Inventor: HSIEH JIANG
IPC: A61B6/03
Filed: 2002-03-13
Abstract: Methods and apparatus for reducing motion-induced artifacts in CT imaging
are described. The imaging system scans a patient's heart to obtain a
plurality of projection views (52), a differential projection (54) is determined
from the projection views, a weighting function (56) is applied to the
differential projection to minimize motion artifacts, and an inconsistency index
(58) is determined from the differential projection, and the inconsistency index
is used to locate an image reconstruction location (60). This method directly
measures the mechanics of the heart, rather than an electrical signal and
utilizes projection data to select the best locations to minimize image artifact.

Abstract: A technique efficiently corrects multiple storage device failures in a storage array using a combination of a single diagonal parity group and multiple row parity groups. The storage array comprises a plurality of concatenated sub-arrays, wherein each sub-array includes a set of data storage devices and a parity storage device. Each row parity group is associated with a sub-array of the array. The array further includes a global parity storage device holding diagonal parity computed across the concatenation of the sub-arrays. Instead of requiring that each parity group contain both a row parity device and a diagonal parity device, the array is composed of a collection of row parity groups. Diagonal parity is calculated across the full array.

Abstract: A method and an apparatus for optical transmission line
power feed interference compensation for compensating
for an electrical interference signal in a power feed
conductor (12; 52) and in an associated second
conductor (14; 54). The interference signal may be
produced by electromagnetic induction or by local
variation in earth potential. The compensation is
performed by producing a variable compensation signal
from an electrical interference signal produced in the
second conductor and inputting the variable
compensation signal onto the power feed conductor, in
order substantially to compensate for or cancel the
electrical interference signal produced in the power
feed conductor

Abstract: A method and apparatus are disclosed for performing adaptive memory
power management in a system employing a CPU and a memory subsystem.
A CPU throttle control (THR) module generates a CPU throttle control signal
indicating when the CPU is idle. A memory controller (MC) module generates
memory power management signals based on at least one of the CPU throttle
control signal, memory read/write signals, memory access break events, and
bus master access requests. Certain portions of the memory subsystem are
powered down in response to the memory power management signals.
Memory power management is performed on a time segment by time
segment basis to achieve efficient power management of the memory
subsystem during CPU run time.

Abstract: A VCR schedule controller receives broadcast data over antenna (1) or cable (2) by a programmable tuner (3), which is connected to a teletext receiver (4). The teletext receiver (4) is connected to a microprocessor (5). Microprocessor output (11) is connected to a video display generator (10), used to create text for television receiver (60) to display a message from the microprocessor (5). After processing embedded data in a broadcast, the microprocessor (5) generates a cue for display on TV receiver (6). Remote control receiver (20) receives a command from a remote controller (22) from a viewer input in response to the cue. Remote control receiver (20) supplies a control signal to cause the microprocessor to store the embedded data in memory (9). The microprocessor then issues a message to the display generator (10) as an acknowledgement of the viewer input. The microprocessor (5) monitors the system clock (6) and compares it with stored schedules from the embedded supplement data. When the system time corresponds to one of the scheduled times, the microprocessor (5) sets the programmable tuner (3) to the stored channel and initiates recording on VCR 30). <IMAGE>

Abstract: A control unit 203 controls a position of a pointer to be displayed on a display 208A in response to an operation of a pointing device (PD) 11 by the user. In this case, the control unit 203 detects actual operation directions 50 and 50' of the PD 11 by means of a sensing module 13. Next, the control unit 203 determines whether or not the actual operation directions 50 and 50' are included in an adjustment region 70, which is preset with a movable range of the PD 11 as an object to be adjusted. Then, when it is determined that the actual operation directions are included in the adjustment region 70, the control unit 203 adjusts information indicating the actual operation directions to information indicating a direction 60 so predetermined as to correspond to the adjustment region in such a way that a moving direction of the pointer displayed on the display 208A in response to the actual operation directions is changed to the predetermined direction.
