IPC: G01N33/28
Filed: 2001-05-22
Abstract: In the pyrolytic oil-production index method, or POPI method, the numerical values
obtained by the application of the prior art POPI method are standardized or normalized. In
another aspect, the POPI method and associated data are employed in combination with
other empirically determined information to provide values of (1) the API gravity for the
reservoir oil; (2) the Apparent Water Saturation (AS W ) of the reservoir rock; and (3) the
cementation and saturation exponents that are used in the Archie equation for calculating the
water saturation in the oil-reservoir rock. This method results in the standardization of the
numerical values derived by the POPI method. Applying the normalization or
standardization process to the POPI method results in the conversion of the numerical value
of POPI O  for good oil-producing reservoir rock to a standard value.

Abstract: The present application provides a method for the separation
and determination of 5-hydroxycreatinine (5-HC), comprising
the step of subjecting a sample to high performance liquid
chromatography (HPLC) separation using a strongly acidic
cation-exchange resin and a separation solvent having a pH of
4.1-4.6. 
     By this method practically measurable 5-HC concentrations of
as low as 0.02 µM are achieved, and the method can be
performed in a short period of time using only one single
separation solvent. This allows for practical applications
which have been impossible with the conventional methods, and
renders the present method a useful tool in an improved test
for the detection of e.g. renal function disorders, such as
renal failure, diabetic nephropathy and nephritis, and also
as a marker for systemic oxidative stress.

Abstract: A processor, such as a VLIW processor capable of
software-pipeline execution, includes an instruction
issuing unit 10 for issuing, in a predetermined
sequence, instructions to be executed. The sequence of
instructions includes preselected value-producing
instructions which, when executed, produce respective
values. Instruction executing units 14, 16, 18 execute
the issued instructions. A register file 20 has a set
of registers, for storing values produced by the
executed instructions. In operation the processor
assigns the values produced by the value-producing
instructions respective sequence numbers according to
the order of issuance of their respective value-producing
instructions. Each produced value is
allocated one of the registers, for storing that
produced value, in dependence upon the sequence number
assigned to that value. The registers may be renamed
each time a value-producing instruction is issued. 
     For such a processor the task of the compiler in
register allocation is simplified, and the instruction
set can be more compact.

Abstract: This invention relates to a screen (16) for reflecting a
projected image, in particular to an active screen
(16) for reflecting a projected image having improved
contrast. The screen (16) has an active layer (24) whose
optical properties in the visible region of the spectrum
can be changed under the influence of an electric field; a
first electrode (28) and a second electrode (26) for
applying an electric field across the active layer (24),;
and a photosensitive layer (30). The photosensitive layer
is arranged such that the electric field across a
localised area of the active layer (24) is dependent on
the illumination incident on the photoconductor in that
area, with the result that the local reflectance of the
projection screen (16) is dependent on the intensity of
light incident upon it. In one embodiment, the reflectance
of the screen (16) will increase with increasing light
intensity, which produces a reflected image with
improved contrast.

Abstract: Cette invention concerne un procédé de polissage-planarisation chimico-mécanique (CMP) en deux temps permettant de réduire la formation, en cours de fabrication, de creux dans les lignes de métal des tranchées dans la couche isolante (oxyde) de chacune de plusieurs tranches de semi-conducteur. Pour chaque tranche, on procède d'abord à un polissage-planarisation chimico-mécanique d'une couche de métal disposée sur la couche d'oxyde, dont la partie inférieure se trouve dans les tranchées pour la formation de lignes de métal et qui est recouverte par une partie supérieure. Ce premier polissage, qui fait intervenir un premier tampon à polir servant à éliminer le gros de la partie supérieure de la couche métallique, avec production concomitante de résidus de CMP, laisse une couche résiduelle réduite de la partie supérieure de la couche métallique sans créer des creux dans la partie inférieure de cette couche métallique dans les tranchées. Le travail de polissage-planarisation se poursuit avec un second tampon à polir et consiste à faire disparaître la partie restante de la partie supérieure de la couche métallique pour un minimum de creux dans la partie inférieure de ladite couche métallique de manière à bien faire ressortir les diverses lignes métalliques dans les tranchées. Chaque tranche est soumise à une première étape de polissage-planarisation au moyen du premier patin à polir, suivie d'une seconde étape de polissage-planarisation avec le second patin à polir. Le second patin à polir ne renferme au pire qu'une teneur insuffisante de résidus CMP accumulés antérieurement et est donc relativement propre.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un circuit d'adaptation de l'impédance d'un filtre à résonateur à bande étroite présentée à une borne selon une large plage de fréquences qui utilise un second résonateur présentant sensiblement les mêmes caractéristiques de transfert que le filtre à résonateur. Le filtre à résonateur est isolé de la borne de sortie par un résonateur à caractéristique double qui agit comme un court-circuit dans la bande passante du filtre à résonateur, et comme un circuit ouvert dans la bande éliminée du filtre à résonateur. Le second résonateur est isolé de la borne par une résistance dont la valeur se situe dans la plage d'impédance idéale ou souhaitée devant arriver à la borne. Le circuit fournit à la borne une impédance presque égale à l'impédance souhaitée dans la bande éliminée, et une impédance légèrement dégradée dans la bande passante, particulièrement sur la même fréquence que celle du filtre à résonateur. Ce circuit est particulièrement utile lorsque les filtres à résonateurs à bande passante étroite sont utilisés dans des systèmes à voies multiples et à bande large couplés aux ports d'entrée d'une charge sensible à l'impédance, notamment des mélangeurs passifs utilisés dans la conversion de fréquences dans une grande plage de fréquences.

IPC: G08G5/00
Filed: 2001-07-24
Abstract: A second-order filter that blends accurate position information from a one source, and velocity information from another source, both suitably scaled, in a second-order complementary filter. The filter is arranged such that an internal integrator maintains a value that represents the difference in the rate of change of the accurate position information, and the velocity input of the other source. This velocity difference is applied to another integrator outside the filter, whose initial condition is the position error between the two sources to the second order filter. The output of this latter integrator is a correction signal that grows at a rate equal and opposite to the rate of error build-up of position data from the source whose velocity is used in the second order filter. This correction signal is summed with the original position signal. In addition, the output of the second order filter may be used as a highly accurate position signal.
