  • Patent number: 9870326
    Abstract: A transfer apparatus includes first and second communication paths, an accepting unit, a registration unit, an acquisition unit, and a transfer unit. The accepting unit accepts a request for data. The registration unit detects and registers a range that has been specified for writing. The acquisition unit acquires the data from a memory controller via the first communication path in a case where the request is issued for a registered range, and acquires the data from the arbitration device via the second communication path in a case where the request is issued for an unregistered range. The transfer unit transfers the acquired data. In a case where a first range detected from the arbitration device overlaps at least a portion of or is adjacent to a second range, which has been registered, the registration unit combines the first and second ranges into a continuous range and registers the continuous range.

  • Patent number: 4636681
    Abstract: In a directly heated cathode including a base formed of an alloy containing nickel as its principal component and coated with an oxide of an alkaline earth metal which emits electrons, a layer of a metal selected from the group consisting of nickel, cobalt, platinum and rhodium or of an alloy containing one of these metals as its principal component is formed on both surfaces of the base to one of which surfaces the coating of the oxide is applied, so as to thereby prevent the peeling-off of the coating of the oxide from the base. In order to avoid deformation of the base, a powder alloy containing tungsten and nickel as its principal components, a powder alloy containing molybdenum and nickel as its principal components or one of these powder alloys which is coated with nickel, cobalt or a cobalt-nickel alloy is deposited on the surface of the base to which the coating of the oxide is applied.
