Inventor: ARAI MASAHIRO
IPC: F02D41/04
Filed: 2000-12-14
Abstract: In control apparatus and method for an internal
combustion engine having variably operated engine valves,
a target vacuum pressure is calculated on the basis of an
engine driving condition and an opening angle of an
electronically controlled throttle valve is disposed in
an intake air passage to achieve the target vacuum pressure.
A target air quantity to be sucked within an engine cylinder
on the basis of the engine driving condition is calculated
and a valve closure timing of an intake valve of, e.g.,
an electromagnetic operation type is controlled to achieve
the target air quantity. At this time, in accordance with
the target vacuum pressure TBOOST(or in accordance with
an actual vacuum pressure BOOST detected by means of a
vacuum pressure sensor), the target air quantity to
calculate the valve closure timing of the intake valve
calculated on the basis of target air quantity is corrected
or the intake valve closure timing IVC per se is corrected
by a correction value of ΔIVC.

Abstract: A flash memory device and a programming method for use in a flash memory
device are disclosed. According to the programming method, first, one of data bits to be
programmed starts to be programmed in a corresponding memory cell. Then, before the
previous program operation is ended, the next of the data bits starts to be programmed.
By such a program algorithm, although the integration degree of the flash memory
device is increased, a sufficient amount of current required to program can be supplied
without an increment of the size of the integrated circuit die due to the charge pump
circuit.

Abstract: Disclosed are network management procedures that apply measurements of
traffic load to achieve greater efficiency in the operation of the network. In a method
for deciding whether to route an incoming call on a selected potential service route,
the potential service route is treated preferentially if each of its links has available
capacity that is more than sufficient by a specified margin. In a method for
computing billing revenues, the non-compliance of the network service provider
with contracted requirements for carried load causes a revenue penalty to be exacted
for lost bandwidth.

Abstract: The use of gene therapy for the treatment of different kinds of fibrosis in
human beings is disclosed. The purpose is the use of "therapeutic" genes specifically
directed to target organs to revert and/or prevent the development of the fibrosis
process. 
     The potential application of gene therapy to patients with fibrosis and/or
cirrhosis will depend to a large extent on the successful delivery of genes which
encode for therapeutic proteins to livers with severe fibrosis and that these genes
which encode for proteins human MMP-8 active and latent, MMP-1, MMP-2, MMP-9
and MMP-13; human uPA wild type and/or modified (or its truncated version), the
truncated receptor for TGF-β type II and Smad-7 can be directed by adenovirus
and/or other recombinant vectors that cannot transduce (infect) others organs. The
recombinant adenoviruses (AdR) are vectors highly efficient for the transduction of
therapeutic genes to diverse target cells. We have proved that they can carry genes
to cirrhotic livers. 
     The delivery of therapeutic genes through such adenoviral vectors and
other recombinant vectors could also be performed using cationic and anionic
liposomes (DOTMA). 
     Therefore, we propose the use of this patent to be applied in the same
manner to:
     Renal fibrosis   Pulmonary fibrosis   Hypertrophic and keloid scars (skin fibrosis), and   Other kinds of fibrosis.

Abstract: In an instruction prefetch circuit, even when a branch instruction
is prefetched, the circuit continues a prefetch operation until branching
is actually executed. Accordingly, when the branch instruction is a
conditional branch instruction and not actually executed, the circuit
continues the prefetch operation so that the prefetched instructions are
efficiently supplied to a processor. It may be arranged that, when the
branch instruction is an unconditional branch instruction, a branch
destination address is extracted from the unconditional branch
instruction and used as a prefetch address. Accordingly, the circuit
continues the prefetch operation even when branching is executed. It
may further be arranged that, when the branch instruction is a
conditional branch instruction, a branch destination address is extracted
from the conditional branch instruction and further a branch prediction
is performed. When branching is expected based on the branch
prediction, the branch destination address is used as a prefetch address.
Accordingly, as long as the branch prediction does not fail, the circuit
continues the prefetch operation.

Abstract: A content addressable memory (CAM) permits a matching operation to be performed over multiple stored entries. The CAM includes a matrix of cells having (n+1) columns and m rows, wherein n and m are each integers greater than or equal to 1, and wherein each row of cells comprises: n data storage cells; a carry storage cell; word compare logic; and carry write logic. For each word of CAM storage, the data storage cells store bits representing one of a number of fractional parts of the data to be stored. The carry storage cell stores a signal that represents whether a previous row generated a match in a preceding matching operation. By presenting fractional parts of a large comparand in sequence, a final compare operation generates an output that indicates whether the entire comparand (i.e., the fractional parts of the comparand considered together) matched a stored entry in the CAM.
