Abstract: The device with vacuum bag for pressure therapy solves the problem of accurate
measuring of the under-pressure created in the vacuum bag and the problem of appropriate
adjustment of the liner clothing to individual patients. 
     The device with vacuum bag for pressure therapy according to the invention consists of a
vacuum bag (5), specially designed liner clothing, and a control and measuring unit,
situated in a housing (1), including a pressure gauge (2), which has direct connection to the
vacuum bag (5) through a tube (8). The air is sucked out from the bag (5) through tubes (4)
attached on the one side to six connections (6) on the vacuum bag and on the other side to
connections (3) provided on the housing (1). The liner clothing consists of several pieces
designed for different parts of the body. The liner clothing pieces are made of two layers of
porous fabric sewn together with longitudinal seams. The pockets made in this way are
filled with granulated material, which enables close fitting of the liner clothing to the body,
when the under-pressure is created in the vacuum bag (5), as the air between the particles
is sucked out, too. The liner clothing pieces are bound together by means of VELCRO®
brand fasteners.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a multi-processor computer system comprising - at least two processors for parallel execution of processes, - at least two cache memory units, each being associated with and connected to a separate processor, - a connection bus connecting said processors and said cache memory units, and- a process list unit connected to said connection line for storing a process list of processes to be available for execution by said processors. In order to enable power saving if no processes for execution are available while guaranteeing a fast wake-up procedure if such processes are available it is proposed according to the present invention that said processors are adapted for loading a global wake-up variable signalling process additions of processes to said process list into their associated cache memory unit, for switching into a low-power mode if said process list contains no process for execution by said processors and for switching into a normal-power mode if said wake-up variable signals an addition of a process to said process list. Thus, according to the present invention the cache coherence protocol is used for communicating and signalling the availability of processes for execution.
