Abstract: A method is disclosed which informs a user of a data processing system about which of his previous selections in a current data processing session have disabled, or otherwise "affected", selections which would ordinarily be selectable. The method is practiced in a data processing system which includes a central processing unit (CPU), a random access memory (RAM), a means of inputting user selections such as a keyboard and a mouse and a means of displaying the results of such selections to the user. A plurality of program modules and data objects are resident in the memory. Control of the data processing system is mainframed by listing the selections available to the user on series of menus presented on the display means. The CPU instructs the display means to display the menu which corresponds to that particular point in the program. Following the method of the present invention, the CPU has kept track of the selections made by the user. By referring to a special data file which correlates these past selections to the list of actions displayed in the current menu, the CPU determines which of these actions are "affected". These affected actions are then denoted on the menu in some way, e.g., changing the affected action's color, marking the affected actions with a special symbol, etc. Responsive to the user placing the input focus on an affected action, the CPU presents a list of the past selections which cause the action to be affected on the display means. One preferred embodiment of the invention would allow a user to deselect the past selections which cause the action to be affected, and thereby transform the affected action to an unaffected action. The user could then perform the desired action with the remaining past selections.

Abstract: An AGC circuit comprising a first level wave-detecting circuit for wave-detecting received signals having been band-limited having a sensitivity being particularly high for a central frequency of a desired channel and a sensitivity being low for the other frequencies, and a second level wave-detecting circuit for wave-detecting received signal before the band-limitation having a sensitivity being constant irrespective of the frequency. Since the wave-detected signals of these two wave-detecting circuits are mutually added, it is possible to set an optimum detecting sensitivity by the first level wave-detecting signal against adjacent disturbances close to the central frequency of the desired channel, thereby effectively suppressing disturbance signals taking place when the intensity of the electric field of the adjacent disturbing channel. Also, it is possible to set a constant detecting sensitivity by the second level wave-detecting signal against intermodulation disturbance having a detuning degree over a predetermined value, thereby preventing an excessive sensitivity suppression of the frequency of the desired channel caused by an excessive AGC application.

Abstract: In order to generate blue light by means of a laser, a laser diode pumping light source (7, 8, 9) is used in a tuneable laser (1) to couple pumping light into a birefringent, nonlinear crystal (5) via an input mirror (3). By setting the inclination of the crystal (5), or with the aid of a temperature-regulating device (6) for the crystal, the majority of the pumping light is absorbed in the crystal (5) - given suitable polarisation of the pumping light - while the remainder is available for frequency mixing of the fundamental of the laser and the pumping light. Given a fundamental, e.g. 1064 nm and pumping light at a wavelength of, e.g. 806 nm, blue light at a wavelength of, e.g. 459 nm is coupled out via an output mirror (4).

Abstract: A cast-formed bi-metallic worm assembly of a mechanical screw press for expressing liquids from fibrous materials and a method of manufacture therefor and the product produced by the method. The worm assembly is rotatably driven by the press drive shaft and includes an outer flight body having an integral outwardly extending helical flight formed of a relatively brittle, wear-resistant homogeneous cast material and an inner hub tightly fitted and substantially fully mated within, and coextensive with, the outer flight body. The inner hub, cast formed of a more ductile, tougher homogeneous material, includes a hollow cylindrical interior surface structured for slidable engagement around and in driving connection with the drive shaft. The inner hub and outer flight body are securely engaged one to another by cast forming the outer flight body around the precast inner hub. Longitudinal lobes in a smooth undulating in and out clover leaf cross sectional pattern further increase rotational or torsional strength of the worm assembly without appreciably increasing internal operating stress between inner hub and outer flight body.

Abstract: A method and apparatus in an object-oriented development tool kit for accessing location information in a graphic user interface operating environment. The location manager receives a request to access location information from an application in an object-oriented environment in an object-oriented memory location in a memory. If the location access request is for location information, a search of a location tree in the object-oriented environment is made for the presence of location information. If location formation corresponding to the location access request is present, location information corresponding to the location access request is retrieved from the location tree. But if location information corresponding to the location access request is absent from the location tree, a location access message for location information is sent to the graphic user interface operating environment. In response, a message containing location information corresponding to the location access request is received. Next, the location tree is updated with location information corresponding to the location accesss request and a result is returned to the application. If, however, the location access request is for modifying location information, a modification is made by sending a location access message for a modification the graphic user interface environment. A message containing information on the successs of the location access message for a modification is received in response. If the message containing information on the success of the attempting step is positive, the location tree is updated with the modification and the result is returned to the application.
