  • Publication number: 20130339976
    Abstract: A method for managing resources of a processor device configured to control an automation installation includes using at least one first operating system and at least one second operating system, which preferably differs from the first operating system, to operate the processor device. The processor device includes at least two processor cores configured to operate the operating systems. The method further includes using at least one processor core to operate each operating system and freely selecting a number of processor cores used to operate the first operating system and a number of processor cores used to operate the second operating system.

  • Publication number: 20120205022
    Abstract: A rubber material is described, modified with a barrier material in the form of a copolymer which can be produced via ring-opening metathesis polymerization of a) at least one olefin monomer selected from the group consisting of monocyclic olefin monomers having one or two endocyclic C—C double bonds and bicyclic olefin monomers having one endocyclic C—C double bond and b) at least one polycyclic olefin monomer having at least two C—C double bonds. The barrier material can be used to reduce the gas permeability of the rubber material.

  • Publication number: 20120149840
    Abstract: Polymerizing an ethylenically unsaturdated monomer in an aqueous medium can produce an aqueous polymer dispersion. The polymerization is in the presence of a dispersant and a metal-carbene complex. The polymerization can also optionally be in the presence of a dispersant, an organic solvent with low solubility in water, or both. The aqueous polymer dispersion resulting from the process can be used to make a polymer powder.

  • Publication number: 20120058332
    Abstract: A barrier coating is described, where a polymer layer of thickness at least 1 ?m is applied on a supportive substrate, selected from polymer foils, paper, and paperboard, and the polymer layer has been formed from a copolymer which can be produced via ring-opening metathesis polymerization of (a) olefin monomers, selected from monocyclic olefin monomers having 1 or 2 endocyclic C—C double bonds and bicyclic olefin monomers having an endocyclic C—C double bond, and (b) polycyclic olefin monomers having at least two C—C double bonds, e.g. a copolymer of cyclooctene and dicyclopentadiene.

  • Patent number: 7917418
    Abstract: An efficient data dissemination method and system for disseminating financial information is disclosed. The system and method designate instruments listed on a reporting market center that have not traded within a pre-defined time period as “dark.” The information for instruments designated as “dark” is suppressed and not reported to the market, through data consolidators, until the instrument trades again or is manually overridden.
