摘要:
Inoperable phase change memory (PCM) blocks in a PCM device are remapped to one or more operable PCM blocks, e.g. by maintaining an inoperable block table that includes an entry for each inoperable PCM block and an address of a remapped PCM block. Alternatively, the PCM blocks may be remapped by storing the address of the remapped block in the block itself, and setting a remapping bit that indicate the block has been remapped. Where the remapping is performed by a processor, an inoperable block bit may be set in a translation look aside buffer that indicates whether a virtual memory page is associated with an inoperable or remapped PCM block. When a request to access a virtual memory page is received, the processor references the inoperable block bit associated with the virtual memory page to determine whether to check for remapped PCM blocks in the inoperable block table.

A system and method for accurately controlling a printing process regardless web width or printing layout. A user interface is provided for configuring a printing application that includes a plurality of sensors arranged to form an interface region. The sensors are configured to generate feedback indicating user interaction with the interface region. A controller is configured to map the plurality of sensors into virtual keys based on at least a columniation of the printing application and adjust parameters of the printing application based on the feedback.

A hole saw for cutting standardized holes in the web portion of an I-joist features a light weight three spoke body having a rim with continuous circumference and three inserted cutting blades fixed in an offset to the circumference, which is dimensioned in accordance to standard web heights.

A flat flywheel body fabricated by water jet cutting has radial spoke pairs with a display hanger slot in between and flywheel weights circumferentially extending at their peripheral ends. Resilient thin attachment rims for the saw blades are circumferentially connecting the flywheel weights and provide together with them a continuous peripheral sliding surface. A two piece arbor is connected to a central continuous spline of the flywheel body. The peripheral saw blades are bent into concentric curvature by radially clamping them onto the blade attachment rims.

An actuation and reaction socket tool features a reaction coupling that is slid onto the spline flange of a power torque wrench prior to attaching the actuation socket on the drive shaft of the torque wrench and prior to securing it with a well known safety pin. The reaction coupling is then coupled to the reaction socket via circumferentially arrayed and interlocking castles on both the reaction coupling and reaction socket. A lock plate spring loaded snaps into grooves on the inside of the castles and axially locks the reaction coupling with the reaction socket. At least one of the reaction coupling and reaction socket is axially withheld by the central actuation socket such that the entire tool system remains connected to the torque wrench. To remove the tool again, the reaction coupling and reaction socket are first decoupled, which provides access again to the safety pin for its removal.

Drive plates of a hydraulic torque wrench cartridge are thickened for extended surface contact with three pawls and a direct contact with the piston rod. The drive plates are held together and are additionally stiffened by dowel pins and shoulder screws. Snap pins are axially slide able and spring loaded connecting the piston rod with the drive plates in an easily disengage able fashion. Three pawls are arrayed in a pitch adjusted with respect to the ratchet teeth pitch in correspondence with an elastic deformation of the drive plates for a balanced force transfer across them. The pawl-tooth interfaces are also in an outward opening angle preventing them from snapping free under load.

摘要:
Power consumption of computing devices are monitored with performance counters and used to generate a power model for each computing device. The power models are used to estimate the power consumption of each computing device based on the performance counters. Each computing device is assigned a power cap, and a software-based power control at each computing device monitors the performance counters, estimates the power consumption using the performance counters and the model, and compares the estimated power consumption with the power cap. Depending on whether the estimated power consumption violates the power cap, the power control may transition the computing device to a lower power state to prevent a violation of the power cap or a higher power state if the computing device is below the power cap.

Disclosed are systems and methods of managing financial transactions such as the prepayments of loans. Various embodiments of the invention allow a lender to pay a prepayment credit to a borrower under certain conditions, and under other conditions for the borrower to pay a prepayment fee to the lender. Prepayment credits and fees may be calculated using various formulas that account for changes in a value of the debt and/or changes in financial conditions such as interest rates. Any prepayment fees may be subject to limitations configured to avoid settlement of debt for less than fair market value and to avoid undesirable accounting consequences associated with prepayment.

A road surface scanning device and method for scanning a section of road in order to acquire road surface data, which in turn can be used to create a mathematical model of the road. In one embodiment, the road surface scanning device includes a frame, a carriage movably mounted to the frame, a scanner movably mounted to the carriage, and a pair of electric actuators that can move the scanner across the road surface. Information from adjacent scanner passes are electronically stitched together and, in a similar manner, information from adjacent surface segments are electronically joined to form a mathematical model of the road. Various techniques can then be used to process the road surface data and prepare it for use by other software applications.
