Abstract: An optical feedback photodetection apparatus of the present invention achieves high-speed response while minimizing noise to obtain a high S/N ratio and a wide dynamic range. In the apparatus, on the basis of a modulated drive signal from a drive signal output circuit, a semiconductor laser outputs a light beam modulated at a frequency f 0  to irradiate an object to be measured through an optical system, and the light beam reflected by the object is fed back to the semiconductor laser through the optical system. The intensity of the light beam from the semiconductor laser having an optical amplification function varies due to the return light beam. A photoconductive light-receiving device to which a modulated voltage signal at the frequency f 0  from a voltage application unit is applied receives the light beam from the semiconductor laser and having an intensity varying due to the return light beam, thereby performing synchronous detection. A modulated current signal flowing through the photoconductive light-receiving device is converted to a voltage signal by a current/voltage conversion unit, and the low-frequency component of the voltage signal is extracted.

Abstract: In an image processing device for recording images with Y, M, and C color ink, a received Bk image is recorded with a color more similar to an original black color and solves a problem caused by too much amount of ejected ink such as bleeding with other colors or feathering. An image data consisting of four color elements of YMCBk is entered from a host computer 1007, a Bk conversion unit 1003 converts the Bk element to respective Y, M, and C elements by masking of respective Y, M, and C elements generated randomly for the entered Bk element image data, and an image synthesizing unit 1004 synthesizes the converted YMC elements with the entered YMC elements. Then, an image recording unit 1005 for forming an image with three colors of YMC forms an image based on the synthesized YMC elements and records the image on a recording medium with ejecting YMC ink from a recording head 201.

Abstract: L'invention concerne des polynucléotides codant la glycoprotéine B de la sous-famille RFHV/KSHV des virus gamma de l'herpès, dont trois membres sont caractérisés en détail. On a prélevé des extraits d'ADN sur des singes Macaque nemestrina et Macaque mulatta atteints de fibromatose rétropéritonéale (RF) et sur des patients sidéens atteint du sarcome de Kaposi (KS). On a amplifié les extraits en utilisant des sondes oligonucléotidiques concensus-dégénérés réalisées à partir d'une protéine connue et de séquences d'ADN des virus gamma de l'herpès. Les séquences nucléotidiques d'un fragment à 319 paires de bases sont communes à RFHV1 et à KSHV dans une proportion d'environ 76 %. Les virus gamma de l'herpès en dehors de la sous-famille RFHV/KSHV les plus proches ont environ 60-63 % des séquences de ce polynucléotide. Les séquences de ces protéines codées dans ces fragments sont communes à RFHV1 et KSHV dans une proportion d'environ 91 % et les autres virus gamma de l'herpès ont moins d'environ 65 % de ces séquences. La séquence complète de la glycoprotéine B de KSHV comprend un domaine transmembranaire près de l'extrémité N-terminale et une pluralité de sites potentiellement antigéniques dans le domaine extracellulaire. L'invention concerne également des matériels et des procédés pour caractériser les régions codant la glycoprotéine B des membres de la sous-famille RFHV/KSHV, comprenant en particulier mais non exclusivement RFHV1, RFHV2 et KSHV. Des peptides, des polynucléotides et des anticorps de cette invention peuvent être utilisés pour diagnostiquer des infections ou pour produire une réponse immune contre la glycoprotéine B.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for locking and unlocking mobile telecommunications handsets or other devices is disclosed. Each handset is unactivated at the time of purchase. Other than emergency calls, or account activation, no calls can be made using the handset unless it has been unlocked. The handset is capable of receiving a readable subscriber identity module (SIM) having a network (or other) ID and a codeword, and its operation is to be locked and unlocked with respect to the entity corresponding to the ID on the SIM. Futhermore, the handset includes a processor programmed witha unique equipment identification number and a key. All handsets manufactured as part of a particular batch may include the key, which is burned or otherwise written into a memory area of the handset so that it may not be read without its being destroyed. The handset processor is also programmed to produce a handset-specific key as a function of the equipment identification number and the batch-specific key. Upon activation of the handset, the customer service center associated with the network operator transmits a modifier to the handset. The handset changes its handset-specific key according to the modifier to yield an operator-specific key. The resulting operator-specific key is used in conjunction withthe network (or other) ID (from the SIM) to produce a checkword. If the checkword matches the codeword, which is read off the SIM, the handset is unlocked (i.e., enabled) for normal use. Other features of the invention include relocking the handset according to similar principles, and providing a personal identification number for permanently unlocking the device, so that it can be used with any compatible SIM.

Abstract: A computer system including one or more processing
nodes, each of which includes one or more subnodes is
provided. One of the subnodes (the controller subnode)
manages the interface between the processing node and the
remainder of the computer system. Other subnodes (snooper
subnodes) are employed to store access rights for coherency
units within the memory. The processing node's memory is
logically divided into portions, and each subnode stores
access rights for a particular memory portion. When a
transaction is initiated within the processing node, the
subnode storing the access rights for the coherency unit
affected by the transaction analyzes the access rights and
determines if the transaction may complete locally within
the processing node. If coherency activity is required, the
subnode asserts an ignore signal causing the transaction to
be omitted while coherency activity is performed to acquire
sufficient access rights. The access rights are updated
concurrent with reissue of a transaction for which coherency
activity is performed. In this manner, the updated access
rights are available to subsequent transactions even though
the access rights may be stored in a different subnode than
the controller subnode (which performs the reissue
transaction). In one embodiment, the updated access rights
are conveyed within one of the address phases of the reissue
transaction. A bytemask field within one of the address
phases is used.

Abstract: A process for blending paint to match an existing finish. A first color imparting
component is first provided, in an amount proportionate to a paint formulation, and mixed with a
base coat reducer to obtain a first reduced component. A second color imparting component is
also provided, in an amount proportionate to the amount of the first color imparting component
according to the paint formulation, and mixed with a base coat reducer to obtain a second
reduced component. A portion of the first reduced component is then mixed with a portion of the
second reduced component to obtain a base paint. The base paint is tested by applying the base
paint onto a surface and allowing it to dry to obtain a painted surface, and comparing the painted
surface with an existing finish after simulating a clear coat finish with a lustrous liquid. If the
painted surface does not adequately match the existing finish, a further portion of either the first
reduced component or second reduced component is added to the base paint which is again tested
as described. The process is repeated until a suitable base pant is obtained.
