Patent number: 8848587Abstract: Multicasting network packets is disclosed. A total number of copies of a frame, t, to be sent is determined. A number of copies of the frame, m, which is less than a total number of copies of the frame, t, to be made during a current iteration is determined. M copies of the frame are made. The m copies of the frame are then sent to their destinations. The original input frame is provided as output with an indication that the frame should be returned for further processing. Processing of the frame is discontinued during an interval in which other frames are processed. The process is repeated until t copies have been sent.Type: GrantFiled: April 23, 2004Date of Patent: September 30, 2014Assignee: Alcatel LucentInventors: Mark A. L. Smallwood, Michael J. Clarke, Mark A. French, Martin R. Lea

Patent number: 7835397Abstract: A technique is disclosed for generating a plurality of output frames based on a single input frame. An input interface is configured to receive at least a portion of the input frame. An output controller is configured to receive, for each of the plurality of output frames, a new header, and combine each new header with at least a portion of the input frame. An output frame may be generated for which no corresponding input frame exists. An input interface is configured to receive an indication that the output frame should be generated. An output controller is configured to receive a generated header and combine the generated header with a dummy payload to form the output frame.Type: GrantFiled: April 23, 2004Date of Patent: November 16, 2010Assignee: Alcatel-Lucent USA Inc.Inventors: Michael J. Clarke, William James Lockhart, Martin R. Lea, Mark A. French

Patent number: 6944256Abstract: Optimizing statistics counter use is disclosed. A total number of counter bits to be used to track two or more statistics is determined. The total number of counter bits is allocated among the two or more statistics to provide for each statistic a counter comprising the number of bits allocated for that statistic, the allocation being such that each counter overflows at a rate desired for that counter. The overflow rates may be balanced, such that each counter overflows at approximately the same rate.Type: GrantFiled: April 23, 2004Date of Patent: September 13, 2005Assignee: Alcatel IP Networks, Inc.Inventors: Mark A. L. Smallwood, Michael J. Clarke, Mark A. French, Martin R. Lea

Patent number: 6383119Abstract: A one-piece molded plastic vehicular enclosure for children is disclosed. The vehicular enclosure, which can either be a car or truck configuration, has a length substantially greater than its width and height. The enclosure includes opposing top and bottom surfaces and opposing side surfaces inner connecting the top and bottom surfaces. The enclosure further includes opposing front and rear surfaces extending between the top and bottom surfaces and side surfaces. The rear surface includes a rear entry opening for ingress and egress of children into and out of the enclosure. The rear entry opening is defined by a cylindrical extension projecting from the rear surface. The rear entry opening has a height and width substantially equal to the distance between the top and bottom surfaces to facilitate ingress and egress into the enclosure by children. Preferably, the rear entry opening is sufficiently large to permit two children to pass one another during ingress and egress relative to the enclosure.Type: GrantFiled: April 21, 2000Date of Patent: May 7, 2002Assignee: Soft Play, L.L.C.Inventors: Don F. Cattoni, Michael J. Clarke, Jonathan E. Brooks, Bradley B. Hobday, Michael S. Jaeb, Keith C. Nagelski

Patent number: 5588973Abstract: A fuel composition which comprises a major amount of a liquid hydrocarbon fuel and, in an amount to provide detergency, a polyisobutene (PIB) succinimide derived from the reaction of a polyisobutene--substituted succinic acylating agent and an amine having at least one reactive hydrogen bonded to an amine nitrogen is characterised in that the polyisobutene--substituted succinic acylating agent is obtained by a thermal route and the polyisobutene substituent is derived from a highly reactive polyisobutene ie having a high proportion of vinylidene groups --CH.sub.2 CMe.dbd.CH.sub.2. The PIB-substituted succinic acylating agent is preferably obtained by the thermal reaction of the highly reactive polyisobutene with a succinic acylating agent e.g. maleic anhydride.Type: GrantFiled: June 7, 1995Date of Patent: December 31, 1996Assignee: BP Chemicals LimitedInventors: John R.

Patent number: 5523417Abstract: This invention relates to novel pure hydrocarbyl succinylating agents, substantially pure derivatives thereof, to a method of preparation of pure substituted succinylating agents and their derivatives, and to the use of thereof as additives for fuels and lubricants. The hydrocarbyl substituted succinylating agents are pure because the real and apparent mole ratios of the succinyl groups to the hydrocarbyl groups in such agents are substantially the same. These are produced by reacting an olefin polymer such as poly(iso)butylene with maleic anhydride to form a hydrocarbyl substitued succinylating agent which is then cleaned by solvent extraction to remove any impurities therein before use in further reactions.Type: GrantFiled: December 3, 1993Date of Patent: June 4, 1996Assignee: BP Chemicals LimitedInventors: John R. Blackborow, Michael J. Clarke
