Patent EP-1473711-A3 (EP)
Inventor: SUZUKI YASUTAKA
IPC: G11B7/00
Filed: 2004-04-30
Abstract: A temperature sensor (131) detects a temperature of a spindle motor (121) of a rotary drive unit (120) for rotating a disk-shaped recording medium (1), and a temperature information acquiring unit (134A) acquires the temperatures as temperature information. An eccentricity detector (132) detects a drive voltage level, and an eccentricity information acquiring unit (134B) acquires the drive voltage level as eccentricity information. When a determining unit (134C) determines that the temperature is higher than a predetermined temperature or that the drive voltage level is higher than a predetermined voltage, a servo controller (133) switches a rotation mode from constant liner velocity to constant angular velocity. That enables stable information processing over a long time with a simple structure for constant linear velocity.

Abstract: A pre-reformer (10) comprises a non-electrically conducting gas tight duct (12) and an electrically conducting wire (14) arranged in the duct (12). The electrically conducting wire (14) is electrically isolated from the duct (12). The duct (12) has an inlet (16) for receiving a hydrocarbon fuel at a first end (18) and an outlet (20) for supplying a pre-reformed hydrocarbon fuel at a second end (22). At least the inner surface (24) of the duct (12) is chemically inert with respect to the hydrocarbon fuel. An electrical power supply (26) is electrically connected to the electrically conducting wire (14) and a control means (28) controls the supply of electrical current through the electrically conducting wire (14) to maintain the electrically conducting wire (14) at a temperature to provide selective thermal decomposition of higher hydrocarbons in the hydrocarbon fuel.

Abstract: A media detection system (10) includes a light source (34) mounted within a cartridge receiving chamber (14) defined by a cartridge engaging assembly (16). A cartridge referencing member (24) has an arm portion (26) mounted to the cartridge engaging assembly (16) and a head portion (28) located within the cartridge receiving chamber (14) at a position adjacent the light source (34).

Abstract: A method of generating a unique identifier 400 without requiring platform-specific software, a computer readable medium embodying instructions for implementing the method, and a system therefor are described. In response to an event occurrence on a computer system 100, execution of the method retrieves an event timestamp 405 from an intermediate operating environment 206 on the computer system. Further execution of the method retrieves a system name 404 and a hash value 406 from the intermediate operating environment 206 on the computer system 100. The combination of the system name 404, event timestamp 405, and hash value 406 creates a unique identifier 400 uniquely identifying the intermediate operating environment 206 on the computer system 100 without requiring platform-specific software.

Abstract: Bei einem Verfahren zum Ermitteln eines Datenwertes, der mit überwiegender Wahrscheinlichkeit eine Primzahl repräsentiert und höchstens mit einer vorgegebenen Gesamtfehlerwahrscheinlichkeit (ε) eine zusammengesetzte Zahl repräsentiert, werden stufenweise probabilistische Primzahltests ausgeführt, bis ein geeigneter Datenwert gefunden wird. Die Berechnungen jeder Stufe werden derart ausgeführt, daß ihre Fehlerwahrscheinlichkeit höchstens so groß wie ein dieser Stufe zugeordneter Fehlerwahrscheinlichkeitswert (ε   i   ) ist. Jeder Fehlerwahrscheinlichkeitswert (ε   i +1 ) einer weiteren Stufe ist kleiner als der Fehlerwahrscheinlichkeitswert (ε   i   ) der vorhergehenden Stufe. Ein Computerprogrammprodukt und eine Vorrichtung, insbesondere ein tragbarer Datenträger, weisen entsprechende Merkmale auf.

Abstract: An E-mail is sent or received with animated representation as if a pet were going out of or coming into a GUI picture simulating the insides of both a sender's room and a receiver's room for letter delivery and dispatch. Moreover, the electronic pet, represented by animation, is virtually kept. Specifically, agent data updated responsive to experiences acquired by the pet is sent as annexed papers to the E-mail, while the receiver returns only pet data. Thus, an animation is represented on a GUI picture (100) simulating the insides of both a sender's room and a receiver's room for imparting an impression as if a pet (103) were going out of or coming into a GUI picture simulating the insides of both the sender's room and the receiver's room for letter delivery and dispatch. The agent data determining the behaviour of the electronic pet (103A) are updated responsive to the mouse (22D) actuation by the user, such as caressing the pet or serving refreshments to the pet, for varying the behaviour of the pet, represented by animation, depending on the keeping environment. The operating states of the mouse are reflected on representation of a pointing cursor (101).
