Abstract: An assisted respiration apparatus comprises a controller (23) for a flow generator for supplying breathable gas to a gas delivery system providing the breathable gas to a patient's airways, and a flow sensor in communication with said gas delivery system, the controller comprising: 
signal processing means for receiving an input gas delivery flow signal (36) and for discriminating transitions between patient inspiration and expiration based on said flow signal; 
first timer means (58) for measuring a first time duration commencing from the last transition to inspiration by the patient; 
logic means (60) for outputting one or more control signals to the flow generator to designate an inspiration pressure or an expiration pressure produced by said flow generator, wherein the flow generator is caused to cyclically output a predetermined inspiration pressure and a predetermined expiration pressure substantially in synchronism with a patient's respiration; 
   characterized in that if said first time duration becomes greater than a variable maximum IPAP time-out before the signal processing means detects a transition to expiration by the patient, the logic means (60) is operable to output a signal (EPAP) that causes the flow generator to supply said expiration pressure; and 
    further characterized in that said variable maximum IPAP time-out is automatically incremented or decremented by said logic unit during one or more subsequent respiration cycles of the patient so as to be come closer in duration to an inspiratory time of said patient, whereby a synchronism with the patient's respiration is achieved.

Abstract: Provided are a method and apparatus for processing a digital motion picture. The method includes: when the digital motion picture is coded, dividing a motion compensation error image, which is the result of removing temporal redundancy of the digital motion picture, into horizontal or vertical blocks, predicting a motion compensation error of a current block using a previous block neighboring by a unit pixel distance to the current block, and performing an orthogonal transform on a predicted error image consisting of the predicted motion compensation errors; and when the coded digital motion picture is decoded, recovering the predicted error image by performing an inverse orthogonal transform and recovering the motion compensation error image from the recovered predicted error image. Here, the current block means a block to be currently processed, and the previous block means a block previously processed.

Abstract: An improved process for producing ceramic thick film array elements is provided. In this regard, ceramic elements are formed on a temporary, or printing, substrate by screen printing or other forming methods. The temporary, or printing, substrate is advantageously provided with a release layer. This makes it possible to release the printed and soft-baked ceramic elements from the temporary substrate and transfer the ceramic elements to the sintering substrate. The contemplated release technique takes advantage of the phase transition of a liquid, e.g. water, to transfer the elements to a sintering substrate. After sintering and electrode deposition, the ceramic element array is bonded to a target substrate. Then, the sintering substrate is removed to make the array available for implementation in a variety of suitable environments.
