IPC: G06F11/10
Filed: 2000-09-08
Abstract: A code error correcting circuit (ECT) interleaves original
data comprising a sequence of bit data having a length of p bits by
arranging the bit data of the original data into a hypothetical matrix
of I rows and J columns and then selecting the bit data positioned on
the i th  row along an order of the j th  column. The circuit is provided
with: a memory unit (2) having a plurality of memory areas each
having a length of 2 n  bits; a controller (1) for storing the original
data to be interleaved into the memory areas respectively; a first
data generating device (6, 7, 8) for generating a first data indicating
a position of the i th  row in the hypothetical matrix; a second data
generating device (9, 10, 11) for generating a second data indicating
a position of the j th  column in the hypothetical matrix; an address
decoding device (14) for generating address data indicating one of
the memory areas, in which the bit data positioned on the j th  column
are stored, on the basis of the first data and the second data; and a
select data decoding device (15) for generating a bit select data
indicating the bit data positioned on the i th  row among the bit data
stored in said one of the memory areas, which is indicated by the
address data, on the basis of the first data and the second data.
The bit data, which are indicated by the bit select data, stored in the
memory unit are sequentially outputted along an order of the i th  row
and the j th  column in the hypothetical matrix as the interleaved
original data.

Abstract: A communication path control system is provided for use in a data network
configured by a number of buses (1a-1d) each of which installs at least one node as an
isochronous resource manager (IRM) based on the IEEE 1394 standard. Adjacent
buses are interconnected together by means of a bridge (2a-2c) consisting of at least
two portals (7a, 7b; 8a, 8b; 9a, 9b), each of which has a connection counter for
counting a number of receiving nodes for receiving stream packets being transmitted
thereto from a transmitting node by itself. For establishment of a communication
path, a device controller (5d) specifies all portals that lie in the communication path to
request each of them to increment a value of the connection counter by 1'. For
disconnection of the communication path, the device controller requests each of the
specified portals to decrement a value of the connection counter by 1'. More
specifically, each portal stores a communication path management table containing the
connection counter (FA4), while the device controller stores a communication path
management table that describes resources (e.g., bandwidths, channels) in connection
with a connection counter (FE6) with respect to each of buses (FE3) corresponding to
the communication path. At occurrence of bus reset on a specific bus, its
corresponding portal proceeds to initialization of the specific bus, then, the device
controller proceeds to re-securement or release of the resources.

Abstract: A center rib and a second rib are formed at a tread surface of a
pneumatic tire along an outer contour line L1 of a radius R1 whose
center is at a tire inner side. A shoulder rib is formed at the tread
surface along an outer contour line L2 of a radius R2 whose center is
at a tire inner side. A step between the outer contour line L1 and a
ground contact surface of the shoulder rib decreases toward a tire
transverse direction outer end portion. Accordingly, when a heavy
load is applied to the pneumatic tire, due to the step between, on the
one hand, the shoulder rib, and on the other hand, the center rib and
the second rib, uneven wear at the second rib can be suppressed.
When a light load is applied, because the step decreases toward the
tire transverse direction outer end portion, uneven wear of the
shoulder rib can be suppressed. The pneumatic tire exhibits excellent
uneven wear resistance at all land portions formed on the pneumatic
tire.

Abstract: A money validator, such as a coin validator, can operate with different
types of vending machines. With one type of vending machine, the coin
validator chooses a suitable scaling factor in accordance with the values of coin
denominations which it is intended to accept and transmits the scaling factor for
use by the vending machine. The coin mechanism can also respond to a pre-set
scaling factor in order to determine which coin denominations should be
inhibited, for example because they have values which are not integer divisible
by the scaling factor.

Abstract: An exhaust gas stream (12) containing oxides of nitrogen and sulfur from a fossil fuel fired boiler, a fired process heater, or a chemical process are diverted from a stack prior to emission to the atmosphere through a duct system (20) to a mixer (22) where an oxidant, such as ozone (30), is added to the exhaust gas at a preselected molar ratio for a preselected residence time to transform the oxides to higher order nitrogen oxides. The oxidized contaminants are treated with a reagent solution (60,78). The reagent solution absorbs the oxidized contaminants and unreacted oxidant in the exhaust gas stream. Nitrogen and sulfur oxides in the gas steam are transformed to dilute acids which are neutralized to form salts suitable for discharge to a municipal waste water treatment plant or landfill disposal. The salt solution is also useful as a fertilizer or in the manufacture of fertilizers. The treated exhaust gas (84) is then emitted from an exhaust stack containing NOx and SOx contaminants at a ppm level meeting required air quality standards. <IMAGE>

supplied thereto from the second power input portion.
This enables the recording/reproducing device and the
audio circuit to operate even when no source power is
supplied from the existing power supply circuit, for
example, when the power supply (32) for the host device
(30) is turned off, and when the bay unit is

Abstract: A method of reducing gaseous phase presence in the liquid fuel metering
chamber of a diaphragm by providing a "High-Point Pick Up" hole positioned in the
optimal metering chamber location (highest) to assure maximum purge evacuation of air
and/or other gases prior to engine start-up and during running. This optimal location is
dependent upon first determining, in advance of carburetor fuel feed circuitry and/or air
purge system design, the orientation of the carburetor as mounted on the engine in its
primary operator usage position, or so-called "standard operating position" (SOP). This
SOP in turn is determined in the first instance by the engine manufacturer and/or the
manufacturer of the portable engine-driven handheld appliance on which the engine is
mounted. In one embodiment the two typical fluid circuits (air purge and normal
idle/high speed fuel feed circuits) share a common, sole take-off inlet opening into the
metering chamber, the same being located at the highest elevation point in the metering
chamber in the given SOP orientation. This assures that the maximum amount of air
and/or fuel vapor is removed from the metering chamber during purging prior to start-up
and during running. In accordance with the invention, the primary usage position (SOP
orientation) of the engine is determined and becomes a known use parameter prior to the
carburetor manufacturer determining such take-off hole location. Both butterfly valve
cubic carburetor and rotary valve carburetor embodiments are disclosed embodying the
invention.

Abstract: Optical discs formatted to record plural audio streams of
different content for reproduction with a single video stream can result in
audio output of content unexpected by the user depending upon the audio
stream configuration contained in the AV stream reproduced. This can
confuse and cause the user to change the audio output after reproduction
starts. To prevent this, information indicating the type of audio stream
configuration contained in each AV stream on the optical disc is stored
with each audio stream. This audio stream type information is presented
to the user on the same screen from which an AV program is selected for
playback, The user can thus know before playback starts what audio
stream channel is preselected for playback, and can change the audio
channel as desired before playback starts.
