    摘要: A digital content vending machine, DCVM (10), in which a client (12) on a personal computer, PC (14), contains an infrastructure (16) and an inventory (18). The infrastructure (16) and inventory (18) may both be stored in a hard drive (20), or the inventory (18) may instead be stored on a removable media (24), such as a CD (16), DVD (28), or tape (30). The infrastructure (16) presents a graphical user interface on the client (12) which metaphorically resembles a village (46) containing a plurality of stores (44) operated by vendors (42). Customers (40) shop in the stores (44) by selecting assets (22), constituting the inventory (18), and sending money (52) and an identifier (54) to a clearing house (50) via a communications system such as telephone (118), private network (120), or the Internet (122). The clearing house (50) returns a key (58) used to at least partially remove a digital wrapper (60) protecting the asset (22) from unauthorized use. A master server (48) may also be provided to update the infrastructure (16) and inventory (18), and to provide additional keys (58) used to remove the digital wrappers (60).

    摘要: A data communication system for communicating data between a bus running at a first clock frequency and a circuit block operating synchronously with the data bus at a second clock frequency. The system includes a clock generator for generating a bus clock signal at the first clock frequency and a chip clock signal at the second clock frequency wherein the first and second clock signal frequencies are in the ratio of (N-1):N where N is an integer greater than 1 and wherein the bus and chip clock signals are synchronized once every N cycles of the chip clock signal. The clock generator also generates a synchronization signal indicating the chip clock signal cycle in which the bus and chip clock signals are synchronized. The circuit block includes an interface circuit for receiving and transmitting data on the bus. The system also includes circuits connected to each circuit block for identifying a chip clock signal cycle in which data cannot be transmitted by the circuit block on the bus and a chip clock signal cycle in which data cannot be received by the circuit block from the bus, there being one of each type of cycle in each contiguous block of N chip clock cycles.

    摘要: A rug or mat cleaning apparatus is disclosed which is comprised of first a dry lint and dust removing section, then a water or like liquid containing vessel having an initial wash section and then a rinse section and then finally a wringer section. A mat to be cleaned is passed through a first conveying roller at a slower driving speed. Thereafter, the mat or rug enters an increased speed brush which both removes dirt and agitates the surface of the rug and beats it to knock loose undesireable dirt and like particles. In the wash section of the apparatus, alternating feed rollers and brush rollers carry the mat or rug to be cleaned. Each feed roller clamps and holds the rug to prevent slipping while conveying it at a slower linear speed. Each brush roller provides a brushing surface having a substantially higher linear speed than the surface of the conveying rolls. Thus, a "tuck" or crease is created in the rug between each high speed roller brush and its adjacent and following slower conveying roll. A wringer is provided at the end of the apparatus to remove extraneous water from the rug after its cleansing. Pressure belts are provided above the cleaning brushes for enhanced cleaning and operation. A special beater roller with projecting ridges is also included.

    摘要: An apparatus and method is disclosed for reducing the computational overhead incurred by a host processor during packet processing and improving network performance by adding additional functionality to a Network Interface Controller (NIC). Under certain circumstances the NIC coalesces multiple receive packets into a single coalesced packet stored within a coalesce buffer in host memory. The coalesced packet includes an Ethernet header, a coalesced Internet Protocol (IP) header, a coalesced Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) header, and a coalesced TCP payload containing the TCP payloads of the multiple receive packets. By coalescing received packets into fewer larger coalesced packets within the host memory, the host software needed to process a receive packet will be invoked less often, meaning that less processor overhead is incurred in the host.

    摘要: A window processing system is disclosed for fabricating window frames. A welding station has welding heads to weld or fuse vinyl frame parts together. The frames are taken to a cleaning station having a number of cleaning heads that are independently actuated to move into a position relative selected portions of the window frame to clean off burrs, weld beads etc from the welded window frame. The cleaning process involves both training of a controller to recognize certain frame profiles and a compensation process for adjusting the cleaning process for individual variations in the frame that occur during fabrication. Real-time cleaning involves coupling a visual sensor to a moving support that also supports a cleaning tool.
