Abstract: An underdrain assembly for filtering particulates from a fluid having an upper structure connected to a bottom plate. At least one flow control vane is positioned between the upper structure and the bottom plate for directing and managing fluid flow through the assembly. The upper structure can have first and second filtration members, the second filtration member positioned between the first filtration member and the bottom plate. The second filtration member can have a shape that restricts fluid flow within the underdrain. The underdrain can have air and water inlets. The water inlet can have an end with a plate covering an upper portion thereof. The end can also include an opening having an angular cut forming an angle with respect to a longitudinal axis of the water inlet. Thus arranged, air is prevented from migrating out the water line. A resilient mounting arrangement for the underdrain is also disclosed.

Abstract: A system for reducing latency in a networking application includes a first clock domain operating at a first clock frequency, where a media access control (MAC) sublayer sends data to a physical coding sublayer (PCS) utilizing the first clock domain. The system also includes a second clock domain operating at a second clock frequency, where data is transmitted on one or more physical medium attachment (PMA) lanes utilizing the second clock domain, and where the first clock frequency and the second clock frequency have a fixed ratio. Data is transmitted from the first clock domain to the second clock domain without buffering the data.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method, apparatus, and system to control the unlocking of an entry for a guest having a wireless device by an owner access point. A virtual key for a wireless device and an access control rule associated with the virtual key may be stored at the owner access point. The owner access point may determine whether a virtual key received from a wireless device matches the stored virtual key and whether the access control rule for the stored virtual key is satisfied. If the virtual key matches, and the access control rule for the stored virtual key is satisfied, the owner access point may transmit an open command to the entry.

Abstract: Queue storage queues event entries from a hardware event detector that are to be communicated to a software event handler. An event register stores a most recently received event entry. A comparator compares a newly received event entry with the content of the event register and if a match occurs, then these event entries are merged by setting a merged entry bit and discarding the newly received event entry. When a non-matching event entry is received, then the unqueued event within the event register is stored into the queue storage. If the queue storage is empty, then the event register and the comparator are bypassed. When the queue storage becomes empty, then any currently unqueued event within the event register is stored into the queue storage. The event entries may be translation error event entries in a system which translates between virtual addresses and physical addresses.
