An implant, in particular an intervertebral prosthesis, which consists of an elongated elastic body which is form-elastic and takes on the form of a spiral S in the force free state. The spiral can be drawn by a reverse winding up into an insertion instrument which is only insubstantially larger in the insertion region than the cross-section of the elongated elastic body in order to reach the inner space of an intervertebral disc through a small opening in the annulus fibrosus and to push in and sever off the self winding spiral when the interior is filled. This has the advantage that inner spaces of differing sizes can be filled with the same spiral.

Error-free state tables are automatically generated from a specification of a group of desired performable functions, such as are provided in a programming language in a formal notation such as Backus-Naur form or a derivative thereof by discriminating tokens corresponding to respective performable functions, identifications, arguments, syntax, grammar rules, special symbols and the like. The tokens may be recursive (e.g. infinite), in which case they are transformed into a finite automata which may be deterministic or non-deterministic. Non-deterministic finite automata are transformed into deterministic finite automata and then into state transitions which are used to build a state table which can then be stored or, preferably, loaded into a finite state machine of a hardware parser accelerator to define its personality.

Presented is a system and method for providing centralized address management of static IP addresses through the dynamic host control protocol. Static or permanent IP addresses are those addresses assigned by DHCP having an infinite lease time. The assignment of such static IP addresses follows the conventional DHCP mechanism for the assignment of other IP addresses. However, the centralized reclamation of a statically or permanently assigned IP address by a network administrator through the DHCP server presents novel aspects of the invention heretofore unknown. Specifically, through the system and method of the present invention, the DHCP server is capable of reclaiming at any point in time, a statically or permanently assigned IP address by transmitting a DHCP RECLAIM command to the DHCP client, or through its relay agent. In the normal situation, the DHCP client acknowledges the RECLAIM command, allowing the IP address to be placed in the FREE state. If, however, the DHCP client does not respond or the responses are not received by the DHCP server, the DHCP server marks the state of the IP address as DEPRECATED. The state of the IP address will be changed from DEPRECATED to FREE once a number of retries of the RECLAIM process has been completed, or a maximum period of time has passed. Security mechanisms to prevent a malicious attacker from reclaiming static IP address from DHCP clients are also presented.

In a radio communication system that performs HARQ (Hybrid Automatic Repeat request), a mobile station returns the HARQ process state of the mobile station to the free state by the reception of ACK. In this state, the mobile station, upon receiving from the scheduling base station an SA (scheduling assignment) for assigning resources for retransmission, transmits a transmission process state notification reporting that the mobile station is in the free state when the mobile station does not have new data to be transmitted. The base station therefore recognizes that the mobile station is in the free state and returns the HARQ process state of the base station to the free state and halts the assignment of resources to the mobile station.

In an apparatus for controlling a multi-cylinder internal combustion engine with partial cylinder switch-off mechanism which is switchable between an all-cylinder operation mode in which all cylinders are operated and a partial-cylinder operation mode in which operation of partial cylinders is suspended, the operation of intake valves and exhaust valves is suspended or resumed in a predetermined order with respect to all of the suspended cylinders irrespective of a rotational frequency of the engine. There are provided a solenoid valve on an intake side and a solenoid valve on an exhaust side for switching input hydraulic pressures for hydraulically operated switching devices respectively on the intake side and on the exhaust side between the driving state and the drive-free state.

A medical valve has an open mode that permits fluid flow, and a closed mode that prevents fluid flow. To that end, the medical valve has a housing having an inlet and an outlet, and a resilient member within the housing. The resilient member has a body portion with a free state when undeformed by external mechanical forces and a deformed state when the valve is in the closed mode. The body portion is formed to return toward the free state as the valve transitions from the closed mode to the open mode and defining at least part of a fluid path through the valve.

The invention discloses a current-magnitude-based open-circuit failure online-diagnosis method for a power tube of an inverter, belongs to the field of motor control, and aims to solve the problem of poor robustness of a current-magnitude-based open-circuit failure diagnosis technology for the power tube of the inverter. The method comprises the following steps of establishing a current observer model of a permanent magnet synchronous motor driving system in a failure-free state, comparing an observed current value with detection current to obtain a three-phase current residual, converting the three-phase current residual to a two-phase coordinate system in a coordinate conversion way to obtain a current residual vector, standardizing the current residual vector, and diagnosing and positioning an open-circuit failure of the power tube of the inverter according to the amplitude and the phase of the standardized current residual vector. The current-magnitude-based open-circuit failure online-diagnosis method for the power tube of the inverter is free of influence of a system closed-loop control algorithm and insensitive to loads, and has higher robustness to parameter errors, measurement errors, system disturbance and the like.
