Abstract: Embodiments provide systems and techniques for testing the functionality of a network architecture having multiple redundant internet protocol (IP) networks. An example system includes a first IP network having a first network device, and a second IP network having a second network device. The system also includes a computing device coupled to the first IP network via the first network device and to the second IP network via the second network device. The first network device is configured to selectively forward first packet(s) of the IP media traffic flow to the computing device when the first packet(s) satisfies a first predetermined condition. The second network device is configured to selectively forward second packet(s) of the IP media traffic flow to the computing device when the second packet(s) satisfies a second predetermined condition.

Abstract: An approach is provided for coalescing network commands in a GPU that implements a SIMT architecture. Compatible next network operations from different threads are coalesced into a single network command packet. This reduces the number of network command packets generated and issued by threads, thereby increasing efficiency, and improving throughput. The approach is applicable to any number of threads and any thread organization methodology, such as wavefronts, warps, etc.

Abstract: An improved process for separation of valuable components of a waste stream resulting from production of an olefin polymerization procatalyst by the addition to the waste stream of a separation solvent of intermediate boiling point, subjecting the resulting mixture to a first distillation zone to separate the desired waste stream components from the upper portion of the zone and passing the bottoms product to a second distillation zone wherein separation solvent is recovered from the upper portion of the zone for recycle and passing the bottoms product to disposal or further processing.

Abstract: A process for the treatment of flyslag from the gasification of coal is described, the process being characterized, in one embodiment, by mixing of the flyslag with a cementitious material and a residual waste stream from a coal gasification process, the waste stream containing particulate flyslag solids. A composition comprising flyslag and a cementitious material, in specified proportions is also disclosed.

Abstract: A process for the gasification of coal is described which comprises partially combusting particulate coal in a gasification reactor comprising a gasification zone and a water bath and producing a hot gaseous stream containing synthesis gas and flyash, and slag, in the gasification zone. The slag produced is allowed to discharge from the gasification zone into the water bath, the redox potential of the water bath being formulated or maintained at a level sufficient to inhibit sulfide presence or inclusion in the slag.

Abstract: A process for the treatment of flyslag from the gasification of coal is described, the process being characterized, in one embodiment, by mixing of the flyslag with a cementitious material, a composition capable of converting sulfides in the flyslag at least to sulfur, and an aqueous waste stream from the gasification of coal, in specified proportions. A composition comprising flyslag, a cementitious material, and a composition capable of converting sulfides in the flyslag at least to sulfur, is also disclosed.
