Systems and methods for downloading and updating software, in which a plurality of manifest files are obtained, each manifest file containing information corresponding to one or more components. Information contained in each manifest file is displayed in a dual-list format, where a first list displays a component name for each component listed in each manifest file, including components installed and not installed on the computer, a second list displays the component name for each component of the first list that is installed on the computer, and the component names in the first list are displayed aligned with the component names in the second list such that the component name of each installed component that appears in the first list is displayed aligned with the component name of the same installed component on the second list.

A computer-based training (CBT) system using versatile resources to support multiple training scenarios in a multi-user environment. The CBT system includes an authoring program module accessible by a lesson designer to create a number of lessons. The CBT system includes one or more runner program modules accessible by lesson takers for running the lessons created with the authoring program module. The CBT system also includes a relational database accessible by the runner program modules and comprises administrative information and information for retrieving desired resources. The versatile resources reduce the memory storage requirements for a CBT system capable of supporting multiple training scenarios in a multi-user network environment. The CBT system realistically simulates multi-mode communication systems and implements progressive mentoring and voice-based progression methodologies.

A dunnage or cargo air bag has incorporated therein a pair of glue or adhesive bonding strips which are located within the immediate vicinity of the inflation valve assembly so as to operatively cooperate with a folded edge portion of the dunnage or cargo air bag and a stitched or sewn edge portion of the dunnage or cargo air bag and thereby effectively surround or circumscribe the inflation valve assembly. In this manner, the plurality of paper plies are able to be effectively secured in a substantially flattened state upon the four sides surrounding the inflation valve assembly whereby the portion of each one of the plurality of paper plies, which effectively forms or defines the inner, annular periphery or rim wall portion of each one of the apertures, holes, or openings through which, for example, the tubular body member of the inflation valve assembly projects outwardly, will not be disposed within the vicinity of the external thread portions of the tubular body member of the inflation valve assembly so as not to effectively interfere with the threaded engagement and secured mounting of the internally threaded closure cap upon the externally threaded tubular body member of the inflation valve assembly.

A hydraulic system for controlling the engagement and disengagement of a friction element includes a source of line pressure, a source of exhaust pressure, a manual valve having a forward state and a reverse state, connected to the exhaust pressure source and line pressure source and including a first outlet and a second outlet, for opening and closing communication between said outlets and said pressure sources in response to changes in the states, a friction element communicating with the line pressure source through the manual valve in the reverse state, and a control valve including a port communicating with the friction element, the control valve producing control pressure at the port when the manual valve is in the forward state.

Techniques are described for identifying a wireless access point device using beacon messages and probe responses. An access point may generate and broadcast beacon messages which include an information element containing information specific to the device as well as to the current context of the device. For example, the information element may include a device vendor ID, product ID, and a device-unique ID. That is, the information element provides information related to the device itself independently from the configuration of the wireless network which the beacon message (or probe response) is associated with.

A wall module for a modular wall structure integrates a wall panel portion with a post portion having top or upper and bottom or lower extensions and at least one groove for receiving for receiving a distal end portion of a wall panel portion of an adjacent module. The bottom/lower extension is set within an exposed portion of a reinforcing cage of a caisson or pier extending below grade and the reinforcing cage and bottom/lower extension are encapsulated with a material such as concrete to integrate the caisson or pier with the bottom/lower post extension. Integration of the caisson or pier with the module provides numerous economies of transportation and construction of the modular wall as well as increased safety and limitation of costs of repair. The top/upper post extension is of a length to accommodate the full height of the wall panel portion of an adjacent module to improve strength and stability of the modular mall.

A highway crash barrier structure with an improved interlocking system includes a plurality of rigid sections disposed end-to-end in interlocking relationship with one another. The ends of each rigid upright section are provided with a reshaped JJ Hooks® connection. Each hook member has an extending vertical lip which is bent into a “J” shaped cross-section to engage a similar lip on the hook member of the adjacent section such that lateral movement of the respective sections is prevented. However, the respective sections of the system can be easily placed or removed by vertically displacing them. In addition, the interlocking plates at each end of the upright sections are vertically lengthened while the number of bars welded to the plate is increased to reduce the rotational moment of the sections and increase shear transfer between adjacent sections. Furthermore, connections include deflection limitation stops located at the lower part of each end of each upright section which prevents spalling and decreases deflection during a crash. The deflection stops can be positioned wholly within the rigid sections or can protrude partway out the bottom of the sections for particular applications.

In one or more embodiments, a processor includes a link return stack circuit used for storing branch return addresses, wherein a link return stack controller is configured to determine that one or more entries in the link return stack are invalid as being dependent on a mispredicted branch, and to reset the link return stack to a valid remaining entry, if any. In this manner, branch mispredictions cause dependent entries in the link return stack to be flushed from the link return stack, or otherwise invalidated, while preserving the remaining valid entries, if any, in the link return stack. In at least one embodiment, a branch information queue used for tracking predicted branches is configured to store a marker indicating whether a predicted branch has an associated entry in the link return stack, and it may store an index value identifying the specific, corresponding entry in the link return stack.

A microprocessor includes two branch history tables, and is configured to use a first one of the branch history tables for predicting branch instructions that are hits in a branch target cache, and to use a second one of the branch history tables for predicting branch instructions that are misses in the branch target cache. As such, the first branch history table is configured to have an access speed matched to that of the branch target cache, so that its prediction information is timely available relative to branch target cache hit detection, which may happen early in the microprocessor's instruction pipeline. The second branch history table thus need only be as fast as is required for providing timely prediction information in association with recognizing branch target cache misses as branch instructions, such as at the instruction decode stage(s) of the instruction pipeline.
