Abstract: In a method of IP routing lookup in a routing table, comprising entries of arbitrary length prefixes with associated next-hop information in a next-hop table, to determine where IP datagrams are to be forwarded, a representation of the routing table is stored, in the form of a complete prefix tree (7), defined by the prefixes of all routing table entries. Further, a representation of a bit vector (8) comprising data of a cut through the prefix tree (7) at a current depth (D), and an array of pointers, comprising indices to the next-hop table and to a next-level chunk, are stored. Said bit-vector (8) is divided into bit-masks and a representation of the bit-masks is stored in a maptable. Then, an array of code words, each encoding a row index into the maptable and a pointer offset, and an array of base addresses are stored. Finally, the lookup is performed.
Patent CA-2308043-A1 (CA)
Inventor: KUZNETSOV STEPHEN B
IPC: G01R31/06
Filed: 2000-05-11
Abstract: A winding fault detection system provides classification and identification of winding faults or winding malfunctions. The fault detection system provides signals to individual electronic switches for segmented primary windings each having an electrical phase and grouped into sub-phases which are individually switch into or out of an excitation supply or isolated through the electronic switching in response to signals from the winding fault detection system. Each primary winding forms an electrical member which includes a stator having a poly-phase winding, and there is a secondary electrical member magnetically coupled with the stator. Each primary has magnetic field sensors which detect phase angle and magnitudes of radial components of air gap flux by magnetic measurement probes between each secondary electrical member and each primary electrical member and derives an electrical signal for a component of air gap flux contributing to electromagnetic torque at each position of each stator's periphery. Additionally, the system instantaneously stores data continuously derived from the magnetic sensors and determines a hierarchy of fault detection schemes.

Inventor: RIPPE BENGT
IPC: A61J1/00
Filed: 1998-11-27
Abstract: L'invention concerne un conteneur pour solution médicale, destiné en particulier à la dialyse péritonéale. Un compartiment de grande taille (10) contient la majeure partie de la solution médicale (par exemple, bicarbonate de soude, lactate de sodium et chlorure de sodium). En outre, plusieurs compartiments de petite taille (14, 15) sont prévus pour contenir des quantités partielles de la solution médicale, dont le stockage à long terme n'est pas compatible avec le contenu du compartiment de grande taille (par exemple, ions calcium et glucose). En mélangeant le contenu du premier (14) ou du second (15) des compartiments de petite taille avec le contenu du compartiment de grande taille (10), on obtient une solution qui renferme 1,5 ou 2,5 % de glucose et 1,0 ou 1,6 mM de calcium. En mélangeant le contenu des compartiments de petite taille avec celui des compartiments de grande taille, on obtient une solution qui renferme 4,0 % de glucose et 2,5 mM de calcium. Par suite d'une ultrafiltration accrue à forte concentration de glucose, les solutions médicales de ce type sont neutres du point de vue du calcium lorsqu'on les utilise comme solutions de dialyse péritonéale.

Abstract: A trigger lock for guns comprised of a sleeve fitted over the swingable leg of a conventional padlock's "U" shaped shackle. The sleeved shackle leg is inserted behind the trigger of a gun and secured in place by closing the padlock around its surrounding trigger guard. The sleeve shims the outer diameter of the shackle to closely fit into the space between the back of the trigger and its surrounding trigger guard, thereby blocking rearward motion of the trigger and disabling the gun. The trigger-blocking sleeve and padlock body include flange protrusions that foil attempts to withdraw the sleeve from behind the trigger after the padlock has been closed. Furthermore, space is provided inside the shackle to receive at least one looped end of a tether cable affixed to an immovable object, thereby preventing the disabled gun from being stolen.

Abstract: A complex object, such as a spar for a tilt-rotor aircraft rotor blade, is manufactured from fiber composite materials. Unbroken fiber strips are laid along the length of the spar to maximize the number of full length fibers used in the spar. Cross-sectional areas along the length of the spar can change in both shape and area. The fibers are laid to accommodate and form these variable shapes. The locations for the fibers are determined by defining locations for the strips for each cross-section, then connecting corresponding points together to specify where the strips are to be laid down.
