Abstract: Digital sound source data is stored in a sound source data memory 22. When a first display object (an enemy character, a waterfall, or the like) so defined as to generate a sound is displayed in a three-dimensional manner on a display screen 41 of a television 40, a audio processing unit 12 reads out the corresponding sound source data from the sound source data memory 22, to produce first and second sound source data. The first and second sound source data are converted into analog audio signals by digital-to-analog converters 16a and 16b, and are then fed to left and right speakers 42L and 42R. At this time, the audio processing unit 12 calculates delay time on the basis of a direction to the first display object as viewed from a virtual camera (or a hero character), and changes delay time of the second sound source data from the first sound source data. Further, the audio processing unit 12 individually controls the sound volume levels of the first and second sound source data depending on the distance between the first display object and the virtual camera (or the hero character). Consequently, sounds having a spatial extent corresponding to the change of a three-dimensional image can be respectively generated from the left and right speakers 42L and 42R.

Abstract: The method involves using a television set (26), several decoders (25), several data channels (27) for passing the video data to the users and other data channels (28) for passing data from the users to the video on demand (VOD) service. A coupling field (24) connects the input channels (13) and the output channels, acting as an exchange. The hard discs (11) store the television programmes and the video films on offer, each disc with seven different programmes. The data transfer rate is very high, so that, to prepare the data, a time multiplex method is employed, with a demultiplexer (12) for the data channels.

Abstract: In a synchronous semiconductor memory, there is provided a write pulse generating circuit receiving a pipeline enable signal, a write enable signal and an internal synchronous signal which is generated by delaying an output of an internal synchronous signal generating circuit by a first delay. This write pulse generating circuit includes a second delay, and is configured to generate a write pulse which is put into an inactivate condition for a constant time corresponding to a delay time of the second delay when the internal synchronous signal is brought to a high level, and thereafter, is maintained in an activate condition until the next internal synchronous signal is supplied. Thus, by adjusting the delay amount of the first delay and the delay amount of the second delay, a column selection line is never switched during a period that a write data is being supplied to write bus pairs, so that the write data is accurately written into a sense amplifier. Thus, the write execution time depends upon the cycle time, with the result that the cycle time for the writing can be shortened.

Abstract: A system that combines a reference color image with a color move tracer image creating a combined image capable of being edited as desired by the operator and one which records the actual color edits made on the reference image. The tracer is a color grid that represents the domain of colors in a specified color space encoding. The grid is converted into a color edit transform table and the color edits within the color space on a higher resolution version of the reference image, or on other images, can be performed using a table look-up operation. The invention can also be used to capture effects transforms that modify the input/output and/or screen display of an image without necessarily modifying the original image.

IPC: G11C16/06

Abstract: A non-volatile memory device is provided having an array of single transistor memory cells read in accordance with an improved read cycle operation. That is, a selected cell mutually connected via a single bit line to other cells is assured activation necessary to discern a programmed or unprogrammed state of that cell. The non-selected cells connected to the selected cell are advantageously assured of non-activation by applying a negative voltage to the word lines associated with those cells. The negative voltage is less than the threshold voltage associated with the single transistor MOS device. The non-selected cells are thereby retained inactive to provide a singular active or inactive selected cell dependent solely upon the programmed state of the array. Negative voltage upon the non-selected cells provides minimal leakage of over-erased cells normally associated with depletion mode operation.

Abstract: A buffer control system is a system for implementing both a priority control process and a shaping process of cells with a hardware configuration of a small size in a network routing fixed-length packets which are respectively composed of transfer data and control information added to the transfer data, and to which priority information is assigned, according to the control information. 
     If a cell written to an empty area of a cell buffer 26 is a prioritized cell, and its expected output time is a time slot 6, an address where the cell is stored in the cell buffer 26 is arranged in a time slot 6 in a prioritized cell entry memory. When it reaches the time to read the cell stored in the time slot 6, address stored in the time slot 6 is written to an output list chain, and the cell is read from that address. The empty area of the buffer is managed using a free list chain.

IPC: G06T9/00
Filed: 1996-12-03
Abstract: The invention is an image transmitting method and system including receiving encoded images, decoding those images and post-processing the decoded images. The post-processing reduces visual artifacts, such as blocking artifacts and mosquito noise, through separate detection, mapping and smoothing operations while avoiding many of the complexities associated with existing techniques. In detecting blocking artifacts, the inventive method employs DCT-domain detection rather than edge detection in the pixel domain. Also, the interior of a detected block is updated based on the surrounding blocks without disturbing the surrounding blocks. In reducing mosquito noise, the inventive method smoothes the non-edge pixels within blocks containing edge pixels rather than smoothing the edge pixels. Also, distortion-induced false edge pixels are distinguished from true edge pixels and heavily smoothed. The post-processing method and system is generally applicable to Block DCT based compression systems, either intrinsically or extrinsically.

Abstract: Disclosed is a mechanism to perform interactive applications in
a client-server based interactive processing system, where
these applications are presented at the client by way of
documents. 
     It is proposed to describe the documents independent of the
client's system resources for presentation of respective
document pages, and to determine only substantial functional
features for the page set up. In order to justice to all
possible system resources for presentation of applications, the
description of conversation is limited to only functional
aspects like the minimum necessary user interaction devices
which are required for running the application. 
     The real presentation set up is generated by a hardware
specific resource management device (11) located at the client
side (1) where the possible modes of interaction by a user are
determined. Before transmission (3) of conversation-relevant
information between the server (2) and the client (1), the
documents are described by separating page set up information
which is only used for set up of a page on the client side, and
page information contents which is related to the user
conversation. This page set up information can be provided on
the client side before starting a real conversation, for
instance by precaching that information on the client side. 
     The proposed mechanism and client-server architecture can be
advantageously applied in the arena of mobile computing where a
mobile client communicates with an application server over a
wireless network, what allows a uniform application provided on
a server system presentation of conversations at remote clients
which comprise various different system resources for the
presentation. Further changes for an application or amendments
in an application have to be fulfilled only on the server side
and not all clients.

Abstract: A viscous heater (9) for heating cooling water for
cooling a water cooled engine (E) is disposed in a cooling
water circuit (W), and a front heater core (15) is disposed in
the cooling water circuit at a downstream side of the viscous
heater with reference to a flow direction of the cooling
water. Only when a heating operation is the maximum heating
operation or the maximum heating operation is desired, a
viscous clutch (7) is turned on to transmit a driving force of
the engine to the viscous heater. When the maximum heating
operation is not desired, the viscous clutch is turned off so
that the driving force of the engine is not transmitted to the
viscous heater. Therefore, a load of the engine is reduced,
and the cost for running the vehicle can be lowered.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus are provided for handling asynchronous
transfer mode (ATM) cells sent from first user equipment through a
plurality of ATM nodes and destined for second equipment, when the
second equipment does not support ATM operations and maintenance
(OAM) functionality. In particular, an ATM node connected to the
second equipment is configured as an OAM proxy connection end-point
for the second equipment such that ATM data cells which are
destined for the second equipment are sent in a usual fashion, but
ATM OAM cells destined for the second equipment are terminated and
acted upon by the ATM node and are not forwarded to the second
equipment. The proxy connection end-point functionality is
preferably obtained by providing a user-friendly management
information database (MIB) which stores configuration information
for the ATM node. The configuration information is used by a
management processor of the node for deciding when an incoming OAM
cell intended for the second equipment is to be terminated by the
ATM node.
