Abstract: An electric vacuum cleaner of the present invention
includes a housing having a fluid suction port and a motor-driven
blower accommodated in the housing so as to be
capable of sucking a fluid from the fluid suction port, to
AC-drive the motor-driven blower by an inverter circuit.
The inverter circuit has a plurality of switching elements
and AC-drives the motor-driven blower according to
periodical switching between these switching elements,
based on detected value of physical quantity detecting
means which detects physical quantities related to the
electric vacuum cleaner. The switching elements of the
inverter circuit are driven by a drive circuit which drives
the switching elements according to input pulse signal. The
pulse signal input into the drive circuit is generated by
an inverter control circuit for use in the motor-driven
blower for the electric vacuum cleaner, and be input into
the drive circuit. The inverter control circuit includes
means for setting a period in which a rotation velocity of
the motor-driven blower is calculated, means for performing
interrupt processing including a calculation of the
rotation velocity of the motor-driven blower based on the
detected value of the physical quantity detecting means,
and means for generating the pulse signal according to a
carrier wave having a period shorter than a period in which 
the rotation velocity of the motor-driven blower is
calculated, and longer than the time required to perform
interrupt processing including the calculation of the
rotation velocity of the motor-drive blower, and inputting
the pulse signal into the drive circuit. Thus, it is
possible to control the rotation velocity of the motor
excellent in response. Therefore, even if the electric
vacuum cleaner being in use in the highest operation mode,
for example, undergoes a sudden fluid load variation and
the rotation velocity of the rotor of the motor abruptly
changes due to the fluid load variation, the width of the
pulse outputted from the inverter controller changes
quickly and the rotation velocity of the rotor is promptly
returned to a desired rotation velocity. Therefore, the
time spent on an unpleasant sound produced due to the
change in rotation velocity becomes short, and discomfort
given to a user can be lessened.

Abstract: A method, system, apparatus, and computer program product is presented for improving the execution performance of an application in a data processing system. Instrumentation code is inserted into an application in which the instrumentation code generates trace data for method entry events and method exit events when the instrumented application is executed. The trace output data that is generated by the instrumentation code is then analyzed to detect patterns which indicate an inefficient coding construct in the application. The source code for the inefficient coding construct in the application associated with the detected pattern may be modified according to indications provided to an application developer. For example, a specific inefficient coding construct may be an inefficient use of a cross-language boundary, such as the interface between Java code and native code, in which data is inefficiently transferred across the interface through a local array in the native code. A suggested transform for efficient use of a cross-language boundary may include the use of a reference to a Java object within the native code.

of an intake air pressure Pim detected by a pressure sensor and
an intake air temperature Tim detected by a temperature sensor,
and an actual intake air amount GF is detected by an air flow meter.
A temporary abnormality judgment is made as to whether the value
obtained by subtracting the actual intake air amount GF from the
calculation intake air amount GP, i.e., GP - GF, is larger than
a predetermined value α. When the condition of the temporary
abnormality judgment is satisfied continuously for a predetermined
period of time, and further, repeatedly a predetermined number of
times, it is determined that there is some abnormality in the intake
system.

Abstract: Error diffusion halftoning systems and methods propagate the error both within a
color layer and between the color layer being halftoned and subsequent color layers yet to be
halftoned. Threshold array halftoning systems and methods diffuse error to subsequent color
layers after a color layer has been halftoned using a threshold array. A color continuous tone
image is separated into color layers. A plurality of weighting factors are selected that control
how error is diffused to subsequent color layers as each color layer is halftoned. A first color
layer is halftoned using error diffusion or threshold array halftoning. An error layer is
generated from the first halftoned color layer and the first color layer. A modified second
continuous tone color layer is generated based on at least one error layer and the
corresponding weighting factor. That modified second continuous tone color layer is then
halftoned and the process is repeated.

Abstract: A system and method for providing computerized, knowledge-based
medical diagnostic advice. The medical advice is provided to the general
public over a network, such as a telephone network with the use of a
telephone or the Internet with the use of an Internet access device.
Alternatively, the medical advice can be provided to a patient in a stand-alone
mode by use of a computer. The invention utilizes a list-based processing
method of generating and executing diagnostic scripts. For the purpose of
diagnosing a health problem of a patient, medical knowledge is organized into
a list of the diseases to be considered. Each disease on the disease list
includes a list of symptoms that is checked in a patient. Each symptom on the
symptom list is then further described as a response to a list of one or more
questions asked of the patient about the symptom. This triply-nested list
structure is converted by suitable data structure transformations into a script
that is stored. When a patient requires diagnosis, the script is played back as a
sequence of questions. The responses of the patient are analyzed and
converted into symptoms. The symptoms are accumulated into diseases.
Finally the diseases are selected and reported as a diagnosis.
