摘要:
An Enhanced Processor Buffered Interface (22c) for use in a multiprocessor system (10). The Enhanced Processor Buffered Interface executes an Atomic Fetch and Add operation for maintaining multiprocessor consistency and for minimizing the required participation of an attached processor (22a) in reading and writing locked memory locations, supports interleaved memory banks (22d) that operate with burst mode memory accesses at rates of up to 400 MBytes/sec, includes switchable state machines (52, 54, 100) to selectively provide wait-states as required for supporting different memory access timings, and furthermore provides an improved serial interface to an external multi-element LED display (110).
摘要:
A differential pressure brake system for a vehicle with one master cylinder and booster assembly operating the rear wheel brakes and another such assembly operating the front wheel brakes. Each booster is controlled by its own valve, which is in turn controlled by signals from a logic module receiving vehicle deceleration demand signals and wheel deceleration and/or wheel velocity signals. A single brake pedal acts through a force sensor and a whiffletree to provide for mechanical master cylinder operation and reaction. The pressure chambers in the boosters are operated to change the direction of differential pressure generated force from a brake release direction to a brake apply direction when the boosters are operated.
摘要:
The present invention relates generally to an apparatus for and a method of measuring and selecting grain for use in milling, or seed for use in plant breeding. Said method is adapted to optically analyze seeds/grains to qualitatively and quantitatively characterize the seed/grain, and more particularly, to analyze the gradation of color, whiteness, and hard endosperm of the seed/grain. This method and apparatus perform color image analysis of seed/grain sample(s) to characterize multiple quality traits.

Masking films, having the advantageous properties of both those masking films having an intermediate adhesive layer and those masking films having a high-adhesion masking layer without an intermediate adhesive layer, include a masking layer which incorporates a cellulose ester component, a polyurethane and one or more colorants selected from dyes and pigments.
摘要:
A cryoprobe for use in cryosurgery and other applications comprising a rigid outer tube, an inner coolant inlet tube. a short rigid penetrating segment extending distally from the distal end of the outer tube and a helical-shaped baffle having a heating element disposed about the outer surface of the inlet tube. The baffle is adapted to produce turbulent fluid flow improving heat transfer and is able to warm target tissue during rapid freezing and thawing cycles.

摘要:
A multiprocessor data processing system (10), and a method of operating same, so as to provide efficient bandwidth utilization of shared system resources (24, 26). The system includes a plurality of processor nodes, each of which includes a data processor (22a, 28a). A first step of a method buffers data written by a data processor to a first bus (23a), prior to the data being transmitted to a second bus (32). Also buffered are byte enable (BE) signals generated by the data processor in conjunction with the data written by the data processor. A next step performs a main memory (26) write operation by transmitting the buffered data to the second bus; responsive to the stored BE signals, also transmitting a control signal for indicating if a memory write is to be accomplished as a read-modify-write (RMW) type of memory operation; and transmitting the stored BE signals to the second bus. A further step couples the data, the RMW signal, and the BE signals from the second bus to a third bus (24) for reception by the main memory.
