Patent EP-1152468-A2 (EP)
Inventor: SHARP NOLAN DAVID
IPC: G06F17/50
Filed: 2001-04-05
Abstract: An application specific integrated circuit (ASIC) and method of
manufacture. The ASIC includes a substrate layer, at least one metal layer and
an operational block. The metal layer is formed above the substrate layer. The
operational block is formed in the substrate layer and the metal layer, and is
definable by a two-dimensional boundary. The operational block includes a
plurality of operational logic gates, a first subgroup of spare logic gates, a second
subgroup of spare logic gates, operational wiring and spare gate wiring. The
operational logic gates, the first subgroup and the second subgroup are formed
on the substrate layer, with the first subgroup being spaced from the second
subgroup. The operational wiring is routed into the metal layer and
interconnects the operational logic gates to configure the operational block to
perform a desired operation. The spare gate wiring is similarly routed into the
metal layer. The spare gate wiring is separate from the operational wiring, and
connects at least one of the first subgroup logic gates to at least one of the
second subgroup logic gates. In a preferred embodiment, a plurality of metal
layers are provided, and a spacing between the subgroups dictates that the spare
gate wiring, as formed by an automatic routing tool, extends to the outer metal
layers where it is accessible by a focused ion beam device.

Abstract: A covering for soft furnishing is impregnated with an insecticide,
such as permethrin. The concentration of permethrin is sufficient to kill
house dust mites and deter larger insects such as fleas and ticks. The
insecticide is released from the covering over an operational period so as to
encourage the absorption of the insecticide into surrounding soft
furnishings. The covering is manufactured from machined fabric, such as
knitted voile, having interstices sufficiently small to reduce the rate of
insecticide release over the operational period.

Abstract: The invention concerns the maintenance of a fast setting and removal equipment set (1-6, 11), substitutable by standard replacements, provided with individual electronic circuits (1a, 6a, 20a-23a, 30a-32a, 11a) monitoring proper functioning providing, at their level, a BITE (Built-In Test Equipment) function for failure testing and diagnosing and for transmitting a failure message by data transmission to a central maintenance computer (7) itself preparing a report on the global operating condition of the equipment set. More particularly, the invention concerns the hardware parts of the electronic circuits monitoring the proper functioning which are integral with the equipment (1-6) or part of the equipment (20-23, 30-32) and which are provided with a non-volatile storage (405) and means for detecting, selecting and recording (403, 413, 423) in their non-volatile storage units (405), the report prepared by the central maintenance computer (7). Since those hardware parts of the circuits monitoring the proper functioning track the problems of parts of equipment or equipment with which they are integral, they provide on a permanent basis, in a repair centre, together with a component removed for repair, the latest report on the global operating condition of the equipment set which is often the cause of removal, thereby facilitating the establishment of a repair diagnosis.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un système permettant à enregistrer et à extraire des informations, permettant à des données d'être saisies d'une manière flexible et non restreinte. Un utilisateur du système entre des occurrences de données sous la forme d'éléments isolés appelés 'entités'. Une déclaration de certaines informations arbitraires peut être faite grâce à la spécification selon laquelle trois occurrences de données existant sous le forme d'entités sont liées, par utilisation d'une structure appelée un attribut. Chaque entité comprend un identifiant unique de sorte que les entités qui prennent des valeurs identiques peuvent être distinguées, ce qui permet la constitution de déclarations d'informations distinctes et indépendantes. La nature de la déclaration contenue dans l'attribut est laissée à la personne saisissant les données afin de les spécifier ou des les laisser non spécifiées. Les attributs reçoivent également un identifiant unique, et d'autres attributs peuvent ainsi leur faire référence dans une déclaration d'informations. Un attribut comprend trois identifiants uniques associés soit à des entités soit à d'autres attributs, et sert à déclarer des informations par activation d'une relation entre les données contenues dans trois entrées ou plus. Une recherche peut être faite sur l'ensemble d'entités enregistré afin de trouver celles qui correspondent à un terme de recherche donné, et une réponse peut être obtenue. De plus, les résultats de deux recherches ou plus peuvent être traités en fonction d'un état de saisie d'un utilisateur afin d'obtenir une multitude de données connexes.
