IPC: H04B10/29

Abstract: Substantially error-free communications is achieved in an optical communication system
that includes optical amplifiers by detecting bits transmitted in the amplified optical signal using a
detection threshold that is derived as a function of a maximum power level associated with a first
bit value, e.g., bit "0", and a minimum power level associated with a second bit value, e.g., bit
"1". Importantly, this detection scheme can be used to accurately detect bit patterns in the
amplified signal even in the presence of nonlinear distortions caused by gain variations, such as
inter-modal distortion and saturation induced crosstalk. In a wavelength division multiplexed
(WDM) system comprising semiconductor optical amplifiers, for example, the detection threshold
can be set at a level corresponding to P TOTAL /2N, where P TOTAL  represents the total power in the
WDM signal and N represents the number of optical channels in the WDM signal. According to
another aspect of the invention, the effect of gain fluctuations becomes smaller as the number of
channels increase. In particular, a smoothing effect is realized for the total effective saturation
power as gain variations decrease as a function of an increase in the number of channels. As such,
the performance of a semiconductor optical amplifier according to the principles of the invention
approaches the linear performance of fiber amplifiers as the number of channels increases.

Abstract: A call center is configured such that voice prompts provided to a given caller are
modified based on prior e-mail notifications or other non-telephonic communications
between the call center and that caller. In an illustrative embodiment, information regarding
at least one previous non-telephonic communication with a given caller is stored in a
database or other memory accessible to the call center. When the given caller places a
subsequent call to the call center, the call center retrieves the stored information for that
caller, and selects voice prompts for the caller based at least in part on the e-mails or other
non-telephonic communications previously sent to the caller. The call is then routed to an
appropriately-skilled agent based at least in part on a response of the caller to the voice
prompt. Additional information relating to the previous non-telephonic communication,
e.g., a copy or summary of the communication, may be transmitted to the agent that receives
the call.

Abstract: Additional recording data is written continuously with
data already recorded on a disk and writing of additional data
is started in synch with recorded data. The optical head 1
reads data recorded on the disk just before recording is
halted every time the record decision unit 22 judges that
recording is to be halted. The record-status detection unit
25 detects the formation status of the recorded data. The
head output control unit 14 sets the luminous output of the
optical head 1 at the beginning of additional writing
according to the recording state judged by the record-state
detection unit 25. Thus, the formation status of data
recorded on a disk is detected to allow the luminous output of
the optical head 1 to be set to an optimum record level.

Abstract: Apparatus for visualizing slices of transitive closures of entities having dependence relationships with one another. A preferred embodiment visualizes slices of programs. A display in a computer system includes reduced representations of the files, procedures, and lines making up a program. The user employs a pointing device to interactively select a reduced representation as the slice point and the apparatus computes the slice and changes the color of the reduced representations in the slice. The color of the reduced representation indicates the distance of the entity represented by the reduced representation from the slice point. The display may be rearranged so that files and procedures are ordered by distance from the slice point. Other aspects of the display include scaling the size of the reduced representation of a procedure to indicate the number of lines in the procedure and filling the reduced representation of the procedure according to the number of lines belonging to the slice which are contained in the procedure. A user may select open and closed representations of procedures. The open representation of a procedure contains reduced representations of the lines in the procedure. The apparatus also includes a viewer for viewing the text of lines in the program.

cylindrical member with an outer bushing unit (16), an
interior bushing unit (18), an upper control unit (20), an
expanding unit (22), and a locking mechanism (24). The outer
bushing unit (16) receives the grinding sleeve (50), and has a
first outer diameter of D, and a height H. The interior
bushing unit (18) receives a rotatable shaft, has a second
outer diameter of I, which is less than D, and a height
J, which is less than H. The expanding unit (22) extends
from within the upper control unit (20) and between the outer
and interior bushing (16,18) units with protrusions (28) below the
outer and interior bushing (16,18) units. The locking mechanism (26)
is interconnected to the upper control unit (20). And when
the locking mechanism (26) is in the unlocked position, a
grinding sleeve (50), which can have diamonds thereon, can be
placed on or taken off the outer bushing unit (16) and the
device can be placed on or taken off a rotatable shaft.
Obviously, when the locking mechanism (26) is in the locked

Abstract: The telecine display method calculates a first timing
signal based on the refresh rate of a video signal having a
telecine conversion applied from an original picture image
of a film source, and a second timing signal based on the
refresh rate of the original picture image of the film
source. And, the method applies the 2-3 pull-down
processing to the video signal in synchronization with the
first timing signal, stores the video signal in a first
memory (4), reads out the video signal from the first memory
on the basis of the second timing signal, and outputs it to
a plasma display module. Thereby, the video signal
presented on the plasma display module (6) is to hold the
refresh rate of the original picture image of the film
source, thus displaying a smooth picture image without
unnaturalness.
