A number of remotely located locked devices (26 and 27) are selectively operated by sending signals from a central supervisory location (28) through the telephone network (27) to a telephone set 32 and a converter (44) installed at each remote location. Initiating call signals from a remote telephone set are automatically generated and routed through the telephone network to a supervisory telephone set equipped with a standard 0-9 digit dial plus a special pushbutton (34) for generating a special signal. Receipt of the special signal at a calling remote station disconnects the remote telephone set and conditions a stepping circuit (74-86) and a sequence circuit (81-82) for subsequent operation upon receipt (88-104) of a predetermined sequence of 0-9 digit signals. Upon receipt of the predetermined sequence of signals within a first set time period, the stepping circuits and the sequence circuits are operated to generate (111) a signal that releases the locked device for a second set time period.

A is a duel processor system (100) with duplicated memory (114,124) has two modes (10,11) of operation: a converged mode (10) in which one of the two processors (101,102) is active and executing all system tasks while the other processor is inactive; and a diverged mode (11) in which both processors are active and independently executing different tasks. The system automatically changes modes in response to requests such as manual and program control and certain system fault conditions. In diverged mode, the system may be in either of two states of operation (1 and 2). In one state (1) one processor (101) is designated a primary processor, and in the other state (2) the other processor (102) is designated the primary processor. In the converged mode the system may be in either of four states of operaton (3-6). In two of these states (3,4) one processor is active while the other processor is standing by ready to take up execution of tasks from the point where the one processor stoped execution. In the other two of these states (5,6) one processor is active while the other processor is out of service and cannot take up task execution without being initialized. The system 100 makes transitions between the various states in response to requests. Except for transitions of an active processor to an out-of-service condition, the state transitions are transparent to tasks other than fault recovery programs and, upon a fault condition, the faulted program.

In a processing system (100) that swaps processes between a main memory (114 or 124) and a pair of duplicated disks (132, 142), system processing capability is protected against loss of access to both system-essential duplicated disks. Upon loss of access to one duplicated disk, processes designed as essential to the system's operation and not resident in the main memory are swapped into the main memory from the other duplicated disk. All essential processes are then locked into the main memory to prevent their removal therefrom. Thus the essential processes remain accessible to the processing system even upon loss of access to both of the disks. Upon loss of access to both of the disks, the system may undergo reconfiguration in an attempt to regain access to at least one of the disks. If reconfiguration fails, non-essential processes are killed and the system continues processing using only the essential processes. Upon restoration of access to one of the disks, the restored disk is initialized from tape and the system is then bootstrapped from the restored disk, and normal processing is resumed. Upon restoration of access to the second disk, the second disk is repopulated from the first disk and the essential processes are unlocked from the main memory.

An apparatus for supporting utility lines extending between a vehicle and a trailer comprises an elastically deformable rod having a first end and a second end, an attachment feature for attaching utility lines to the apparatus, and a mounting base for mounting the apparatus to a surface. The attachment feature is disposed or configured to be disposed proximate the first end of the rod. The mounting base is disposed or configured to be disposed at the second end of the rod. In another embodiment, the apparatus comprises a first portion comprising a shaft having a first and a second end, a second portion integral with the first portion comprising a spring, an attachment feature for attaching utility lines to the apparatus configured to be disposed proximate the first end of the shaft, and a mounting feature associated with the second portion for mounting the apparatus to a surface.
摘要:
The method uses statistical information obtained by running the computer code with test data to determine a new ordering for the code blocks. The new order places code blocks that are often executed after one another close to one another in the computer's memory. The method first generates chains of basic blocks, and then merges the chains. Finally, basic blocks that were not executed by the test data that was used to generate the statistical information are moved to a distant location to allow the blocks that were used to be more closely grouped together.
