Abstract: Disclosed herein are novel washing compositions, for example hair compositions, comprising, in a cosmetically acceptable medium, at least one nonaminated silicone with a viscosity lower than 100,000 cSt, at least one anionic, nonionic, or amphoteric detergent surfactant, and at least one drawing polymer. These compositions may have an improved styling effect.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to novel washing compositions, such as hair compositions, comprising, in a cosmetically acceptable medium, at least one particle with a melting point of greater than 70° C., at least one detergent surfactant chosen from anionic, nonionic and amphoteric surfactants, and at least one drawing polymer, as well as a method of treatment using the compositions. These compositions have an improved styling effect.

Abstract: A web-based traffic notification service permits end users to select travel routes and automatically receive notification of routes having the fastest travel times. The service can be provided by a website configured to display an interface that allows users to create accounts for storing personal travel information. The travel information includes origin, destination, way point, and departure time data for trips selected by the user. For each trip, alternative routes are designated. At or near the selected departure time of a trip, travel times for the alternative routes are computed using real-time traffic data. The user is then automatically notified of the route having the fastest travel time using an email or voice message. The service can be configured so that the user is notified only when the travel time of a user-defined preferred route is longer than a secondary alternative route.

Abstract: A data processing system is comprised of: a system bus having a main memory coupled thereto; multiple high level cache memories, each of which has a first port coupled to said system bus and a second port coupled to a respective processor bus; and each processor bus being coupled through respective low level cache memories to respective digital computers. In the high level cache memories, data words are stored with respective tag bits which identify each data word as being stored in one of only four states which are shared, modified, invalid, or exclusive. In the low level cache memories, data words are stored with respective tag bits which identify each data word as being stored in only one of three states which are shared, modified or invalid.

Abstract: A multi-level distributed data processing system includes: 1) a system bus having a main memory coupled thereto; 2) multiple high level cache memories, each of which has a first port coupled to the system bus and a second port coupled to a respective processor bus; and, 3) each processor bus is coupled to multiple digital computers through respective low level cache memories. Further, each low level cache memory stores data words with respective tag bits which identify each data word as being shared, modified or invalid but never exclusive; and, each high level cache memory stores data words with respective tag bits which identify each data word as being shared, modified, invalid, or exclusive.

Abstract: A method of testing a fuel system of an internal combustion engine comprises measuring the instantaneous speed of a component of a pumping apparatus of the system this speed decreasing as fuel is pressurised to achieve fuel delivery to the engine as compared with the nominal engine speed due to "wind up" in the drive to the engine. The speed profiles obtained as fuel is supplied to each injection nozzle and compared to determine if the injection nozzles are working correctly.

Abstract: Disclosed is a circuit for locking a harmonic-rich oscillator, such as the crystal-controlled type, to provide as its output, a signal at a designated frequency characterized by minimum harmonic content and high stability. The circuit includes a combination of gates in the oscillatory feedback path controlled by single-shot multivibrators with time constants such that any tendency of the period of the output signal to compress or expand is overridden by the respective expansion or compression thereof by the appropriate single-shots.
