Abstract: A sheet of silicate glass having a thickness of 2mm and composed mainly of
SiO 2  and containing Al 2 O 3 , B 2 O 3 , Na 2 O, F, etc. is immersed in a molten salt
comprising a mixture of 50 mol % of silver nitrate and 50 mol % of sodium
nitrate. Na ions in the surface of the glass are eluted, diffusing Ag ions in the
molten salt into the glass. When a laser beam is applied to the glass substrate
thus formed, the glass substrate is evaporated or ablated progressively from
its surface. The glass substrate is processed to a smooth finish without
causing cracking or breakage.

Abstract: A rotary electric machine has two sub-windings (11, 12)
shifted by 30 degrees from each other. Each sub-winding is connected
to an individual bridge (21, 22) which has MOS transistors (210) on
the ground sides. It is possible to supply a charging current even at
a low rotational speed by switching the MOS transistors (210) at a
high-frequency. The basic components of magnetic force are canceled
because of the shifted sub-windings (11,12). The switching components
of the magnetic forces generated by the switching operation are
canceled by switching two groups of the MOS transistors (210) in
opposite states. As a result, it is possible to decrease the magnetic
noise significantly.

Abstract: A recording device for digital data streams,
such as digital TV broadcasts or digitized music, stores
copies of program content encrypted by a key unique to
the recording device. Distribution of program content
is thus discouraged, since intelligible playback of
program content would not be obtained on another
recording device, which would have a different key. To
reduce manufacturing complexity which would result from
requiring all bits of a key to inhere in hardware, a
first portion of the key inheres in hardware and a
second portion is selected from among several candidates
residing in a memory device, the key being determined by
combining the first and second portions according to
predetermined rules. The second portion is reselected
at predetermined intervals from among the candidates.
Only payload portions of packets are encrypted while
header portions are left in the clear in order to
facilitate ancillary functions of recorder such as fast
forward, fast rewind, and program search.

Abstract: A process for processing stainless steel slags, wherein these stainless steel slags are crushed to a particle size which is mainly smaller than about 60 mm at the most and wherein the crushed steel slags are processed further to produce a shape retaining mass containing the particles of the crushed steel slags in a bound state. Use can be made herefor of a hydraulically binding agent such as cement and/or fly ash, asphalt or synthetic material or of a fine fraction of the crushed steel slags themselves since they also have hydraulic properties. Due to the binding of the particles in the shape retaining mass, the problem of leaching, in particular of chromium, nickel and fluoride, is solved. In order to avoid swelling of possible free lime present in the crushed steel stags, these steel slags are brought into contact with water to reduce the free lime content to a value lower than 1% by weight at the most.

The personal certificate includes the digital watermark embedded in an authentic image (12) such as a facial photograph, a retinal scan, or a fingerprint. When the personal certificate is used, the authentic image is read from the personal certificate, and the digital watermark information is extracted. The digital watermark information and the identifier are compared with the counterparts stored in the database. If the extracted digital watermark information is identical to the information in the database, then the personal certificate is judged to be unjustifiable. In one embodiment, at least one of the identifier and digital watermark are changed each time the system justifies the personal certificate.
