Abstract: Embodiments include in response to monitoring a processor during operation, detecting a first number of core recovery events in the processor, determining that the first number of core recovery events fulfills a first condition for the first core recovery events threshold, and modifying a value of at least one droop sensor parameter of the processor by a first amount. The at least one droop sensor parameters affects a sensitivity to a voltage droop. In response to modifying the value of the droop sensor parameter by the first amount, a second number of core recovery events is detected in the processor. It is determined that the second number of core recovery events fulfills a second condition for a second core recovery events threshold, and the value of the at least one droop sensor parameter is modified by a second amount.

Abstract: It may be necessary to eliminate soot from combustion engine emissions in order to comply with regulatory requirements. It may be desirable to avoid the need for a separate aftertreatment apparatus in order to eliminate soot from combustion engine emissions. A compression ignition engine may be configured to result in combustion having a peak value of equivalence ratio of less than 4.0 at the lift off length of the flame. This may result in particulate emissions of fewer than 1012 particles per kWh.

Abstract: Methods, devices, and systems are provided for allowing a single machine, such as a server, to co-host multi-SIP Archive (SAR) applications offering SIP servlet based products. The concept of a Root Application Router is introduced that is adapted to coordinate other Sub-Application Routers rather than individual SARs. These other Sub-Application Routers are fully fledged Application Routers in their own right, but are unaware of the controlling Root Application Router.

Abstract: Methods, devices, and systems are provided for enhancing the functionality of a communication device, such as a communication endpoint. This provides the ability to enhance less intelligent SIP endpoints with required features to support a richer user experience. Furthermore, the endpoint enhancer may be dynamically pluggable onto an existing network device. This provided pluggability allows a network administrator to add a new SEE template to the network without disrupting the network operation or the operation of previously existing SEEs.

Abstract: The invention relates to a high-efficiency load transportation system for use in the building construction industry. The system utilises a hoisting apparatus (18) installed in an upper story of a building (14) and at least one retractable loading platform (20) removably installable on an underlying storey such that it may extend beyond an edge of the floor of the underlying storey. An arm (24) of the hoisting apparatus may extend beyond a distal end of a retracted underlying loading platform to allow the unimpeded vertical lifting and/or lowering of loads beyond the platform. The hoisting apparatus is used to position each loading platforms on its underlying and reposition each loading platform thereafter. Such an arrangement yields significant reductions in load in/load out times and associated costs. The system also reduces the carbon footprint of the building project by reducing traditional tower crane usage.

Abstract: A rubbery polymer is produced in situ in a cast double base propellant composition.

Abstract: A combustion inhibiting composition for use in conjunction with a solid, gas-generating charge, the composition comprising an organic polymeric material containing an oxygen-containing organic filler compatible with said polymeric material, the oxygen to carbon atom ratio of the composition being at least 1:3.

Abstract: Solid propellant charge bonded directly to combustion inhibition material comprising elastomeric or polymeric material containing a compatible particulate filler material constituting at least 50wt.% of the combustion inhibition material.

Abstract: A method of inhibiting combustion of some of the surfaces of a solid propellant charge for or in a rocket motor comprising bonding to said surfaces an elastomeric compound resistant to permeation by combustible components of the charge, and bonding a combustion inhibiting cellulosic derivative to the elastomeric compound, the cellulosic derivative being spaced from said surfaces by the elastomeric compound. The invention also relates to a rocket motor provided with a solid propellant charge inhibited in accordance with the method.

Abstract: A method of suppressing unstable burning in a solid propellant rocket motor comprising combusting a silicone elastomer with burning of the solid propellant to produce a continuous stream of small silica particles which suppress instability.
