Abstract: A superconducting circuit board is provided comprising a sintered alumina board containing more than 99% by weight of alumina and an interconnection pattern of an superconducting ceramics formed on the alumina board. Adhesion of the interconnection pattern to the alumina board is improved by an addition of Ti or Si coupling agent to a paste for forming the intercon­nection pattern. The use of copper powder in place of copper oxide powder as an ingredient forming a supercon­ducting ceramics in the paste is advantageous for printing and obtaining a uniform superconducting ceramic pattern.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for determining the bioactivity of liquid biological mixtures. The method of the present invention involves obtaining a suitable quantity of liquid biological mixture. Once the sample is obtained, visual spectrum light is directed into the liquid biological mixture and reflectance of the light from the mixture is detected and quantified. 
     The apparatus of the present invention incorporates a microcolorimeter with high energy source as a reflectance detector. The microcolorimeter is able to measure energy in a smaller area, such as 3 to 8 millimeters in diameter, and provide estimates of bioactivity in less than 30 minutes to 32 hours, as opposed to the 24 hour to 9 days which is typical of traditional microbiological methods. 
     The method of the present invention could involve continuous measurements by recycling plates past the detector at regular intervals until the end point is detected. Thus, the detector could be fitted with an appropriate incubator environment which would have controlled robotic devices to receive, identify, and position plates for storage, reading and for discard. Data is collected and compared by computer. The computer calculates the desired information on bioactivity. 
     By providing a detector that produces "tristimulus" color values it is possible to use traditional dyes used in   microbiological research and testing. Even abandoned dyes could be restored to useful measurement including litmus, methylene blue, and resazurin.

Abstract: An optical fiber sensor system comprising an optical source (2), such as a laser diode, which emits a pulse of optical energy which is transmitted in an optical path through an optical energy modulator (22). A partial reflector (20), included in the optical path before the optical modulator, reflects a portion of the optical energy of the pulse. The optical path terminates in an optical reflector (24) where the pulse is reflected back through the optical modulator (22) to the partial reflector (20). The optical energy reflected by the partial reflector (20) and the terminating reflector (24) travels along the same optical path from the partial reflector (20) to a photodetector (10) and demodulator (12) where the magnitude of the parameter modulating the light modulator is determined from the relative magnitude of the energy reflected from the partial reflector (20) and the terminating reflector (24).

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for exchanging frames between bridges distribute load sharing in a communications network. The communications network is of the kind in which bridges, and related stations and local LANs, e.g. Ethernet LANs and 802 LANs, can be linked by paths in a plurality of sub-networks and wherein the bridges are linked to support a Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) which elects one bridge as a root and then with respect to said root, computes and utilizes one and only one loop-free set of primary paths between all bridges. Remaining paths, i.e. paths other than said STP primary paths, between the bridges are examined as possible sub-network paths for a Distributed Load Sharing (DLS) configuration in which frames exchanged between certain stations can utilize more than the STP one set of primary paths. Certain ones of the remaining paths are selected as DLS paths under certain conditions and frames are routed over a selected DLS path only when those frames meet certain criteria.

Abstract: For a pulse Doppler radar in which periodically obtained samples from a multiplicity (M) of identical radar periods are subjected to Doppler signal processing within a coherent signal processing interval (CPI) for target detection and for the unambiguous determination of the target speed, each radar period is divided into a plurality (N) of equally long part-intervals. In each part-interval, a transmitting pulse is radiated and in the period between the transmitting pulses of two successive part-intervals, a sample of the received signal is in each case obtained. The periodic transmitted pulse sequence is binary phase-coded in accordance with a cyclically repeated code word of the length of one radar period from pulse to pulse. The sequence of samples is conducted through a pulse compression filter and the N filter output values produced during one radar period are allocated to N range bins from radar period to radar period. The M filter output values of a CPI are supplied to conventional Doppler processing separately for each range bin. Due to the resultant small range resolution cell, the S/C ratio per range cell is considerably increased compared with an HPRF of the same radar period duration so that a much higher target detection probability is given even for targets which move away from the radar (tail aspect). By staggering the radar period lengths from CPI to CPI, the target range can be unambiguously determined from the range values which are ambiguous in each case. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A method and apparatus which filter the number of invalidates to be propagated onto a private processor bus are provided. This is desirable so that the processor bus is not overloaded with invalidate requests. The present invention describes a method of filtering the number of invalidates to be propagated to each processor. A memory interface filters the invalidates by using a second private bus, the invalidate bus (46), which communicates with the cache controller. The cache controller can tell the memory interface whether data corresponding to the address on the invalidate bus (46) is resident in the private cache memory of that processor. In this way, the memory interface only has to request the private processor bus when necessary, in order to perform the invalidate.

Abstract: There is disclosed a method and apparatus for data coding for image transmission or storage in which vector quantization enables good image quality at reduced transmission or storage bit rates by directly employing spatial contiguity with a prior block of data, or a one-row-prior block of data in a way that directly controls intensity continuity between spatially close pixels of the adjacent blocks in two directions. The technique includes both "side-match" (no overlap) and "overlap-match" vector quantization. The technique is relative demanding of memory space and logic capacity in the encoding of the image information; but the decoding can be relatively simple and thus is well adapted for archiving and subsequent retrieval of two-dimensional information.
