  • Publication number: 20150381498
    Abstract: A network system includes a plurality of first computers, which transmit and receive data via a network and are equipped with a plurality of active and standby communication paths. A second computer is connected with the first computers via the network. Each first computer acquires path information concerning active and standby communication paths in the network and traffic of the active communication path and transmits them to the second computer. The second computer: predicts a load on each network node when the communication path is to be switched to each standby communication path; selects a first computer, whose communication path should be switched, and a standby communication path, which is a switching target, based on the prediction result; and requests the first computer to switch the communication path to the standby communication path.

  • Publication number: 20140016223
    Abstract: According to one embodiment, a magnetic disk device includes an initial calculation module and a simple determination module. The initial calculation module, in a simple determination expression describing a magnitude relation between a first value calculated from a first half part of the burst data and a second value calculated from a second half part of the burst data, starts a calculation of the first value before the reading of the second half part of the burst data is completed. The simple determination module performs a determination by the simple determination expression after the reading of the second half part of the burst data is completed.

  • Patent number: 5207210
    Abstract: An engine with a row of cylinders is provided with two intake ports and intake valves and two exhaust ports and exhaust valves for each cylinder. The intake ports are arranged on one side of a center line of the row of cylinders, adjacent to each other, and side by side in a direction parallel to the cylinder row. The exhaust ports are arranged on another side of the center line, adjacent to each other, and side by side in the direction parallel to the cylinder row so that their centers are located at a distance apart which is larger than a distance at which centers of the intake ports are separated. The cylinder is formed with a "squish" surface between the exhaust ports which provides a squish area between the cylinder head and piston. This produces a squish or compressed flow of the air-fuel mixture to the exhaust ports in the combustion chamber.

  • Patent number: 5205265
    Abstract: An exhaust gas recirculation system of an engine equipped with a supercharger has an exhaust gas circulation passage for circulating exhaust gas into an intake system from an exhaust system, and a return passage for returning exhaust gas introduced into the exhaust gas circulation passage to the exhaust system. The exhaust gas circulation passage is made available to the exhaust gas when the engine operates within a specified area of engine operating conditions in which supercharging is to be effected. The return passage is made available to the exhaust gas when the engine operates within an area, other than the specified area, of engine operating conditions.

  • Patent number: 5203311
    Abstract: Disclosed is an exhaust gas recirculation system for an engine having a high compression ratio or with a supercharger. An outside EGR duct connecting the exhaust system to the intake system is provided with a first control valve, which has a second outside EGR duct bypassing the first control valve. The second EGR duct has a second EGR control valve and a cooler. When the engine exists in an extremely low load state, the first and second control valves are closed to inhibit the outside EGR. In the light load state, the first control valve is opened while the second control valve is closed, thereby allowing recirculation of the EGR gases having high temperature and reducing the pumping loss.

  • Patent number: 4142492
    Abstract: An exhaust gas purification system for use in an internal combustion engine equipped with a dual exhaust system. The exhaust gas purification system includes a secondary air supplying port of a secondary air supplying passage opened into selected one of a first or second group of exhaust pipes, while an exhaust gas deriving port of an exhaust gas recycling passage for recycling the exhaust gases to an upstream of the carburetor throttle valve is provided in the exhaust line at a downstream from the above secondary air supplying port for effective suppression of NOx through accurate control of the amount of exhaust gases to be recycled.
