Abstract: To change an operating program (BP) and associated data (KD) in a control unit (S) which contains a computer system having a processor (P) with a program memory (SP1) and with a data memory (SP2), the data (KD) stored in the data memory (SP2) are first saved to avoid destruction during the change. After the previous program (BP1) has been replaced by a new operating program (BP2), a check is made whether the structures of the data (KD) have changed. If this is so, the new data (KD2) are generated by copying the previous data (KD1) in the data memory (SP2) and possibly by supplementing them with initial values. When the method and the arrangement are used in a communications system (K), this is immediately operational again after a program change. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A high frequency ceramic multi-layer substrate includes a stripline (1) embedded between two dielectric layers (2,2') having ground electrodes (3,4) at the top surface and at the bottom surface thereof and an electric circuit formed on another dielectric layer (5) applied to one of the ground electrodes. The stripline is connected to the electric circuit through via holes (6,6') provided through the dielectric layers. The equivalent length from the stripline to the electric circuit is a fourth of the wavelength of an input high frequency signal, to result in high frequency attenuation circuit. Another high frequency ceramic multi-layer substrate includes further another electrode provided via another dielectric layer of larger dielectric constant to form a capacitor with one of the ground electrodes, and a further dielectric layer for forming an electric circuit thereon is applied to the electrode. The stripline is connected to the electric circuit through via holes provided through dielectric layers. The electric circuit may be an impedance matching circuit of the stripline or a direct current bias circuit (8). This multi-layer structure makes the high frequency substrate compact and improves high frequency characteristics.

Abstract: A semiconductor device includes a lamination structure comprising a GaAs layer and an InGaAs layer (32b) grown on the GaAs layer, through which operating current flows in the thickness direction of the InGaAs layer. The InGaAs layer (32b) includes a plurality of very thin GaAs layers (1), through which most of the operating current passes due to tunnel effect, inserted into the InGaAs layer (23b) at prescribed intervals larger than a critical thickness that maintains a pseudomorphic state of an InGaAs crystal grown on a GaAs crystal. Therefore, segregation of In atoms, i.e., unfavorable move of In atoms in the growing InGaAs crystal toward the surface, which occurs remarkably when the InGaAs layer is grown at a high temperature, or elimination of In atoms can be suppressed by the very thin GaAs layers, so that the InGaAs layer can be grown on the GaAs layer at a high temperature without degrading the surface mohology of the InGaAs layer. As the result, an InGaAs layer with improved surface mohology, reduced contact resistivity and sheet resistivity, and improved uniformities of these resistivities in a wafer can be grown on the GaAs layer.

Abstract: A polymer dispersed liquid crystal display device includes an active element substrate (11) on which active elements (14) and pixel electrodes (13) are arranged in the form of a matrix, a counter substrate (12) having a counter electrode (20) formed on a surface, of the counter substrate (12), opposing the active element substrate (11), and a polymer dispersed liquid crystal film (30) arranged between the active element substrate (11) and the counter substrate (12) and formed by dispersing a polymer resin (31) and a cholesteric liquid crystal (32). The cholesteric liquid crystal (32) is in a randomly aligned state to be twisted at a specific helical pitch in the absence of an electric field. When an electric field is applied across the pixel electrodes (13) and the counter electrode (20), the cholesteric liquid crystal (32) is aligned along the electric field, and the polymer dispersed liquid crystal film (30) is set in a light-transmitting state, thereby setting a display in a bright state. When the application of the electric field is stopped, the cholesteric liquid crystal (32) is restored, within a short time, to a randomly twisted/aligned state by the restoring force of the cholesteric liquid crystal (32), and the polymer dispersed liquid crystal film (30) is set in a light-scattering state, thereby setting a display in a dark state. When a dichroic dye is added to the cholesteric liquid crystal (32), the dark display becomes dark, thereby increasing the contrast of an image.

Abstract: Paths are planned for one or more actors, through at least two dimensions of time or space, to identify rendezvous locations meeting a global criterion. At least two scenarios are defined, including at least one for each actor, and a configuration space is created for each of these scenarios. A scenario includes identification of the actor, a source direction for planning, a set of states identifying the source or obstacle locations, and the respective cost metrics for each possible transition between a configuration state in the corresponding configuration space, and its neighbors. Cost waves are propagated in each configuration space, to generate a cost-to-source for each state. A Boolean evaluation is then made of configuration states, according to a global criterion, to identify all possible rendezvous states. Finally, the actors are controlled to travel to that rendezvous chosen according to optimization criteria, or the candidate rendezvous states are displayed for further evaluation or use.

Abstract: A document marker (27) including first values dependent upon the layout and the contents of the document and assigned by generating or preprocessing software (21) is provided in machine-readable symbology on the face of a printed version (24) of the document. The marker (27) may include encoded document layout information and values assigned on sequences of the original text, including text-dependent decimation sequences, error correction codes or check-sums. Upon optical character recognition scanning (16), or other digitizing reproduction, the marker (27) is also scanned. The scanning computer (28), having corresponding software (29,26), assigns second values dependent upon the layout and contents of the reproduced document. Upon comparison of the first and second decimation sequences, line and character errors can be detected and some errors corrected, thereby generating re-aligned candidate sequences. Optional error correction codes can provide further correcting capabilities, as applied to the re-aligned reproduced document sequences, and an optional check-sum comparison can be utilized to verify that the accuracy of the reproduced sequences is correct.
