Abstract: As applied to printer ink cartridges having a collapsible container therein, ink refilling is accomplished through the use of a clamp and filler cartridge assembly wherein a slideable cartridge sealing plug initiates and terminates the refill process, depressurizing the cartridge at refill completion, whereby upon removal of the filling apparatus, the ink jet unit automatically obtains negative pressure. Leakage is thus precluded. At an ink jet unit filling station, one  first  inserts a clamp/ink cartridge filler assembly upon the empty ink jet cartridge, displacing the conventional sealing ball of the pointer ink cartridge;  second , the clamp/ink cartridge filling assembly is rotated relative to its clamp to dislodge the ink cartridge stopper;  third , the filler cartridge assembly plug is removed, draining ink into the ink jet unit;  fourth , the filler cartridge assembly plug is replaced;  fifth , the ink jet unit is depressurized; and  sixth , the clamp and filler cartridge assembly are removed from the ink jet unit to complete the refill method. Filling station apparatus includes a clamp with locking elements engaging a slideable and rotatable ink filler cartridge having coactive locking and ink sealing and dispensing passages. There is no modification to the existing ink jet unit printer cartridge, per se.

Abstract: In a video tape recorder, a microprocessor (5) checks a label contained in either a VPS signal or Teletext information within a broadcast signal of a channel specified with reference to reservation data, during waiting for a video recording in a reservation mode, and performs video recording if the label coincides with the reservation data. If an instruction to effect time alignment of a timer is inputted, a channel transmitting present time information, in addition to the reservation channel, is also tuned, and the time of the timer is set by applying the present time information contained in Teletext information within the broadcast signal. When the number of reserved programmes is more than a predetermined number, the time information transmitting channel is not tuned, even if the time alignment instruction is inputted: only the specified channel is checked with reference to the reservation data. In this way, even if the video tape recorder waits for video recording in the reservation mode, the time alignment in the timer in the recorder can be carried out by applying the present time information being transmitted in the broadcast signal.

Abstract: The present invention provides an information processing system, and control method therefor, that enters power management mode by an optimal timer value, while maintaining a balance between useability and power management. In an information processing system of the type which enters power management mode when a predetermined time has elapsed since a last user input (or a last processing operation), when user input or a request for resumption of a task is performed relatively early after entering the power management mode, it is assumed that a user probably feels that the predetermined time of a power management timer is so short that it provides inferior operability, and the time out value for the power management timer should be altered so that the next time it is longer. When the period from the point entering the power management mode to a point beginning a next user input ( or a next operation ) is long, the mode transition to the power management mode is assumed to be appropriate for the needs of a user, or a system, and since the mode transition should occur rather earlier to increase the power management effect, the predetermined time out value for the power management timer is shortened the next time. Therefore, the job of a user is not involuntarily interrupted, and the system can enter the power management mode by an optimal timer value.

Abstract: A method and apparatus are provided for controlling mobile and base stations (14 and 16) during satellite (12) based telecommunications to perform scheduled handovers between two communications channels (26 and 27). The base station (16) determines when a handover will be necessary. Once determined, the base station (16) generates a handover scheduling command (node #4) which includes a scheduled handover time representing a time in the future at which the handover will occur. The handover scheduling command is transmitted over the first channel to the mobile station (14). Upon receipt of the handover scheduling command, the mobile station (14) performs steps necessary to establish a second communications link over a second channel (27), prior to the scheduled handover time. At the scheduled handover time (node #21), the mobile and base stations (14 and 16) have established the second communications link on the second channel (27). To establish the second channel the mobile station calculations of the second channels frequency, timing offset and power level (node #11). By using a scheduled handover process, the mobile and base stations (14 and 16) avoid the production of interference and breaks within a conversation transmitted therebetween.

Abstract: Interconnection subsystems having diverse topologies, for interconnecting small numbers of
nodes having a predetermined maximum degree in a multiprocessor computer system, include
subsystems broadly classified into a number of general classes based on their topologies, including
a "polygonal" class, a "ladder" class and a "tiled" class. In topologies of the polygonal class, a
majority of the nodes in the multiprocessor computer system are connected in a ring and the
remaining nodes are connected to the nodes in the ring, and in some cases also to each other. In
topologies of the ladder class, the nodes are interconnected in a "ladder" topology comprising a
series of nodes connected in a ring, the ring corresponding to one standard of a ladder topology
folded on itself. Each node in the ring is connected to another node in a second series, effectively
forming rungs of the ladder topology. The nodes in the second series can be interconnected in a
variety of arrangements, including a second ring, thereby effectively providing a second standard of
the ladder topology. In topologies of the tiled class, the nodes are interconnected in tiled mesh-like
topologies with six nodes for each mesh element, thereby providing a hexagonal or elongated "brick-like"
non-"square" rectangular arrangement. Edges of the mesh are preferably connected together
to provide a folded toroid-like arrangement. In a refinement, instead of bidirectional connections, the
interconnection subsystem makes use of a predetermined maximum number of pairs of unidirectional
connections (in one embodiment, a maximum of two pairs of unidirectional connections). The
interconnection subsystems are constructed to provide desirable communications metrics, particularly
in multiprocessor computer systems which have relatively small numbers (on the order of from five
to fifteen to twenty) of nodes.

Abstract: A communication device, such as a mobile telephone (Figure 2), has a digital
signal processor (302), fast randomly accessible storage (303) and relatively
slow storage devices. Instructions are transferred from the slow storage
devices to the fast storage devices for execution by the digital signal
processor. The device is configured to operate at a full data rate or at a
reduced data rate (usually half-rate) within a time division multiplex.
Transmission data is stored in the fast storage device during reduced data
rate operation. The device is configured to change from reduced data rate
operation to full data rate operation, while maintaining communication. While
processing previously stored half-data rate data, program instructions for the
full data rate mode of operation are written to the fast storage means, while
said data is being processed and thereby being removed from said storage
means.
