Abstract: Protruding part 1a, 1b of a mechanism body is connected to a
base frame 2 by screws, and other protruding part is
connected to an auxiliary connecting metal fittings by the
screws. A machining necessary for connecting is conducted
on the protruding portions, the widths of which are wide.
Therefore, a sufficiently long distance can be obtained by
the protruding portions. As a result, the Roberval's parts
4, 5 are not affected by stress strain, which is caused in
the process of connecting, even if a size of an electronic
balance in a longitudinal direction is not extended.
Accordingly, it is possible to realize the compact
electronic balance of high performance in which an accurate
measurement can be made even if a load is given to a
balance pan being biased.

Abstract: One embodiment of the present invention provides a system that facilitates configuring the network interfaces coupling together a group of computers. The system operates by receiving a request at a computer to configure the group of computers into a cluster of computers that function in concert as a single unit. Next, the system establishes whether each network interface within the computer is private or public, wherein a private network interface is used for intercommunications within the cluster of computers and a public network interface is used for communications with client computers. Using the private interconnects, the system determines the connectivity among the plurality of computers. Next, the system calculates a configuration for the cluster of computers. This configuration is presented to an administrator, which allows the administrator to edit the configuration to establish a more desirable configuration. Finally, the cluster of computers is installed using the configuration.

Abstract: A video signal is decomposed (in 12) into a higher
brightness level signal and a lower brightness level signal.
The threshold (T) between higher and lower brightness levels
is adjustable and related to the transition between lower and
higher gain portions of the gamma table for an associated
liquid crystal imager. The lower brightness level signal is
slew rate limited (in 22) to reduce the difference in
brightness between adjacent pixels. The higher brightness
level signal is delayed (in 24) in time to match the
processing delay through the slew rate limiter. The delay
matched signal and the slew rate limited signal are combined
(in 26) to form a modified video signal less likely to result
in sparkle artifacts in the imager. Sparkle reduction
processing can be applied to luminance signals and to video
drive signals in various combinations, based on independently
selectable thresholds (Fig. 4).

Abstract: An optical coaxial hybrid transmission system capable of

making any substantial changes to a transmission path of the
existing system is provided. In this system, m-channel
communications signals having frequencies of f1 to f m  (Hz)
corresponding to micro-cells (51) are converted into optical
signals having different wavelengths by communications signal
optical transmitters (102). These optical signals are
wavelength-multiplexed by a communications signal wavelength
multiplexer (103), and then wavelength-multiplexed by a
video/communications signal wavelength multiplexer (104) with an
optical signal modulated with a video signal. The resultant
wavelength-multiplexed optical signal is transmitted to a
node (30). In the node (30), the wavelength-multiplex optical
signal is demultiplexed, and the video signal and the
communications signals are frequency-multiplexed for
transmission to the corresponding micro-cells (51).

ripples associated with a time spur at TD' away from the main signal of the
second filter (12b) cancel the group delay and pass band ripples associated with
a time spur at TD away from the main signal of the first filter (12a) because: 1)

from those of the first filter (12a); 2) the center frequency (f 0 ') of the second filter
(12b) is offset from the center frequency (f 0 ) of the first filter (12a); 3) the
perturbation region (P1) of the first filter (12a) is different from the perturbation
region (P2) of the second filter (12b) or 3) a combination of 1), 2) and/or 3. The
associated time spur echo of the cascaded response will also be canceled. Also,
time spurs due to reflections from the ends of the input and output transducers of
the first and second filters (12a, 12b) can be cancelled by adding dummy fingers
(36a, 37a) at each end of the input and output transducers of the second filter.
