Abstract: In a microprocessor, an apparatus is included for coordinating the use of physical registers in the microprocessor. Upon receiving an instruction, the coordination apparatus extracts source and destination logical registers from the instruction. For the destination logical register, the apparatus assigns a physical address to correspond to the logical register. In so doing, the apparatus stores the former relationship between the logical register and another physical register. Storing this former relationship allows the apparatus to backstep to a particular instruction when an execution exception is encountered. Also, the apparatus checks the instruction to determine whether it is a speculative branch instruction. If so, then the apparatus creates a checkpoint by storing selected state information. This checkpoint provides a reference point to which the processor may later backup if it is determined that a speculated branch was incorrectly predicted. Overall, the apparatus coordinates the use of physical registers in the processor in such a way that: (1) logical/physical register relationships are easily changeable; and (2) backup and backstep procedures are accommodated.

Abstract: Metal hydrides are activated by an electrochemical procedure. In this procedure, a bulk sample of the corresponding metal is immersed in an aqueous electrolyte and contacted by a cathode, Current passed through the aqueous electrolyte causes electrolysis of the water and a concomitant reaction with the formation of metal hydride. As a result, the metal hydride is fractured and smaller particles result. Additionally, the resulting metal hydride has a substantial amount of absorbed hydrogen. A novel plating method, taking advantage of the reducing power of hydrogen absorbed in a metal hydride, is useful to encapsulate such metal hydride with a variety of metals. Therefore, such hydrides are uniformly coated by using plating solutions without the standard reducing agent and stabilizer.

Abstract: An injection molding system for a metal alloy includes a feeder in which the metal alloy is melted and a barrel in which the liquid metal alloy is converted into a thixotropic state. An accumulation chamber draws in the metal alloy in the thixotropic state through a valve disposed in an opening between the barrel and the accumulation chamber. The valve selectively opens and closes the opening in response to a pressure differential between the accumulation chamber and the barrel. After the metal alloy in the thixotropic state is drawn in, it is injected through an exit port provided on the accumulation chamber. The exit port has a variable heating device disposed around it. This heating device cycles the temperature near the exit port between an upper limit and a lower limit. The temperature is cycled to an upper limit when the metal alloy in the thixotropic state is injected and to a lower limit when the metal alloy in the thixotropic state is drawn into the accumulation chamber from the barrel.

Abstract: An improvement to calibration and quality assurance of an ultrasonic bone analysis apparatus is achieved by using phantoms. A received ultrasound signal that passed through a first phantom is used as a baseline for calculating BUA. The first phantom has an attenuation-versus-frequency profile that is substantially flat in a frequency range of 200 to 1000 kHz and a sound impedance that approximates that of soft human tissue. A propagation time of the signal is used to calibrate a zero point of the apparatus. A second phantom has an attenuation in a frequency range of 200-1000 kHz which approximates that of a human foot, including an attenuation-versus-frequency profile that is substantially linear in the frequency range of 200-600 kHz and is approximately 1 dB/MHz per mm. A received ultrasound signal that passed through the second phantom is used to calibrate the apparatus for a BUA calculation, and can also be used for at least one of determining and correcting a drift of the apparatus. A third phantom has a predetermined SOS that is substantially independent of temperature. A received ultrasound signal that passed through the third phantom is used to calibrate the apparatus for a SOS calculation, and can also be used for at least one of determining and correcting instrument drift. An ultrasonic signal is transmitted through mutually touching transducer pads. The received signal is used as a baseline for calculating BUA. A measurement of the propagation time of the received signal is compared with a temporally-proximate measurement of an ultrasonic signal that passed through a patient's heel to determine a time of propagation through the heel.

Abstract: A cryptographic framework consists of four basic service elements that include a
national flag card, a cryptographic unit, a host system, and a network security
server. Three of the four service elements have a fundamentally hierarchical
relationship. The National Flag Card (NFC) is installed into the Cryptographic
Unit (CU) which, in turn, is installed into a Host System (HS). Cryptographic
functions on the Host System cannot be executed without a Cryptographic Unit,
which itself requires the presence of a valid National Flag Card before it's
services are available. The fourth service element, a Network Security Server
(NSS), can provide a range of different security services including verification of
the other three service elements. Several different configurations that support
policy within a cryptographic system allow the framework to be adapted to
various connection schemes involving, at least, the cryptographic unit and the
policy, including dedicated applications,  e . g . a policy provided in a
cryptographic unit having either a built-in or local smart card reader, or a policy
in a remote smart card reader; and shared applications,  e . g . a policy provided

Abstract: There is disclosed a process for producing highly pure
terephthalic acid by the use of a dispersion medium
replacement apparatus equipped with a stirring unit at the
bottom portion for uniform dispersion, wherein an original
slurry comprising a first dispersion medium and terephthalic
acid crystals is introduced into a dispersion medium
replacement apparatus at the top portion, a second dispersion
medium is introduced into the apparatus at the bottom
portion, a replaced slurry comprising principally the second
dispersion medium and the terephthalic acid crystals is taken
out from the apparatus at the bottom portion, and the first
dispersion medium as a major component is taken out from the
apparatus at the top portion, which process comprises
maintaining a uniformly dispersed slurry at the bottom
portion of the apparatus at a concentration higher than that
of a slurry at the intermediate portion; maintaining the
upper portion at a higher temperature in a vertical
temperature distribution therein to form a temperature change
zone; and controlling the feed rate of the second dispersion
medium and/or the takeout rate of the replaced slurry
according to the location of the temperature change zone. By
virtue of the specific control system, that is, taking
advantage of the temperature change zone, the apparatus can
be steadily operated with ease and high reliability at a high
replacement efficiency, and thus highly pure terephthalic
acid is stably obtained.
