  • Patent number: 10235483
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method (or a system or a non-transitory computer readable medium) for recreating states of an embedded processing unit of a design under test (DUT). In one aspect, a host system configures an emulator to implement the DUT. The DUT includes the embedded processing unit and a memory unit. The host system configures the emulator to execute design instructions for testing an operation of the DUT through the embedded processing unit. The host system receives a stream of values stored by the memory unit of the DUT. The values indicate execution results of the design instructions executed by the embedded processing unit. The host system stores the stream of the values and generates a log file for recreating one or more states of the embedded processing unit based on the stored stream of the values.

  • Publication number: 20140234123
    Abstract: The invention relates to systems and methods for rapidly and isothermally expanding and compressing gas in energy storage and recovery systems that use open-air hydraulic-pneumatic cylinder assemblies, such as an accumulator and an intensifier in communication with a high-pressure gas storage reservoir on a gas-side of the circuits and a combination fluid motor/pump, coupled to a combination electric generator/motor on the fluid side of the circuits. The systems use heat transfer subsystems in communication with at least one of the cylinder assemblies or reservoir to thermally condition the gas being expanded or compressed.

  • Patent number: 6443893
    Abstract: A device for measuring intraocular pressure includes a remote measuring device that can be implanted in the eye and that contains a pressure sensor, a device that can convert the sensor signals into information that can be transmitted without wires, and a transmitter. The device also includes a receiving device located outside the eye which receives the information transmitted by the transmitter and which is connected to an evaluation device in which the received information is converted into data on the intraocular pressure for recording.

  • Patent number: 5903644
    Abstract: A monaural communication device is composed of a housing for receiving a receiver and a support component which is resiliently connected to the housing and is to be worn binaurally. The support component is constructed symmetrically and the housing and/or the support component is provided with grip elements which, when actuated, make it possible to fold or tilt the support component away from the housing by using the fingers of only one hand, and wherein, when the support component carries out a return movement by means of a spring, the support component clamps the pinna against the housing.
