Abstract: Water-soluble organic silicon compounds are prepared by effecting co-hydrolysis of (A) 1-30 parts of an alkyltrialkoxysilane of R 1 si(oR 2 ) 3  or a partial hydrolyzate thereof, (B) 70-90 parts of an alkoxy-containing siloxane of R 3   a (OR 2 ) b SiO (4-a-b)/2 , and (C) 1-20 parts of an amino-containing alkoxysilane of R 4 R 5 NR 6 -SiR 7   n (OR 2 ) 3-n  or a partial hydrolyzate thereof in the presence of an organic or inorganic acid. R 1  is a C 7 -C 18  alkyl group, R 2  is a C 1 -C 4  alkyl group, R 3  is a C 1 -C 6  alkyl group, R 4  and R 5  are a hydrogen atom, C 1 -C 15  alkyl or aminoalkyl group, R 6  is a divalent C 1 -C 18  hydrocarbon group, and R 7  is a C 1 -C 4  alkyl group. Letters a and b are 0.75 ≦ a ≦ 1.5, 0.2 ≦ b ≦ 2, and 0.95 < a + b < 3.4. These water-soluble organic silicon compounds are fully water soluble and shelf stable and can be used as an agent for preventing porous materials from water absorption simply after dilution with water. Porous materials are coated or impregnated with the compounds so that they are given excellent water repellency and water absorption-preventing effect.

Abstract: There is described a method of and apparatus for embedding data into an electronic document by modulating the spaces between words. In the method of coding an electronic text document (1), the length of a space (pi) preceding a word (2i) in a line of text data forming part of an electronic document (1) relative to the length of a space (si) following the word (2i) is modulated with the value of a bit of signature data (31). The signature data (31) is thus embedded into the text data (33) of the electronic document (1), and is thus not easily discernible by unauthorised readers.

Abstract: The image capture device incorporates an array
of photodetectors (100), utilizing an integral current mirror
formed at each photodetector location to increase
photodetector current output. A correlated double
sampling circuit is also formed at each photodetector
location to sum the current generated by the current
mirror over each exposure period, so as to produce a
voltage proportional to the radiation intensity incident
at each photodetector location. The correlated double
sampling circuit is used to reduce noise in the
photodetected signal and to eliminate the effect of dark
current. Combining the image capture device with a
unique lenslet array (210) forms an extremely compact optical
array camera. An embodiment with a mechanical shutter is

Abstract: The present invention relates to Glutathione S-transferase (GST)/Reduced Glutathione (GSH) as a means for the in-vivo release of a drug that has been conjugated to specific electrophilic moieties via a sulfonamide bond. The drug may be an anticancer agent (or one with other therapeutic properties) carrying a free -NH- which has been derivatized by the attachment of an electrophile containing a moiety, such as p-CN- or p-NO2-pyridinylsulfonyl groups, or p-NO2- or 2,4 dinitrophenylsulfonyl groups, or suitable derivatives thereof, to make a prodrug. Optionally, the sulfonamide moiety may have attached to it a targeting molecule. The present invention also provides Glutathione S-transferase (GST)/Reduced Glutathione (GSH) as a means for the release of a protected amino derivative that has been conjugated to specific electrophilic moieties via a sulfonamide bond. The precursor is a synthetic intermediate carrying a free -NH- which has been derivatized by the attachment of an electrophile via a sulfonamide bond.

Abstract: A method for selecting a signal used in a cellular radio system having base stations and a vocoder encoding a signal. The vocoder is operationally connected to the base stations via transmission paths of different lengths. The base stations receive a signal encoded by the vocoder in the forward direction and transmit a signal to the vocoder in the reverse direction. The cellular radio system includes selectors that are separate from the base stations and that are arranged to select at least one signal to be transmitted to the vocoder from the signals received by the base stations in the reverse direction. The selectors are arranged to distribute to the base stations the signal arriving from the vocoder in the forward direction.

Abstract: L'invention a trait à un dispositif de contrôle d'usure de palier utilisable avec une pompe à moteur protégé ayant un rotor et un stator bobinés en connexion motrice avec la roue à ailettes. Le rotor, monté sur des paliers radiaux de tourillon et des paliers axiaux de butée à l'intérieur d'un carter de protection, comporte une première et une seconde cible encastrées dans sa partie périphérique externe à proximité, sur le plan axial, de ses deux extrémités. Le dispositif de contrôle comporte plusieurs capteurs montés à l'extérieur du carter de protection à proximité, sur le plan axial, de chacune des deux cibles et décalés sur le plan radial, de manière sensiblement régulière, sur la périphérie du carter de protection. Plusieurs générateurs de champ magnétique créent des champs magnétiques localisés couplés, par le biais du carter de protection, du fluide de traitement, du rotor et d'une partie au moins de l'une des cibles, aux capteurs. En réaction à la présence de chaque champ magnétique, chaque capteur produit un signal de sortie variant en fonction d'une modification de la réluctance du circuit magnétique provoquée par l'usure du palier. Un circuit de contrôle, qui est couplé aux capteurs, compare les signaux de sortie de ces capteurs et ce, afin de donner lieu à une sortie graduée en rapport sensiblement linéaire avec l'usure du palier. On utilise les sorties produites par les capteurs au même plan axial pour établir le niveau d'usure du palier dans le sens radial et celles des capteurs à des plans axiaux différents pour établir le niveau d'usure du palier dans le sens axial. On peut employer des protections électromagnétiques en fonction du milieu ambiant et des conditions d'exploitation.

Abstract: Apparatus for supporting virtual address aliasing is
disclosed in which addresses to a virtual cache are first
intercepted. It is determined whether the these addresses
are aliased,  i.e. , more than one virtual address exists for
the same location in memory. If not aliased, the addresses
are simply passed to the virtual cache. In the case where
there is aliasing, however, dealiasing is performed. New
addresses are generated and passed to the virtual cache so
that the aliased addresses are directed to the same
locations in the virtual cache. In this way, an operating
system can be supported that uses virtual address aliasing
since the CPU can transparently issue aliased virtual
addresses. These addresses, however, are directed to the
same locations in the virtual cache so that the addresses
are not aliased from the perspective of the cache, thus
avoiding the need for other hardware to compensate for the
aliasing. The modification, however, does not
substantially impact latency. The invention is most useful
in situations in which the operating system merely requires
the potential for aliasing between active processes.
