Abstract: An anomalous arc discharge detection apparatus, including multiplicity of ultrasonic detectors placed at different sections of a plasma processing chamber such that an ultrasonic wave accompanying an anomalous discharge is detected by the ultrasonic detectors at different propagation times or with different delay times. The detected signals are compared with each other on the same time axis to obtain the maximum range of variation of the detected waveforms and the differences in delay time of the respective ultrasonic detectors. From the comparison of the maximum range of variation and the delay times of the ultrasonic detectors, the position of the source point, and the level as well, of the anomalous arc discharge are determined, which can be displayed on a monitor and utilized to issue an alarm if necessary.

Abstract: A trunk switch of a trunk cluster for connecting a plurality of edge devices to each other, where each edge device can communicate with all the other edge devices through all of the trunk switches. Each trunk switch contains an intra cluster port and intra cluster links connect the intra cluster ports of different trunk switches. When an edge device becomes disconnected from one trunk switch, but is still connected to another trunk switch, the trunk switch from which it has become disconnected transfers the data destined for the disconnected edge device to the intra cluster port which then transfers that data to another trunk switch. The another trunk switch, upon receiving the intra cluster data, then forwards that data to the edge device which has become disconnected from the first trunk switch.
