IPC: H04B10/20
Filed: 1991-07-16
Abstract: A transmission device for the unidirectional transmission of messages via a branched broadband transmission network and for the bidirectional transmission of additional signals. A transmission of additional signals is made possible with means which are easily implemented, due to the fact that the messages can be transmitted via a unidirectional broadband transmission network containing optical waveguides and optical couplers and the additional signals can be transmitted via a separate bidirectional supplementary transmission network and that the additional-signal transmission network contains optical waveguides and optical couplers.

Abstract: Disclosed is a process of preparing a catalyst supporting highly metal particles comprising, in the presence of ethylene and/or acetylene in a solution containing a metal-containing ion and a support on which metal particles produced by reduction of the metal-containing ion are supported, reducing by means of a reductant the metal-containing ion to the corresponding metal particles which are then supported on the support. According to the process of this invention, because of the presence of the ethylene and/or acetylene which is supposed to have a function of depressing the deposition of new metal particles present around the metal particles supported on the support, that is, the growth of the metal particles and another function of preventing the agglomeration among the metal particles supported, the catalyst of the desired properties can be prepared.

Abstract: A sheet of writing paper which is white, but which has been colored, or tinted to a pastel color by printing on its surface with a strippable or chemically removable ink. The surface printing with ink allows the paper to have a desirable tinted color, but allows the color to be easily removed so that the paper can be relatively easily recycled and reused without the normal problems associated with recycling of vat-dyed tinted papers. The surface printing can be accomplished by printing a random spotted pattern on the paper to provide for the perception of tinting. The invention allows the printed pattern to have a random-toned effect or allows the visual incorporation of words or symbols which would very subtly appear, macroscopically, in the tinting pattern.

Abstract: Disclosed is a system and method for managing spare bit steering information in a multi-processor system having a global/local memory architecture. During the system boot cycle one of the multiple processors 1, 2, 3, 4 is selected to test global memory and to configure the steering of the spare bits by bank or the like. Each processor tests its own local memory 8 and defines the associated spare bit steering for the local memory. The global memory 14 spare bit steering configuration information, as well as other global memory configuration information, in the selected processor 1 is distributed to the other processors 2, 3, 4 using registers 16 in a commonly accessible atomic semaphore controller 13 or through a commonly accessible block of global memory. Preferably, the selection of the processor to test the global memory is performed so that no single processor always has the responsibility. In this way, the acquisition of global memory spare bit steering information is not linked to the operative status of any one processor.

Abstract: A magnetoresistive read sensor incorporates a multilayer sensing element formed of one or more magnetoresistive elements in a planar array, each magnetoresistive element having a multilayer structure of at least two ferromagnetic layers separated by a nonmagnetic layer. The ferromagnetic layers are coupled antiferromagnetically by magnetostatic coupling at opposing edges of the ferromagnetic layers. A bias layer separated from the magnetoresistive sensing element by a spacer layer provides a magnetic field to bias the magnetoresistive sensing element at a desired non-signal point for linear response. The magnetoresistive sensing element is formed by alternatively depositing layers of ferromagnetic material (47,51) and layers of nonmagnetic material (49) on a substrate (41) and then patterning the resulting structure using photolithographic techniques to provide a planar array of magnetoresistive elements. A conductive layer is deposited over the array filling in the spaces separating the magnetoresistive elements to provide electrical conductivity between the elements in the plane of the structure.

     A polygon is selected as a favourite for placing on a list, tree or graph, wherein each list, tree or graph relates to a set of viewable directions bounded by planes. The extents of a point on the favourite polygon to a bounding plane are compared with the extent of a point on a candidate polygon to the bounding plane. 
     If a nearest point of a favourite polygon to a bounding plane is further away from the plane than a furthest point of the candidate polygon, the favourite polygon may be placed on the rendering order list, tree or graph.
