Abstract: An integrated analog circuit having a circuit topolo­gy and intrinsic characteristics which may be selected by digital control means is formed by batteries of simi­lar circuit components arranged substantially in paral­lel or in a matrix array, anyone of which may be isola­ted or not by means of a dedicated integrated switch and by alternative interconnection paths among the different circuit components and/or batteries of circuit components, which may be also be selected by closing a relative inte­grated switch. A dedicated nonvolatile memory, integra­ted on the same chip may be permanently programmed and determine a certain configuration of all the integrated switches thus selecting a particular component or more compo­nents of each of said batteries of functionally similar components, and/or selecting a certain intercon­nection path among the different circuit components in order to form a functional integrated circuit having the desired topology and intrinsic characteristics. The integrated nonvolatile memory is programmed by means of a software program which may take as input data the desired values of the different parameters which determine the intrinsic characteristics of the functional analog circuit and the type of functional analog circuit itself.

Abstract: Method of making a rapidly hardening hydraulic binder for mixing with water, the hardened mass produced therefrom having a defined water resistance. Calcium sulphate  alpha -hemihydrate is used as the rapidly hardening component in a predetermined starting quantity, the hardened mass thereof having a time-dependent water resistance curve which, starting from a high initial strength value of the rapid hardening, shows a negative slope in the first twentyeight days. Granulated blast-furnace slag is admixed to the calcium sulphate  alpha -hemihydrate. The quantity of granulated blast-furnace slag is matched to the starting quantity of calcium sulphate  alpha -hemihydrate in such a way that, after the rapid hardening, formation of crystalline ettringite and formation of calcium hydrosilicate phases occurs and the time-dependent water resistance curve of the hardened mixture shows a constant positive slope in the first twentyeight days.

Abstract: A ticket issuing device includes a thermal head (9), a temperature detector circuit (TD) for detecting the temperature of the thermal head (9), and a printing control circuit (1, 2) for driving the thermal head to repeatedly print boarding ticket information on paper (PS) a number of times, corresponding to the number of tickets to be issued, and issuing the printed paper (PS) as tickets. In the ticket issuing device, the printing control circuit (1, 2) derives a temperature difference between the temperatures detected by the temperature detector circuit (TD) before and after each printing operation, and uses the result as the rate of tempera­ture increase of the thermal head (9), temporarily sets the thermal head (9) into a non-active state for a period of time (TD1) corresponding to a difference between the rate of the temperature rise and a reference value (α) set to be higher than the rate of the tempera­ture rise which will be attained in the course of the printing operation at normal printing density, when it is detected that the rate of temperature increase has exceeded the reference value (α) and then starts the printing operation.

Abstract: Arrangements are disclosed for use in a data processing system which executes a program which outputs cryptographic service requests for operations with cryptographic keys which are associated with control vectors defining the functions which each key is allowed by its originator to perform. The control vectors having an arbitrary length. A control vector register (90) having an arbitrary length stores a control vector of arbitrary length associated with an N-bit cryptographic key. Control vector checking means having an input coupled to the control vector register checks that the control vector authorises the cryptographic function which is requested by the cryptographic service request. A hash function generator (92) having an input coupled to the control vector register and an N-bit output maps the control vector output from the control vector register, into an N-bit hash value. A key register stores the N-bit cryptographic key. A logic block (94) having a first input coupled to the N-bit output of the hash function generator, and a second input connected to the key register, forms at the output thereof a product of the N-bit key and the N-bit hash value. An encryption device (41) having a first input for receiving a cleartext data stream and a key input coupled to the output of the logic block, forms a ciphertext data stream at the output thereof from the cleartext data stream and the product. A decryption device can be substituted for the encryption device to perform decryption operations in a similar manner.

Abstract: In the comminuting machine, a movable cutter (9) is movable by means of a lifting and lowering device (10) at least approximately parallel to a stationary cutter (11) and is subjected to a force directed oppositely to the cutting pressure. Only one drive is required for the cutter (9), as a result of which the machine is constructed in a structurally simple and inexpensive manner. As a result of the cutters (9 and 11) being movable at low speed parallel to one another, the noise and dust emission is extremely small. The cutting pressure necessary for the cutting operation is applied by the lifting and lowering device (10). Since the material is detached in one shearing operation, the power consumption can be kept low. …<IMAGE>…

Abstract: The invention relates to lenses, prisms or other optical members which are subjected to high-power ultraviolet light having a wavelength of about 360 nm or less, or ionizing radiation, particularly optical members for use in laser exposure apparatus for lithography, and to blanks for such optical members. The homogeneity of the refractive index distribution and the resistance to optical deterioration when the optical members are exposed for a long period of time to short wavelength ultraviolet light from a laser beam are improved. The optical members are made of high-purity synthetic silica glass material containing at least about 50 wt. ppm of OH groups, and are doped with hydrogen. The refractive index distribution caused by the fictive temperature distribution during heat treatment in the process of producing high-purity silica glass blanks for optical members in accordance with the present invention is offset by the combined refractive index distribution determined by the OH group concentration distribution or by the OH group concentration distribution and the Cl concentration distribution in the glass.

Abstract: Subliminal sound recordings are produced, in which, in addition to the use of a primary carrier such as music, two sound channels are used to supply subliminal messages to the brain. On one channel which stimulates the left cerebral hemisphere, the supplied message comprises meaningfully spoken, forward-masked, enabling affirmations delivered in canonical fashion by a male voice, a female voice and a child's voice. On the other channel, which stimulates the right cerebral hemisphere, instruction messages are recorded with backward masking (or in metacontrast) using the same voices. The three voices are recorded in canonical fashion with full echo/reverberation effect. The sound tracks are mixed using a special processor which converts sound frequencies into electric pulses and controls the synchronisation of the subliminal message in stereo with the primary carrier. The processor maintains a constant level differential between the primary carrier and the speech of the subliminal message and ensures, especially since the subliminal message is recorded in canonical fashion with full echo/reverberation effect, that nothing is lost from the message. The primary carrier should consist of continuous music without pauses and without significant differences in movement.
