摘要： A robotic vehicle is disclosed, which is characterized by high mobility, adaptability, and the capability of being remotely controlled in hazardous environments. The robotic vehicle includes a chassis having front and rear ends and supported on right and left driven tracks. Right and left elongated flippers are disposed on corresponding sides of the chassis and operable to pivot. A linkage connects a payload deck, configured to support a removable functional payload, to the chassis. The linkage has a first end rotatably connected to the chassis at a first pivot, and a second end rotatably connected to the deck at a second pivot. Both of the first and second pivots include independently controllable pivot drivers operable to rotatably position their corresponding pivots to control both fore-aft position and pitch orientation of the payload deck with respect to the chassis.

摘要： A system and method for garbage collection in heterogeneous multiprocessor systems are provided. In some illustrative embodiments, garbage collection operations are distributed across a plurality of the processors in the heterogeneous multiprocessor system. Portions of a global mark queue are assigned to processors of the heterogeneous multiprocessor system along with corresponding chunks of a shared memory. The processors perform garbage collection on their assigned portions of the global mark queue and corresponding chunk of shared memory marking memory object references as reachable or adding memory object references to a non-local mark stack. The marked memory objects are merged with a global mark stack and memory object references in the non-local mark stack are merged with a “to be traced” portion of the global mark queue for re-checking using a garbage collection operation.

摘要： A method for identifying hair conditioner-resistant hair-binding peptides is described. The hair conditioner-resistant hair-binding peptides bind strongly to hair from a hair conditioner matrix and are stable therein. Peptide-based benefit agents, such as hair conditioners and hair colorants, based on the hair conditioner-resistant hair binding peptides are described. The peptide-based hair conditioners and hair colorants consist of a hair conditioner-resistant hair-binding peptide coupled to a hair conditioning agent or a coloring agent, either directly or through an optional spacer. Hair care and hair coloring product compositions comprising these peptide-based hair conditioners and colorants are also described.

摘要： Book bindery and trimming apparatus which is directly connectable to the output of a digital printer enable substantially automatic book production. Individual sheets are cut from a printed web, folded and driven into a sheet stacker. The stacker collects the sheets onto a pair of vanes mounted on respective drums until the end of a book is reached. At this point the stacker is moved to its next position(s) and the sheets forming the collected book are deposited on a stack collector. Meanwhile, a new pair of vanes present themselves for book collection. The collected book progresses through a stitcher, for wire stitching, and then to the trimming apparatus. The trimming apparatus has a book path inclined downwardly towards a backstop which, in cooperation with front stop fingers, ensures reliable alignment of the book for trimming.

摘要： A block molded from a polymeric material has a through passageway to contain a percussive shock wave. Angularly related channels communicate with the containment passageway for receiving arcuate segments of detonation cord. Alignment of a plurality of blocks provides a convenient packaging setup for the cord. A percussive signal traveling along the cord can be short-circuited in the packaging setup. A diode version of the block can react to the signal in a given direction of travel.

摘要： Apparatus and method for mixing a fluid dispersion disposed in a container having either a cylindrical or a square shape. The apparatus includes a holding structure having a retaining structure connected to a base. The retaining structure prevents lateral movement of the container both when the container has a cylindrical shape and when the container has a generally square shape with a width substantially equal to the diameter of the cylindrical shape. The apparatus rotates the container about at least one axis.
