Title: Method and system for controlling chemical reaction in a molten bath
Inventor: NAGEL CHRISTOPHER J
IPC: F23G5/00
Filed: 1992-07-06
Granted: 1995-05-25
Abstract: A method and a system is disclosed for controlling chemical reaction of a feed. The feed is directed into a reactor containing a molten bath to at least partially chemically react the feed to form an intermediate component. A portion of the intermediate component is combined with an off-gas which is emitted from the molten bath. At least a portion of the intermediate is then separated from the off-gas and returned to the molten bath. The returned intermediate component is then substantially converted to its atomic constituents. The atomic constituents subsequently exothermically react with other components of the molten bath for reaction to form compounds which are substantially stable at the operating conditions of the system, thereby allowing control of chemical reaction of the feed.

Title: Fast dispersing dosage forms free of gelatin
Inventor: GROTHER LEON PAUL
IPC: A61K47/10
Filed: 2000-01-27
Granted: 2003-12-04
Abstract: The present invention relates to fast dispersing solid dosage forms that preferably dissolve in the oral cavity within sixty (60), more preferably within thirty (30), most preferably within ten (10) seconds. A novel feature of the solid dosage forms according to the invention reside in the fact that the composition is essentially free or absolutely free of mammalian gelatin. It has been discovered that the use of certain modified starches at concentrations from 20 to 90 % by weight of the solid dosage form prepares dosage forms that are mechanically and chemically stable and are able to deliver higher concentrations of an active ingredient than the heretofore utilized gelatin based fast dispersing solid dosage forms. Further, the solid dosage forms according to the invention are obtainable by removing a solvent, such as water, from a mixture comprising an active ingredient, a modified starch and a matrix forming agent via freeze drying.

Date Mar. 28, 1996A method for treating an aqueous protein solution so as to kill microorganisms which may be present therein, but without causing coagulation, comprises either (1) mixing the solution with sufficient enzymatically produced protein hydrolysate (H1) to prevent coagulation of the mixture when the mixture is subsequently subjected to a heat treatment to kill microorganisms, and then subjecting the mixture to such a heat treatment, or (2) using one or more enzymes to hydrolyze protein in the aqueous protein solution to an extent sufficient to prevent coagulation of the resulting liquid hydrolysate (H2) when it is subsequently subjected to a heat treatment to kill microorganisms, and then subjecting the liquid hydrolysate (H2) to such a heat treatment. The use of aqueous protein solutions treated in this manner in the production of a foodstuff, such as a meat-based foodstuff, contributes very significantly to reducing any risk of contamination of the foodstuff by harmful microorganisms.

Title: Process for correcting axle counting errors in railway layouts and device for implementing the process
Inventor: HOFFMANN GOTTFRIED
IPC: B61L1/16
Filed: 1993-09-08
Granted: 1996-02-01
Abstract: Correction of the counter result (18) of a counting point (Z3) by the corresponding counter results (20) of neighbouring counting points (Z2, Z4) is permissible only if a further check has been made to ensure that the sections between these counting points which have been signalled as still occupied as a result of the counting difference are actually free; this is preferably done by comparing the counting results of other counting points (Z1, Z5) on either side of the faulty point (Z3). To correct counting errors also in the section containing branched lines, counter results are allocated to all lines in these sections. The free signal conditions for these sections are used to find free signal equations and from the two free signal equations for each counting point is found a correction equation which establishes the condition in which a counter result may be regarded as clearly false and correctable. The counter results are processed in computers which retain the axle counts of the counting points which they passed for each train. The counting point information is allocated to the storage fields in the computers for the individual trains by the concatenation of the counting points by the free signal equations applicable to them.
Patent AU-628497-B2 (AU)
Title: Memory management in high-performance fault-tolerant computer systems
Inventor: HORST ROBERT W
IPC: G11C29/00
Filed: 1990-03-20
Granted: 1992-09-17
Abstract: This fault-tolerant computer system employs multiple (for example, three) identical CPUs executing the same instruction stream, with multiple (for example, two) memory modules which in their address space of the CPUs store duplicates of the same data. The CPUs are loosely synchronized, as by detecting events such as memory references and stalling any CPU ahead of the others until all execute the respective function simultaneously. Interrupts are synchronized by ensuring that all CPUs implement the interrupt at the same point in their instruction stream. Memory references via the separate CPU-to-memory busses are voted at the three separate ports of each of the memory modules. I/O functions are implemented using two identical I/O busses, each of which is separately coupled to only one of the memory modules. A number of I/O processors are coupled to both I/O busses. I/O devices are accessed through a pair of redundant identical I/O processors, but only one is designated to actively control a given I/O device. In case of failure of one I/O processor, however, an I/O device can be accessed by the other one without system shutdown, i.e., by merely redesignating the addresses of the registers of the I/O device under instruction control. <IMAGE>

Title: Direct digital synthesizer driven PLL frequency synthesizer with clean-up PLL
Inventor: GILMORE ROBERT P
IPC: H03L7/22
Filed: 1996-03-08
Granted: 1999-10-14
Abstract: A frequency synthesizer which uses a direct digital synthesizer (DDS) to generate a highly accurate periodic signal of a frequency selected from a plurality of reference frequencies. The DDS output signal is bandpass filtered utilizing a clean-up phase lock loop (PLL) to produce a spectrally pure reference signal and promote overall fast settling time. A second or primary phase lock loop, having a much faster settling time than the first PLL, adjusts the frequency of the reference signal generated by the clean-up PLL. In one embodiment, the DDS frequency synthesizer has a digital to analog (DAC) converter coupled to the clean-up PLL. Another embodiment uses a modified DDS (without a DAC or lookup table) and feeds the most significant bit (MSB) or overflow bit from the DAC accumulator into the "clean-up" PLL. In both embodiments, the resulting synthesizer has high spectral purity, fine frequency resolution and a fast settling time. Yet another embodiment uses a switching apparatus to bypass the "clean-up" PLL while it is settling on a new frequency. Once the "clean-up" PLL settles on the new frequency the switches are set to couple the "clean-up" PLL back into the synthesizer apparatus.
