Abstract: Techniques are presented herein for reducing network congestion in data center environments. A virtual switch, hosted by a server device in the network, registers with a controller device to enable the virtual switch to exchange address information with the controller device. The virtual switch generates mapping information comprising Media Access Control addresses of one or more virtual machines that are in communication with the virtual switch. The mapping information is sent to the controller device.

Abstract: Techniques are presented herein for reducing network congestion in data center environments. A controller device in a network receives a registration request from a physical switch device and from a virtual switch that is hosted by a server device in the network. The controller device registers the physical switch device such that the controller device is able to send configuration messages to the physical switch device. The controller device also registers the virtual switch such that the controller device is able to receive mapping information from the virtual switch. The controller device receives from the virtual switch the mapping information comprising Media Access Control address information of one or more virtual machines that are in communication with the virtual switch. The mapping information is stored in a database maintained by the controller device.

Abstract: A plasma display panel for improving brightness and as reducing power consumption is disclosed. In the plasma display panel, transparent electrodes make a pair at each of discharge cells. Protruded transparent electrodes are protruded from the respective transparent electrodes with a structure in which a square shape is connected to a trapezoidal shape. Connectors connects the protruded transparent electrodes arranged at adjacent discharge cells to each other to be stepped from one end of the protruded transparent electrode positioned at the middle portion of the discharge cell.

Abstract: A plasma display apparatus comprises a plasma display panel comprising an electrode, a drive board and a connection unit adhered to a terminal of the drive board and electrically connected to the electrode.

Abstract: A method of fabricating a liquid crystal display device includes performing a first mask process to form a gate line, a gate pad, and a gate electrode on a substrate. The method of fabricating a liquid crystal display device further includes performing a second mask process to form an active layer on the gate electrode, performing a third mask process to form a pixel electrode contacting the active layer, and performing a fourth mask process to form a source electrode and a drain electrode on the active layer.

Abstract: The invention applies to servo controllers for at least the voice coil motor of a hard disk drive. Today, many control algorithms require 80 to 90 percent of the sampling period to complete their calculation of the next control, making computation time delay no longer negligible. The invention accommodates the transport delay, such as computation time delay, into the state estimator and into the whole control system. Experimental results using a commercial hard drive, as well as simulation results, show that the invention's method effectively improves the hard disk drive control system stability by increasing the phase margin and gain margin. The invention includes the method of operating the servo-controller, as well as the apparatus implementing that method. The invention also includes hard disk drives containing servo-controllers implementing the method, and program systems residing in accessibly coupled memory to a computer within the servo controller implementing the method.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a plasma display panel. The plasma display panel includes black matrices formed in a front substrate, and first barrier ribs, which are formed opposite to the black matrices on a rear substrate and partition pixel cells. The first barrier ribs have a width wider than that of the black matrices. Even if misalignment occurs during a process of adhering substrates, the black matrices do not protrude into discharge spaces. Therefore, the defective ratio can be lowered and the picture quality can be improved.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a plasma display panel. According to the present invention, a width of an inner barrier rib formed in an inner region within a display region of a rear substrate is smaller than a width of an outer barrier rib formed in an outer region of the rear substrate. Therefore, the barrier ribs can be prevented from being damaged due to pressure applied when a front substrate and the rear substrate are adhered. Furthermore, a height of the inner barrier rib and a height of the outer barrier rib are substantially the same. It is thus possible to minimize noise incurred by a step between the barrier ribs.

Abstract: A platform-independent system and method for remotely controlling home devices and a computer-readable recording medium in which a program capable of executing the method is recorded are disclosed. The method includes installing a device control application to be used for the management of a home device when the home device is connected to the home network system, bring state information of the home device through the installed device control application, controlling a specified home device from an outside, receiving a report of an event occurring in the home device, and using a SOAP so that the above operations are performed irrespective of the middleware of a home gateway. Accordingly, the home devices connected to the home network through the home gateway can be controlled from the outside irrespective of the middleware supported by the home gateway.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a flat display apparatus, and more particularly, the present invention relates to a flat display apparatus which can prevent a misdischarge and enhance productivity. The flat display apparatus according to the present invention includes a display panel, a frame provided on a rear surface of the display panel, and at least two thermal conductive sheets placed between the display panel and the frame. The thermal conductive sheets are spaced apart from each other at certain intervals. According to the present invention, by improving the structure of the flat display apparatus, the workability can be enhanced and a temperature gradient of the flat display panel can be suppressed.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method for providing services on online geometric correction using, in which information related with GCP (Ground Control Point) used for correcting geometric distortion of an image collected by an aircraft or a satellite are transmitted online through Internet network, thereby allowing a user at a remote place to perform geometric correction or ortho-rectification. In the geometric correction process, the image information related with the GCP is provided but the precise geographic coordinate of the GCP itself is not provided to thereby maintain the secretion of detailed geographic information.
