Abstract: A system for enabling an aircraft (10) to accomplish extremely short takeoffs and
landings, which includes an integrated flight control system (20); a takeoff system; a landing
system and a high thrust-to-weight propulsion system (21). The integrated flight propulsion
control system (20) includes a multi-axis thrust vectoring system (21). The takeoff system is
operably engageable with the multi-axis thrust vectoring system (21). The takeoff system
includes means (22) for rotating the aircraft nose upwardly below stall speed without
substantial use of thrust vectoring from the multi-axis thrust vectoring system. The
landing system (16,18) is operably engageable with the multi-axis thrust vectoring system (21). It
includes means (22) for de-rotating the aircraft (10) from a high angle of attack to a main gear (18)
touchdown angle of attack sufficiently low to avoid scraping the tail of the aircraft. The
high thrust-to-weight propulsion system (21) is connected to the integrated flight propulsion
control system for providing sufficient lift to support the aircraft (10) at speeds below stall
speed.

Abstract: A system for providing keywords to facilitate a search in a text retrieval system.
For each of texts constituting a text base, the system creates a word ID of each of words
used in the text and a word occurrence count of a corresponding word. The word
occurrence count indicates a number of occurrences of a word in each text. For each of
words used in any of the texts constituting the text base, the system creates a total word
occurrence count and a containing text count indicative of the number of texts containing
the word. For each of words contained in the selected texts, a degree of importance is
calculated by using the word occurrence count, the total word occurrence count and the
containing text count. The words contained in the selected texts are sorted in order of the
degree of importance. At least a part of the sorted words are displayed as related
keywords.

Abstract: A limb protector comprising outer shell knee and/or shin elements that are contoured to
the underlying leg and which maybe pivotally coupled to one another. Padding is positioned
between the leg and the outer shell(s) and may be formed of a shock absorbent foam, a plurality
of interconnected fluid filled cushions, or a combination thereof. The padding may be coupled to
the outer shell shin element so as to create a gap between itself and the outer shell shin element.
Alternatively, the padding may positioned on the lateral and medial sides of the outer shell knee
element to cradle the underlying leg. The outer shell shin element comprises a raised groove
element protruding outward from the shin to form a shin-knee transition cavity located between
the shin-knee transition of the leg and the outer shell shin element. The outer shell knee element
comprises a centrally positioned domed element protruding outward from the knee generally
overlying the patella and may also overlie the shin-knee transition area. The outer shell knee
element may also have a tongue element extending downward toward the ankle so as to
interlock within the raised groove element. The padding element may comprise a U-shaped
opening positioned underneath the raised groove and above the shin-knee transition of the leg
and an elongated flange element in overlapping configuration with a portion of the padding that
is located below the U-shaped opening. The padding element and the outer shell element(s) are
configured so that the shin-knee transition area and the patella do not absorb force.

Abstract: A method for precision polishing non-planar, aspherical surfaces in
substrates having variations in figure which are within an order of about ten
wavelengths (10λ) is performed by coating the non-planar, aspherical surface with
a thin, uniform layer of material, single-point-diamond turning the layer to achieve
a layer surface with an excellent surface figure, and etching the layer surface down
into the substrate to completely remove the layer thereby transferring the excellent
surface figure to the substrate.

Abstract: A method of forming a MOS transistor without a lightly
doped drain (LDD) region between the channel region and drain is
provided. The channel region is formed from a tilted ion implantation
after the deposition of the gate oxide layer. The tilted implantation forms
a relatively short channel length, with respect to the length of the gate
electrode. The position of the channel is offset, and directly adjoins the
source. The non-channel area under the gate, adjacent the drain, replaces
the LDD region between the channel and the drain. This drain extension
acts to more evenly distribute electric fields so that large breakdown
voltages are possible. The small channel length, and eliminated LDD
region adjacent the source, act to reduce resistance between the source
and drain. In this manner, larger I d  currents and faster switching speeds
are obtained. A MOS transistor having a short, offset channel and drain
extension is also provided.

Abstract: A process is disclosed for the preparation of a polyester polymer or polyester copolymer
under superatmospheric pressure conditions in a pipe or tubular reaction under
turbannular flow conditions. Reaction material having a glycol equivalents to carboxylic
acid equivalents mole ratio of from 1.0:1 to 1.2:1, together with a superatmospheric
dense gaseous medium are fed co-currently to the reactor. Dicarboxylic acid and /or
diol raw materials may be injected into any of the reaction zones in the process during
operation to achieve the overall desired mole ratio balance. The process operates at
temperatures of from about 220°C to about 320°C, with turbannular flow achieved
before the polymer product and gas exit the reactor process. The pressure in the
reaction zones can be in the range from 15 psia to 2500 psia (∼103-17238 kPa). A
polymer product having a DP of a greater than 40, more preferably at least about 70,
is achieved by the transfer of water from the reacting material polymer melt to the
gaseous medium in the reactor.

Abstract: A digital signal processing architecture is disclosed which is
operable to receive a spread-spectrum/CDMA signal and perform
the despreading operation thereon. The quadrature and in-band
components of the signal ( r I    ,  r Q   ) are received and stored in a
memory (322). The digital signal processor is operable to
execute a plurality of single instructions in a sequential
manner, one for each instruction cycle. Each of these single
instructions cause data to be extracted from the memory (322),
processed and an output provided in the form of a despread
signal ( R I    ,  R Q   ). The process is performed in response to the
generation of the single instruction by placing in the data path
a DSP process that will perform the despreading operation by
performing various multiplications, summations, and
accumulations, all in a single instruction cycle.

Abstract: A bus bridge (10) with a common queue (15) and a bypass queue (14) has a
bypassable transaction that is directly loaded to the bypass queue (14). For example,
all read transactions from a PCI bus (12) are directly loaded to the bypass queue. This
avoids the route through the common queue to the bypass queue for a read transaction
that cannot be loaded on a second PCI bus (13). Two single bit wide queues are
required to enforce ordering, the lock queue and the key queue. The lock queue has
the same depth as the bypass queue and is affiliated to it. The key queue is affiliated
to the common queue and has the same depth as the common queue. When an entry
is loaded to the bypass queue, it is locked by setting the corresponding bit in the lock
queue to 1 if there is at least one entry in the common queue and the previous entry
was loaded into the common queue. If an incoming transaction to the bypass queue is
locked in the lock queue, the entry in the key queue corresponding to the last entry
in the common queue is also set to 1. Thus, for every locked entry in the bypass
queue a key is set in the common queue. A locked entry cannot be unloaded until the
corresponding keyed entry is unloaded.
