  • Patent number: 9490939
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is an apparatus and method for calculating a TCP checksum. An apparatus for calculating a TCP checksum includes a data division unit for dividing content to be transmitted into two or more primary data fragments by a unit of a preset byte. A first checksum calculation unit calculates first checksums for the primary data fragments, respectively. A second checksum calculation unit calculates a second checksum for secondary data to be inserted into a data area of the TCP segment using the first checksums. Accordingly, in TCP-based networks, a checksum calculation procedure is improved upon transmitting static content, so that a static content transfer rate occupying most of TCP-based network traffic can be improved.

  • Patent number: 5367854
    Abstract: A wet connection method for the precast concrete units capable of performing the connection of the units in a shorter time by electrically heating the concrete placed in the connection part. This method comprises the steps of connecting the reinforcing bars of the units to each other with a second conductive member of a conductive wire or net member in a space defined by the reinforcing bars, winding a conductive liner member around the connected reinforcing bars in order to provide a first conductive member, electrically connecting terminals of an electric power source to the first and second conductive members in such a manner that the polarities of the terminal and the conductive member are opposite to each other and applying electric power to the conductive members in order to cause the concrete placed in the connection part to be heated and rapidly cured. The present connection method shortens the curing time of the concrete and the term of work.
