A method of producing Hydrogen by reacting a metal selected from the group consisting of Aluminum (Al), Magnesium (Mg), Silicon (Si) and Zinc (Zn) with water in the presence of an effective amount of a catalyst at a pH of between 4 and 10 to produce Hydrogen. The catalyst or other additive is selected to prevent or slow down deposition of the reaction products on the (impair reactions with the) metal that tend to passivate the metal and thereby facilitates the production of said Hydrogen.

Systems and methods for determining the number of texture samples used to produce an anisotropically filtered texture mapped pixel may improve texture mapping performance or image quality. The number of texture samples may be increased or decreased based on texture state variables that may be specific to each texture map. Furthermore, the texture samples may be positioned along an axis of anisotropy to approximate an elliptical footprint, ensuring that the texture samples span the entire axis of anisotropy. A graphics driver may load the texture state variables and configure a system to modify the number of texture samples and/or position the texture samples used to produce the anisotropically filtered texture mapped pixel.

These infant positioning devices may further include a headpiece, brim, pocket at the back surface of the lower pad and a detachable readjustable multipurpose pillow for positioning the infant from and between supine, prone and side-lying positions, all while maintaining and reinforcing the flexed midline position of the infant for normal development.

The present invention provides a balance assembly for use with a sash window assembly slidable within a master frame. The balance assembly generally includes a plate, a spring assembly, and a brake shoe or pivot brake assembly. The plate is removably connected to the master frame. The spring assembly includes a first spring that is inter-wound or nested within a second spring. Each spring has a coiled portion, an intermediate portion, and a free portion. The coiled portions of the springs are rotatably supported by the support member that extends from the plate. The free portions of the springs have a curved configuration and are received by a slot in the brake shoe, which is operably coupled to the sash window. The inter-wound springs exert a balancing force on the sash window during movement of the window.

A motorized personal transportation article is provided to transport a person by wearing a pair of power-assisted motorized shoes, used in a normal forward walking action that provides a supplementary walking speed adjusted based on a user intended walking speed, even the intended speed changes during a mid-step. The sole of each of the shoes houses a relatively stiff plate coupled with conveyor assemblies in the toe and heel sections, respectively, which are connected by a relatively flexible portion. The assembly is designed to neutralize forces acting to disrupt its operation during walking while the flexible portion assists in bending the shoe naturally to maintain the natural walking balance and movement. Further, the flexible portion may equip with ribs or hinges for easier bending than twisting. The front and rear relatively stiff plates may make of twistable and bendable materials but to a lesser extent than the flexible portion.

A compile technique is provided for multicore allocation, by which a desired running performance can be achieved. The steps of analyzing a taskization directive, taskizing a specified part, and assigning a specified CPU the task are adopted for the compile technique. According to the program-to-tasks-decomposition compile technique, the multicore decomposition is performed by allocating tasks to CPUs individually while following a task decomposition directive of a main part designated by a user. When no direction is issued concerning a CPU to be allocated, the relation with a principal task is judged from the relation of invocation and the dependency, and CPU to be allocated, and then the CPU to be allocated is determined. In allocation to the CPU, an efficient multicore-task decomposition is achieved in consideration of copy and assignment of one processing to more than one CPU while figuring in the balance between processing speed and resources.
