Abstract: A solid state switch module is provided for use in a power distribution network including an input differential protection connection for receiving a measured current value from an upstream module. The solid state switch module also includes an output differential protection connection for sending a measured current value. The solid state switch module includes a trip outlet for sending a trip signal to an upstream solid state switch, and a trip inlet for receiving a trip signal from a downstream solid state switch. The trip inlet is operably coupled to the switch. A current sensor measures the current value of a connected power transmission line across the solid state switch module. A summer adds a current input from a parallel module with the current measures by the current sensor. A comparator determines whether an amount of current lost between the solid state switch module and an upstream module is acceptable.

Abstract: A mechanism that provides for communication of heartbeat signals from servers (call agents) to clients (gateways) in a packet telephony network environment. Clients listen for receipt of multicast heartbeats from any of the servers that may be part of a multicast group. A client assigned to a particular server for control messaging, upon failure to receive a response to a message sent to the assigned server and failure to receive a heartbeat from the assigned server, may select a second server from among the servers and re-send the message to the second server. Without receipt of heartbeat signals, the client defaults to a normal retry behavior for re-sending the message first to the assigned server a number of times before attempting to re-send the message to the second server. With receipt of the heartbeat from the second server, the client adopts an aggressive retry behavior by re-sending the message to the assigned server a lesser number of retries before attempting to re-send the message to the second server. The clients use the multicast heartbeats as a hint, allowing them to switch to the more aggressive retry behavior and consequently reduce the time to re-associate with a new server and re-establish a new security association (if IPsec is used), resulting in a drastic reduction in service delay due to server failures.

Abstract translation: 一种机制，用于在分组电话网络环境中提供从服务器（呼叫代理）到客户端（网关）的心跳信号的通信。 客户端收听来自任何可能是多播组一部分的服务器的组播心跳信号。 分配给特定服务器以用于控制消息收发的客户端，在未能接收到发送给所分配的服务器的消息的响应以及未能从所分配的服务器接收到心跳的响应时，可以从服务器中选择第二服务器并重新发送 消息到第二台服务器。 在没有收到心跳信号的情况下，客户端默认为正常的重试行为，以便在尝试将消息重新发送到第二个服务器之前先将消息首先发送到分配的服务器。 在从第二台服务器接收到心跳信号之后，客户端在尝试将消息重新发送到第二个服务器之前，通过将消息重新发送到分配的服务器进行较少数量的重试，从而采取积极的重试行为。 客户端使用组播心跳作为提示，允许他们切换到更积极的重试行为，从而减少与新服务器重新关联的时间，并重新建立新的安全关联（如果使用IPsec），导致 由于服务器故障导致的服务延迟急剧减少。

Abstract: An apparatus for sensing blend segregation in a mixture comprises a light transmissive window disposed within a feed connection between a hopper and an extruder for example, a light source for emitting a light beam, and a light sensor to perform spectrum analysis of any incident light supplied thereto. An illumination assembly has a first end optically coupled to the light source and a second end optically coupled to the light transmissive window to illuminate a portion of the internal path provided by the feed connection. At least one detection assembly is provided, having a first end disposed adjacent to the light transmissive window so as to detect the reflection from any illuminated polymer blend passing therethrough. The light sensor collects the diffuse reflecting light from the polymer blend and transforms the diffuse reflecting light into tri-color signals, reflection curves or the like, for comparison with other diffuse reflecting light so as to determine if a particular blend is segregating.

Abstract: Automatic battery charging apparatus in which a control signal is generated by subtracting a signal representing a fraction of the mains supply voltage from the battery voltage so that the control signal represents the state of charge of the battery irrespective of variations in the mains voltage. The charge is terminated when the rate of rise of the control signal falls below a predetermined value; this condition is sensed by sampling the output frequency of a voltage controlled oscillator whose frequency is directly proportional to the control signal. In one arrangement the output frequency is fed to an up-down counter for a sampling period (2 minutes) with the counter counting up and then, after an interval of 30 minutes, the output frequency is fed to the counter for a further sampling period (1 minute 55 seconds) with the counter counting down. If the counter fails to return to zero at the end of a down count the charge is terminated.
