Patent EP-0377990-A3 (EP)
Title: Data processing systems
IPC: G06F9/38
Filed: 1989-12-20
Abstract: A data processing system including a first processor that performs 
fixed point arithmetic operations and a second processor that performs 
floating point arithmetic operations. These two processors are 
connected by control circuitry that decodes a floating point arithmetic 
instruction that requires the second processor to perform a specified 
floating point arithmetic operation. The control circuitry provides 
information to the first processor to enable the first processor to 
compute a memory address for accessing the floating point data required 
by the second processor for performing the specified floating point 
arithmetic operation. Simultaneously the control circuitry provides 
the second processor with the information to initiate the execution of 
the specified floating point arithmetic operation. Also, the data 
processing system includes the means to access multi-word floating 
point data on either even or odd memory address boundaries.

Title: Process for fabricating porous solid bodies from mixtures containing binders, aggregates and admixtures
IPC: C04B24/30
Filed: 1989-03-15
Abstract: In the process, porous solid bodies are produced from a mixture of binders, preferably cement, aggregates and, if appropriate, auxiliaries and additives known per se by addition of water, forming and, if appropriate, compaction of the resulting mass and hardening thereof. To obtain good resistance of the solid bodies to frost and thawing salt, it is proposed to construct a pore system in the solid body by admixing a dry granulated product which is at least partially water-soluble and/or forms gel particles with water and consists of incompletely cured urea/formaldehyde resin.

Abstract: There is disclosed an improvement in a 
programming method in a semiconductor memory device for 
injecting electrons into a floating gate (3) and extracting 
them through a tunnel portion (3a). In acoordance with this 
programming method, a program voltage is applied across

which electrons are extracted, and a voltage having the 
same polarity as that of the program voltage and an 
absolute value which is small to such an extent that 
field inversion can be prevented is applied across the 
drain (1) and the control gate (4) of each memory cell from which 
no electron is extracted.

Patent EP-0389265-A3 (EP)
Title: Thickness gauge for moving sheet material
IPC: G01B5/00
Filed: 1990-03-21
Abstract: A caliper gauge for relatively thin moving sheet 
material (10) is provided by the use of an outer ring 
type air bearing (17a,17b), flexibly supported, which 
is flexibly connected again to an inner air bearing 
(23a,23b) carrying the magnetic measuring 
components. The outer air bearing (17a,17b) (with 
its juxtaposed mate) tends to flatten the sheet (10) 
so that minimum movement is required of the 
independently actuated inner air bearing (23a,23b). 
Thus, great accuracy is achieved and tearing or 
marking of the sheet material (10), such as super 
calendered or coated grades of paper, is avoided.

Title: Detection medium and method for use in hermetic seal testing
IPC: G01M3/12
Filed: 1993-04-16
Abstract: A detection medium and method for use in detecting 
gross and fine leaks in a hermetically sealed package. 
In a preferred embodiment, the detection medium 
includes a detectable perfluorinated gas dissolved in a 
detectable perfluorinated liquid. The package is 
placed in a bombing chamber and then exposed to the 
detection medium under pressure introduce the 
detectable liquid and dissolved, detectable gas into 
the package through any gross leak openings and to 
introduce the detectable gas and some detectable liquid 
vapor into the package through any fine leak openings. 
The package is then removed from the detection medium 
and air dried to evaporate any detection medium 
attached to an exterior surface of the package. The 
package is placed in a test chamber which collects 
detectable gas and vapor of the detectable liquid 
escaping through the gross and fine leak openings. A 
measurement instrument detects whether a component of 
the detection medium has escaped from the sealed 
package as an indication of a leak.

IPC: H04B7/185
Filed: 1995-09-27
Abstract: In a system and method which can complete a call to a specific Inmarsat
subscriber ship (e.g. 130), when a call arrives at a gateway switch (110), a test is
made to determine if the called ship is in the gateway's local database (116). If it is,
then a current region (101) code (871) is retrieved from the database and substituted
for the dialed code for call processing. A call is then placed (via CES 1) to the ship.
If the call can be completed, the call is processed normally. If the call cannot be
completed because the ship cannot be located in the selected region (101), then the
call is automatically retried (e.g. via CES 2) to each of the other regions (102), in a
predetermined order. The local database in the gateway switch will be updated
whenever a call is completed whether the call was originated or terminated at the
mobile terminal.

Filed: 1996-04-10
Abstract: A sample (5) is scanned with a focused electron beam
(7) so that secondary particles (8) characteristic of the
sample are generated therefrom and the generated particles
are detected by a detector (4) so as to be converted into an
electric signal. The electric signal is converted into
digital image data, which are stored in an image memory (13).
The stored image data are displayed on a display (15) along
with digital SEM operating picture data stored in a memory
(23) of a personal computer (16). An operating signal
generated by an input means (18,19) is conducted to not only
the personal computer but also an input control means(21,30),
which converts the operating signal into a control signal.
This control signal is used to change a parameter associated
with the image data, i. e., for example, to perform
focusing of the electron beam.

Abstract: In the sensor malfunction detecting system, if an
absolute value of a difference between acceleration
obtained from outputs of a pressure sensor and an
acceleration sensor read (in steps S1 and S5) is
determined to be out of a range of a prescribed value ΔG1
in said S7, a count value T1 is incremented by "1" (in
step S13). The above described operation is repeated
until the count value T1 exceeds a prescribed target value
Tα (in step S15). If the count value T1 exceeds a
prescribed target value Tα (in step S15), either of the
sensors is determined to be malfunctioning (in step S17),
and a sensor malfunction signal is output. Accordingly,
failure of a vehicle control system controlling breaking
force, for example, based on the output from the sensors
can be prevented, which leads to improved safety during
driving. Further, a sensor malfunction detecting system
can be provided at a low cost.

Abstract: A method for selecting one of a plurality of line identification (ID) databases for
validation of an operator-assisted call billed to a ported directory number account
comprises determining whether billing information received from a caller is directory
number-based. If the billing information is directory number-based, an operator
services system (OSS) queries a number portability database to retrieve available
routing information associated with billing information provided by the caller. The
routing information is used to access a billing acceptance database which stores a list

OSS is able to access an identified service provider's data, the routing information
received from the number portability database is used to route a billing validation
request to a selected one of the plurality of line ID databases.

Abstract: To provide a multiplex communication system (1) where
nodes (2, 4, 6, 8) can reliably shift to a sleep state even
though the system (1) has a very simple structure and even if
abnormal conditions occur in any node, multiple nodes (2, 4, 6,
8) communicate with each other through a communication network
(10), and when the individual nodes (2, 4, 6, 8) are in a state
of being unable to shift to a sleep state, they set a sleep
disable bit in signals (SLNG) to be transmitted and transmit
them. When they become able to shift to the sleep state, the
individual nodes (2, 4, 6, 8) confirm that they have not yet
received an active sleep disable bit sent from other nodes (2,
4, 6, 8) continuously over a predetermined period of time or
more. Thereafter, each individual node (2, 4, 6, 8) proceeds to
the sleep state. According to the system (1), the individual
nodes (2, 4, 6, 8) can proceed to the sleep state by simply
determining non-transmission of the sleep disable bit from other
nodes (2, 4, 6, 8) even in the presence of nodes (2, 4, 6, 8)
deactivated due to failures.
