Patent EP-0349462-A3 (EP)
IPC: G06F13/00
Filed: 1989-06-07
Abstract: A method is disclosed for defining the structure 
of a document by specifying the relationships between 
document elements in a data stream. A plurality of tabu­
lar specifications are provided, each of which includes a 
number of document elements. The logical relationship 
between each document element and all other document 
elements within each tabular specification is specified 
once for the entire tabular specification. The semantic 
interpretation for each tabular specification is associat­
ed with a named reference to that tabular specification so 
that multiple references to that tabular specification may 
yield different semantic interpretations. In this manner, 
it is possible to minimize the amount of specification to 
define a document by utilizing individual tabular specifi­
cations repeatedly. Additionally, a reference to a tabular 
specification may be utilized to modify the existing 
logical relationship between the document elements con­
tained therein. In a preferred embodiment of the present 
invention, a range of allowable values for individual 
document elements within a tabular specification may be 
specified by the user.

Patent EP-0378386-A3 (EP)
IPC: H04R3/12
Filed: 1990-01-10
Abstract: An electronic gaming device (10) (e.g., a 
so-called "videogame" type portable electronic game 
including a raster scanned liquid crystal display 
panel (14) and user controls (18)) includes a 
pseudo-stereo sound generator (58). Plural 
independent sound generating circuits (541-544) 
produce audio signals under microcomputer (22) 
control and the microcomputer (22) may route the 
outputs of the plural sound generating circuits 
(541-544) independently to one or the other (or both) 
of two independent audio channel outputs. 
Pseudo-stereo sound is thus produced when a stereo 
headset (64) is used to listen to the sounds 
produced. A selecting circuit (202) automatically 
mixes the two audio channel (SO1, SO2) outputs 
together and provides them in monaural form to an 
internal loudspeaker (62) when no such stereophonic 
headset (64) is connected.  
     The microcomputer (22) controls generation of 
sounds and music in accordance with a musical pitch 
(frequency) data structure (312), a musical duration 
data structure (314) and a musical score data 
structure (316) stored in the interchangeable memory 
cartridge (16). The musical score data structure 
(316) specifies pitch and duration in terms of 
address offsets into the pitch and duration data 
structures (312, 314). Program control instructions 
(310) controlling sound generation thus need not 
explicitly specify the actual control data written to 
the sound generator (58) to produce musical notes of 
desired pitches, durations and other characteristics.

Title: Process and apparatus for controlling the metering of carbon source in the denitrification step of a waste water purification plant
IPC: C02F3/30
Filed: 1992-09-09
Abstract: Controlling the metering of carbon-source addition to the denitrification step of a waste water purification plant can be achieved by monitoring the methane concentration in the exhaust gas of the denitrification step and controlling the carbon-source feed in such a manner that the methane concentration in the exhaust gas remains at / 0.03% and in particular in the range from 0.2-0.4%, especially 0.2-0.3%. The redox potential in the effluent of the denitrification step is expediently additionally monitored and, if desired, kept at values in the range from -340 to -470 mV by additional carbon-source-feed control, the carbon-source feed being preferably spontaneously released if the redox potential exceeds -100 mV. An apparatus suitable therefor includes a methane metering device connected to the gas space of the denitrification and a metering regulator in the carbon-source feedline to the denitrification step, which controls the feed in proportion to the deviation from the set point determined by the methane measurement, and, if required, a redox potential measurement probe connected to the metering regulator and arranged in the effluent of the denitrification step, whose signal is passed to the metering regulator as an additional control parameter for the carbon-source feed. <IMAGE>
