Abstract: A method, system and computer program for processing data objects in a distributed data processing system, said distributed data processing system having a plurality of software and/or hardware nodes being communicatively connectable. The method comprises the steps of defining first and second environments for processing objects at differ levels of abstraction, namely a first platform independen level and a second platform dependent level operating with different categories of object aspects. Each object is defined according to two object models, one for the platform independent environment and one for the platform dependent environment. The two object models are syncronized and object instances generated on the basis of said models are processed in the respective environments dependent on the aspects of the current object instance.

Abstract: The invention relates to an apparatus for controlling the triggering sequence in capacitive ignition systems for internal combustion engines. The induction achieved by a flywheel magneto usually results in three voltage wave halves, of which two (A,B) have one polarity and an intermediate one (C) has an opposite polarity. In the present case, the first voltage halfwave (A) is used for triggering voltage and the subsequent halfwave with opposite polarity (C) for the charging voltage. The subsequent last voltage halfwave is suppressed (B") to a level below the triggering level. This is achieved by arranging an inhibiting circuit (11-15) for the conventional triggering circuit (8,9,10) by charging (11) a further capacitor (12) during the charging phase itself, the capacitor (12) maintaining control voltage for a further thyristor (15) or triac, which is arranged to short-circuit the triggering voltage.

Abstract: A method of winding coils in one and the same wire size, so that they can be tailored to prevailing circuit requirements, includes, for example, when a lower resistance is required, a partial winding is first wound in one direction from a first connection to a second connection, the wire then being wound from the second connection in the opposite direction for joining to the first connection.

Abstract: Apparatus in magneto ignition systems for providing time separated sequences for charging and triggering in cophased charging and triggering voltage sequences, including inhibition of the ignition sequence in such apparatus. The ignition system includes a triac as a control member, a rectifier being included in the control circuit of the triac, the rectifier having its polarity disposed such that time-separated charging and triggering intervals are obtained. Across the rectifier there is connected a short-circulating circuit or providing triggering control voltages to the triac, even during the charging interval, thus preventing charging, which results in inhibition of the ignition sequence.
