Abstract: L'invention concerne un appareil permettant une distribution à faible volume de boissons gazeuses. Cet appareil n'utilise, de préférence, pas d'équipement à réfrigération mécanique, et, au lieu de cela, il repose sur un transfert thermique provenant d'un bac à glace de manière à refroidir l'eau et un sirop pour boissons gazeuses destinées aux boissons. Une plaque d'échange thermique comporte, de préférence, des lignes de transfert destinées à l'eau entrante provenant et se dirigeant vers un carbonateur. Une partie de la plaque d'échange thermique ou une seconde plaque d'échange thermique comprend des lignes de transfert de sirop et d'eau carbonée. Cette eau carbonée est utilisée pour refroidir le sirop à travers la seconde plaque d'échange thermique, et elle est également mélangée au sirop afin de distribuer une boisson gazeuse. On élimine la chaleur provenant de l'eau entrante et du sirop en faisant fondre la glace du bac à glace, qu'on peut à nouveau remplir suivant les besoins.

Abstract: Social information, including computer communication information, is
modeled according to a network approach, and users are provided with
representations of patterns within their social spaces and graphical interface
tools for navigating through the spaces. This can enhance the user's ability to
seek out social information and manage their online social relationships. The
social mapping includes automatically collecting computer communication
information relating to multiple contacts who are in computer communication
with each other, one of the multiple contacts being a selected user. The
computer communication information is filtered according to one or more
preselected criteria to maintain the number of contacts associated with the
selected user at or below a selected threshold. The computer communication
information is analyzed to determine extents of similarity between the multiple
contacts. A visualization of a social map based upon the extents of similarity
between the multiple contacts is rendering on a computer display screen so
that a user can access and navigate information represented in the social
map visualization.

Abstract: There is provided a divided fuel injection control apparatus that is capable of setting
maps based on variation in rail pressure caused by pilot injection, and interference of
injection waveforms of the pilot injection and main injection caused by a delay in operation
of fuel injection valves, and correcting the main target injection time according to the first
correction value and a correction factor calculated from the maps to thereby offset the
influence of the pilot injection. Therefore, it is possible to eradicate the influence of the
pilot injection on the succeeding main injection to realize accurate fuel injection based on
the target injection quantity, thus preventing various troubles even if error in injection
quantity occurs.

Abstract: A common electrode and an individual-electrode are provided
in plural pairs on a first transparent substrate, and
recesses are formed in a second substrate in positions
corresponding to the pairs of electrodes to define discharge
cells of display cells. The display cells of a display panel
can be individually driven on the cell-by-cell basis and the
planar panel has a reduced thickness. A driving circuit for

applied to the individual electrode within a unit time to
make gradation display is provided, and gradation control is
achieved by performing switching control for each of the
individual electrodes provided independently of one another
in one-to-one relation to the display cells. A voltage pulse
is applied to the individual electrode to reverse the
polarity of wall charges accumulated on a dielectric layer,
and a voltage pulse is then applied to the common electrode
so that an electric field of the wall charges caused upon the
reversal of the polarity is additionally applied. Thereby
provided are a planar display panel which can set a large
control margin in the display operation, ensure stable
display, and present gradation display with high reliability
and quality, as well as a manufacturing method, a controller,
and a driving method for the planar display panel.

IPC: G01N27/447
Filed: 2000-10-31
Abstract: A method is provided for comparing multiple samples of cell extract
containing a plurality of components. The method comprises the steps of
preparing at least two samples of cell extract from at least two groups of
cells and of exposing each of said sample of said cell extract to a different
one of a set of matched markers, e.g. luminescent markers, to bind the
marker to the cell extract to label the cell extract, each marker within said
set of markers being capable of binding to the cell extract and can be
individually detected from all other markers within said set. The samples
are then mixed to form a mixture and said mixture is electrophoresed to
separate the components within the cell extract. 
     At least two electronic images of the electrophoresed mixture are obtained
(I) by detection of the individual markers, each image being represented
by detection of a marker different from the others. 
     One resultant electronic image (Ires) of the obtained at least two electronic
images is created (II) and analyzed in order to identify spot analysis areas
(III). 
     The identified spot analysis areas are applied on the respective at least
two electronic images for evaluating said areas in order to detect spots
representing components of said cell extracts (IV).

Abstract: A system for reinforced concrete construction, which relates the bar mat (3) with
the molding panels (4,5) so as to obtain a rigid assembly capable of resisting the pressure of
the placed concrete. The system integrates concrete's reinforcement and formwork,
thereby making a rigid reinforcement web permitting direct attachment of the molding
panels (4,5) on it, holding them from the inside and avoiding the heavy external structure
commonly used to stiffen the forms. This rigid assembly may be obtained by welded
joints in the reinforcement web, and, or, using specially designed bar support devices
such as tie and spacer units (14), intended to set in place both reinforcement and sheathing.
Thus, the embodiment of the proposed system requires a method of assembly, which
considers a combination of standard and invented elements. The latter are
reinforcement welded mats (3) and joists, and elements as ties, spacers (14), washer plates (6) and
sleeves for interlocking the bar mat and the molding panels together. The embodiment
considers as well the use of standard elements, such as deformed reinforcement steel
bars, and plywood or similar molding sheathing. The proposed system is intended for
the construction of walls, columns, beams, slabs or any building member in cast-in-place
reinforced concrete.

Abstract: An architecture and memory mapping technique for an extended
multiprocessor (XMP) computer system are provided to
overcome physical/electrical limitations of single bus
architecture while maximizing bus bandwidth utilization. 
     The XMP computer system includes multiple SMP nodes each
including an XMP interface and a repeater structure. The
SMP nodes are connected to each other by unidirectional
point-to-point links. The repeater structure in each SMP
node includes an upper level bus coupled to one or more
transaction repeaters. Each transaction repeater broadcasts
transactions to bus devices attached to separate lower level
buses. Transactions originating in a particular SMP node
are stored in a queue, whereas transactions originating in
other SMP nodes bypass the incoming queue to the bus device. 
     Multiple transactions may be simultaneously broadcast across
the point-to-point link connections between the SMP nodes in
a defined, uniform order. Each of the n SMP nodes is
assigned 1/n of the total address space. Cache coherency
information is stored for the memory in each SMP node. 
     Memory regions may be assigned to operate in one of three
modes: normal, migratory, or replicate. When operating in
normal mode, transaction to an address space assigned to a
particular node are tried only locally in that node first. 
     In migratory mode transactions are always sent globally. 
     And in replicate mode duplicate copies of the replicate
memory region are assigned to each SMP node so that
transactions are always tried locally first, and only sent
globally if an improper cache coherency state is returned.
