Abstract: To reduce an amount of image data to transmit,
and thereby achieve efficient utilization of a data
transmission line, only coarse image information

Abstract: Metal surfaces, particularly copper surfaces, which are oxidatively micro-etched to
increase surface area through the use of molybdenum. The micro-etch solutions contain a proton
source, e.g., a mineral acid, an oxidizer agent, e.g., hydrogen peroxide, an azole compound, and a
molybdenum source. 
     These micro-etched surfaces can further be rendered acid-resistant by exposure to a
thiazole compound and/or a thiocarbamide compound. The thiazole compound and/or
thiocarbamide compound may be provided either in the oxidative micro-etching solution or
provided in a post-micro-etching solution.

Abstract: Decoders A and B decode MPEG-2 bitstreams A and B. A switch (S1)
switches from decoded stream A to decoded stream B to achieve a splice. The
resulting bitstream is re-encoded in an encoder 4. A new GOP is defined beginning at
the splice. The new GOP is defined by picture type decision rules which may have the
effect of changing the GOP compared to the GOPs of streams A and B. The new
GOP provides a prediction of the position in stream B where the occupancy value of
stream C should coincide with that of B. A target for the new number of bits in the
new GOP is calculated dependent on the difference between the occupancy value of
stream C at the splice and a prediction of the occupancy of stream B at the predicted
position. The occupancy value of stream C is controlled in accordance with the target
so that it tends towards the occupancy value of stream B at the predicted position.

IPC: G06F7/22

Abstract: In the search of the minimum value among a set of  p  Numbers
coded on  q  bits, each Number is split into  K  sub-values coded
on  n  bits ( q  >=  K  x  n ). Parameter  K  thus assigns a rank to
each sub-value so that  K  slices of bits are formed wherein
each slice is composed of sub-values of the same rank. Each
sub-value is then encoded on  m  bits ( m  >  n ) using a
"thermometric" coding technique. A parallel search is then
performed on the first slice of encoded sub-values (MSBs) to
determine the minimum sub-value of that slice. All the Numbers
associated to sub-values that are greater than the minimum
sub-value that has been evaluated are deselected. The
evaluation process is continued the same way until the last
slice (LSBs) has been processed. At the end of the evaluation
process, the Number which remains selected has the minimum
value. The response time (i.e. the number of processing steps)
now only depends upon the number  K  of sub-values in which the
Numbers have been split up. The method applies to search the
maximum as well.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an electronic injection device wherein an electronic circuit is designed to work in two alternative modes: an air shot mode and a dose injection mode. When working in the air shot mode a small predetermined air shot dose is pressed out from the ampoule when the injection button is actuated. When working in the injection mode, a dose set by operation of the dose setting means is injected by operation of the injection button. The electronic injection device is normally working in the air shot mode but shifts to work in the dose injection mode when it receives a signal indicating that the dose setting means has been operated. The circuit returns to its air shot mode when receiving a signal indicating that the set dose has been injected. This signal can originate either from a switch indicating that the protection cap is mounted or from a switch indicating that the injection button has been pressed.

Abstract: The input stage rectifies and converts the symmetrical input signal. The result is a non-symmetrical, processed signal proportional to the input. A voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) produces an oscillator signal (Osc) at frequency (f). A phase comparator produces a comparison signal by comparing the falling edge of the processed signal with the rising edge of the oscillator signal. A loop filter prepares a control voltage for the VCO from the filtered comparison signal, such that the frequency of the oscillator is adjusted to be in phase with the frequency of the input signal. A control stage ensures that the phase comparator is always inactivated when an interruption pulse occurs in the input signal

Abstract: A storage system (1) effectively manages the total capacity of hard disk drives (44) to store
block-basis data and file-basis data with a shared storage medium and a managing means
(30) for managing all the storage areas in the storage medium. When block data and address
are input through a fiber channel port (50), a block data input/output means (10a) converts
its data format to a data format that is internally applied by the storage system (1). When file
data and address are input through an Ethernet port (52), a file system (20) converts its data
format to the data format internally applied by the storage system (1), such as the block data
format. The file system (20) derives the address of a logical volume from the received
address information and translates file data to block data. The managing means (30) derives
the address of a logical volume (35a, 35b) to which to write block data from the address
information delivered from the block data input/output means (10a). The managing means
(30) translates this address or the address passed from the file system (20) to a physical
address and writes data to or read data from a hard disk drive (44) with the physical address.

Abstract: A method for producing a compressed digital image from an input
digital image is disclosed, wherein the compressed digital image is organized into
layers having information that can be extracted in accordance with different
desired viewing conditions and resolutions. The input digital image is
decomposed to produce a plurality of subbands, each subband having a plurality
of subband coefficients. The plurality of subband coefficients of each subband of
the decomposed input digital image are quantized to produce a quantized output
value for each subband coefficient of each subband. At least one bit-plane is
formed from the quantized output values of subband coefficients of each subband.
Each bit-plane of each subband in at least one pass is entropy encoded to produce
a compressed bit-stream corresponding to each pass, wherein each subband is
entropy encoded independently of the other subbands. A visual quality table is
provided that specifies a number of expected visual quality levels by providing
selectable viewing conditions and resolutions for each expected visual quality
level. A minimal set of passes and their corresponding compressed bit-streams
that are necessary to satisfy the expected visual quality levels provided in the
visual quality table are identified, whereby a user can select different desired
viewing conditions and resolutions for each compressed image. The compressed
bit-streams corresponding to passes are then ordered into layers from the lowest
expected visual quality level to the highest expected visual quality level specified
in the visual quality table to produce a compressed digital image, wherein each
layer includes the passes and their corresponding compressed bit-streams from the
identified minimal set corresponding to the expected visual quality level that have
not been included in any lower visual quality layers.
