Abstract: Fan-shaped depth sounders, which receive the emitted ultrasound pulses again in a large number of narrowly focussed receiving sectors, are used for charting and exploration of waterways. Since the predominant number of receiving directions are aligned such that they are inclined downwards, these ultrasound pulses propagate on a curved path, as a result of sound bending. The sound bending is caused by layers where the speed of sound differs, accurate knowledge of these layers being necessary in order to determine an average speed of sound. In the case of the proposed method, no separate measurement probe is required to determine the average speed of sound, but the average speed of sound is determined by a regression method based on the propagation time measurements of the ultrasound pulses. For this purpose, the bottom profile on which the measured propagation times are based is initially determined using an assumed average speed of sound and is compared with a bottom profile model which is composed of function elements modelled in a specific manner. Since a correction factor for the average speed of sound can be determined from the function elements, improved values for the depth of the bottom profile can be determined iteratively using the measured propagation times and the corrected speed of sound. Such a method can be used advantageously on research and survey ships in order to achieve the high accuracies required for survey technology. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Chlorine and sulfur-free fuel gas substantially comprising H₂ + CO for use as fuel in a gas turbine for the production of mechanical and electrical power and environmentally-safe flue gas is produced by the partial oxidation of liquid hydrocarbonaceous or solid carbonaceous fuels having chlorine and sulfur-containing impurities, cooling and splitting the raw fuel gas into two streams A and B, separately cooling raw fuel gas stream A by indirect heat exchange with dry N₂ gas while separately cooling the stream of raw fuel gas B by indirect heat exchange with the product stream of clean chlorine and sulfur-free fuel gas. HCl and particulate matter are then removed from raw fuel gas streams A and B; and, after combining raw fuel gas streams A and B together further cooling and removal of sulfur-containing gases takes place. By this process, attack on metal heat exchangers by the corrosive constituents in the raw fuel gas is prevented. In one embodiment, the clean chlorine and sulfur-free fuel gas is humidified and burned in the gas turbine to produce increased power and efficiency without polluting the atmosphere.

Abstract: The compensation circuit arrangement is for temperature compensation of a temperature-dependent transfer factor (KH,T.KS,T) of a sensor (2) and a coupled signal processor (3) of an Energy or Power measurement device. A transfer factor (KS,T or KF,T or KA,T) of the signal processor (3) is inversely proportional to the temperature-dependent voltage (UR,N,T) of Reference Voltage Source (4), which is positioned close to the other components and is at the same temperature. A temperature compensation value for the temperature dependent Reference Voltage (UR,N,T) is equal to the sum of the Temperature coefficient of the Transfer function (KN,T) of the sensor (2) and the temperature coefficient of the Transfer Function (KS,T or KF,T or KA,T) of the signal processor of the uncompensated Energy or Power Meter (1).

Abstract: A nonvolatile semiconductor memory device having memory cells in which a control gate (CG) is stacked on a floating gate (FG) through an insulating film. The memory device has redundant memory cells so as to compensate defective memory cells and a transistor to select the redundant memory cells and the redundant memory cells and the transistor to select the redundant memory cells are formed by a nonvolatile memory transistor. The transistor to select the redundant memory cells has a structure in which the upper surface and side walls of a floating gate are covered by a control gate or a structure in which the floating gate and control gate are covered by a light shielding film and an antireflection film formed under the light shielding film. 
     In a nonvolatile semiconductor memory device having memory cells of a structure in which a control gate is stacked on a floating gate through an insulating film, a phosphosilicate glass film is formed on side walls of the floating gate and the control gate and a silicon nitride film and an arseno-silicate glass film or boro-phospho-silicide glass film are sequentially formed so as to cover the control gate. 
     A method of manufacturing a nonvolatile semiconductor memory device of a structure in which a control gate is stacked on a floating gate through an insulating film, comprises the steps of: forming the floating gate made of a semiconductor layer and the control gate made of a layer containing a refractory metal which is stacked on the floating gate; covering the floating gate and the control gate by a film which prevents a diffusion of metal atoms and transmits oxygen; and forming a semiconductor oxide film on side walls of at least the floating gate by executing a thermal oxidation.

Abstract: A system and method for providing annotation overlays from diverse sources of commentary for World-Wide Web documents is disclosed. Sources of commentary contribute annotation overlays regarding particular documents on the World-Wide Web. The annotation overlays from a particular source are stored on one or more overlay servers, which are connected to the Web. A user of a Web browser opens an annotation proxy server between the Web browser and the Web servers that intercepts all documents retrieved by the Web browser and merges with the retrieved documents commentary from sources designated by the user of the Web browser that refer to the requested documents. Multiple annotation overlay proxies can be serially connected. The annotation proxy can perform the merge operation by first creating a local annotation directory of annotation overlays from sources designated by the user then, when the user requests a document, merging with the requested document information only from the annotation directory. Alternatively, the annotation proxy can perform the merge operation on the fly by pulling the annotation overlays directly from the Web servers without the use of a local annotation directory.
