Abstract: A block diagram editor system and method is implemented in a computer workstation that includes a CRT and a mouse, graphics and windowing software, and an external communications interface for test instruments. The computer is programmed for constructing, interconnecting and displaying block diagrams of functional elements on the CRT. From prestored routines for each functional element, the softwave assembles and executes a program that emulates the functional operations of each element and transfers data from output from each element in turn to an input of a succeeding block, as determined by the block diagram configuration. The block functions include signal generating and analysis functions, and functions for control of various types of test instruments, which can be interactively controlled through the CRT and mouse. The computer converts desired outputs of the instruments into control settings and receives, analyzes and displays data from the instruments. Blocks can also be grouped into macroblocks.

Abstract: The concurrent sorting apparatus and method pertains to a pipelined and concurrent sorting engine that can operate with single or double-ported host memory and, specifically, sort data with serial input and output. The apparatus is composed of stages that can vary in count to provide faster sort convergence or lower complexity. Each stage includes a first comparator and a storage means. The first comparator of each stage is responsive to the value of an input element for storing that element in the storage means if, for example, the input element value is equal to or greater than the value of the last stored element in that stage and for passing on to the next stage if the incoming element value is less than the value of the last stored element. The output from the storage means of the stages are compared for passing down from stage to stage to the output the element having for the example the lesser value.

Abstract: An optical molding method comprising the steps of: 
forming a cured object on or beneath a base which is movably provided in a container by radiating light onto a photocurable resin accommodated in the container; and laminating cured layers in series by repeating the process of moving the base at a predetermined pitch, coating the cured object with a photocurable resin and radiating light. When the base is moved at a predetermined pitch, the base is first moved by a distance p + ℓ, which is larger than a predetermined pitch p, and then the base is brought back by the excess distance ℓ, thereby moving the base at the predetermined pitch p. 
     An optical molding method uses an optical molding apparatus including a container provided with an aperture on a side surface or the bottom surface thereof, a base movable close to and away from the surface of the aperture on the inner wall side of the container, and a light radiation device for radiating light into the container through the aperture. A target object is produced by laminating cured layers each of which corresponds to a section of the target object by repeating the process of radiating light through the aperture and gradually moving the base away from the aperture. The base is brought into close contact with or close to the aperture so as to remove   the bubbles between the surface of the base and the aperture, and the base is then moved away from the aperture before light radiation and the movement of the base. 
     An optical molding method characterized in that when one layer is formed, the base is moved away from the aperture so as to separate the cured object from the aperture and the base is then moved in the direction of the aperture so as to be brought into close contact with the aperture after the formation of a part of the layer and before the formation of another part of the layer. 
     An optical molding method characterized in that when the base is lifted, the aperture is inclined so as not to be parallel to the base, thereby separating the cured layer from the aperture from one end side of the cured layer.
