Abstract: A filter device has a compact filter made of a filter material that is wound spirally. A star filter that is made of a filter material that has folds arranged in a star shape surrounds the compact filter. The filter device has a cylindrical shape. A fluid to be filtered passes the compact filter in an axial direction and the star filter in a radial direction. The filter device is exchangeable and is mounted in a filter housing such that the compact filter and the star filter have a common raw side and a common clean side that are separated from each other.

Abstract: Memory management includes identifying a region of virtual memory to be reclaimed, the region including an object that is currently located at an original virtual memory location, and the region being supported by at least a portion of a memory resource; relocating the object from the original virtual memory location to a target virtual memory location; releasing the portion of the memory resource so that the portion of memory resource can be reused; and after the portion of the memory resource is released, replacing a reference of the object that points to the original virtual memory location with a reference of the object that points to the target virtual memory location.

Abstract: Preempting the execution of a thread is disclosed. Preempting includes receiving an indication that a preemption of the thread is desired and context switching the thread out at a thread safe point in the event that a thread safe point is reached.

Abstract: A plastic end disk for a filter element has a disk-shaped-section sealing an end face of a star-pleated bellows and has a hollow-cylindrical section extending away from the disk-shaped-section. An inner side of the hollow-cylindrical section radially seals the plastic end disk on a receiving pin by an O-ring. The hollow-cylindrical section has noses arranged on the inner side that extend into the interior the hollow-cylindrical section. The noses house an O-ring. The noses include first noses extending in a first plane parallel to the disk-shaped-section and second noses extending in a second plane that is spaced apart from the first plane in axial direction. The first noses are displaced relative to the second noses such that the first noses, when projected axially onto the second plane, and the second noses do not overlap and an undercut-free configuration of the plastic end disk is provided.

Abstract: A panel-like/sheet-like finishing element (11) for covering floors and walls, for example in the renovation of old buildings, is provided with heat-insulating and sound-absorbing properties if its interior (15) is provided, between outer covering layers (12, 13), with channel-forming undulating supporting structures (16) filled with high-density coarse granules (21). The supporting structures (16) are connected to the covering layers (12, 13) along the vertex lines (17) so as to provide wet-strength action, and the interior (15), between these covering layers, is sealed by enclosing edging strips (19) to provide wet-strength action, with the simultaneous inclusion of moisture-tight, but vapour-permeable, supporting layers (20) on covering layers (12, 13). If this finishing element (11) is mounted vertically, the granule-filled channels (14) run horizontally.
