  • Patent number: 12147856
    Abstract: Systems and methods for concurrently processing electronic messages are described. A suspendable machine for computing a selected electronic message can be invoked. The computing of the selected electronic message can be suspended in response to the controller receiving a communication from the suspendable machine that the suspendable machine requires one or more unbound private dataflow variables. The computing of the selected electronic message can be resumed in response to the controller selecting an electronic message that can bind at least one of the one or more unbound private dataflow variables.

  • Publication number: 20190026242
    Abstract: An embodiment of this disclosure provides an apparatus for use in an automated transaction system. The apparatus includes a first interface coupled to a primary bus, the first interface configured to permit communication of data. The apparatus also includes a second interface coupled to a secondary bus, the second interface configured to permit communication of the data. A network topology of the primary bus is different from a network topology of the secondary bus. The apparatus also includes at least one processing device coupled to the first interface and second interface. The at least one processor is configured to communicate the data over at least one of the first interface or second interface.

  • Patent number: 9790890
    Abstract: A heat machine having an external heat source and an external heat sink may be configured as a Stirling engine having a hot pair of cylinder-and-displacer combinations 15 and a cold pair of cylinder-and-displacer combinations 16 though advantageously two pairs of hot combinations 15 and two pairs of cold combinations 16 are provided, arranged mutually at right angles. Mechanisms 20 associated with the hot and cold displacers controls the movement thereof to be truly sinusoidal and are contained within casings 21. The pressure in the working fluid spaces remote from the mechanisms 20 and also the pressure in the casings 21 is monitored and compared, and then is controlled such that the casing pressure is slightly less than the minimum working fluid pressure in the working fluid spaces. The relative phase of the two mechanisms 20 associated respectively with the hot displacers and the cold displacers is adjustable (28,29,30,31; and FIG. 4).

  • Patent number: 9097621
    Abstract: The invention provides a test apparatus for providing axial stresses in a structure, comprising a first set of formations for abutting a first surface of the structure at a first plurality of locations, a second set of formations for abutting a second surface of the structure at a second plurality of locations, and a force actuator, and wherein each set of formations comprises at least three formations and wherein at least two formations in each set of formations are aligned with a notional alignment line along the structure and at least one formation in each set of formations is out of alignment along the structure with said notional alignment line, such that when the force actuator applies a force, loads are applied at different locations, causing the structure to bend biaxially and thereby providing biaxial stresses in the structure.

  • Patent number: 8943078
    Abstract: Methods and systems for simplifying object mapping for a client request for action. A client request for action may be received from an external interface. The external interface may comprise a human being or a computer program. The client request may be associated to a logical object in order to minimize a representational gap between the client request and a physical object using the logical object. The query request may be responded to using object relational mapping in order to simplify the external interface by minimizing the representational gap between the external interface and the physical object using the logical object.

  • Patent number: 8423561
    Abstract: The exemplary embodiments of the present invention provide a system and method for simplifying object mapping for user interfaces for on a computer system. The method comprises receiving a client request for action and associating the client request to at least one logical object. The method further comprises converting the at least one logical object to at least one physical object that resides in a object relational mapping, and mapping between the at least one physical object and at least one relational database. The system includes a conceptual module that associates the client requests to at least one logical object and converts the at least one logical object to at least one physical object that resides in a object relational mapping, and a object relational mapping module for mapping between physical objects and at least one relational database.
