Abstract: The invention relates to organising the refreshing of DRAM memory circuits, more particularly to refreshing the circuits in a situation where a device, which is designed to support two memory banks, is used to refresh three or even more memory banks. In the system according to the invention, the RAS' signals of the additional DRAM memory banks are interconnected, so that the device supporting two memory banks refreshes all memory banks while refreshing the first two memory banks. In order to avoid collisions of the memory bank signals owing to the interconnection of the RAS' signals, the microprocessor inactivates the additional memory banks by intermediation of a DRAM controller for the period during which said device uses the memory banks.

Abstract: A method for encoding a video signal of a contour of an object
based on an iterated refinement technique determines a
plurality of primary vertices on the contour; and calculates
a displacement for each contour segment to produce
displacements on all pairs of two adjacent primary vertices.
After determining a dynamic range as a criterion for encoding
pixel data on the contour based on the displacements, the
method searches a larger contour segment which is a contour
segment whose number of bits required to encode pixel data
thereon is larger than that of the dynamic range, and inserts
one or more secondary vertices on the larger contour segment
based on the dynamic range.

Abstract: Containers are conveyed through an oven on a
conveyor to cause a foamable material on each container to
foam and become a heat insulative layer. The containers
are supported on respective holders of the conveyor, which
prevent the containers from contacting one another.
Preferably, the holders support the containers loosely,
to enable the containers to wobble relative to the holders
under the influence of oven air currents and conveyor
vibration. The holders thus do not make contact with any
given point on their respective containers for a time
period that is sufficient to enable the holders to draw
enough heat away from the container to adversely affect
the foaming operation. The containers are conveyed in
single file, along a serpentine path through the oven.
