Abstract:
A male connector is capable of magnetically attracting a female connector. The female connector includes a first end surface and a second end surface. The male connector includes a first telescoping pin and a second telescoping pin. The first telescoping pin and the second telescoping pin are capable of contacting the first end surface and the second end surface, to make an electrical connection between the male connector and the female connector.
Abstract:
An electronic device includes a display panel and an infrared touch module. The infrared touch module includes a circuit board mounted parallelly under the display panel. An array of infrared emitters and receivers arranged along one side of each pair of adjacent sides of the circuit board, and facing a corresponding one of the array of light emitters on the opposite side. A light guide is mounted on each infrared emitter and each infrared receiver, and the light guide one each infrared emitter is operable to guide the light emitted from the light emitter to the corresponding infrared receiver via the light guide mounted thereon.
Abstract:
A mechanism is provided for invoking a multi-library application on a multiple processor system, wherein the multiple processor system comprises a Power Processing Element (PPE) and a plurality of Synergistic Processing Element (SPE). Applications including multi-libraries run in the memory of the PPE. The mechanism comprises maintaining the status of each SPE in the application running on the PPE, where there are SPE agents for capturing the instructions from the PPE in the SPEs that have been started. In response to a request for invoking a library, the PPE determines whether the number of available SPEs for invoking the library is adequate based on the current status of SPEs. If the number of available SPEs is adequate, the PPE sends a run instruction to selected SPEs. After finishing the invocation of all libraries, the PPE sends termination instructions to all started SPEs. IBM confidential
Abstract:
An invoking request processing method in distributed system. The method makes a judgment according to the interface performance of an invoking object, and transforming an invoking request being sent to an intermediate object into a transferring request, which makes the intermediate object only needing to perform the transferring operation for the invoking request. The actual implemental object directly returns the result to the requesting party. And an corresponding distributed system, distributed server and object implementing module are provided. The requesting party may directly obtain the implement result from the actual implemental object by launching only one invocation, which enhanced the requesting efficiency. Meanwhile the intermediate object only needs to implement the transferring interface, which simplifies the development difficulty of the intermediate object.

Abstract:
A fastening device (10) for mounting a first member (12) to a second member, the fastening device includes base member (14) and a resilient spring member (15). The base member includes a contacting plate (141) contacting with the second member, and a receiving channel for (147) receiving a portion of the first member therein. The resilient spring member includes two ends for being attached to a board with the second member mounted thereon, and a middle portion contacted with the first member to sandwich the first member between the second member and the spring member.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to methods, polynucleotides, and polypeptides encoding immunogenic HIV polypeptides derived from different strains within an HIV subtype and/or immunogenic HIV polypeptides from different subtypes. Uses of the polynucleotides and polypeptides in combination approaches for generating immune responses are described. The combination approaches described herein have been shown to induce broad and potent neutralizing activity against diverse HIV strains from multiple strains within a given subtype and against diverse subtypes. Formulations of compositions for generating immune responses and methods of use for such compositions are also disclosed.
Abstract:
This invention provides improved replication-competent adenoviral vectors. The improved vectors have both a hybrid regulatory unit that provides for high level transgene expression. The vectors can be use, e.g., for therapeutic or prophylactic purposes.
Abstract:
A glass-ceramic for substrate of magnetic disks having high strength can be obtained by subjecting to heat treatment a base glass comprising, in terms of weight percent of their oxides, from 65% to 80.0% of SiO2, from 0.5% to 5.0 % of Al2O3, from 13.0% to 19.0% of Li2O, from 1.0% to 7.0% of P2O5, from 0.5% to 10.0% of Y2O3 and from 0.2% to 2.0% of at least one of Sb2O3 and As2O3, and the glass-ceramic comprises Li2O·2SiO2 as the main crystal phase. The glass-ceramic has a bending strength of 230-36O Mpa and a surface roughness of less than 10 Angstroms after final polishing, and is thus suitable for use as substrate of magnetic disk. A process for producing the glass-ceramic is also provided.
