Abstract: An object code expansion program inserts new instructions and data between preexisting instructions and date of an object code file; offsets are modified to reflect new positions of the preexisting instructions and data. For each item of preexisting object code (instructions or data), the following steps are performed: making a new code block comprising any desired new instructions and the item, and storing it as new object code; tracking the location of the item and the new code block within the new object code; and tracking items that contain inter-item offsets. Then, each inter-item offset is updated using the new location of the item or new code block, as required. Finally, offsets in symbol tables and relocation structures are updated with the new location of the item.

Abstract: A cooking device which has at least one water feeder, at least one drain and at least one exhaust connected to the cooking chamber includes an arrangement for registering and measuring the amount of water that is supplied to the cooking device and the amount of liquid being discharged from the cooking device in the form of water, steam and moisture.

Abstract: An insulating glass door for a cooking chamber of a cooking appliance is formed by an insulating glass window composed of two individual panes which are spaced apart for forming an interspace therebetween, which is sealed by an insulating material. The door includes at least one door component which is integrated and extends between the two spaced-apart panes.

Abstract: A combustion system and a method for adapting the combustion system to utilize a first fuel when the system has been designed for a second fuel. The method and system provide inlets for adding air to lower the quality of the first fuel to the quality of the second fuel or inlets for adding a third fuel of a higher quality than the second fuel to raise the quality of the first fuel to the level of the quality of the second fuel.

Abstract: A system for electronically monitoring scaling in an apparatus for heating and/or evaporating a liquid, comprising a container for at least temporarily receiving the liquid. The container comprises a liquid inlet, a liquid outlet and/or a vapor outlet and a heating element for evaporating liquid from the container. An evaluation unit is connected to at least one liquid level indicator and at least one flowmeter. A value relating to a desired filling volume of the container can be inputted into the evaluation unit and/or can be stored therein. The desired filling volume can be compared to a nominal liquid level in the evaluation system when water is constantly added by the flow meter, whereby the nominal liquid level is detected by the liquid level indicator, or to a nominal filled-in quantity detected by the flowmeter when the liquid flow indicator regulates the level of the filled-in liquid.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for cleaning a cooking chamber of a cooking apparatus has at least one nozzle pivotably connected to a base, which is detachably connected on a wall of the cooking chamber in an area of a supply line for a liquid which is forced through each spray nozzle to cause a rotation of the nozzle and a pivoting of the nozzle around a pivot point to spray surfaces of the cooking chamber.

Abstract: In an apparatus and a method for cleaning the inside of a cooking device having a cooking chamber and a blower chamber separated from the cooking chamber via air baffles, an impeller is arranged in the blower chamber for generating a conveying stream in the cooking chamber as well as in the blower chamber, whereby at least one spray nozzle for spraying at least one fluid, such as a cleaning agent, rinse agent, clear rinse agent, decalcification agent, water and/or the like, faces toward the impeller, whereby the spray jet of the at least one spray nozzle in the blower chamber is directed opposite the conveying stream of the impeller.

Abstract: An insulating glass door for a cooking chamber of a cooking appliance is formed by an insulating glass window composed of two individual panes which are spaced apart for forming an interspace therebetween, which is sealed by an insulating material. The door includes at least one door component which is integrated and extends between the two spaced-apart panes.

Abstract: A cooking device has a cooking chamber, a ventilation device in the form of a ventilating fan wheel or the like and a heating device plus a catalyst. Air from the cooking chamber, including greasy vapors, odor particles, and/or hydrocarbons, can be directed in a finely-atomized form onto the catalyst by the ventilation device. The catalyst purifies the air directed thereon and releases energy in the form of heat during purification, which heat can be distributed inside the cooking chamber by the ventilation device.

Abstract: A method for cooking in a cooking device which has a cooking chamber and a measuring device to detect variables pertaining to a given state of food which is being cooked. The variables vary according to the cooking process. The cooking process is carried out according to at least one measured value corresponding to a cooking state variable. The cooking process is also carried out according to one of several values corresponding to a derivative of a cooking state variable obtained as a function of a duration of the cooking process.

Monitoring instructions are added the computer program so that during execution of the program, data may be collected regarding the program execution. The collected data may be automatically sent to a remote system or site for analysis. The monitoring instructions create little or no performance impact on the client yet provide valuable information to the developer of the program. Additionally, the monitoring instructions may be changes during computer program development.
