Abstract: The heater assembly comprises a heater element (20) having a plurality of end portions (28, 30) associated therewith, electrical insulation material (32, 34) positioned in surrounding relationship on at least two sides of the heater element (20), a housing member (12, 36) enclosing the heater element (20) and insulation material (32, 34) and an opening (38, 18) extending through at least a portion of the insulating material (34) located adjacent one side of the heater element (20) and through at least a portion of the housing member (12, 36). The heater element end portions (28, 30) extend through such openings (38, 18) so as to be readily exposed exterior of the housing member (12, 36). This construction enables the basic heater unit to be fully fabricated and assembled without attaching a particular style of lead/terminal connection thereto.

Abstract: In data processing, large quantities of data records frequently occur which only differ in individual data words. These data records can be generated in many cases from a single data pattern - which contains dummy characters, by using values for the dummy characters. An example is the testing of software. In this case, test cases which differ from one another only at a few points must be offered in a large volume to the program to be tested. If all the different test cases had to be stored, a large storage space would be required. To avoid this, the data which have the same significance but can obtain a changeable value are replaced by a dummy character. Data patterns are formed from at least one dummy character and are stored in a list about which value the dummy characters could assume and which values of a dummy character can be combined with values of other dummy characters. In this list, data records are generated by inserting the values according to the list into the data patterns. It is suitable to arrange the list in the form of a matrix, the rows specifying the values of the dummy characters whilst the columns contain markings which indicate which dummy character values can be combined with one another.

Abstract: The solid-state imaging device comprises a light-barrier layer (14) formed on transfer electrodes (17, 18) on top of a vertical pixel isolating region (13) by means of an insulating film (16). The light-barrier layer (14) overlies the lateral sides of the transfer electrodes (17, 18) and the peripheral region of a photosensor region (12) neighboring on the vertical pixel isolating region (13). By provision of the light-barrier layer (14), the light incident on the vertical pixel isolating region (13) is stopped to reduce smear charges which might otherwise be intruded into the vertical charge transfer section (21).

Abstract: A speech coding and speech recognition apparatus. The value of at least one feature of an utterance is measured over each of a series of successive time intervals to produce a series of feature vector signals. The closeness of the feature value of each feature vector signal to the parameter value of each of a set of prototype vector signals is determined to obtain prototype match scores for each vector signal and each prototype vector signal. For each feature vector signal, first-rank and second-rank scores are associated with the prototype vector signals having the best and second best prototype match scores, respectively. For each feature vector signal, at least the identification value and the rank score of the first-ranked and second-ranked prototype vector signals are output as a coded utterance representation signal of the feature vector signal, to produce a series of coded utterance representation signals. 
     For each of a plurality of speech units, a probabilistic model has a plurality of model outputs, and output probabilities for each model output. Each model output comprises the identification value of a prototype vector and a rank score. For each speech unit, a match score comprises an estimate of the probability that the probabilistic model of the speech unit would output a series of model outputs matching a reference series comprising the identification value and rank score of at least one prototype vector from each coded utterance representation signal in the series of coded utterance representation signals.

Abstract: An improved NDE method utilizes a laser source (10) with modulator (8) and scanning mirror (12), a pancake shape eddy current detecting coil (16), a lock-in amplifier (4), a system controller (2), and an impedance gain/phase analyzer (6). The laser is directed by the scanning mirror (12) to a specimen (14) to be analyzed. A very localized or small area of the specimen (14) is impacted directly by the laser beam creating a thermal and stress wave in the specimen (14). The impedance gain/phase analyzer (6) is connected to the eddy current detecting coil (16) and to the lock-in amplifier (4) through the system controller (2). The lock-in amplifier (4) is also synchronized to the laser modulator (8). The system controller (2) is used to control the lock-in amplifier (4), scanning mirror (12), and to process data from the analyzer (6). Raster scanning of the laser beam across the specimen (14) allows detection by the coil (16) of the laser generated thermal and elastic strains induced in the specimen by the laser (10). The rastering of the laser beam is controlled by the controller (2) by positioning the mirror (12).

Abstract: Soldering is performed and the residues associated with the soldering process are removed through the use of a specific process. Components such as two integrated circuits or an integrated circuit and mounting board are initially tacked by compression bonding or through the use of adhesives. Flux is introduced, and the components to be soldered are brought to reflow temperature. The flux is chosen so that upon reflow and subsequent cool - ing to a temperature of 100°C, or lower, the flux remains in liquid state. The flux is then easily re - moved by cleaning with a miscible liquid that is subsequently removed through processes such as spinning and evaporation.

Abstract: The invention relates to a process for the electrochemical purification of water, in which, for the treatment, water to be purified by electrolytic coagulation to remove impurities, with added carbon particles, is passed through a porous iron mass connected to the positive pole of the power source of an electrolytic chamber, and relates to an apparatus for carrying out this process. The process according to the invention and the apparatus according to the invention achieve the object of being able to carry out more efficiently the purification of industrial waste waters (effluents), in particular industrial waste waters containing heavy metal ions. The solution according to the invention of this object provides that the water to be purified, before being passed through the porous iron mass, is passed through a further porous mass, connected to the positive pole, made of a conducting material not anodically soluble. By means of the solution according to the invention, the waste water can be treated more efficiently for the subsequent separation of impurities by electrolytic coagulation, in that blockage of the porous iron mass by reaction products and accompanying materials is prevented over a longer period and the porous iron mass can therefore be kept reactive over a longer period. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A packet communications system utilizes a route determining mechanism by identifying principal paths between the source and the destination in the system. Principal paths are minimum hop count paths with a transmission delay less than a specified threshold. Principal path links are accepted as legs of the optimum path, if feasible, i.e., if the resulting load on the link is less than a specified principal threshold. Secondary links are accepted only if the resulting load on the link is less than a specified secondary threshold, where the secondary threshold is less than the principal threshold. All paths must also have a transmission delay less than a specified threshold. Each request for a route includes the source node, the destination node, the load required, the maximum transmission delay and, if desired, the quality of service parameters which all of the legs of the route must satisfy. A modified Bellman-Ford breadth-first search algorithm is used to identify the principal links and, using these principal link identifications, determining the optimum path.
