Abstract:
There is disclosed a method and apparatus for handling transaction buffer overflow in a multi-processor system as well as a transaction memory system in a multi-processor system. The method comprises the steps of: when overflow occurs in a transaction buffer of one processor, disabling peer processors from entering transactions, and waiting for any processor having a current transaction to complete its current transaction; re-executing the transaction resulting in the transaction buffer overflow without using the transaction buffer; and when the transaction execution is completed, enabling the peer processors for entering transactions.
Abstract:
This invention provides a request controlling apparatus, processor and method. The request controlling apparatus is connected to a request storage unit and includes: a queue unit storing flag recording region configured to record a storing flag corresponding to a queue unit in the request storage unit, a comparing means configured to judge whether a incoming first queue unit corresponds to a same message as an already existing queue unit, where the already existing queue unit is in the request storage unit and a flag setting means is configured to set the storing flag corresponding to the already existing queue unit in the queue unit storing flag recording region, to indicate that a message state related to the already existing queue unit will not be stored if the first queue unit corresponds to the same message as in the already existing queue unit.
Abstract:
A catalyst for the oxidation of an alkane, alkene or mixtures thereof. The catalyst includes a mixed-metal oxide having the formula MoaVbNbcTedSbeOf wherein, when a=1, b=0.01 to 1.0, c=0.01 to 1.0, d=0.01 to 1.0, e=0.01 to 1.0, and f is dependent upon the oxidation state of the other elements, the catalyst further characterized by having at least two crystal phases, the first crystal phase being an orthorhombic M1 phase and the second crystal phase being a pseudo-hexagonal M2 phase, the orthorhombic M1 phase present in an amount between greater than 60 weight percent to less than 90 weight percent. The catalysts disclosed herein exhibit a chemisorption of NH3 of less than about 0.2 mmole per gram of metal oxide.
Abstract:
Provided are processes for making one or more unsaturated oligomeric acids and one or more saturated hydrocarbons. In one form, a process for making one or more saturated hydrocarbons includes oligomerizing one or more unsaturated carboxylic acids having from 4 to 38 carbon atoms in the presence of a molecular sieve catalyst to form one or more unsaturated oligomeric acids including less than 90% by weight of cyclic oligomers, and hydrogenating the one or more unsaturated oligomeric acids via contact with hydrogen in the presence of a hydrogenation catalyst to form one or more saturated hydrocarbons. The oligomerizing of unsaturated fatty acids is from renewable biological sources to form dimer acids. The one or more saturated hydrocarbons are useful as lubricant base oils.
Abstract:
The electrodesulfurization of heavy oil feedstreams is accomplished wherein a heavy oil feedstreams, along with hydrogen, is passed the cathode side of an electrochemical cell wherein the organically bound sulfur compounds in the heavy oil are reduced and the sulfur is released as hydrogen sulfide. The hydrogen sulfide can be fed directly into the anode side of the electrochemical cell to produce sulfur and hydrogen or it can be passed to an oxidation zone containing an aqueous solution of an oxidized metal salt.

Abstract:
A method for making an organometallic treated molecular sieve is described in which a molecular sieve having at least one hydroxyl group and at least [AlO2] and [PO2] tetrahedral units and having an average pore dimension less than or equal to about 5 Å is contacted with a solution comprising an organometallic compound and a non-proton donating solvent. The resulting organometallic treated molecular sieve has enhanced ethylene and/or propylene selectivity when used in the conversion of organic oxygenates to olefins. The ethylene and/or propylene selectivity, as well as catalyst life, are further enhanced when the resulting organometallic treated molecular sieve is combined with an oxide of at least one metal selected from Groups 2, 3 and Group 4 of the Periodic Table.
Abstract:
An apparatus includes a substrate with a cavity and a two-stage resonator filter fabricated over the cavity. The two-stage resonator filter includes a first stage and a second stage. The first stage includes a first resonator and a second resonator, the second resonator acoustically coupled to the first resonator. The second stage includes a third resonator and a fourth resonator, the fourth resonator acoustically coupled to the third resonator. The second resonator and the third resonators are electrically coupled. A decoupling layer couples the first resonator and the second resonator. The decoupling layer extends between the third resonator and the fourth resonator. The first resonator and the fourth resonator are above the substrate. The decoupling layer is above the first resonator and the fourth resonator. The second resonator and the third resonators are above the decoupling layer.
Abstract:
A method for the post synthesis modification of molecular sieves with organometallic reagents. The method may be used for large pore molecular sieves and small pore molecular sieves, such as SAPO-34. SAPO-34 is a useful catalyst for the conversion of oxygenates, such as methanol, to olefins. Post synthesis organometallic modification improves catalyst performance and increases light olefin selectivity in the conversion of methanol to olefins.
