Abstract: The present invention provides a cache system comprising a cache memory in which the number of write cycles to a disk is decreased by using write command receiving bits in the entries of a directory memory (35) and by using a specified write instruction designation bit in the W-command in such a way, that in the case of a specified W-command it is checked if there are N or more entries whose write command receiving bits are set, i.e. if there are N or more blocks which have been written in cache memory but not yet in the disk, so that, if a cache hit is detected in the case of the disk write command whose specified write construction designation bit is set, the corresponding write data is registered only in the cache if the number of blocks not written in the disk is smaller than N. In this way a disk write operation is always performed in response to a disk write instruction from a host system, even in the case that the cache hit occurs.

Abstract: A substrate (31) with a high transmissivity for visible light is coated with a layer structure (32, 33, 34, 43, 44) in order in the case of high transmissivity for visible light to achieve a high reflectivity for thermal radiation. For this purpose, two metal layers (33, 43), which are separated from one another by a dielectric spacer layer (34) and which preferably consist of silver, are embedded between a dielectric intermediate layer (32) and a dielectric cover layer (44). The dielectric layers (32, 34, 44) each contain niobium oxide as main constituent. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A conductive sensor and its use in a diagnostic assay are disclosed. The miniaturized conductive sensor, utilizing a conducting polymer, is used in a diagnostic device to determine the presence or concentration of a predetermined analyte in a liquid test sample, wherein the predetermined analyte, like glucose, is assayed by an oxidase interaction. The interaction between the oxidase and a small amound of the predetermined analyte in the test sample generates, either directly or indirectly, a dopant compound in a reaction zone of the conductive sensor. The dopant compound then migrates to the detection zone of the conductive sensor of the diagnostic device to oxidize the conducting polymer and convert the conducting polymer from an insulating form to a conducting form. The resulting increase in conductivity of the conducting polymer is measured, then the conductivity increase is correlated to the concentration of the predetermined analyte in the test sample.

Abstract: The test tube holder includes an elongated tubular member which supports a pivot member and receives a removable adapter member. The adapter member accommodates a test tube and can be interchanged with another adapter member that accommodates a different size test tube. Biasing springs are provided in the adapter member to hold the test tube therein. The biasing force of the biasing springs against the test tube is predetermined to permit easy insertion and removal of the test tube from the adapter member. The test tube holder which includes the adapter member can be joined to other similar test tube holders in a manner which permits relative pivoting and tilting of one test tube holder with respect to another test tube holder. The test tube holder further includes a detent arrangement for inseparably detenting the adapter member in the tubular member when a test tube is present in the tubular member. Removal of the test tube from the test tube holder enables the adapter member to be separated from the tubular member.

Abstract: A tuning system of a television receiver includes a digital automatic fine tuning (AFT) unit (20) for generating a digital AFT signal representing the deviation of the frequency of the picture carrier of the IF signal (IF) from a nominal frequency. The digital AFT unit includes a counter (22) for counting cycles of picture carrier during repetitive counting intervals which occur during a measurement period having a duration as least as long as the duration of one field of a television signal. The duration and spacing of the counting intervals are selected so that at least one counting interval occurs during the vertical blanking interval in which the picture carrier is not likely to be over-modulated and therefore not likely to result in erroneous low counts. The contents of the counter are evaluated at the end of each counting cycle to determine if a first count corresponding to a nominal frequency or a second count corresponding to the frequency having a positive frequency deviation have been produced. At the end of the measurement interval, the frequency of the picture carrier relative to the nominal frequency is evaluated by determining which one, if any of the first and second counts have been produced. A low frequency is indicated by the absence of both. A frequency within specified limits is indicated by the presence of the first but not the second counts A high frequency is indicated by the presence of both counts. The technique employed does not require that the timing signal be synchronized with the vertical blanking interval for reliable counting.

Abstract: Disclosed is in situ decontamination methods and apparatus for injecting a hot gas (14) into boreholes formed in a contaminated soil area (12) to vaporize the soil moisture and contaminants, and for collecting the vaporized contaminants at the surface of the soil. A burner (49) heats pressurized gases and mixes the same with combustion gases for injection into the contaminated zone. A central collection system recovers the vaporized contaminants and couples such vapors to an on-site incinerator (20) for disposal. Controlled heating of the injection gas is effective to sequentially remove different types of contaminants, as well as to provide in situ oxidation of other contaminants, while minimizing recondensation of the soil vapors. Wellbore casings are especially adapted for injecting the gas in predetermined patterns. In addition, a heater and incinerator assembly utilizes a single burner for both heating the dry gas and for incinerating the vapor contaminants.

Abstract: An active suspension system is disclosed for a motorized vehicle and the like. Generally these types of active suspension systems have an impact harshness to sharp road irregularities higher than that of passive suspension systems. This invention incorporates a frequency response shaping network (42) which alters the frequency signal from a hub sensor (36) by analyzing the frequency signal in view of its components of magnitude and phase, and shaping these components into a desired form. The modified or shaped signals are then applied to the basic control laws of the vehicle dynamics to modify the damping signal applied to an active actuator (38) in such a way that the actuator (38) applies the appropriate damping to the vehicles wheels (32) with greatly reduced harshness.

Abstract: Waveform data written in a RAM 2 based on write addresses is always read out as two waveform data from two read addresses 1 and 2 designated by a CPU 1, and two interpolation data 1 and 2 are formed. A smaller address difference A between the write address and the read address 1 is multiplied with the interpolation data 1 as an envelope value to obtain cross-fade data 1. Similarly, cross-fade data 2 corresponding to the read address 2 is obtained. The two items of cross-fade data 1 and 2 are added to each other to obtain output waveform data. An envelope value of waveform data near a waveform discontinuous point becomes almost zero, and click noise can be eliminated.

Abstract: A multiplexer (13) selects the input terminal (B) side for a display period while it selects the input terminal (A) side for a coordinate detection period. A lower common drive circuit (2L), based on shift data transmitted from the multiplexer (13), operates in parallel with an upper common drive circuit (2U) during the display period while it operates in series with the upper common drive circuit (2U) during the coordinate detection period. An upper segment drive circuit (3U) and a lower segment drive circuit (3L) simultaneously operate to drive upper segment electrodes (XU) and lower segment electrodes (XL) simultaneously in the same direction. Thus, during the display period there is displayed an image simultaneously onto the upper half (1wU) and the lower half (1wL) of a display panel (1w), thereby improving the duty ratio of display. During the coordinate detection period, on the other hand, the upper half (1wU) and the lower half (1wL) of the display panel (1w) are serially scanned during the coordinate detection period, whereby y-coordinates of two points (P₁ and P₂) are detected correctly.
