Inventor: ROST EBERHARD DR RER NAT
IPC: B29C48/08
Filed: 1998-07-30
Abstract: A process for producing a two colour composite thermoplastic film(14) involves extruding a carrier film(10) with a rebate(16) in a one colour and an upper layer(12) of a different colour which is fed into the rebate. Both layers(10,12) are pressed together while warm and the resulting upper surface is smoothed to give a two-coloured film with a flush surface. Process equipment includes a first extruder(20) with a die(22) for forming the carrier film(10) with rebate(16) and a polishing stack(32) for joining the carrier film (10) and upper layer(12). A two-coloured composite film(14) made by the process is claimed.

Abstract: A method of manufacturing a bonding substrate is
disclosed. An oxide film is formed on the surface of at
least one of two semiconductor substrates, and the two
substrates are brought into close contact with each other
via the oxide film. The substrates are heat-treated in an
oxidizing atmosphere in order to firmly join the substrates
together. Subsequently, an unjoined portion at the
periphery of a device-fabricating substrate is completely
removed, and the thickness of the device-fabricating
substrate is reduced to a desired thickness so as to yield a
thin film. The surface of the thin film is then etched
through vapor-phase etching in order to make the thickness
of the thin film uniform. In the method, the oxide film on
the unjoined portion of at least the support substrate is
removed before the surface of the thin film is subjected to
vapor-phase etching. The method prevents a groove from
being formed in the surface of the unjoined portion (terrace
portion) of the support substrate (base wafer) even when the
surface of the thin film undergoes vapor phase etching.

Abstract: A near-orthogonal dual-MAC instruction set is provided which implements
virtually the entire functionality of the orthogonal instruction set of 272 commands using only
65 commands. The reduced instruction set is achieved by eliminating instructions based on
symmetry with respect to the result of the commands and by imposing simple restrictions
related to items such as the order of data presentation by the programmer. Specific selections
of commands are also determined by the double word aligned memory architecture which is
associated with the dual-MAC architecture. The reduced instruction set architecture preserves
the functionality and inherent parallelism of the command set and requires fewer command
bits to implement than the full orthogonal set.

Abstract: A timing cam driven service station services a pair of inkjet cartridges, such
as interchangeable first and second inkjet cartridges when installed with a third
inkjet cartridge, in a dual-cartridge carriage of an inkjet printing mechanism. The
interchangeable cartridge system uses a black ink cartridge and a full color cartridge
with full-colorant concentrations of colored ink for printing graphics and text. For
printing photographic type images, the black cartridge is replaced with an imaging
cartridge that carries ink formulations having reduced colorant concentrations to
provide near photographic quality images. The service station has a timing cam
drive that selectively translationally moves caps and wipers to service the installed
printheads, including the capability to independently wipe each printhead for
optimum servicing, as well as the capability to simultaneously wipe both installed
printheads to speed servicing during a print job. The timing cam drive also drives a
carriage lock to secure a carriage carrying the printheads in a fixed position when the
printheads are capped. A method is also provided of servicing inkjet printheads
installed in the printing mechanism.

Abstract: A class loader downloads objects and object viewers from remote computer
nodes, and invokes locally stored object viewers to view objects. When a
user selects an object to view, a conventional downloading of the referenced
object is initiated. The class loader, however, utilizes data type information
received at the beginning of the object downloading process to determine if a
viewer for the referenced object is available on the user's workstation. If an
appropriate view is not locally available, the class loader automatically
locates an appropriate viewer on the server from which the object is being
downloaded, or from any other appropriate server known to the user's
workstation. The class loader downloads the located viewer and then
involves a program verification procedure to verify the integrity of the
downloaded viewer before the viewer is executed. Once a viewer has been
verified, the viewer is added to the user's local viewer library, downloading of
the referenced object is completed, and execution of the viewer to view the
downloaded object is enabled. If an appropriate viewer cannot be located, or
the only viewer located does not pass the verification procedure,
downloading of the referenced object is aborted.

Abstract: Each execution unit (118, 120, 122, 124) within a superscalar
processor (100) has an associated completion table (136, 138, 140, 142)
that contains a copy of the status of all instructions dispatched but not
completed. A central completion table (132) maintains the status of
every dispatched instruction as reported by the dispatch unit (116) and
the individual execution units. Execution units send finish signals to
the completion table responsible for retiring a particular type of
instruction. The central completion table retires instructions that may
cause an interrupt and instructions whose results may target the same
register. The execution units' associated completion tables retire the
balance of the instructions and the execution units send instruction
status to the central completion table and to each execution unit. This
reduces the number of instructions that are retired by the central
completion table,increasing the number of instructions retired per clock
cycle.

Abstract: Amplificateur optique possédant une amplification spectrale sensiblement uniforme. Cet amplificateur comprend un atténuateur optique variable couplé entre un premier et un deuxième segments d'une fibre optique active. L'atténuation de l'atténuateur optique est réglée en fonction de l'entrée de puissance optique dans l'amplificateur, ce qui permet d'obtenir une amplification sensiblement aplatie. Dans un autre mode de réalisation, cet atténuateur peut être commandé en fonction des amplifications respectives associées au premier et au deuxième segments de fibre optique. On peut, par exemple, régler l'atténuateur de sorte que la somme des deux gains reste pratiquement constante, condition permettant également d'obtenir une amplification spectrale plate. On peut, de plus, utiliser les puissances optiques associées à la première et à la deuxième longueurs d'onde d'une sortie amplifiée de lumière à émission stimulée (ASE) depuis l'amplificateur afin de régler l'atténuation de l'atténuateur optique. Selon un exemple supplémentaire, on contrôle les puissances optiques reçues associées à chacun des canaux d'un système WDM et on commande les atténuateurs à l'intérieur de chaque amplificateur du système, de façon à rendre pratiquement égales les puissances reçues.
