摘要： The application programming interface operates in an environment with user interface software interacting with multiple software applications or processes in order to synchronize animations associated with multiple views or windows of a display of a device. The method for synchronizing the animations includes setting attributes of views independently with each view being associated with a process. The method further includes transferring a synchronization call to synchronize animations for the multiple views of the display. In one embodiment the synchronization call includes the identification and the number of processes that are requesting animation. The method further includes transferring a synchronization confirmation message when a synchronization flag is enabled. The method further includes updating the attributes of the views from a first state to a second state independently. The method further includes transferring a start animation call to draw the requested animations when both processes have updated attributes.

摘要： Techniques to generate partial display updates in a buffered window system in which arbitrary visual effects are permitted to any one or more windows (e.g., application-specific window buffers) are described. Once a display output region is identified for updating, the buffered window system is interrogated to determine which regions within each window, if any, may effect the identified output region. Such determination considers the consequences any filters associated with a window impose on the region needed to make the output update.

摘要： A technique for logically connecting local communications networks (CNs) that may be separated by wide area networks containing routers and other network components. A logical link is formed between two devices called tunnelers, such that, once a tunnel has been established between two CNs, other devices on the CNs can communicate. The tunneling mechanism of the invention requires that each CN have only one active tunneler at any particular time, referred to as the designated tunneler, and each of the tunnelers is configured to have knowledge of the identities of the other tunnelers. A tunnel is established after a successful exchange of messages between two tunnelers, and then traffic may be forwarded through the tunnel in a transparent manner. The tunneling mechanism permits messages to be forwarded between CNs separated by a wide area network containing routers. Moreover, the mechanism permits filtering of traffic, such that only selected types of traffic, or messages for selected destinations or from selected sources, are forwarded through tunnels. The tunneling mechanism inherently precludes the formation of closed communication loops. An alternate embodiment of the invention optimizes the configuration process for particular network topologies.

摘要： A digital system has a main memory 10 with a main memory access (DMA) unit 11 through which data channels 12, 13 are coupled to the memory. A processor system (processor 14, RAM data memory 15, instruction memory 16) is also coupled to the memory through a read/write buffer 20, each read stalling the processor for typically 5 cycles. For block reads, a block memory read unit 25 is connected in parallel with the path between the read/write buffer 20 and the DMA unit 11. This block read unit can be set from the processor 14 with a block start address and a block length passed as writes through the read/write buffer 20. The block is read (first phase) word by word from the main memory via the DMA unit into a memory 28 in the block read unit. The processor then sends a command to the block read unit as a read through the read/write buffer, which then writes the block word by word directly into the memory 15 (second phase), using the processor's local data and address buses 17 and 18 and disabling the processor's address buffer 32.

摘要： A node operating in a network using the International Standard Organization (ISO) High-Level Data Link Control (HDLC) network protocol includes a mechanism for encoding information such that frames including the encoded information can be correctly interpreted by nodes operating in either of the standard 16-bit or 32-bit ISO-HDLC operating modes. The encoding mechanism produces a preliminary frame check sequence by encoding the information in an encoder using a generator polynomial G.sub.48 (x), which is a combination of the generator polynomials G.sub.16 (x) and G.sub.32 (x) which are used to produce frame check sequences for nodes operating in 16-bit or 32-bit modes, respectively. Before the information is encoded, the encoding mechanism sets the encoder to an initial condition using an initializing polynomial I.sub.48 (x). The preliminary frame check sequence is further encoded by adding to it a complementing polynomial C.sub.48 (x). The result is a 48-bit frame check sequence. The encoding mechanism appends the 48-bit frame check sequence to the information, and transmits the information and the appended 48-bit frame check sequence over the network as part of a frame.

摘要： In the use of microwave energy to remove moisture from a moving web, such as that moisture contained within transverse glue lines between superimposed sheets of the web for the purpose of holding the sheets together, the web is passed through a serpentine wave guide having a number of serially connected sections spanning the path of travel of the web. The microwave energy takes the form of standing waves within the wave guide, and the peaks of such waves represent "hot spots" of energy concentrations at which points maximum molecular agitation of the moisture is obtained so as to likewise obtain maximum drying effect. If the standing waves are simply tuned until resonance occurs, there is a considerable likelihood that the wave peaks of one section of the wave guide may become lined up with those of the other wave guide sections, hence producing several distinct lines of energy concentrations along the path of web travel. To counteract this and distribute the drying effects of the microwave energy over substantially the full width of the moving web, various alternative means are provided for disrupting the standing wave pattern so as to cause the peaks to oscillate along the guide sections and thereby continuously change the random location of the peaks.

摘要： Compression shorts are provided with a sleeve having an opening at a proximal end of the sleeve that communicates with an opening in the crotch area of the shorts. The sleeve is attached to the crotch area of compression shorts by an elastic engagement of the shorts with the sleeve at a proximal end of the sleeve. A flap is joined to the sleeve. The girth of the sleeve and is expanded or contracted by locating and attaching an end of the flap against the sleeve. A distal end of the sleeve comprises a closure flap to permit covering or uncovering a distal opening in the sleeve, and to adjust the useful length of the sleeve.
