Abstract: Memory is divided into a plurality of banks to store software which is upgraded one bank at a time. By doing so, a memory with the same size as one bank is only needed as the temporary storage used when performing an upgrade. The terminal device only needs a memory that is "1+1/n" times as large as a total software when there are n banks, while a conventional terminal device needs a memory that is twice as large as the total software. Two loader programs are stored in different banks as a master loader program used for download processing and a backup loader program. On receiving a new loader program, one loader program is used to write the new loader program over the other loader program so as to upgrade the loader program. The backup loader program is activated when the new loader program is to be written over the master loader program.

Abstract: A memory device (10) includes memory cells (130, 230) having two tunnel
junctions (134, 136, 234, 236) in series. In order to program a selected memory cell
(130, 230), a first tunnel junction (134, 234) in the selected memory cell (130, 230) is
blown. Blowing the first tunnel junction (134, 234) creates a short across the first
tunnel junction (134, 234), and changes the resistance of the selected memory cell
(130) from a first state to a second state. The change in resistance is detectable by a
read process. The second tunnel junction (136, 236) has a different anti-fuse
characteristic than the first tunnel junction (134, 234), and is no shorted by the write
process. The second tunnel junction (136, 236) can therefore provide an isolation
function to the memory cell (130, 230) after the first tunnel junction (134, 234) is
blown.

Abstract: Provided are an improved recording method and apparatus adequate for high density and high recording speed of an optical disc. A mark and a space are formed by radiating a laser signal corresponding to a recording pulse having a peak level and a bias level onto an optical recording medium (810) using the recording pulse comprising a fine adjustment pulse with an amplitude less than the peak level and overlapped on the peak level and the bias level. By applying the fine adjustment pulse to a peak level or a bias level, the distortion of marks due to thermal interference between adjacent marks and thermal accumulation is suppressed during recording.

Abstract: When a metering process is started in an injection molding machine, a screw rotates at a preset rotating speed, thereby carrying out back pressure control to keep the pressure of a resin at a preset pressure, and retreats. When the screw is located near (Ss) a preset metering completion position (Sb), the control mode is switched to positioning control for the preset metering completion position (Sb), and a screw rotation stop command is outputted. The screw overruns for some distance (Aa) before its rotation stops after it retreats and stops at the preset metering completion position (Sb). A resin quantity for the overrun is corrected to obtain a preset metered resin quantity by reversely rotating the screw by a rotational amount (Ab) corresponding to the overrun (Aa).

plane, and the first and third ports are coupled by the
second polarization plane. The PMF has first and second
ends, and has a polarization mode to be maintained
between the first and second ends. The first end is
optically connected to the second port so that the first
polarization plane is adapted to the polarization mode,
and the second end is optically connected to the third
port so that the second polarization plane is adapted to
the polarization mode. Converted light generated by four-wave
mixing based on the signal light and the pump light
in the PMF is output from the first port, so that the
converted light can be taken out by an optical circulator (8).

Abstract: A diaphragm carburetor-based fuel supply system (46) is equipped with an air purge system (48) that vents trapped air from the fuel supply system (46). The air purge system (48) preferably includes a vent tube (90) having an outlet opening (94) into the upper portion of the system's fuel tank (50) and an inlet (92) located as close as practical to the diaphragm chamber of the carburetor (52), preferably within an internal passage of the carburetor (52) or at least in a fitting or fuel supply tube portion located closely adjacent the fuel inlet of the carburetor (52). The resulting system requires only a few pull strokes to start a freshly fueled engine, as opposed to about 15 strokes in a system lacking such an air purge system. It also permits the use of a choke that is incapable of fully closing, thereby negating the need for a "false hit" during cold engine start.
