Abstract: A distributed object rendering method and system for a collaborative
data network is disclosed. The data network, which may include the
Internet, has attached computing nodes, including object requestor nodes,
object source nodes, and intermediate nodes which may be proxy servers. The
method can allow each participating proxy server to adapt to the dynamic
load conditions of itself as well as proxies, as well as to dynamic traffic
conditions in the data network. The determination of which proxy or set of
proxies is to perform object rendering and caching is based on a
distributed, collaborative method that is adopted among the proxies. The
criteria for such a method can include the bandwidth and current load of
the network links among proxies, and/or the respective CPU usage of the
proxies. If an object rendering can be staged, e.g., different resolution
rendering, it can be performed by more than one of the proxies. The
determination of which proxy performs which stage of the multistage
rendering can also be adaptive to the dynamic load conditions, as well as
network conditions.

Abstract: In a plasma display panel, a drive means (80) makes
a correction so as to decrease the emission
intensity of green or to increase the emission intensity of blue
as the display load factor increases.
Alternatively, the PDP drive means (80) makes a
correction so as to increase the emission intensity of green
or to decrease the emission intensity of blue as the display
load factor decreases.
Such a correction is effective when the
monochromatic emission luminance of the fluorescent substance
has such a saturation characteristic that the decrease in green
is greater than blue as the emission frequency increases.
Therefore, when the saturation characteristic is the opposite
in terms of the relationship between green and blue, the
increase/decrease of the emission intensity in the above
correction must be the opposite. In this way, the color
temperature of white displayed on the PDP can be kept
consistent, regardless of the brightness.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne des articles microcellulaires, de même que des procédés et des appareils permettant de produire des mousses polymères, et en particulier un matériau microcellulaire. Ces procédés consistent à former une couche de gaz dans le moule de façonnage d'un polymère qui empêche les contacts entre le polymère fondu et le moule durant l'extrusion. Dans un ensemble de mode de réalisation de l'invention, cette couche de gaz est obtenue par la diffusion de gaz à l'extérieur des surfaces du matériau polymère nucléé. Dans d'autres modes de réalisation de l'invention, on forme la couche de gaz en introduisant un gaz en provenance d'une source extérieure dans un canal d'écoulement de polymère dans le moule. Les moules, selon cette invention, sont spécialement agencés pour pouvoir générer et supporter la couche de gaz. Les formes extrudées sont exemptes de défauts de surface, qui surviennent généralement lorsque le polymère fondu est en contact avec les surfaces du moule.

IPC: B01F7/04

Abstract: A water blending apparatus for use in conditioning foundry sand. The
apparatus creates a vertical sand stream flow path which increases the surface area of the
sand stream and allows water to be applied to both sides of the sand stream rather than
a single side, as known with conventional water mixing apparatus. In addition, the
blending apparatus includes a housing inside which a pair of mixers thoroughly mix the
wetted sand. Because the mixers are not positioned in-line with the main sand processing
flow, as in conventional apparatus, the mixing time is not dependent upon the speed of
the conveyor, and therefore mixing time may be increased. Furthermore, the agitators
positioned inside the housing have a more efficient active area since a smaller clearance
space is required than with over-the-conveyor style mixing devices, which must avoid
contact with the conveyor belt. As a result, the sand may be cooled more quickly due to
increased initial water coverage. Furthermore, the sand is cooled to a more uniform
temperature since the blending apparatus more thoroughly mixes the sand and water,
creating a more uniform moisture content in the sand. Still further, a post-cooling
blending device may be used to introduce additional water to the sand stream, thereby
activating bentonite or other materials added to the sand, which may require a higher
moisture content.
