Abstract: An air freshener unit (10;60) comprises a container (14;70), a disc-shaped cartridge (15;71) of air freshening material rotatably mounted within the container for rotation about a substantially horizontal axis, and a discharge outlet (20;72) in the wall of the container allowing air freshening vapour to be dispensed. The container has baffle means (13;73) adapted to allow a faster rate of evaporation of the air freshening material in one part (25;86) of the cartridge relative to the remainder of the cartridge, said one part being at least partially offset with respect to a vertical line through the axis of rotation, whereby the quicker rate of evaporation in the offset part will by itself cause the centre of gravity to self-rotate within the container. The invention also provides a disc-shaped cartridge (15;71) of air freshening material for the air freshener unit. The cartridge comprises a holder having a hub portion (27;74) for rotatably mounting the cartridge in the container (14;70) and holding means (26;46;83,84)for supporting air freshening material in block form uniformly around the hub portion. The hub portion has oppositely directed stub shafts (28,29;75,76)for location in apertures in opposed walls of the container, the apertures allowing the cartridge to rotate. The invention further provides a method of discharging different air freshening vapours from the same air freshening unit.

Abstract: A system and method which delivers data at very high data transmission speeds to many locations simultaneously. A SCANS system is supplied with a satellite uplink communication module which transmits data to an earth orbiting satellite. The satellite then retransmits the data over a wide geographical area. Each receiving location is equipped with a small satellite dish to receive data from the satellite. Advantageously, the satellite dish is connected to a work station in the switching office which then processes the received data and delivers all information in a form that is ready for use by the modules' switching office. Errors during data transmission are noted for further processing. After the data is broadcast from the beginning to the end, the SCANS system pauses for a brief interval during which time each receiving station performs error detection, error correction, and other recovery procedures on the data it just received. The SCANS system, using satellite transmission, then broadcasts data once again from the beginning to the end. Receiving stations then selectively acquire data that was missing or in error after the first transmission.

Abstract: Disclosed is an ion implantation simulation method
including calculating a particle scattering process of each
of sample particles as a simulation target using a Monte
Carlo method, determining that the particle has stopped when
scattering calculation gives zero energy of the particle,
continuously performing the scattering calculation when the
energy is not 0. When the scattering calculation yields an
energy of the particle that has decreased to α (0 ≤ α ≤ 1)
times the energy value at the time of implantation, the
particle is divided into a predetermined number N (N is an
integer) such that the weight of the particle after division
becomes 1/N that before division. The scattering calculation
and the particle division process is repeated until
particles having non-zero energy values are divided the
predetermined number of times M (M is an integer) counting
from the first division, and consequently, the weight of the
particle becomes 1/N M  that of the initially implanted
particle, performing the scattering calculation for particles
which have been divided the predetermined number of
times M until the energy value becomes 0, and determining
the positions where the energy values of all the sample
particles become 0 as stop positions in a substrate, thereby
obtaining an impurity distribution.

IPC: G06F12/08
Filed: 1997-06-30
Abstract: A flexible scheme is provided for designating the appropriate write-back protocol best suited
for each memory level within a multi-level-cache computer system. The skip-level memory
hierarchy of the present invention includes a lower-level copy-back cache and a higher-level write-through
cache. This greatly simplifies the implementation of the higher-level cache, since it may
be implemented with a write-or-read access to its address tag. Although counterintuitive, a write-through
higher-level cache in a distributed shared memory may also increase the efficiency of the
computer system without unduly increasing the volume of network traffic within the computer
system. This is because a write-through higher-level cache increases the probability of readily-available
cached copies of updated data which are consistent with the home copies of the data,
thereby reducing the number of fetches from remote home locations whenever the data is not found
in the lower-level cache but is found in the higher-level cache.
