Described herein is a system for executing distributed transactions. A coordinator and one or more participants cooperate to execute a distributed transaction, the distributed transaction including for each participant a transaction executed by the participant. To manage the transaction, the coordinator and the participant communicate over a network using, for example, a stateless protocol. Before each participant commits the transaction, the participants determine that the coordinator has committed the transaction. The coordinator commits the transaction after receiving acknowledgment from all the participants that they will commit the transaction. To determine whether the coordinator has committed the transaction, a participant transmits a message to the coordinator to acknowledge that it will commit the distributed transaction. The participant commits its respective transaction if it receives an acknowledgement from the coordinator. For the particular transaction being executed by a participant, the participant prevents other transactions from modifying a data item affected by the particular transaction. The participant will prevent such modifications until termination criteria for the particular transaction is satisfied, in which case the participant terminates the transaction.

Described herein is a system for executing distributed transactions. A participant and a coordinator cooperate to execute a distributed transaction, the distributed transaction including a transaction executed by the participant. To manage the transaction, the coordinator and the participant communicate over a network using, for example, a stateless protocol. The distributed transaction may be terminated when communication between the participant and coordinator regarding the transaction does not occur within a time period. The time period may reflect the time required for a coordinator to send a message and a participant to acknowledge receipt of the message, and the time for the participant to perform operations executed for the transaction. The latency of network traffic between the participant and the coordinator is monitored, and the time periods adjusted accordingly. In addition, the amount of time required for the participant to execute operations for the transaction is monitored, and the time periods adjusted accordingly.

A device is provided, in direct skin contact, surrounding an injured area for the treatment, reduction of joint inflammation, edema and excitation of neural and muscular stimulation associated with human and mammal tissues. This therapeutic light source includes a multiplicity of light emitting diodes (LED's) found in the ranges of 350 nm to 1000+ nm and fiber optic connections. A neoprene type material or other non-allergenic material is used to set the LED's and fiber optics in layers consisting of contact with the skin to few centimeters from the skin tissue. Distance will vary from contact or near contact with devices to several millimeters of separation. Each LED array is independently controlled allowing for optimal modulation of light frequencies and wavelengths. Technology is integrated allowing for biomedical feedback of tissue temperature and other statistical information. A low voltage, portable power supply, is integrated into the device as well as an analog/digital, input/output connection device. The design will be created for continuous wear, flexibility and comfort.

A device for light and heat treatment is contemplated using polarized film or a light guide accepting white light.

Systems and methods are provided for signaling the decoding order of ADUs to enable efficient recovery of the decoding order of ADUs when session multiplexing is in use. A decoding order recovery process in a receiver is improved when session multiplexing is in use. For example, various embodiments improve the decoding order recovery process of SVC when no CS-DONs are utilized. First information associated with a first media sample to identify a second media sample is signaled upon packetization to indicate/aid in recovering. Upon de-packetizing, a decoding order of the first media sample and the second media sample is determined based on the received signaling of the first information.

A display device has a light blocking arrangement for selectively blocking light which has or would be emitted at large lateral angles. The display can be configured so that light reaching these elements is either allowed to reach the viewer or is blocked from reaching the viewer. This means that a public viewing mode can be chosen or a private viewing mode. The light blocking elements are controlled optically in order to simplify the construction and control.

A controller changes a blocked port to a forwarding state when a link down or change of the representative bridge is detected and a receiving port of a bridge settled in the root bridge is a blocked port. When the bridge itself is not settled in a root bridge, a transmitter transmits to another bridge a TCN-BPDU that, when the bridge itself has received a BPDU inferior to itself BPDU, the representative bridge changes. A transmitter transmits to all other bridges a TC detection flag set BPDU when the bridge itself has received a TCN-BPDU and the bridge itself is settled in a root bridge. When the bridge itself is not settled in a root bridge and the bridge itself has received the TC detection flag set BPDU, such BPDU is transmitted in a direction other than root bridge direction, and the contents of a forwarding table of the bridge itself are deleted.
