Patent number: 8086734Abstract: A method and apparatus for selecting a client computer as a relay server to rebroadcast common application information that is broadcast from a server system over a network. The client computer is selected randomly to rebroadcast the User Datagram Protocol (UDP) information received from the server system and client computers receiving the UDP information from another client computer relay server on the network do not rebroadcast the information. If the client computer selected to rebroadcast the common information fails to rebroadcast, another client computer is randomly selected as a relay server and takes over rebroadcasting the common information.Type: GrantFiled: August 26, 2009Date of Patent: December 27, 2011Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Kenji Kobayashi, Takeshi Kuwahara

Publication number: 20090315429Abstract: The present invention provides a rotating electrical machine including a rotor core that does not produce narrow areas in rotor slots even if circumferential ends of fan-shaped segment cores are displaced radially outwardly and circumferentially during operation. In the present invention, slots near circumferential ends of the fan-shaped segment cores are made larger than slots in circumferential intermediate portions of the segment cores. With such a configuration, even if the circumferential ends of the segment cores are displaced radially outwardly and circumferentially during operation, the circumferential ends of the segment cores forming the large slots do not protrude into the slots formed in the circumferential intermediate portions of axially adjacent segment cores, thereby preventing narrow areas from being produced in the rotor slots.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 6, 2009Publication date: December 24, 2009Applicant: HITACHI, LTD.Inventors: Yukiyoshi YANAGISAWA, Takeshi KUWAHARA

Patent number: 6603446Abstract: Disclosed is a configuration of a PDP in which different sustaining discharge signals are applied to odd-numbered ones of X electrodes and Y electrodes and even-numbered ones thereof respectively. Owing to the configuration, the wiring in a drive circuit for driving the X electrodes or Y electrodes is simplified, and a scan driver can be formed with an IC or ICs. A plasma display device has a display panel including first to third electrodes. Sustaining discharge signals that are mutually out of phase are applied alternately to adjoining ones of the first electrodes and adjoining ones of the second electrodes respectively. Consequently, first display cells are defined between the second electrodes and the first electrodes on one side of the second electrodes, and second display cells are defined between the second electrodes and the first electrodes on the other side of the second electrodes.Type: GrantFiled: September 25, 1998Date of Patent: August 5, 2003Assignee: Fujitsu LimitedInventors: Yoshikazu Kanazawa, Takeshi Kuwahara, Haruo Koizumi
