A spectral representation of an audio signal having consecutive audio frames can be derived more efficiently, when a common time warp is estimated for any two neighbouring frames, such that a following block transform can additionally use the warp information. Thus, window functions required for successful application of an overlap and add procedure during reconstruction can be derived and applied...

A self-organising software for controlling a device, which software contains at least two components. Each component includes at least one interface for connecting with other components, wherein each of the components itself contains information defining component rules. The rules contained by the components define how components can be connected with each other components so that no external rule...

A processor includes a hierarchical Translation Lookaside Buffer (TLB) comprising a Level-1 TLB and a small, high-speed Level-0 TLB. Entries in the L0 TLB replicate entries in the L1 TLB. The processor first accesses the L0 TLB in an address translation, and access the L1 TLB if a virtual address misses in the L0 TLB. When the virtual address hits in the L1 TLB, the virtual address, physical addre...

The invention relates to a corrosion protection system for a stay cable construction including a multiplicity of tension members made of parallel steel tensile elements, extending between a first anchorage and a second anchorage, and comprising two opposite ends, the first end co-operating with the first anchorage and the said second end co-operating with the second anchorage. The corrosion protec...
