Abstract: A method is disclosed for determining a current temperature of a heating element with a PTC thermistor property (PTC) with which a urea-water solution for cleaning the exhaust gas in an internal combustion engine of nitrogen oxides can be heated. According to the invention there is provision that a correction factor is formed from the quotient of a minimum resistance of the heating element and of a minimum resistance of a reference heating element, in that a resistance which is determined at a current temperature of the heating element is multiplied by the correction factor, and in that the current temperature of the heating element is determined from the corrected resistance value and a temperature dependence of the resistance of the reference heating element. The method according to the invention permits more precise determination and regulation of the temperature of the heating element.

Abstract: A timestamp unit and a communication control unit for a user station. The timestamp unit includes a memory, which cyclically stores a timestamp of a message, which is transmitted via a communication network, an address counter, which is incrementable with each storing of a timestamp of a message, so that the value of the address counter corresponds to an address at which the timestamp is stored in the memory, a first interface to a host control unit via which the timestamp of a message is capturable, and a second interface to a communication control unit, which creates or reads at least one message for/from the user station, the interface including a connection for receiving a trigger signal from the communication control unit, which prompts the capturing of a timestamp, and a connection for transmitting a signal to the communication control unit, which includes the value of the address counter.

Abstract: In the field of IT, and in particular to distributed data storage across a plurality of storage servers, the disclosed distributed backup method includes the following steps: dividing the data so as to obtain data blocks; determining, for each block, a particular server from the plurality of storage servers; and memorising each block in the determined server. The determination of the particular server is a function of a current time instant. It can also be a function of a private key of the user. The key is used to form a mask. The latter is offset as a function of the current time instant. Then, the offset mask and the complementary mask thereof are applied, respectively, to two server distribution tables in order to identify the servers to be used for each of the data blocks. The blocks can change servers at each new time instant.
Abstract: A method for calibrating flow meters for fluid media comprises the steps of guiding a medium (102) through a reference measuring section (101-1) and a test measuring section (101-2) which has a flow meter to be calibrated, establishing at least approximately identical and constant pressure and flow conditions for the medium (102) in both measuring sections (101-1, 101-2), detecting a reference throughflow of the medium (102) through the reference measuring section (101-1) and throughflow values which correspond temporally thereto and are measured by the flow meter (125) to be calibrated of the test measuring section at a preset medium temperature, comparing the detected reference throughflow through the reference measuring section (101-1) with the throughflow values which correspond temporally thereto of the flow meter (125) to be calibrated, in order, based on this, to determine at least one correction value for the calibration of the flow meter (125) at the preset medium temperature, and determining of the
