Abstract: A secure front-end communication system which couples a plurality of actively redundant process control computers to a computer network. The system includes a front end computer which is capable of establishing time limited communication contracts with one or more computer entity on the computer network. Each time limited communication contract is based upon an acceptable response to the transmission of an unpredictable signal from the front end computer, such as an encrypted transformation of a pseudo-random number generated by the front end computer. A security table is used to identify the network entities that are permitted to send write command messages to the process control computers to which the front end computer is connected. The front end computer also includes at least one permissive table which is used to determine whether a write command message from the network entity should be transmitted to the process control computer for which the message was intended.

as pictures and a transmitting apparatus and a receiving
apparatus for this signal, wherein transmitting a limited
information signal, a signal for showing an area to which the
limited information signal is applied, and a control signal
for controlling the display are transmitted, permits
transmitting information closely linked to the area of
subscribers and displaying this information at a
predetermined time to realize a transmission of information
effective for subscribers and increase convenience of the
subscribers. Further, transmitting following frequency
multiplexing or time-axis multiplexing the main information
signal and the limited information signal and multiplexing

Abstract: The present invention aims at realizing with a simple
structure a differential gear capable of arbitrarily
producing a difference in speed of rotation between output
side rotary members. When a difference in speed of rotation
occurs between drive shafts 3 and 4, if clutches 12 and 17
are disconnected, a first input side sun gear 8 and a first
output side sun gear 9 are allowed to rotate at arbitrary
speed ratios independently of each other due to the rotation
and the revolution of first planetary gears 10, besides a
second input side sun gear 13 and a second output side sun
gear 14 are allowed to rotate at arbitrary speed ratios
independently of each other due to the rotation and the
revolution of second planetary gears 15. When the first
clutch 12 for example is brought into connection, the
revolution of the first planetary gears 10 is controlled.
Thus, by setting appropriately the gear ratio between the
sun gears 8, 9 and gears 10a, 10b of the first planetary gear
10, the drive shaft 3 on one hand is allowed to rotate faster
than the drive shaft 4 on the other.

data representing a three-dimensional travel path of a
probe 32b which has a symmetrical shape with respect to
an axis of rotational symmetry and which travels along
the inner peripheral groove (44a) of the rim (44) in
contact therewith, an envelope of the travel path of

the edge of the probe is calculated, based on data
representing the shapes of the inner peripheral groove
and the probe and the data representing the three-dimensional
travel path of the probe, and the bottom
contour of the inner peripheral groove is obtained by
shifting the envelope in a normal direction by the

Abstract: A memory transistor and a select transistor are disposed
side by side on a semiconductor substrate between
source/drain diffusion layers thereof, with an intermediate
diffusion layer interposed therebetween. The memory transistor
includes: a gate insulating film having such a thickness
as to allow tunneling current to pass therethrough; a floating
gate electrode; an interelectrode insulating film; and a control
gate electrode. The select transistor includes a gate insulating
film and a select gate electrode. Tunneling current,
allowing electrons to pass through the gate insulating film
under the floating gate electrode, is utilized during the removal
and injection of electrons from/into the floating gate
electrode. As a result, higher reliability can be attained
and rewriting can be performed at a lower voltage. Also, since
the select transistor is provided, reading can also be performed
at a lower voltage. Improvement of reliability and rewrite
and read operations at respective lower voltages are
realized for a nonvolatile semiconductor memory device, in

Abstract: An image is grouped into levels of blocks of pixels, each particular level, except a top level, providing a subdivision of each block of pixels of a next higher level into a respective matrix of blocks of pixels of that particular level. An image source transfers pixel values of all of the pixels to an image receiver like a display device on a block by block basis. The blocks in each respective matrix are transferred consecutively without intervening transfer of pixel values of pixels from other blocks from the same level. This renders possible interchangeable use of image receivers with mutually different resolutions, without requiring a change in the way the pixel values are transferred and without requiring a memory in the image receiver for pixel values that are transferred between the pixel values for one block.
