Abstract: A pneumatic device for the variation of a contour of a seat bearing surface of a vehicle seat is disclosed. The pneumatic device includes a first foil portion, a second foil portion which is connected to the first foil portion along at least one connecting seam such that a bladder for the variation of the contour of the seat bearing surface, having a bladder chamber which can be filled with pressure medium and having an inflow opening for the inflow of the pressure medium, is formed, and a throttle element, which is arranged in the interior of the bladder chamber and which is designed to throttle a pressure medium flow flowing in through the inflow opening.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus, including computer program products, for monitoring and discovering process executions in a distributed computer system. A central system receives process data items that have been collected by an agent, identifies a process instance with which each process data item is associated, groups the process data items that are associated with a first process instance into a first group, and generates a reconstruction of the first process instance based on the process data items in the first group. The central system can further use the reconstructed first process instance to model a process. Additionally, the central system can further use the reconstructed first process instance to monitor a process instance.

Abstract: The invention is directed to a stereomicroscope having a specimen changer which is at least so configured that it is rotatable about a column of a column stand and the specimen changer has receptacles for specimens arranged on a circular path passing through the viewing beam path. The specimen changer includes an inner stationary part and an annular-shaped outer part which includes the receptacles for the specimens. The specimen receptacles have a diameter suitable for receiving commercially available petri dishes.

Abstract: A walking beam furnace comprises a hearth formed by fixed and walking beams disposed with their axes in the feed direction. Both the walking beams and the fixed beams are divided at positions spaced apart in the feed direction into sections, and each section of each beam is staggered relative to the adjacent section. As a result, the material to be annealed comes into contact with the cooled fixed beams at different positions at each of the conveying pauses and temperature balancing takes place at the points of contact.
