Abstract: A memory for storing data in a computer system. Integrity of data transferred to or from a memory array is monitored by transferring two sets of EDC or ECC data corresponding to a longword of data between the memory array and two separate memory controllers. The probability of an undetected error is very low because the two sets of EDC or ECC data are compared to ensure that they match. The number of lines and pins used is minimized by multiplexing the EDC or ECC data with address signals and cycle type signals. The address and cycle type signals are placed on the time division multiplexed bidirectional lines at the beginning of a memory transfer cycle, and the EDC or ECC data is placed on these time division multiplexed lines at times when a longword of data is being transferred on a set of bidirectional data lines.

Abstract: A method of encoding speech includes a limited search of a tree-code excitation codebook with a closed loop gain calculation for each test path under consideration. The gain calculation occurs when minimizing an error distance measurement between a synthetic signal defined by each test path being considered and the appropriate speech signal by optimizing a scaling factor of the synthetic signal. The encoding method achieves a significant reduction in computational complexity with minimal loss of performance.

Abstract: The laboratory dyeing of samples made of cloth runs must correspond to the continuous dyeing conditions encountered in practice, in order to achieve comparable dyeing results. For this, provision is made to join the sample piece to form a tube and to push it onto a roller which continues to rotate not only during application of the dye but also during the steaming operation. For executing this dyeing-steaming cycle in the laboratory, it is advisable to arrange the dyeing roller on a swivel lever which is pivotable from a dyeing position below the dye application apparatus into a steaming position below a steamer hood. For steaming, the steamer hood merely requires to be moved downwards, in order to immerse the dyeing roller completely in the steam atmosphere.

Abstract: A control system for a diesel internal combustion engine is proposed. This system comprises a first adjusting device (80), which determines the start of fuel injection and a second adjusting device (120), which determines the quantity of fuel to be injected. A governor compares (70) a reference value (SBS) for the start of injection with an actual value (SBI) for the start of injection and actuates the first adjusting device (80) as a function of this control difference. On an open loop control circuit a differential injection start (DSB) is determined from the difference between an anticipated value (SBIi) for the start of injection and the actual value (SBI) for the start of injection. <IMAGE>

Abstract: An operational amplifier is provided with an improved frequency compensation circuit, wherein a first compensation circuit (112, 114) inserts a first dominant pole at a first predetermined frequency for decreasing the magnitude of the output signal of the operational amplifier with increasing frequency, while a second compensation circuit (100, 106, 108) inserts a pole and a zero at second and third predetermined higher frequencies in the transfer function of the operational amplifier, respectively, for stabilizing the first compensation circuit and ensuring the stability of the operational amplifier over the operational bandwidth. The pole and zero of the second compensation circuit inserts a positive phase shift about the third predetermined frequency effectively extending the phase response of the operational amplifier and allowing the frequency of the first dominate pole to be increased without sacrificing phase and gain margin. The higher frequency of the dominate pole provided by the first compensation circuit increases the gain-bandwidth product of the operational amplifier thereby improving its overall performance.

Abstract: There is provided a method and device for automatically aligning the proximal edges of two or more appreciably magnetic sheets to be connected along abutting edges. The device preferably includes supports to align the magnetic sheets in substantially planar relationship aligned relative one another with their proximal edges oriented in approximately abutting relationship and generally aligned along a predetermined contiguous seam line. At least one of the sheets is to remain moveable on the supports relative to the other sheets. The alignment device further preferably includes an electromagnetic mechanism for simultaneously creating an effective north pole along the proximal edge of one of the supported sheets, and an effective south pole along the confronting proximal edge of the other sheet. These opposing poles cause a magnetic attraction between the proximal edges of the sheets which automatically pulls and aligns the proximal edges into intimate contact along their length. Once aligned in intimate contact, it is preferred that all of these sheets be restrained from further movement so that optimal welding procedures can be completed.
