Abstract: In step S1, the address generator generates, address information composed of a sync signal which is recorded on an optical disc, address data and an error correction code for the address data, pre-encodes and supplies it to a modulator. At the same time, a carrier signal generator generates a carrier signal which is to carry the address information, and supplies it to the modulator. In step S2, the modulator makes MSK modulation of the carrier signal supplied from the carrier signal generator on the basis of the pre-encoded address information supplied from the address generator, and supplies a resultant MSK modulation signal to a wobbling unit. In step S3, the wobbling unit forms, on the optical disc, a spiral groove wobbled adaptively to the MSK modulation signal supplied from the modulator. In this optical disc, a given address can be accessed quickly and accurately.

Abstract: The electronic device (10) has a data communication bus (12) consisting of a plurality of substantially parallel conductors (12a, 12b, 12c, 12d). A control circuit (14) controls the values driven onto the conductors (12a, 12b, 12c, 12d). Transition dependent delay elements (16a, 16b, 16c, 16d) are coupled between the control circuit (14) and the respective conductors (12a, 12b, 12c, 12d) to delay certain transitions on the data communication bus 12. In particular, one of the opposite transitions on neighboring conductors e.g. a first conductor (12a) and a second conductor (12b) is delayed, thus reducing the power required to charge the mutual capacitance between the first conductor (12a) and the second conductor (12b). Consequently, a data communication bus (12) with reduced power consumption is obtained.

Abstract: As additive for the production of paper and board to improve the strength of a wet web a copolymer stabilized with a cationic polysaccharide is proposed in which copolymer an acrylamide of metacrylamide, vinylic carboxyl acid and optionally other vinylic monomers are used as monomers. The wet strength of a web means the strength of a paper or board web during production at a dry solids content of 20-60%. The additive according to the invention improves, in addition to the wet strength of the web, also the surface resistance of the product. Compared to the additives of the prior art, a small relative ratio of the number of the side chains to the cationic groups is used, because a polysaccharide having a higher cationic character has been found to provide better stability.

Abstract: Each object is cut into a number of blocks, and the different blocks are distributed in different storage devices according to a distribution law. In order to manage the distribution of blocks, a parameter is used called the flexibility coefficient is determined, linked to the popularity of different data blocks.  The procedure provides distribution of objects, within a heterogeneous group of objects, in a data storage system. Each object is cut into a number of blocks, and the different blocks are distributed in different storage devices according to a distribution law. In order to manage the distribution of blocks, a parameter is used called the flexibility coefficient (CF(i)), representing the difference between the weights of parts of the object (i). Periodically values representative of the variability of the popularity of each object are measured and calculated. At a given time, t, a chosen flexibility coefficient (CFv(i)) is calculated from these values, and a real flexibility coefficient (CFr(i)) is also determined.

Abstract: The invention concerns a device for producing several different odoriferous and/or attractive substances. Said device comprises one or several flexible containers (1) containing odoriferous substances and from which said odoriferous and/or attractive substances are derived to be collected in one or several evaporators (4), via one or several supply conduits (2), then from one or several micro-pumps (3) produced by microsystem technology, optionally via a n over m type valve, and finally via several supply conduits (11). Each evaporator is provided with a device for temperature setting at evaporation point. A ventilating apparatus (5) generates a carrier air stream in a flow pipe (9) and expels from the inventive device the vapour of odoriferous and/or attractive substances, in the direction of one or several target persons or into a space. An electronic control apparatus (10) detects the values of the temperature sensor at evaporation point and supplies data concerning the evaporated volume flow rate of fluid odoriferous substances, and hence on the operating conditions of the device and on the evaporated amount of odoriferous and/or attractive substances. The analysis of the values enable to regulate the temperature of the evaporator and the flow rate, and to inform the user or the operator about dysfunction and operating states, such as depletion of stock of odoriferous and/or attractive substances. Since the delivery flow rate of the micro-pumps is adjustable in a wide range, it is possible to produce smaller amounts of odoriferous and/or attractive substances over a shorter time interval or larger amounts of odoriferous and/or attractive substances over a longer time interval. The inventive device enables not only to direct odoriferous and/or attractive substances towards individuals or groups of persons, but also to propagate said odoriferous and/or attractive substances so that they fill up completely available spaces.
