Steel frames formed of rolled steel I-beams are connected by steel framed wall panels spanned by steel studs, and covered by steel framed roof panels spanned by steel purlins, making a structural frame completely formed of steel components bolted together. All components are precut and predrilled before transport to a construction site. A crane is used to raise steel frames and steel framed roof panels into position for bolted assembly, reducing construction times to absolute minimums. Entire structure is virtually lightning-proof, wind-proof, and earthquake resistant.

In a wireless communications system operating according to CDMA or the like, when one terminal simultaneously performs communication using multiple wireless resources (e.g., multiple carriers), there was a problem that when it was attempted to guarantee network mobility by the same soft handoff system as in the case where communication was performed using only one wireless resource, efficiency suffered from the viewpoint of network forwarding load, processing load and wireless resource occupancy time. Soft handoff termination is judged and soft handoff is forcibly terminated according to whether or not the data rate obtained for all resources on the network side satisfies a requested rate, based on a reception state notification from a terminal concerning wireless resources. By performing this processing, the soft handoff period is shortened, sufficient received strength in the terminal is maintained and terminal mobility is guaranteed, while at the same time network forwarding load, terminal processing load and wireless resource occupancy time are suppressed to the absolute minimum.

Methods and systems for performing arithmetic functions. In accordance with a first aspect of the invention, methods and apparatus are provided, working in conjunction of software algorithms and hardware implementation of class network routing, to achieve a very significant reduction in the time required for global arithmetic operation on the torus. Therefore, it leads to greater scalability of applications running on large parallel machines. The invention involves three steps in improving the efficiency and accuracy of global operations: (1) Ensuring, when necessary, that all the nodes do the global operation on the data in the same order and so obtain a unique answer, independent of roundoff error; (2) Using the topology of the torus to minimize the number of hops and the bidirectional capabilities of the network to reduce the number of time steps in the data transfer operation to an absolute minimum; and (3) Using class function routing to reduce latency in the data transfer. With the method of this invention, every single element is injected into the network only once and it will be stored and forwarded without any further software overhead. In accordance with a second aspect of the invention, methods and systems are provided to efficiently implement global arithmetic operations on a network that supports the global combining operations. The latency of doing such global operations are greatly reduced by using these methods.

A method is disclosed for collecting and processing raw process data. The method includes processing the raw data through a process model to obtain a prediction of the process quality; processing this prediction through two dynamic transfer functions thus creating two intermediate signals; storing the two intermediate signals as a function of time; retrieving at the time of a real and validated measurement of the process quality from the history the absolute minimum value and maximum value of the two intermediate signals in the time period corresponding to a minimum and maximum specified deadtime, in which the absolute minimum value and maximum values define the minimum and maximum prediction possible; calculating the deviation as being the difference between the real and validated measurement and the uncertainty area encompassed between the minimum and maximum prediction possible; incorporating the deviation into the process model to calibrate the process model; and, repeating.

In a heddle (6), the slender heddle shank (21) has been lengthened, at the cost of the end eyelets (7, 8) and the yarn eyelet region (29). This is accomplished on the one hand by shortening the end eyelet regions (7, 8) to their absolute minimum length and on the other by placing the auxiliary openings (38), which serve to transport the heddles, closer to the end eyelets (7, 8). The radii R in the region of the end eyelets (7, 8) are reduced. Instead of the usual 2 mm width, the heddle shank (21) still has a maximum width of 1.6 mm. The regions (14, 13) of the heddle (6) that protrude past the end openings still have, instead of the usual length of 4 mm, a length of 2.5 mm to 3 mm. Directly around the yarn eyelet (33), the heddle has a width which, as before, is equivalent to twice the width of the yarn eyelet (33). However, the length of this region is shortened to a maximum of twice to three times the yarn eyelet width. The transition from the narrowest zone (27, 28) of the heddle shank (21) to the comparatively wide zone (29) around the yarn eyelet (33) is characterized by an elongated transition region (34), which has a maximum width of 1.8 mm and serves to reinforce this region against mechanical stresses.

Minimum-memory-implementation is available with any depth and period in DSL interleaving/deinterleaving, always allowing the minimum amount of memory to be used in both transmitter and receiver without loss of performance or of basic triangular structure, even if the interleaver/deinterleaver parameters change dynamically. A novel cell-scheduling process ensures availability of the minimum amount of memory (or any other desired memory usage) to implement an image of the perfect triangle and works for any co-prime depth and interleaver period. Minimal memory use may be further characterized by a simple off-line method that determines an addressing order for each of the memory cells in a minimum-memory (or other) implementation of an interleaver/deinterleaver according to the invention. Time variation of interleaver depth in operation can be accommodated easily with absolute minimum memory requirement at all time instants.

A system for recovering CO2 via liquefaction and purification from a vented CO2 gas stream comprising a compressor; a dehydrator; a scrubber; a refrigerator having one or more stages; and a separation subsystem adapted to ensure non-condensable gas content in the final product meets industry standards. The liquid CO2 product is of sufficient purity to be used in applications requiring beverage-grade CO2. The system can be utilized as a single-brewery installation to reduce venting from ethanol fermenters to an absolute minimum, produce a high purity liquid CO2 product for use in-process or external sales, and offset the purchasing of expensive, industrial CO2 of inferior purity.

A method, computer program product, and data processing system for managing a input/output buffer cache for prevention of deadlocks are disclosed. In a preferred embodiment, automatic buffer cache resizing is performed whenever the number of free buffers in the buffer cache diminishes to below a pre-defined threshold. This resizing adds a pre-defined number of additional buffers to the buffer cache, up to a pre-defined absolute maximum buffer cache size. To prevent deadlocks, an absolute minimum number of free buffers are reserved to ensure that sufficient free buffers for performing a buffer cache resize are always available. In the event that the buffer cache becomes congested and cannot be resized further, threads whose buffer demands cannot be immediately satisfied are blocked until sufficient free buffers become available.

A state where at least a part of the virtual object (e.g., a foot of a robot) enters into the actual object (e.g., floor), i.e., a state where at least a part of a plurality of virtual points located on the surface of the virtual object is inside the actual object, can be assumed. At each of the inside and the outside of the actual object, as a virtual point is located at a deeper position inside and away from the surface or the skin part of the actual object and as a coordinate value difference ΔZ_i is larger, a higher value is calculated for the cost E_i as well. The combination Ẑ of coordinate values of virtual points, bringing the total cost E=Σ_iE_i closer to an absolute minimum or a local minimum, can be searched.
