced growth management of a wireless system. RF propagation data for a wireless system is gathered by any collection method. For example, drive test of the cellular system can be performed to receive and measure the signal strength throughout the system to determine the receive power of signals from cell sites in the system. Other methods such as uplink collection, E911 data can be used. After measurements of the system are collected, the data is post-processed to remove the effective gain achieved by each antenna associated with each of the signals to normalize the signals to a conceptual antenna having an isotropic radiation pattern. A database of the antenna gain and deployment patterns of the actual antennae in the system is used to normalize the data. The expected receive power of the conceptual antennae signals at the locations throughout the cellular system are determined using a propagation model. The modeled conceptual signals correspond to the measured signals and the characteristics of the conceptual antennae substituted to model the conceptual signals. The Propagation modeling can be revised through analysis of the correlation with the measured data. Once the system has been normalized and the propagation model is acceptably accurate, the system designer can model data corresponding to a variety of antenna gain, directionality and orientation choices to effectively enhance growth management through effective redeployment and specification of antennae without the need to physically experiment with antenna of varying characteristics and perform numerous data collections after antennae substitutions or reconfigurations. A final data collection such as a final drive test can be performed after implementation of a new antenna deployment. <IMAGE>
