A planar electronic device includes top conductors on a top side of a planar substrate connected to conductive vias and defining top conductor groups and bottom conductors on a bottom side connected to corresponding vias and defining bottom conductor groups. The conductors and vias define primary and secondary conductive loops with the top conductor group including at least one primary top conductor and at least one secondary top conductor and with the bottom conductor group including at least one primary bottom conductor and at least one secondary bottom conductor. The top conductors within each group have substantially similar layouts that are different from layouts of the immediately adjacent groups, and the bottom conductors within each group have substantially similar layouts that are different from layouts of the immediately adjacent groups.

A multilayer inductor device includes a planar substrate, a ferrite body, and an outer and an inner conductive coil. The substrate includes plural dielectric layers with the ferrite body is disposed in the substrate. The outer and inner conductive coils are helically wrapped around the ferrite body. The outer conductive coil includes first upper conductors, first lower conductors, and first conductive vias vertically extending through the substrate and conductively coupled with the first upper and lower conductors. The inner conductive coil includes second upper conductors, second lower conductors, and second conductive vias vertically extending through the substrate and conductively coupled with the second upper and lower conductors. The inner conductive coil is disposed between the outer conductive coil and the ferrite body.

A method, apparatus, and system are directed toward managing a system that includes a cluster and an external resource. The external resource may be part of a second cluster that is collocated on the same hardware platforms as the cluster. A proxy resource is used to enforce a dependency relationship between a native resource of the cluster and an external resource, such that a dependency with the proxy resource serves to enforce a dependency with the external resource. The cluster framework may maintain states of the proxy resource, including an offline state, an online-standby state, and an online state. The online-standby indicates that the proxy has been started, but it has not determined that the associated external resource is enabled. The proxy may determine whether the external resource is enabled or disabled and, in response, notify the cluster framework.

Provided is a method of arranging particles on a substrate, the method including: (a) preparing a substrate, a surface of which has depressions or projections capable of fixing the positions and/or orientations of one or more particles; and (b) placing the particles on the substrate and applying a physical pressure to the particles so that a portion or the whole of each particle is inserted in each of pores defined by the depressions or the projections. Provided is also a method of arranging particles on a substrate, the method including: (a) preparing a substrate, at least a surface portion of which has adhesive property; and (b) placing particles, which do not have flat facets but curved surfaces, on the substrate and applying a physical pressure to the particles so that the particles are immobilized on adhesive surface portions of the substrate.

An arrangement for clamping a flat plate to a flat surface includes juxtaposing the plate to the flat surface. An axially-movable wedging element defining a surface fitted with wedges is fixed against motion in other than a direction of elongation, and is forced to move in the direction of elongation. The wedges are forced against a first spring beam to impart forces thereto. The forces are coupled from the first spring beam to a second spring beam by intermediary supports. The second spring beam bears against a surface of the flat plate to force the plate against the flat surface.

The present invention describes a method and system for managing high-availability-aware components in a networked computer system. In particular, the method includes registering components and dynamically allocating roles and assignments to one or more of the registered components to achieve a desired level of redundancy based on component type information. The method may include an additional step of performing administrative actions on the registered components in response to a request from an external management agent in order to increase the availability of services provided by the high-availability-aware components. Further, the method may additionally include responding to an error by changing roles and assignments of one or more of the registered components, providing information to registered components so that related components may communicate to achieve a desired redundancy level, and/or maintaining additional information relevant to managing high-availability-aware components. Such additional information may include information regarding software release domains, component relationships, and/or protection groups.
摘要:
For testing a device under test (“DUT”) a test specification is converted in a computer system by a pin vector generator process, which includes generating test vectors. The DUT has numerous input pins and such a pin vector is for a signal to drive one such pin. The pin vectors are compressed and saved. Ones of the pin vectors are loaded, upon initialization of a test, into a pipeline having a series of memory stages and extending from the computer system to channel cards in a test head. The pipeline is operated in data transfer cycles, delivering W bits per cycle. The pin vectors are decompressed at the respective channel cards in decompressor read cycles. X bits are read per decompressor cycle, W being greater than X, so that the pipeline may perform its data transfer cycles less frequently than the decompressor performs its read cycles.
