Abstract: The invention relates to a ferrite antenna, comprising at least one winding (4), which is arranged around a core (2) consisting of ferrite material. A second core (3), consisting of ferrite material and running coaxially to the first core (2), is allocated to the first core (2), which carries the winding (4) and is rigidly fixed in the coil carrier (1). Said second core, which can be displaced in an axial direction in the same coil carrier (1), is positioned in such a way that the opposing front faces of the two cores are placed at a predetermined distance from one another. Said distance can be altered by displacing the second core (3) in an axial direction in order to tune the antenna After tuning, the second core (3) can be fixed in or on the coil carrier (1).

Abstract: When the automatic controls of a number of small automata are synthesized to form large automata, the latter are often difficult to manipulate and for the most part cannot be represented graphically. In order to maintain the applicability of incremental verification techniques, the larger automata are reduced, in accordance with the invention. This is done by modeling the automata in a discrete event system DES and by eliminating from the DES all redundant state transitions, disallowed states, and unimportant selfloops. The novel method is most prominently applicable in control programs and distributed control system controllers.

Abstract: Method for load handling in a multiprocessor system, particularly a multiprocessor system of a communication system, whereby arising jobs can be processed by a plurality of processors under real-time conditions. When individual processors proceed into overload due to locally heavy load situations, then a discharge of the local overload is achieved in that further requests arriving at the processor in this load situation are forwarded insofar as possible or necessary to other processors that are not overloaded.
