Abstract: Pre-oddification of quantized discrete cosine transform (DCT)
coefficients representing video data reduces high frequency noise that
accumulates over multiple stages of encoding/decoding due to
oddification in the decoders. The quantized DCT coefficients are inverse
quantized, and the resulting inverse quantized coefficients are summed. If
the sum is even, then the last quantized coefficient [7,7] is adjusted to
reduce high frequency energy accumulation at that coefficient. The last
quantized coefficient may be set to zero, or may be
incremented/decremented by "1" in the opposite manner than oddification
occurs in the decoders. Further the values of a quantization matrix may be
set, either manually or automatically as a function of the complexity of the
video data, to assure that it is possible for the sum of the inverse quantized
coefficients to be odd.

Abstract: A coordinated cluster-tool energy distribution system provides a systems level
approach to supplying all process energy needs for such industrial applications
as those found in the semiconductor manufacturing industry,  e.g.  a single-wafer
or multiple chamber processing chamber. The system is preferably provided as
an integrated whole, rather than as a piece-meal collection of various energy
distribution elements. The system comprises a shared DC bus that provides
load diversity at lower energy levels, eliminates power supply components
and/or minimizes the operating capacity of such components, and provides a
lower installed cost; a common rectifier/filter or switcher power supply front end
that lowers overall system cost, eliminates redundant power supply
components, and provides a smaller system form factor; and (optionally) an
energy storage device,such as a battery, capacitor, or flywheel, that reduces
peak demand, thereby allowing smaller feeder circuits and a smaller energy
source, and further providing ride through protection against brown-outs.

Abstract: When an accelerator pedal is released, or when a brake
pedal (26) is depressed and if braking force is lower than a reference
braking force corresponding to a braking force immediately before
causing a wheel lock, differential limiting force of a center
differential (3) is set to a predetermined value so as to retain an
under-steer condition while engine brake is applied. When the
brake pedal (26) is depressed and if braking force is higher than the
reference braking force, differential limiting force of the
center differential (3) is set to zero so as to assist an anti-lock
brake system (40). Further, the reference braking force can be
determined according to a road friction coefficient, a grade of
road, a lateral acceleration and the like. Further, the
predetermined value of the differential limiting force may be
a constant value or may be a value corresponding to a front-to-rear

Abstract: A flow diffuser is shown for use with a flow control valve (10) which produces
laminar flow patterns in the fluid upon exiting the control valve. The flow diffuser (24) is
formed from a cylindrical body and is situated inside a flow control valve. Fluid
enters the flow diffuser after passing the poppet (20). The inlet opening for the flow
diffuser is on the axis of the body. The flow is then radially diverted through a
plurality of outlet passages. The outlet passages converge to return the flow to a
single stream. The walls of the outlet passage are defined by vanes within the body of
the flow diffuser. Upon exiting the flow diffuser the fluid enters a transition zone
until reaching the outlet port (16) of the flow control valve. The flow diffuser eliminates
turbulence, thereby reducing energy loss in the flow, wear on the valve, and noise.

Abstract: An evaporator has plural tubes (2-5, 42-45) arranged
in parallel with each other in a width direction perpendicular
to an air flowing direction (A). The tubes are further
arranged in a plural rows in the air flowing direction, and
tank portions (8-13) extending in the width direction are
arranged in the plural rows in the air flowing direction to
correspond to the tubes. In the evaporator, refrigerant flows
through a zigzag-routed refrigerant passage formed by the tank
portions and the tubes. A partition wall (16, 17) defining
adjacent two tank portions in the air flowing direction has
plural bypass holes (18) through which the adjacent two tank
portions directly communicate with each other. Therefore, the
zigzag-routed refrigerant passage of the evaporator is readily
formed without an additional side passage or the like. Thus,
the number of components of the evaporator is reduced thereby
simplifying the structure of the evaporator, and pressure
loss of refrigerant flowing in the evaporator is decreased.

cancellation can be performed offline and stored in a file.
Because, in this situation, panning is the only required
operation, this technique results in a low-computation, real-time

Abstract: This invention uses a computer program to mine preexisting hardware equipment
configuration data located in a variety of preexisting source hardware equipment
configuration databases. The computer program either creates a new hardware equipment
configuration database from parts of existing hardware equipment configuration databases
or modifies an existing hardware equipment configuration database. The computer program
replaces the current system=s reliance upon manual data entry by data engineers to
configure the operation of a new telecommunication switch or replace the software in a
telecommunication switch that was damaged or requires a new hardware equipment
configuration data configuration. This invention provides accurate and timely customer
information, significantly decreases the time interval for engineering a new database,
decreases the research and data entry time, decreases the interval for lab planning and
project management, improves hardware equipment configuration database integrity,
provides a cleaner hardware equipment configuration database, reuses existing hardware
equipment configuration data eliminating double data entry, reuses some existing software
code, and uses preexisting office data administration tools and provides a platform for future
growth and expandability. By accomplishing these tasks, the telecommunication switch
manufacturer or telecommunication switch operator saves time, money and decreases time-to-market
product and service schedules.
