Abstract: A surgical instrument for anastomosis of first and second blood vessels includes a housing having distal and proximal ends, a handle and a disposable loading unit removably mounted to the distal end of the housing. The loading unit includes upper and lower fastener support members having a passage defined therethrough for receiving an end of the second blood vessel and configured to releasably support a plurality of surgical fasteners. The loading unit also includes a retractable anvil located at a distal end of the loading unit, the anvil being movable relative to the fastener support member in response to actuation of the handle to simultaneously deform the of surgical fasteners.

Abstract: A new and useful wireline extensometer is provided that uses a tensioned cable extending between a supply spool and an anchor (e.g. of a type connected to a slope mass), measures movement of the cable to reflect movement of the anchor (e.g. due to movement of the slope mass), and includes a magnetic brake configured to provide a predetermined constant non-frictional braking force on the supply spool. The preferred wireline extensometer is designed to (i) minimize the risk of the extensometer reporting data that suggest slope movement where the slope mass has not moved to an undesirable extent, (ii) measure slope movement at relatively slow rates as well as rapid rates, and to (iii) measure slope mass movements continuously, and in a manner that can be efficiently and effectively communicated to responsible personnel.

Abstract: A packaged article, especially a respiring foodstuff such as cheese which generates or releases gas during storage, and a permeable multilayer biaxially oriented film suitable for allowing escape of such gas while minimizing transfer of oxygen across the film which has a thin layer of a blend of EVOH and nylon. In a preferred embodiment the low cost film having a high permeability to CO2 and low O2 permeability is used to package cheese.

Abstract: A method, apparatus, and article for solving the year 2000 problem involves limited modifications in the data definition portions of the source code and compiler support for processing the modified source code. Fields in the source code that contain a year or date values are identified and, for each such field, the user selects an appropriate technique (for example, expansion, compression or windowing). The user modifies the data definition for each identified field, by adding new attributes to request the selected technique. The user then compiles the program and resolves any ambiguous references to the variables whose definitions were modified. This procedure is applied, module by module, and each processed module is merged into production, after testing, by using a compiler option to disable the use of the new attributes. A compiler option provides for the generation of debugger hooks for each statement that has been affected by modified declarations, which may be used with a suitably equipped debugger or other run-time analysis tool.

Abstract: A lock for the locking of a sliding closure. The lock includes a housing (10) with a pair of hook shaped locking elements (11) which are mounted for counter-rotation within the housing. A handle (26) is mounted for rotation on the housing and is coupled to a gear wheel (23) which meshes with a pair of rack elements (30,32) which are located for sliding movement in the housing (10). A projection (34) from each rack element (30,32) engages in a curved slot (35) of the locking element (11). Consequently, rotation of the handle (26) results in a sliding movement of each of the racks (30,32) which causes the locking elements to move between a first position where the locking elements are substantially retracted in the housing (10) and a second position where the locking elements can latchingly engage with a strike.

Abstract: A disposable flavored filter attachable to the mouth end of a cigarette comprises an insertion end and a mouth end. A first interior portion of the filter, at and adjacent to the insertion end, defines a void space of the filter, while a second interior portion of the filter, at and adjacent to the mouth end, defines one or more segments. In a single-segment embodiment of the invention, flavorant is injected into, or a flavor-containing capsule is inserted into, the single segment. In a two-segment embodiment of the invention, the flavorant is injected into, or the flavor-containing capsule is inserted into, that segment disposed between the void space and the segment at the mouth end of the filter.

Abstract: The capability of base power units which have phase switching capabilities which can be controlled upon sensing the power condition and status of other base power units is taken advantage of to provide a modular scalable power assembly. The base power units, which are preferably identical, are inserted into a plurality of slots so as to be pluggable into a circuit backplane which automatically provides the requisite interconnections between the base power units. The power assembly of the present invention is particularly useful in supplying power to scalable parallel processing computer systems.

Abstract: A resource manager in a client/server computer network controls the availability of system resources. A system administrator generates a set of profiles which specify which system resources each user may employ for each of multiple application programs. Individual application programs may internally configure their possible choices of such system resources according to the appropriate profile on a dynamic basis.

Abstract translation: 客户端/服务器计算机网络中的资源管理器控制系统资源的可用性。 系统管理员生成一组简档，其指定每个用户可以为多个应用程序中的每一个应用哪些系统资源。 单个应用程序可以在动态的基础上根据适当的配置内部配置其可能的这种系统资源的选择。
