Abstract: The present invention provides a method and apparatus for establishing point-to-point full duplex communication between two stations served by a local area network (LAN) or connected by a communication link. One station initially transmits a request message through the link. The request message indicates that a first station is available for full duplex communication and also serves as a test to determine whether any non-full duplex devices are present along the point-to-point link between the first station and a second station. A second station receives the request message and responds by transmitting a reply message which indicates its availability for full duplex communication. Subsequently, full duplex communication may commence. The two stations periodically exchange additional messages to continuously verify that full duplex communication is operating properly.

Abstract: In a frame synchronization circuit, a serial data signal, which includes a frame synchronization code constituted by an M number of bits in one frame, is converted by a serial/parallel converting circuit (10) to a parallel data signal of a 2M-1 number of bits. An M number of pattern detectors (#1 to #M) of a first synchronization detecting circuit (20) detect the code pattern of the first block of the frame synchronization code from the parallel data signal. A selection signal generating circuit (30) holds outputs of the pattern detectors (#1 to #M), and outputs them as a selection signal designating the bit position allotted to the pattern detector which detects the synchronization code pattern. An output of the serial/parallel converting circuit (10) is delayed by a time required for the above-mentioned processing, and supplied to a selector (40), which selectively outputs an M-bit data signal corresponding to the bit position designated by the selection signal.

Abstract: A document scanner (10) is disclosed wherein means are provided to dynamically compensate for any changes in document illumination intensity that may occur as a document (11) is scanned. The compensation method and apparatus operates to measure (74) the intensity of light that is reflected from a target area (46) that borders an edge of the document being scanned. The target area is a narrow, elongated, area that extends in the scan direction. The target area is of a color to approximate the document's background area, i.e. the document's nonimage area. Since the target area is of a continuous and uniform color tone, any variation (75) in the quantity of light that is reflected from the target area is caused by a variation in the intensity of illumination thereof by the scanning light source. The method and apparatus of the invention controls (79) the scanning light source (16) so as to maintain the light reflected from the target area at a substantially constant magnitude.

Abstract: A method for automatically placing objects on a surface in proximity to corresponding predetermined locations without collision with such locations or other objects by defining a distance dependent attractive force between each object and the corresponding location which increases with increasing distance between the object and the location, and defining distance dependent repulsive force between each object and its neighboring objects and locations, such repulsive force decreasing with increasing distance. The initial position for each object is established in proximity with the corresponding location in accordance with predetermined criteria. Thereafter the motion of the objects under the influence of such forces and of a frictional retarding force are determined by marginally stable incremental integration of such motion. The objects are statically placed at a predetermined target distance from the corresponding location at the position around the location at which the sum of the absolute values of the magnitudes of the forces acting on the object is at a minimum.

Abstract: An oxygen scavenger (1) comprises an oxygen absorbent composition (7) and an oxygen permeable film (9) covering the oxygen absorbent composition (7) and including an asymmetric porous membrane (3) whose outer surface portion in the thickness direction of the asymmetric porous membrane (3) is formed as a dense skin layer (4). Since the dense skin layer (4) is very thin, the oxygen permeability to the oxygen absorbent composition (7) through the oxygen permeable film (9 ) can be maintained sufficiently high. At the same time, since the dense skin layer (4) has a sufficiently high barrier property as well as a high oxygen permeability, then where a container is provided with the oxygen scavenger, contact of a substance stored in the container with the oxygen absorbent composition (7) can be prevented with certainty. The substances stored in the container provided wtih the oxygen scavenger (1) can be prevented from deterioration due to the oxygen present in the container by a high oxygen absorption ability of the scavenger (1), and maintained in a good or fresh condition for a long time.

The synchronization control circuit includes a plurality of time base counter circuits each counting down standard clock pulses to generate a plurality of timing pulse sequences having time bases which are respectively associated with the cells of the system. All the time base counter circuits share a single counter controller which controls the writing and reading of counts out of the time base counter circuits. The counter controller selectively produces the outputs of one of the time base counter circuits as a timing pulse sequence. The synchronization control circuit, therefore, is small size and light weight and saves power.

Abstract: A multiprocessor computer system having a first processor having a first interrupt mechanism for generating interrupt requests, a second processor having a second interrupt mechanism, and a system bus for communicating interrupt requests from the first processor to the second processor. The second interrupt mechanism is responsive to an interrupt request by generating an acknowledge response on the system bus when the second processor accepts the interrupt request and generating a not acknowledge response on the system bus when the second processor contains a previous and pending interrupt request of higher level and refuses the interrupt request. The second interrupt mechanism is responsive to the completion of servicing of an interrupt request by the second processor by placing on the system bus an interrupt completed command, which includes an address identifying the second processor and a code indicating that the second processor has completing servicing an interrupt request. The first processor includes an interrupt retry means, which includes a refused interrupt register means responsive to a not acknowledge response from the second processor in response to an interrupt requested from the first processor for storing the channel number of the second processor, and level monitor logic connected from the system bus. The level monitor logic detects the occurrence of an interrupt completed command on the system bus, compares the address in the interrupt completed command to a second processor identification stored in the refused interrupt register means, and generates a retry interrupt output to the first processor when the address in the interrupt completed command corresponds to a second processor identification stored in the refused interrupt register means. The first processor is responsive to an interrupt retry output from the level monitor means by retrying the corresponding previously refused interrupt request.
