  • Patent number: 7433904
    Abstract: Various systems and methods for buffer memory management are disclosed. In one embodiment a buffer memory includes at least one queue configured to store a number of buffer access tasks. Buffer reclamation logic is executed to free at least one segment of the buffer memory holding an amount of stale data. Buffer reclamation logic is also included that enables the buffer reclamation logic to submit a buffer access task to the buffer memory based upon a total number of the buffer access tasks stored in the at least one queue.

  • Publication number: 20050150160
    Abstract: A process of recommending crop varieties based on management categories. The management categories are determined by utilizing indices, which measure the economic implication of physical and chemical properties of a specific soil type in a region. The management categories may then be indicated graphically by indicia overlaying digitized soil maps, each of the indicia grouping soil types within a management category. Each crop variety is characterized by how the crop variety performs in each of the management categories. Each of the crop varieties may then be assigned an indicium of the management category for which it is adapted.

  • Patent number: 6312776
    Abstract: A multi-layer closure liner for carbonated beverage containers and the like, including a gas barrier layer, a first tie layer on an upper surface of the gas barrier layer, a second tie layer on a lower surface of the gas barrier layer, a first polyolefinic resin layer on the upper surface of the first tie layer, and a second polyolefinic layer on the lower surface of the second tie layer. In the preferred embodiment, the gas barrier layer is ethylene vinyl alcohol copolymer (EVOH), the first and second tie layers are functionalized polyolefin and the first and second polyolefinic resin layers are ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA). The layers defining the closure liner are preferably simultaneously formed using a co-extrusion process to prevent the gas barrier layer from being exposed to moisture.

  • Patent number: 6194042
    Abstract: In order to provide a liner which can be used in place of existing type liners used in a closure for a container, a multiple layer liner sheet is coextruded in a manner wherein the outer layers are skin layers formed of a gas permeable material. These layers enclose a gas barrier layer and a foamed layer which respectively prevent the invasion of oxygen from the ambient atmosphere and remove oxygen from the head space to safeguard the contents of the container. The foamed layer provides the liner with the required resiliency, provides space for the inclusion of an adequate amount of oxygen scavenging material, and also provides a cellular structure which allows the gas molecules the freedom to move and quickly come into contact with the oxygen scavenging material.

  • Patent number: 5847540
    Abstract: A rechargeable flashlight has a plug unit supported in the flashlight housing for rotation between a non-charging position, in which blades of the plug unit are retracted into the housing, and a charging position, in which the blades are projected from the housing for insertion in an AC outlet. The plug unit cooperates with a switch unit in the housing for connecting a rechargeable battery to a bulb circuit and disconnecting the battery from a charging and indicating circuit when the plug unit is in the non-charging position, and for disconnecting the battery from the bulb circuit and connecting the battery to the charging and indicating circuit when the plug unit is in the charging position. The charging and indicating circuit has a visual indicator that is energized repetitively when the plug unit is turned from the non-charging position but with the blades not inserted in a live AC outlet, and which is energized continuously when the blades are inserted in a live AC outlet.
