Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for the preparation of synthesis gas (i.e., a mixture of carbon monoxide and hydrogen), typically labeled syngas. More particularly, the present invention relates to a regeneration method for a syngas catalyst. Still more particularly, the present invention relates to the regeneration of syngas catalysts using a re-dispersion technique. The re-dispersion technique involves the formation and removal of carbonyls with the active metals. The carbonyl formation and removal effectively re-disperses the catalyst metal.

Patent EP-1510917-A1 (EP)
Inventor: DELENDA ARNAUD
IPC: G06F9/50
Filed: 2003-08-27
Abstract: The system takes account of all the requests for use of resources from multiple customers, made during a predetermined time slot. The sum of such requests is determined, and on the basis of this determination an appropriate allocation of resource is determined. This provides a more efficient use of the resource than a tradition first in-first out arrangement. The procedure for allocation of a resource between n logical agents requesting the resource includes the reception of a resource request function (s i(p)) transmitted by each requesting agent. All such requests received during a predetermined time period are processed in order to determine the quantity of the resource to allocated to each requesting agent. This process includes the calculation of data corresponding to a balance value (p*) with respect to the sum (S) of n request functions (s i(p)), such that S(p*) = Q, where Q is the total quantity of the resource available and S(p) is the sum of the requests from the individual agents.

IPC: G11C17/18

Abstract: The memory cell (1) comprises at least one, in particular two branches (2,3) connected between two terminals (4,5) where the read voltage (Vr) is applied; each branch comprises two stages connected in series, that is a pre-read stage (6,7) each with two switchable resistors (Rg1,Rg2;Rg3,Rg4) connected in parallel, and a programming stage (8,9) containing a programmable resistor (Rp1,Rp2) of polycrystalline silicon, where the programmable resistors terminals (14,15) are accessible to a proper programming circuit to implement an irreversible decrease of each programmable resistance.  The decrease (delta)Rp of the value of the programmable resistance (Rp1,Rp2) is predetermined and chosen to be greater than the difference (delta)Rg between two resistances (Rg1,Rg2;Rg3,Rg4) in the pair of each pre-read stage (6,7). The memory cell also comprises interrupters (K10,K11) for isolating the pre-read stages (6,7) from the programming stages (8,9). The programming stages comprise switches (K14,K15) for aplying the programming voltage (Vp) which is higher than the read voltage (Vr) to the terminals of the programmable resistors (Rp1,Rp2). The reading of the cell state is effected in two successive steps in the course of which the switchable resistors (Rg1,Rg2,Rg3,Rg4) of the pre-read stages are alternatingly selected. Each programmable resistor (Rp1,Rp2) is connected to the lower supply voltage terminal, in particular the ground (5) by a transistor (MN1,MN2) connected as a bistable with the transistor of the other branch. The switchable resistors (Rg1,Rg2;Rg3,Rg4) of the two branches (2,3) are simultaneously controlled so that the values of the selected resistances in each branch are inverted. The irreversible decrease (delta) Rp of the programmable resistances is greater than the difference (E) of the nominal values of the programmable resistances in the non-programmed state. In a variant of the memory cell, the terminal of the programmable resistor is the read terminal which is connectable to the first input of an amplifier whose second input is connected to a reference potential which is chosen at a level intermediate between the voltage levels at the read terminal in the two read phases when the programmable resistance is in the non-programmed state. A method (claimed) for reading the memory cell (claimed) consists in effecting two successive read steps in the course of which the switchable resistances of the pre-read stage are selected.

Abstract: There are here disclosed a method for removing a
titanium-based film from a honeycomb-molding die having on
the surface of a base material coated with the titanium-based
film, and a method for removing an oxide of titanium from a
honeycomb-molding die having the oxide of titanium
adhered/deposited on the surface of a base material. In each
method, a removing solution comprising a mixture of an acid
and hydrogen peroxide is used. According to the methods for
removing the titanium-based film and the oxide of titanium, a
large amount of the titanium-based film as well as the oxide
of titanium adhered/deposited on the base material of a
honeycomb-molding die can be removed by use of a small amount
of the removing solution without corroding the base material
of honeycomb-molding die while re-deposition of dissolved
titanium ions on the base material is prevented.

IPC: H04L9/32
Filed: 2003-05-27
Abstract: A certifying authority provides a method for whitelist-based controlling of authentication of a first device (102) in a system (100) to a second device (103). The method comprises issuing to the first device (102) a group certificate identifying a range of non-revoked device identifiers, said range encompassing the device identifier of the first device (102). Preferably the device identifiers correspond to leaf nodes in a hierarchically ordered tree, and the group certificate identifies a node (202-207) in the tree representing a subtree in which the leaf nodes correspond to said range. The group certificate can also identify a further node (308, 310, 312) in the subtree which represents a sub-subtree in which the leaf nodes correspond to revoked device identifiers. Alternatively, the device identifiers are selected from a sequentially ordered range, and the group certificate identifies a subrange of the sequentially ordered range, said subrange encompassing the whitelisted device identifiers.

Abstract: An integrated circuit (IC) comprises a network and a plurality of modules (M1, M2, M3) which communicate to each other via the network. A first module (M1) sends a plurality of requests (REQ) to at least two second modules (M2 ,M3, Mn) and the second modules send individual responses (RESP2, RESP3, RESPn) to the first module, indicating a result of the execution of the requests. The integrated circuit (IC) comprises a network capable of sending a single response (SRESP) to the first module (M1) dependent on the individual responses (RESP2, RESP3 up to and including RESPn) from the second modules (M2, M3, Mn). The single response (SRESP) can indicate that at least one second module has executed the requests (REQ) or that a specific error has occurred in at least one of the second modules (M2, M3, Mn). The single response (SRESP) can also indicate which types of error have occurred in the second modules (M2, M3, Mn). If various errors have occurred, the single response (SRESP) can indicate which error is the most serious error or information about all errors.

Abstract: In a plasma film forming apparatus, two first electrodes 51
connected to a power source 4 and two grounded second electrodes 52 are
arranged in the order of the second electrode 52, the first electrode 51, the
first electrode 51 and the second electrode 52. A first flow passage 50a
formed between the central first electrodes 51 allows a raw material gas
(first gas) for being formed into a film to pass therethrough. A plasma
discharge space 50b of a second flow passage formed between the first
and second electrodes 51, 52 on the both sides allows an excitable gas
(second gas) to pass therethrough, which excitable gas is exited by plasma
such that the raw material can be formed into a film, but that the excitable
gas itself is merely excited but not formed into a film. Those gases are
converged at a crossing part 20c between the first and second flow
passages and blown off via a common blowoff passage 25a. By this, the
apparatus composing members such as electrodes can be prevented from
being adhered with a film.
