Abstract: A mechanical sensor, comprising a ferromagnetic layer having magnetostriction 13, a ferromagnetic layer having magneto-resistance effect 15, a magnetic field generating means (12, 14) which excites these ferromagnetic layers, and a substrate 11 which supports all these elements integrally, can be attained, which is small, thin, highly sensitive, and is capable of integration, by detecting a change of magnetic flux density passing through the ferromagnetic layers resulting from a change of magnetic properties caused by stress as a change of resistance value arising from magneto-resistance effect at input-output terminals 16a, 16b. As a result, a small, thin, and highly sensitive mechanical sensor can be provided using stress magnetic effect. Furthermore, based on the anisotropy of detection sensitivity, intensity of the stress along a certain direction can be detected selectively.

Abstract: An object to be cleaned is cleaned with an cleaning agent which mixes a base cleaning agent such as silicon-containing cleaning agent or an isoparaffin containing cleaning agent with a surfactant or a hydrophilic solvent to promote the cleaning power. The object is rinsed with the base cleaning agent alone after it goes through the first cleaning step as described above. Then, this is followed by the finishing treatment by the use of hot air or steam drying. The base cleaning agents can be recovered and recycled, improving economy in the case with the use of two or more cleaning agents in combination. The excellent properties of degreasing and dewatering, comparable to those of flon system, can be obtained using a mixture of silicon-containing or isoparaffin-containing cleaning agents with surfactants and hydrophilic solvents and maintaining safety in environment.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a data acquisition apparatus for use as a diagnostic tool in isolating the cause of chronic dropped telecommunication calls. The apparatus monitors electrical signals associated with multiple telecommunication trunks. It recognizes each occurrence of a terminated call based upon loop current cessation of a duration greater than a pre-determined time interval. Each occurrence of a terminated call, as well as electrical data indicative of which equipment terminated the call, is time-stamped and recorded. The apparatus also time-stamps and records data regarding additional electrical events based upon pre-determined ranges of current and voltage. It creates a chronological log of the recorded data. The apparatus interprets the recorded data and provides an easily intelligible message indicating which equipment terminated a particular call. The recorded data and the messages can then be conveniently analyzed by technicians or other personnel on a display screen to determine which equipment dropped a call and to identify significant trends regarding dropped calls. The apparatus functions in a manner that is transparent to a customer so that it does not interfere with the customer's usage of the equipment being monitored.

Abstract: Quantitative determination and evaluation of the flavor stability of fermented alcoholic beverages are performed by measuring the changes of the amounts of spin adduct from the formation behavior of active oxygen with passage of time using an ESR apparatus and either determining the value on the time axis of the inflection point of changes of the amounts of spin adduct (defined as the active oxygen formation lag time) or determining the amount of spin adduct after a predetermined time has elapsed after the start of measurement (defined as the active oxygen formation activity). The longer the active oxygen formation lag time or the lower the active oxygen formation activity, the greater the oxygen resistance of the fermented alcoholic beverage, thus making it possible to evaluate that fermented alcoholic beverage as having good flavor stability. In addition, if the formation behavior of active oxygen of semi-finished products in the production process is measured in the same manner, the quality of flavor stability when that semi-finished product has become a finished product can be predicted and evaluated.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for managing relationships among objects in a distributed object environment includes a method and apparatus for determining whether two or more object references refer to identical objects; a method and apparatus for providing a unique identifier for an object; a method and apparatus for checking role types for the formation of relationships; and a method and apparatus for caching role and object locations in roles in a relationship. In the method and apparatus for determining whether two or more object references refer to the same object, a unique object identifier is compared to determine if the objects referred to by the object references are identical. The unique identifier is provided by concatenating information identifying the machine address of the process that created the object in addition to the process ID, the time of creation and a process counter. In the method and apparatus for checking role types, information including the number of roles and is passed to a relationship factory which determines whether the number, types and cardinality of the roles passed to the factory are consistent with the relationship object to be created. The method and apparatus also includes caching of object references and roles for objects related to a given object in that object's role. The methods and apparatus of the invention thus provide valuable tools for managing relationship among objects in a distributed object environment efficiently.

Abstract: In a messaging system such as a voice message system, message retrieval is restricted to authorised users by the need to dial a PIN following the telephone number for access to the system. 
     For environments in which no post dial signalling is available, such as when pulse dialling is used, the system recognises a specific prefix to the number being dialled, and allows reception of additional dialled digits, which constitute the PIN, before generation of a "dialled digits complete" signal. The received PIN associated with the user's number is then compared with data held in a store (20), and message retrieval is enabled only if the comparison is positive. 
     A facility may be provided for users to change their PINs. 
     The additional digits may instead be used for transmission to called parties, the digits signifying corresponding standard phrases.
