Abstract: The present invention provides a method for program installation that is eliminates the need to download the required program to a host computer as an intermediate step to sending the program to the client processor. In the method disclosed, the client processor has the capability of emulating the configuration of a host computer disk interface and so be in a position to receive the requested program directly. After the program is downloaded and installed on the client processor, the emulation is deactivated and normal operating resumes. The invention provides substantially mirror image functionality so that peripheral devices of the host server can be configured to emulate components of the client processor.

Abstract: A computer system includes one or more single board computers (“SBCs”), that are arranged connectively with a personal computer that acts as a host computer for the entire system. The host computer contains standard I/O and storage devices, including a hard disk drive, video monitor, mouse and keyboard. The SBCs do not contain such devices. Rather, the SBCs are managed using a single GUI utility generated by through the host computer; and the SBCs use one or more partitioned portions of the host computer's hard disk drive as storage. Images may be swapped on and off the SBCs rapidly to reconfigure their respective “personalities”.

Abstract: A presently disclosed network oriented multiprocessing system, concentrated into a small space, uses a LAN (local area network) emulation protocol to transmit data packets directly between processing subsystems of the system via a bus connecting the processing subsystems. The processing subsystems and bus thereby constitute components of a virtual LAN defined by the LAN emulation protocol. The system also contains a storage subsystem which is connected to the same bus and is not a part of the virtual LAN. The spatial concentration of the system allows the bus to be operated at a speed sufficient to enable the processing subsystems to share access to the storage subsystem via the bus for retrieving stored information immediately relevant to program processes being executed in respective processing subsystems.

Abstract: An illumination structure includes an operation button having a front face on which is formed an identifying indication of ‘AUTO’ made by exposing an opalescent synthetic resin to easily penetrate light and the other parts are painted in black. It also includes an illuminating part provided on a back of the operation button, which illuminates a back of the identifying indication, and plural protrusions in a shape of ribs that regulate an intensity of light penetrating through the identifying indication. In this structure, the plural protrusions obstruct and diffuse the light beams that advance from the illuminating part toward the back of the identifying indication, thereby achieving uniform emission of the light beams from the whole identifying indication. Further in the manufacturing process of the operation button, contraction of a front face of the operation button accompanied with coagulation of the synthetic resin is dispersed by the plural protrusions.

Abstract: In concentrated multiprocessor systems conforming to the presently disclosed modular architecture, a host processor and plural client processors are packaged in a single box containing a high speed (short length) bus connecting all of the processors, and data storage resources via the bus. The bus may be of a type commonly used in contemporary single computer systems; e.g. one conforming to PCI specifications. The host processor and associated resources are mounted directly on an integrated circuit motherboard containing the bus and card connectors attached to the bus. The card connectors removably receive integrated circuit cards containing individual client processors. In one embodiment, client processors are configured to be used as workstations or PC's—in a residence, office or small factory environment—relative to users and accessories remote from the system enclosure.

Abstract: This invention provides a system for the prevention of the spread of a computer virus by intercepting outgoing messages from a computer device and determining whether the message is of an acceptable type. The system is provided as a firedoor that compares outgoing messages to a previously established list of approved actions and, if the message does not conform to an approved action on the list, the firedoor blocks transmission and prevents the virus from spreading any further. If a further embodiment, multiple firedoors are applied in a cascaded series to compare the transmission to different acceptance criteria in tandem.

Abstract: The invention disclosed provides a verification circuit and method for sending an operator-generated signal to a frozen remote computer processor that will be distinguished from an unintentional short circuit. The apparatus includes a USB connective cable having a momentary contact switch able to create a series of intentional short circuits that are transmitted to a counter circuit. According to the method of the invention, the user of the computer having a frozen remote processor activates the switch multiple times within a fixed time period so that the counter and associated circuit recognize that an intentional reset request is being sent, and transmit a signal to reboot the processor.
