Patent JP-3847587-B2 (JP)
IPC: A01K61/00
Filed: 2001-08-23
Granted: 2006-11-22
Abstract: The invention provides a deep-water fish farming system comprising a fish cage (200) of controllable buoyancy having one or more chambers (202), which can be submerged and refloated at a controllable rate to any depth. A winch mechanism (214) mounted preferably on a platform that covers a section of the cage releases and gathers a cable connected to a sinker (306). When the combined weight of the system overcomes the buoyancy, the fish cage is submerged to a depth determined by the effective length of the cable between the winch mechanism and the sinker, with the sinker touching the sea bottom. The submerged cage is refloated to the surface by remotely activating the winch mechanism, thus releasing the cable, while keeping the sinker on the sea bottom. When the cage is refloated to the surface, the buoyancy is increased to allow pulling of the sinker from the bottom. The invention further provides a method for submerging and raising a fish cage at a controlled rate to any desired depth in deep water. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The invention allows a cluster tool to change from a first recipe to a second recipe, while preserving periodicity and ensuring that there are no delays at critical points. This procedure is referred to as recipe cascading. Cascading involves emptying a first lot of wafers off a cluster tool and populating the cluster tool with another lot of wafers, serially and simultaneously. The procedure is performed with no delays incurred at critical process steps; and with no additional robots and process modules other than those called for by the recipe and throughput requirements of the entering and the exiting lots. The entering lot may also have different recipes and throughput requirements from the exiting lot. A program residing on a computer determines a schedule for the cluster tool which enables recipe cascading. The program may use a genetic algorithm to determine the schedule, or any other optimization technique.

Abstract: A novel magnetic resonance imaging method is presented to produce a magnetic resonance image, wherein a stationary magnetic field and temporary magnetic gradient fields are applied. A sensitivity distribution (W(p)) maps the receiver sensitivity values of the receiver antennae system in an image domain. Transposition values (p(x)) map the positions in a spatial domain onto pixels (voxels) in the image domain on the basis of actual values of the stationary magnetic field and the temporary gradient fields. A folded image having aliased pixels (voxels) is then reconstructed from the magnetic resonance signals on the basis of a spatial encoding induced by the temporary magnetic field gradients. The aliased pixels (voxels) in the folded image are unfolded on the basis of the spatial receiver sensitivity map onto the respective signal distributions originating from different positions in the spatial domain so as to reconstruct the magnetic resonance image.
