Abstract: An apparatus for determining the fundamental viscoelastic properties of a viscoelastic material includes means for imparting a torsional stress in a viscoelastic material; means for measuring the relaxation of the torsional stress over time and converting the relaxation stress to a representative waveform; and processing means for determining the frequency dependant fundamental viscoelastic properties of the material based on the shape of a portion of the waveform. Preferably, the processing means includes a first dedicated processor for producing a digital representation of the waveform and a second general processor, such as an IBM compatible microcomputer for determining the fundamental viscoelastic properties from a portion of the digital representation. To facilitate automating the determination of the fundamental viscoelastic properties of the test material, the first processor examines the waveform and aborts the determination if the digital waveform is atypical of an expected waveform for a viscoelastic material subjected to a torsional stress. A method of determining the fundamental viscoelastic properties of a viscoelastic material includes the steps of imparting a torsional stress in a viscoelastic material; measuring the relaxation of the torsional stress over time and converting the relaxation stress to a representative analog waveform; digitizing the representative analog waveform to produce a representative digital waveform; and, determining the frequency dependant fundamental viscoelastic properties of the material based on the shape of a portion of the representative digital waveform. To facilitate automating the method, the shape of the waveform may be analyzed to detect the start of a test, the end of the test, and whether the test is a valid test. Preferably, the fundamental viscoelastic properties of the test material are determined by converting the torque based amplitudes of the waveform to shear relaxation modulus values, such as by multiplying the torque amplitudes by the geometric form factor of the test material, and then by transforming the shear stress modulus values to frequency dependant fundamental viscoelastic properties through the known Yagii/Maekawa approximation.

Abstract: Plural requests for storage accessing are processed in plural stages of a storage-request pipeline. Pipeline processing is not interrupted when one or more requests must wait for a resource to start its processing, or when a pipeline stage must process for a long period in relation to the time allocated for a processing operation in the pipeline. Waiting is done in a wait path connected to a particular processing stage in the pipeline. A request is shunted from the pipeline into a wait path when processing the request in the pipeline would delay pipeline processing. When the wait has ended, a request re-enters the pipeline from its wait path. The pipeline is provided in a multiprocessor (MP) in which storage requests are provided asynchronously to a tightly coupled system storage and usually may be handled and processed asynchronously by the pipeline. The pipeline output may direct the processed requests to a shared intermediate cache or to the system main storage.

Abstract: The invention relates to a data transmission device, particularly for an x-ray device, having several components which are in each case associated with a data transmission node, the data inputs and outputs of which are coupled to light receivers and, respectively to light transmitters which are connected together to form a ring via optical fibres. In this arrangement, a multiple passage of a light pulse through the ring is prevented by the fact that each node contains means for interrupting the transmission path between its light receiver and its light transmitter and a timing section, controlling the means, which, in transmitting mode of the associated data transmission node, activates these means during a period of time which is greater than the time of circulation of a light pulse in the ring and which begins at the end of a light pulse. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Bus arrangements are disclosed for interconnecting processors (P1-P8) and main memory modules (M1-M9) of a shared memory multiprocessor system. A single address bus (120) interconnects all processors and memory modules, but odd and even memory modules communicate data to and from the processors via an odd (131) and an even (133) data bus. Each memory reading occupies four bus cycles on one of the data buses. On the address bus, two of each four cycles are available for addressing odd and even memory modules, and the other two are available for sending invalidation addresses among the caches (147) of the processors. The single address bus is used for transmitting a relatively narrow (32-bit) address word throughout the system, one address on each bus cycle, while the data buses are time shared to transmit a wide data word (256-bit) in four bus cycles, and each data bus is only connected to half the main memory modules. Such an arrangement makes excellent use of limited bus resources to transmit information where needed and when needed.

Abstract: A method is disclosed for generating a set of defective images from a model image. Defect parameters used with the apparatus and methods specify classes of defects including resolution (103) blur (105), threshold (107), speckle (109), jitter (111), skew (113), distortion of width (201) and height (203), offset from a baseline 205), and kerning (207). The parameters further permit specification of a range of sizes of the defects and a distribution of the defects within the range. Within the apparatus, actual values for the defects are generated randomly within the specified ranges and distributions. The model image may be represented by means of pixels or by a format which describes the model image's shape. The user may specify the number and the size of the defective images. The defective images are useful for inferring accurate and efficient image classifiers for use in image recognition devices such as optical character readers.

Abstract: A programmable gate array with an improved interconnect structure facilitates multi-source networks, communication of signals long distances across the array, and creation of networks in a symmetrical interconnect structure. The interconnect includes direct connections for each configurable logic block in the array to eight neighbors, including adjacent configurable logic blocks and next adjacent configurable logic blocks. Also, the interconnect includes uncommitted long lines which are driven by outputs of configurable logic blocks but not committed through the interconnect to inputs of any specific logic block. Rather, the uncommitted long lines are committed to connections to other segments of the interconnect. The interconnect structure also includes staggered switching matrices at the intersections of the horizontal and vertical buses in the interconnect. Repowering buffers that are configurable in both directions are associated with bidirectional lines in the interconnect, and include a bypass path. The interconnect provides for communication of control signals from off the chip, from any configurable logic block in the array, and from the input/output structures in the array to any or all other configurable logic blocks and input/output blocks in the array. Further, the interconnect structure has programmable interconnection between long lines and bidirectional general interconnect segments

Abstract: A method of analyzing granule grinding degrees includes steps of: passing granules between a coherent light emitter and a light receiver directly receiving a coherent light emitted from the coherent light emitter; measuring the time of each of the granules intercepting the coherent light and the frequency of such interception; and analyzing the measured granules by arithmetically processing the intercepted time, frequencies and predetermined coefficients. An apparatus for carrying out such method includes a passage (4) for granules to pass through and to intercept the coherent light between the coherent light emitter (1) and the light receiver (3), a counter (5) for counting from the outputs of light receiver (3) the interception time of the granules passing at the passage, a memory (7) for storing the outputs of the counter, frequencies of each of such output values and predetermined coefficients, and an arithmetic operator (6) for conducting calculation based on the information stored in the memory. This apparatus for analyzing granule grinding degrees can be advantageously incorporated in a granule grinder for its roll space adjustment.

Abstract: The optical data recording media is provided on a substrate (1) with a recording layer (3) changing its optical characteristic dependent upon difference in the heat history, or processes of temperature elevation due to laser beam irradiation and the following cooling. The media is composed of layered structure not only varying its own reflectance or transmittance as an integrated media, but also changing the optical phase of the reflected light or transmitted light, when the optical characteristic of the recording layer is changed. In the method of recording, erasing and reproducing data using this optical data recording media, when the variations of the reflectance is to be detected, recording and erasing are effected after temporarily setting the recording layer (3) in a state having a higher reflectance. On the other hand, when the variations of the transmittance is to be detected, recording and erasing are effected after temporarily setting the recording layer (3) in a state having a higher transmittance. The substrate has such guide grooves that the width of either the convex portion between the guide grooves or the concave portion of the guide grooves is smaller than the diameter of the laser beam spot for reproduction.

Abstract: In prior-art telecommunication systems a two-wire line carrying digital duplex traffic is tapped by inserting, at a line interruption, two mutually coupled hybrid circuits which convert the two-wire line to a four-wire connection, a traffic stream in one direction being conveyed by two of the four wires and a traffic stream in the other direction being conveyed by the further two of the four wires. A disadvantage for this is that the line is to be interrupted. In the telecommunication system according to the invention the tapping is performed by way of discrimination means and echo cancelling means coupled thereto. The invention is based on the recognition that the traffic stream having the larger amplitude can be discriminated from the digital duplex traffic by way of the discrimination means and that, subsequently, the other traffic stream can be discriminated from the digital duplex traffic by way of the echo cancelling means which echo cancelling means are supplied with both the digital duplex traffic coming from the line and the traffic stream that has the larger amplitude coming from the discrimination means.

Abstract: A brush assembly for providing contact between a grounding brush and a rotating shaft, in which the non-contact time associated with brush bounce is reduced. A brush is provided which is fixed to a pivotable arm, with a bias force applied to the arm, such that when the brush is bounced from a shaft as a result of vibration or shaft wobbling, the bias force will reestablish contact between the brush and shaft. Rolling contact between a negator spring and the arm is also provided for reducing friction associated with contact between the spring and pivotable arm. Due to the reduced friction provided by the rolling contact, and more significantly by the pivotal mounting of the arm to which the brush is fixed, the response of the assembly in reestablishing contact with the shaft is greatly improved.
