Abstract: The present invention provides methods and apparatus for detecting and 
discriminating multiple analytes within a test sample which are rapid, accurate, and 
convenient enough for routine use in a clinical laboratory. In particular, the present 
invention provides methods and apparatus for permitting multiple PCR-amplified 
target nucleic acid sequence hybrids within a single sample, labeled with different 
fluorescent dyes, to be spectrally distinguished using the read-out data directly from 
a fluorescence reader instrument.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method and a circuit arrangement for adjusting the
level and/or dynamic range of an audio signal in a transmission system and
particularly in a mobile station. According to the invention, the level of acoustic
noise in the environment of a terminal (10, 12) and the level and noise level of
a received signal are measured (123) and the level and/or dynamic range of the
reproduced signal are adjusted (121, 122) according to the results from said
measurements. The solution according to the invention helps reduce the effect
of noise in the signal transmitted on the transmission channel (11) and of the
acoustic noise in the environment of the terminal (12) on the intelligibility of the
reproduced information.

Abstract: In a method for editing recorded information
having a format that both a video (picture) signal and an
audio (sound) signal are recorded on a recording medium
in a combination form, the recorded information is reproduced
(102); a detection (103) is made as to whether or
not a predetermined condition is produced in the audio
signal of the recorded information which is reproduced;
discriminating information indicative of an editing
position is produced based on such a position that the
predetermined condition in the recorded information is
detected; and then this discriminating information is
displayed (107) on a screen of a display apparatus. A
storage medium for storing a program code read/executed
by a computer, stores therein a first section for storing
therein a program code of precedure used to detect as to
whether or not a predetermined condition is produced in
an audio signal while reproducing recorded information
containing a video signal and an audio signal related to
this video signal; and a second section for storing
therein another program code of procedure used to produce
discriminating information indicative of a position where
a predetermined state in the recorded information is detected,
and also used to display this discriminating
information on a screen of a display apparatus.

Abstract: A refresh circuit (230) and a method for the refresh of dynamic
memory devices (201) are described where the rows to be refreshed
are determined by a logical function and by a reference address
(223). The availability of refresh signals (215) for the rows at the
outputs (217) of a decoder (214) is determined by control logic
(224) which is connected to an address generator (212) and to a
reference register (222) which contains a reference address (223).
By supplying the reference address (223) to the refresh circuit (230)
it is possible to determine which rows are to be refreshed. The
memory array (210) of the dynamic memory device (201) can be
refreshed partially and energy consumption for the refresh can be
reduced.

Abstract: An interconnect structure having a dielectric layer
with low dielectric constant is formed within an
integrated circuit. In one embodiment of the invention,
portions of a silicon dioxide layer (18) lying adjacent to a
conductive interconnect (21) are removed to expose
portions of a silicon nitride etch stop layer (16). A
dielectric layer (22) having a low dielectric constant is
then formed overlying the conductive interconnect (21)
and the exposed portions of the silicon nitride etch stop
layer (16). A portion of the dielectric layer (22) is then
removed to expose the top surface of the conductive
interconnect (21) to leave portions of the dielectric layer
(22) between adjacent conductive interconnects (21).
The resulting interconnect structure has reduced cross-talk
between conductive interconnects (21) while
avoiding prior art disadvantages of reduced thermal
dissipation and increased mechanical stress.
