Abstract: A reproduced signal from a recording medium 1 is
equalized at partial response (1, 0, -1) by a reproducing
equalizer 3, and is converted into a reproduced and
equalized signal. A clock reproducing circuit 4 issues
a reproduced clock synchronized with the timing of data
identification, and applies it to a phase adjusting
circuit 5. A phase control signal generating circuit 6A
detects a specific pattern from a reproduced digital
signal issued from an A/D converter 7, and the advance
or delay amount of phase of the reproduced clock is
detected by the amplitude or distribution of the sampling
value. This phase deviation amount is given to the phase
adjusting circuit 5 as a phase control signal. The phase
adjusting circuit 5 given a delayed clock to the A/D
converter 7, and controls to A/D convert the reproduced
signal at correct timing.

Abstract: A database is formed for providing two intelligent network services in connection with the same call, the database comprising data on the mutual compatibility of the different intelligent network services. In connection with each such call which involves at least one first intelligent network services and one second intelligent network service, an exchange receives the data on the first intelligent network services. If this data is sufficient for arming detection points, the exchange arms the detection points from which the first intelligent network services will be activated if the activation criteria are met during the call. The exchange also determines the data for arming a second detection point from which the second intelligent network service will be activated if the activation criteria are met during the call. The exchange examines the compatibility of the second intelligent network service with the first intelligent network services on the basis of the compatibility database and uses the result of the examination to route the call.

Abstract: A system and method for providing interactive computer assisted
teaching. The system is premised on and extends the ubiquitous nature of
paper in classroom environments to be an interaction medium with a computer
based system. By utilizing intelligent form and embedded data processing,
highly interactive and customized teaching applications can be created. A
student and other members of the educational community interacts with the
system by making marks on an educational material and then scanning that
educational material back into the system. Intelligent forms processing
techniques are used to identify the marks made and pass them on to a teaching
application. The teaching application will then determine an appropriate course
of interaction, which may include having a responsive educational material
printed out for the student. The system provides for having a single computer in
a classroom, wherein students can use a familiar medium, paper, to interact with
the computer. Moreover, each student in the classroom can concurrently benefit
from having the computer in the classroom. Teaching applications may also be
created used by the system to facilitate participation of parents and school
administrators in the educational process.

IPC: H04H40/45
Filed: 1999-10-29
Abstract: In an FM multiplex decoder circuit of this invention, when the
cycle interval of detection signal of continuous "1" or "0" elongates
and therefore erroneous sampling clock occurs, the shift clock is
forced into stopping. Therefore, erroneous extra data is not sent
to the shift register, thereby data that detection signal is normally
decoded can be output from the shift register. Also, even when the
cycle interval of detection signal of continuous "1" or "0" shortens
to elongate the sampling clock cycle and therefore data to be taken
by the latch circuit decreases, in a shift clock period newly
generated, inverted latch signal can be taken by the shift register.
Thus, the shift register can take data lost to latch signal.
Therefore, data that detection signal is normally decoded can be
output from the shift register.

Abstract: A moving picture encoding method and apparatus for processing digital signals,
and a recording medium, in which, when it is specified to skip a portion of a moving
picture program to be reproduced, the program portion lying forwardly of a skipping
start point and the program portion lying backwardly of a skipping end point are to
be reproduced seamlessly. An analysis unit assumes that a GOP (GOP-new-0) is
encoded with a pre-set quantity of allocated bits, and calculates a bit storage quantity
(boe) of a virtual decoder after the end of decoding of the last picture of the GOP
(GOP-new-0) (step S24). The analysis unit then compares the size of the bit storage
quantity (boe) to the size of the bits (step S25). If the size of the bit storage quantity
(boe) is found to exceed the size of the bits, a picture B0 of the GOP (GOP-0) is
re-encoded to an I-picture I0x, while an out-point picture B1 is re-encoded to a
p-picture P1x, in order to generate a new GOP (GOP-new-0).
