A fault tolerant/fault resilient computer system includes at least two compute elements connected to at least one controller. Each compute element has clocks that operate asynchronously to clocks of the other compute elements. The compute elements operate in a first mode in which the compute elements each execute a first stream of instructions in emulated clock lockstep, and in a second mode in which the compute elements each execute a second stream of instructions in instruction lockstep. Each compute element may be a multi-processor compute element.

A picture display having symmetrically arranged display sections for left and right eyes and guide pieces protruded from the upper surface of an upper chassis at the upper portions of the sections. The guide pieces are engaged with the left and right links. To adjust the distance between the display sections, a knob is turned and the links are slid laterally and symmetrically. A lever is provided to the central part of the upper surface of the upper chassis, and can be turned forward and backward. Pins respectively provided to left and right lens units are coupled to the left and right ends of the lever through universal joints which are integrally rotatable in the forward-backward direction, but expandable in the lateral direction. When the lever is turned forward or backward, the left and right pins symmetrically move laterally. As a result, the left and right display sections are focused.

A container 10 includes a main body in the form of a sleeve 14 with a plug closure 12. Part of the plug 12 is arranged to be received in one end of the sleeve 14 to close that end of the sleeve 14. The sleeve 14 includes a plurality of folded retention flaps 40 at the end of the sleeve 14 receiving the plug 12. The plug 12 includes a circumferential projection 54 to contain the ends 4 of the folded retention flaps 40 and thereby prevent separation of the plug 12 from the sleeve 14. The flaps 40 are connected to a main panel 24 of the sleeve 14 through a fold line 36 which is strengthened by adhesive 62.

A cooking range kit for assembly to a horizontal plate (12) includes a plurality of heater units (14,32), energy conduits (16,34) connectable to said heater units (14,32), and controls for said heater units (14,32), said plate (12) being provided with apertures (22) for the insertion therein of part of said heater unit (14,32), an upper surface of said heater unit arranged to support a cooking vessel projecting, when assembled to said plate, above the upper surface of said plate (12), said energy connections when assembled being located below said plate (12).
摘要:
Photographic emulsions comprise silver halide grains which are generally produced by reacting an aqueous silver salt solution, and an aqueous halide solution in an aqueous gelatin solution in a reaction vessel. However, it may often be difficult to control the formation of the grains to produce consistent and reproducible emulsions. Described herein is an improved nucleation device (10) for mixing photographic emulsions. The device (10) has three inlets (52, 54, 56) through which the silver salt solution, the halide solution and the gelatin are introduced into the device. The inlets (52, 54, 56) are respectively connected to tube member (34) and passages (70, 72), the tube member (34) and passages (70, 72) being concentrically disposed about an axis (20). Solutions from the tube member (34) and passage (70) impinge on a rotating rotor (40) in a first mixing zone (74). Solution from passage (72) mixes with the mixture from the first mixing zone (74) at a second mixing zone (76) spaced therefrom.

A mirror set copy from a first storage device (10) and controller (70) to a second storage device (20) and a controller (85) is performed in a computer system (100) in which write requests (50) are each associated with a reference label. A mirror read request (60) is received at the first storage device, while write requests are received and processed at the first device and received at both. The first storage device then sends the data and label to the second, after which the second storage device writes the data. The second device processes write requests until it finds a request with the same reference label as that sent with the data.

A virtual intercom method implemented by a computer-based electronic assistant (110) and including the steps of receiving a voice command from a first party (200), wherein the voice command identifies a user selectable one of a plurality of subscriber parties; responding to the voice command by generating a greeting to the first party, wherein the greeting is an audio recording in the voice of the identified subscriber (216); receiving a message generated by the first party for the identified subscriber (218); and storing the received message for later playback to the identified subscriber.
