In a computer system executing a dynamically configurable operating system, a symbol definition image file builder is provided for building a symbol definition image file real time for utilities and application programs. The symbol definition image file is built upon receipt of an open request for the file and a current system definition image file does not exist. The symbol definition image file is deleted upon receipt of a close request for the file and it is determined that the file is no longer referenced and non-current. The symbol definition image file comprises all current symbol definitions and strings of the operating system. The current symbol definitions and strings are gathered by the symbol definition builder from the symbol and string tables of the root executable segment and the relocatable segments of the operating system that are currently loaded in memory. Additionally, prior to building the symbol definition image file, the symbol definitions image file builder inhibits automatic unloading of the relocatable segments until all accesses to the symbol definition image file are completed, thereby protecting the symbol definitions and the strings that are included in the symbol definition image files from becoming stale.

A document printed marking including a first information marking including first luminescent taggants having a first luminescence wavelength band; and a second information marking printed at least partially on the first information marking at an overlap location. The second information marking includes second different luminescent taggant having a second different luminescence wavelength band. The second luminescence wavelength band is spaced from the first luminescence wavelength band such that the first information marking and the second information marking are substantially luminescently non-intrusive with each other at the overlap location.

The present invention discloses a compact solid state protector unit which comprises an inner insert structure, and an outer cover member having an open base end and adapted to be removably disposed over the insert structure, and a base member adapted to releasably seal the open base end of the cover member. The inner insert structure is constructed and arranged to support the components of a protector circuit mounted thereon in insulated spaced relationship. The disclosed protector circuit comprises two bidirectional solid state voltage sensitive switch devices with an associated ground terminal, two variable resistance devices, and line protector means for protecting the solid state protector unit from high voltage transients and abnormal currents. In the preferred embodiment disclosed, the cover member is provided with telephone line side test access holes and the contact pins of the protector unit are constructed and arranged to permit the protector unit to be disconnected from the central office equipment while maintaining contact with the telephone line side to permit testing.

A system and method for automating the transfer of real estate. A centralized server or servers are connected to a distributed computer network that is connected between a plurality of client computers. A real estate record is created on the centralized server and information is received on the server from a plurality of sources including real estate databases, computer input devices, facsimile equipment, and electronic mail systems. The centralized server is integrated with a multiple listing service wherein information can be automatically exchanged therebetween. Fax or email communications may include documents for storage on the server. The fax or email sender enters a record identifier wherein the server recognizes the record identifier and determines whether it matches an existing real estate record. If so, the server converts the document to digital form if necessary and saves it to the matching real estate record.

Hardware and software improvements in workstations which utilize virtual addressing in multi-user operating systems with write back caches, including operating systems which allow each user to have multiple active processes. In virtual addressing, multi-user workstations, system performance may be improved significantly by including a virtual address write back cache as one of the system elements. Data protection and the reassignment of virtual addresses are supported within such a system as well. Multiple active processes, each with its own virtual address space, and an operating system shared by those processes in a manner which is invisible to user programs. Cache "Flush" logic is used to remove selected blocks from the virtual cache when virtual addresses are to be reassigned.

Improvements in workstations which utilizes virtual addressing in multi-user operating systems with write back caches, including operating systems which allow each user to have multiple active processes directed to the support of alias addresses, i.e., two or more virtual addresses which map to the same physical address in real memory Specifically, alias addresses are created so that their low order address bits are identical, modulo the size of the cache (as a minimum) for user programs which use alias addresses generated by the kernel, or wholely within the kernel. For alias addresses in the operating system, rather than user programs, which cannot be made to match in their low order address bits, their pages are assigned as "Don't Cache" pages in the memory management unit (MMU) employed by workstations which utilize virtual addressing.
