Abstract: An LED light that includes an LED light source. A thermoelectric device is configured to maintain the LED light source within a predetermined temperature range. A controller provides a pulse signal to the LED light source, so that the LED light can particularly operate as a strobe light. Such an LED light can find application in an obstruction light.

Abstract: A system for transferring files between a source location and a target location can transfer different portions of the file across two or more logical channels. The portions of the file transmitted over the logical channels can be transmitted independently. In addition, the portions of the file can be transmitted over one or more logical channels asynchronously. The logic controls for managing the file transfer can be distributed over multiple systems located at separate locations and operating independently. During the transfer of the file, markers are generated that point to the location in memory where the file is stored. These markers obviate the need to store the file in a buffer or an archive log during the file transfer.

Abstract translation: 用于在源位置和目标位置之间传送文件的系统可以跨两个或多个逻辑信道传送文件的不同部分。 通过逻辑信道发送的文件部分可以独立发送。 此外，文件的部分可以通过一个或多个逻辑信道异步传输。 用于管理文件传输的逻辑控制可以分布在位于不同位置并独立运行的多个系统上。 在传输文件期间，生成指向存储文件存储在内存中的位置的标记。 这些标记避免了在文件传输期间将文件存储在缓冲区或存档日志中的需要。

Abstract: Two data storage systems are interconnected by a data link for remote mirroring of data. Each volume of data is configured as local, primary in a remotely mirrored volume pair, or secondary in a remotely mirrored volume pair. Normally, a host computer directly accesses either a local or a primary volume, and data written to a primary volume is automatically sent over the link to a corresponding secondary volume. Each remotely mirrored volume pair can operate in a selected synchronization mode including synchronous, semi-synchronous, adaptive copy--remote write pending, and adaptive copy--disk. Each write request transmitted over the link between the data storage systems includes not only the data for at least one track in the secondary volume to be updated but also the current "invalid track" count for the secondary volume as computed by the data storage system containing the corresponding primary volume. Therefore, once a disaster occurs that destroys the data storage system containing the primary volume, the data storage system containing the secondary volume has an indication of the degree of consistency of the secondary volume. The "invalid tracks" count can be used to determine an appropriate recovery operation for the volume, and can be used to selectively restrict read/write access to the volume when the user decides that synchronization should be required for a write access. Moreover, direct write access to a secondary volume is denied if remote mirroring is not suspended.

Abstract translation: 两个数据存储系统通过用于数据远程镜像的数据链路相互连接。 每卷数据被配置为本地，主要在远程镜像卷对中，或辅助在远程镜像卷对中。 通常，主机直接访问本地或主卷，并且写入主卷的数据将通过链接自动发送到相应的辅助卷。 每个远程镜像卷对可以在所选择的同步模式中操作，包括同步，半同步，自适应复制远程写入挂起和自适应复制盘。 通过数据存储系统之间的链路发送的每个写入请求不仅包括要被更新的辅助卷中的至少一个轨道的数据，还包括由数据存储系统计算出的辅助卷的当前“无效轨道”计数， 相应的主卷。 因此，一旦出现破坏包含主卷的数据存储系统的灾难，包含辅助卷的数据存储系统就会显示辅助卷的一致性程度。 可以使用“无效轨道”计数来确定卷的适当的恢复操作，并且可以用于在用户决定写入访问需要同步时，选择性地限制对卷的读/写访问。 此外，如果远程镜像未挂起，则对副卷的直接写入访问将被拒绝。

Abstract: A device adapter maintains a device polling table in memory that can be dynamically changed in response to disk drive device failures and is updated with each poll so that failed devices can be quickly deleted from the table and alternate device polling mapping can be achieved. A system reconfiguration is not necessary to implement the modifications to the system processing. The device adapter is capable of a greater variety of processing tasks than is conventional, including determining cylinder head position and copying data that otherwise would be performed by a control unit.

Abstract: A method and controller circuitry for coupling a variable access time serial memory device to a microprocessor is disclosed. The controller circuitry includes an input for receiving address signal lines and control signal lines generated by the microprocessor, control signal lines generated by the device, and control signal lines and data signal lines for sending signals to the microprocessor and to the device. The controller circuitry further includes a decoder, responsive to the received address signal lines and control signal lines, for determining if the device can immediately respond to the microprocessor-generated request. If the device can respond to the request immediately the controller circuitry signals the device to respond to the request; otherwise, the controller circuitry responds to the request, and sends signals to the device to prepare the device to respond to future microprocessor-generated requests. The controller circuitry further includes memory to allow it to alter its responses to the microprocessor and its signals to the device dependent upon prior signals it has sent and received.

Abstract: A multiprocessing system having a plurality of processing nodes interconnected by an interconnect network. To optimize performance during spin-lock operations, a home agent prioritizes the servicing of read-to-own (RTO) transaction requests over the servicing of certain read-to-share (RTS) transaction requests, even if the RTO transaction requests are received by the processing node after receipt of the RTS transaction requests. In one implementation, this is accomplished by providing a first queue within the home agent for receiving RTO transaction requests conveyed via the interconnect network which is separate from a second queue for receiving RTS transaction requests. The queues may each be implemented with FIFO buffers. A home agent control unit is configured to service a pending RTO transaction request within the RTO queue before servicing an RTS transaction request in the second queue, even though the RTS transaction request was received by the processing node from the interconnect network prior to receiving the RTO transaction request.

Abstract: A system and method for resource recovery in a distributed system uses a resource audit service to monitor the status of a client that receives a resource from a service that allocates the resource. The allocating service registers a callback with the resource audit service identifying the client. The resource audit service subsequently monitors the status of the client. When the resource audit service determines that the client has failed, the resource audit service performs the callback to the allocating service indicating the failure of the client. Upon receiving the callback, the allocating service is able to recover the resource from the client.

Abstract: Datapath elements 1.sub.1 to 1.sub.N can exchange data respectively with local memories 2.sub.1 to 2.sub.N through data buses 6.sub.1 to 6.sub.N, so that parallel operations can be performed. The data bus 6.sub.1, which is connected with one datapath element 1.sub.1, can be connected with the other data buses 6.sub.2 to 6.sub.N through an interconnection network 5, so that by activating one datapath element 1.sub.1 only, data exchange can be made with all of the local memories 2.sub.1 to 2.sub.N through the data buses 6.sub.1 to 6.sub.N and the interconnection network 5. Thus, the multiple datapath elements can perform the parallel operations with being related with the multiple local memories: and a simple configuration is employed such that one datapath element can access to any one of the local memories.
