摘要:
A data-processing system and method include a processor core associated with a cache controller. A plurality of cached memory components is associated with the processor core and the cache controller. A cached processor is provided, which supports a plurality of varying sizes of instruction and data cache, wherein the cached processor comprises a processor core separated from the cache controller and the plurality of cached memory components, thereby permitted the cached processor to support varying sizes of cache memory in a flexible memory arrangement thereof.

A fluorescence based assay for compounds that modulate T-type calcium ion channels and that can be adapted to high throughput screening formats. Modulators of T-type channels are useful to correct functional abnormalities. These abnormalities are associated with epilepsy, pain, schizophrenia, depression, anxiety, cardiac arrhythmia, hypertension, certain types of cancer, diabetes, infertility, sexual dysfunction and other undesirable conditions.

A vane assembly for a gas turbine engine is disclosed having lower thermally induced stresses resulting in improved component durability. The stresses in the vane assembly airfoils are lowered by increasing the flexibility of the vane platform and reducing their resistance to thermal deflection. This is accomplished by placing an opening along the vane assembly rail that reduces the effective stiffness of the platform, thereby lowering the operating stresses in the airfoils of the vane assembly. A removable seal is then placed in the opening in order to prevent undesired leakages, while maintaining the benefit of the increased platform flexibility.

Method for densifying porous carbon preforms. The method including: providing an apparatus charged with at least one stack of annular porous carbon-carbon composite preforms, the preforms being separated from one another by spacers emanating from a passive heat distribution element centrally located within a cylindrical space formed by the stack of annular preforms; locating the charged apparatus in a furnace at a temperature of 950-1100° C. and a pressure of 5-40 torr; and circulating a carbon-containing gas reactant through the apparatus for 150 to 900 hours. Also, an apparatus for practicing this method. The preforms are densified with less physical damage due to the weight of the preforms being treated than are preforms made by otherwise identical processes that do not separate preforms from the preforms immediately above and below them by spacer elements comprising tabs or shelves emanating from a central passive heat distribution structural member.
摘要:
The amount of resources utilized by one or more connections of a communications environment is obtained. A determination is then made as to whether one or more of the connections is using a predominant amount of the resources. If a particular connection is using more of the resources than desired, then action is taken with respect to that connection.
摘要:
The present invention relates to salts of organic acid, in particular salt of nateglinide, combined preparations comprising one or more salts of nateglinide and, optionally, one or more additional ingredients and the use thereof in pharmaceutical compositions for preventing or treating diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, or conditions associated therewith.
摘要:
A protective case which includes two mating case components and a liner extending between a peripheral area for mating engagement to ensure a relatively sealed relationship when the case components are closed. A latch face is a single elongated element on the front and has two spaced interlocking components to cooperate with hooks in the opposite case component.
摘要:
A portable light intended for mounting on a garment as support includes two LED light sources spaced apart towards the rear of the portable light. A clipped base below on anchor facilitates locating a garment between the anchor and the base, and a spring action urges the base toward the anchor. A hingedly movable head for the LEDs is mounted on the housing to move to and form the housing. An opening of the housing causes a switch in the housing to move between an opened and closed position such that a circuit actives or de activates the LED lights when the head opens or closes relative to the housing.
