A stator core with a plurality of slots circumferentially arranged therearound has a stator winding including three (UVW) phase windings, each phase winding having 4n parallel windings. The stator winding is formed of U-shaped conductor segments inserted in the slots from one axial end, a pair of open end portions of each conductor segment extending axially from of the stator core and being bent toward circumferentially opposite directions, the bent portions being star connected together. The plurality of slots have, for each phase winding, pairs of circumferentially adjacent slots, each slot having an even number of slot-received portions of the phase winding radially aligned in a column, and for each circumferential slot pairs, the slot-received portion in an m-th layer of each slot of the pair is electrically connected to the portion inserted in an (m+1)-th layer of a slot of a circumferentially adjacent slot.

Frame elements which shall be made available for skipping may are transmitted more efficiently by arranging that a default payload length information is transmitted separately within a configuration block, with the length information within the frame elements, in turn, being subdivided into a default payload length flag followed, if the default payload length flag is not set, by a payload length value explicitly coding the payload length of the respective frame element. However, if the default payload length flag is set, an explicit transmission of the payload length may be avoided. Rather, any frame element, the default extension payload length flag of which is set, has the default payload length and any frame element, the default extension payload length flag of which is not set, has a payload length corresponding to the payload length value. By this measure, transmission effectiveness is increased.

The present invention provides an optical pickup device which realizes an optical system having an optical magnification suitable for each disc format between three optical discs and a light emitting means for emitting a laser beam having a wavelength corresponding to each disc in the optical system of the optical pickup for recording and/or reproducing an information signal to the optical discs and which prevents the number of components from being increased to simplify the composition of the optical system, thereby preventing the length of an optical path from being lengthened, the optical pickup from being increased in size. The optical pickup device has a first light emitting unit for emitting a laser beam having a first wavelength and a laser beam having a second wavelength, a second light emitting unit for emitting a laser beam having a third wavelength, a first collimator lens for transmitting the laser beam having the first wavelength and the laser beam having the second wavelength, a second collimator lens for transmitting the laser beam having the third wavelength, a first objective lens for transmitting the laser beam having the first wavelength transmitted through the first collimating lens or the laser beam having the third wavelength transmitted through the second collimator lens, and a second objective lens for transmitting the laser beam having the second wavelength transmitted through the first collimator lens.

In a nonvolatile memory with a block management system, data written to blocks include host write data and also system control data for managing the blocks. When a block is full or no longer accepting data, it is closed after valid versions of the data on it are relocated to another block in a rewrite operation. An improved pre-emptive rewrite scheme prevents a worst-case situation where multiple rewrites to occur at once when they happened to be full at the same time. Particularly, the scheduling of the pre-emptive rewrites for control data is based on a number of considerations including the time required for each control block rewrite and the time available for control block rewrites based on the configuration of the update blocks for storing host data, the time required in the foreground host operation and the host write latency.

Embodiments are directed to determining optimal partition configurations for distributed database data and to implementing parallel query optimization memo data structure to improve partition configuration cost estimation efficiency. In an embodiment, a computer system accesses a portion of database data and various database queries for a given database. The computer system determines, based on the accessed database data and database queries, a partition configuration search space which includes multiple feasible partition configurations for the database data and a workload of queries expected to be executed on that data. The computer system performs a branch and bound search in the partition configuration search space to determine which data partitioning path has the lowest partitioning cost. The branch and bound search is performed according to branch and bound search policies. The computer system also outputs the partition configuration with the determined lowest partitioning cost.
