  • Patent number: 11977520
    Abstract: Provided are a computer program product, system, and method for recovering from a pending uncompleted reorganization of a data set managing data sets in a storage. In response an initiation of an operation to access a data set, an operation is initiated to complete a pending uncompleted reorganization of the data set in response to the data set being in a pending uncompleted reorganization state and no other process currently accessing the data set.

  • Patent number: 11923608
    Abstract: An artificial magnetic conductor (AMC) antenna apparatus includes a ground plane and a flexible antenna element layer above the ground plane. The ground plane includes a conductive base surface, a plurality of memory metal wires, and a frequency selective surface (FSS) layer above the base surface, where the FSS layer includes a plurality of conductive patches separated from one another. Each of the memory metal wires electrically connects one of the conductive patches to the base surface. Each of the memory metal wires is rigid in a memory-shaped state, causing the FSS layer to be fixedly spaced from the base surface during operation of the AMC antenna apparatus. The memory metal wires are each flexible in a non-memory-shaped state, enabling the FSS layer to be collapsed towards the base surface when the antenna apparatus is stowed.

  • Patent number: 4740998
    Abstract: A circuit and method for digital recovery of a data clock from an NRZI coded data bit stream. A source clock pulse having a frequency which is an integer multiple of the data bit rate is used to clock a counter. An output of the counter is used as the source of the data clock. The counter is reset at each transition in the NRZI data stream, thereby resynchronizing the data clock with the data stream.

  • Patent number: 4439956
    Abstract: A press lock fascia-cant system for installing on a building roof to secure the roof membrane in a watertight fashion. A cant member is secured to the roof adjacent the building wall and has a spring clip member secured thereto. The edge of the roof membrane extends upwardly over the cant and over the spring clip member and then downwardly along the outer surface of the spring clip member. A fascia member is detachably secured to the spring clip member and presses the roof member into engagement with the cant member and the spring clip member to maintain the roof member therebetween.
