Client software enabling a client to run a network based application

Client software, enabling a client to run a network based application which uses structured data, in which the client software comprises: (a) a communication layer to send and receive messages over the network; (b) a database layer to store, and allow querying of, the structured data; (c) a rendering layer which generates, from the structured data in the database layer, data for a user interface; wherein the client software is self-contained to provide all of the communications, data storage and rendering resources needed to run the network based application on the client device. The 3 Layer System is fully integrated and therefore requires no additional client side code to be written. Normally, this level of self-containment on the client side does not exist, so that a developer wishing to deploy a network based application to a client device needs to write client side custom code for the user interface.

Magnetic disk drive with flying height control system

Embodiments of the invention appropriately control the flying height of a magnetic head slider as necessary without making the magnetic head slider touch the magnetic disk. In one embodiment, when a magnetic disk drive is started, the level of electric power predefined for the ordinary temperature (room temperature) is read in from the internal memory of an MPU. A temperature sensor measures the internal temperature of the magnetic disk drive and sends it to the MPU. According to the temperature sent from the temperature sensor, the MPU calculates the level of electric power which should be applied to a flying height adjustment structure. According to the calculated electric power, the MPU increases or decreases the electric power applied to the flying height adjustment structure. At a flying height controlled (corrected) by the flying height adjustment structure, a magnetic head slider performs read / write on a magnetic disk.

Electric baseboard heater control

In order to provide an electric heat system that is quieter than those of the prior art, a switching circuit is incorporated into the controls for the heating system which provides for the heating elements of the electric heater to be kept at a more constant temperature than those of the prior art. The switching circuit regulates the output power to the degree desired while not inducing sharp changes in temperature of the coils of the electric heater and thus reduces the degree of rapid expansion and contraction of the coils and the enclosure for the heater. This in turn reduces the amount of mechanical noise produced by the electric heater while also reducing wear and tear on the heating element, the heater enclosure and objects near to the heater.

The phase-locked loop (30) includes a voltage-controlled oscillator (37) that produces a number (N) of equally spaced clock phases at a frequency (fVCO) that depends also upon a programmable feedback frequency divider (38) and a prescale divider (32). The frequency synthesis circuit (20) generates the output clock (CLK1, CLK2) at a frequency under the control of a frequency select word (FREQ) that indicates the number of clock phases between successive clock edges. A central processing unit (12), either itself or from a look-up table (13), generates a feedback divide integer (M) and the frequency select word (FREQ) according to a desired frequency (f), by way of a minimization of the frequency error. The frequency of the output clock (CLK1, CLK2) can be generated in a jitter-free manner, since only integer values are used in the frequency synthesis circuit (20), at relatively low frequency error.
