Abstract: Concentric annular ring lens designs are disclosed for astigmatic patients, particularly lens designs which reduce the sensitivity of the patient to toric axis misalignment, thus reducing the required number of stock keeping units in inventory for a toric product. Several of the concentric annular ring lens designs comprise a multifocal concentric annular ring design on either the front or back surface and a toric curve on the reverse surface to correct for astigmatism. Alternating concentric annular rings divide the optical zone of the contact lens into regions having at least two optical powers, a first optical power corresponding to the refractive spherical component of a patient's basic prescription Rx, and a second optical power corresponding to the cylindrical power of a patient's basic prescription Rx, or a portion thereof, with an optional third intermediate optical power, such that the multifocus toric lens is rotationally desensitized because of the enhanced depth-of-field provided by the plurality of concentric annular rings. Some embodiments of the present invention have a spherical front or back surface wherein the opposite surface has a plurality of toric annular rings. Some embodiments of the present invention eliminate a toric surface, prism ballast and slab-off features, and provide spherical optical powers at the basic prescription Rx spherical power, the cylindrical power prescription Rx, and an intermediate optical power intermediate to the spherical and cylindrical optical powers.

Abstract: A compiler that facilitates efficient insertion of explicit data prefetch instructions into loop structures within applications uses simple address expression analysis to determine data prefetching requirements. Analysis and explicit data cache prefetch instruction insertion are performed by the compiler in a machine-instruction level optimizer to provide access to more accurate expected loop iteration latency information. Such prefetch instruction insertion strategy tolerates worst-case alignment of user data structures relative to data cache lines. Execution profiles from previous runs of an application are exploited in the insertion of prefetch instructions into loops with internal control flow. Cache line reuse patterns across loop iterations are recognized to eliminate unnecessary prefetch instructions. The prefetch insertion algorithm is integrated with other low-level optimization phases, such as loop unrolling, register reassociation, and instruction scheduling. An alternative embodiment of the compiler limits the insertion of explicit prefetch instructions to those situations where the lower bound on the achievable loop iteration latency is unlikely to be increased as a result of the insertion.

Abstract: Binding between two members of a recognition pair, e.g. antigen-antibody is determined by utilizing a probe which includes a piezoelectric crystal with electrodes on two opposite faces of the crystal. The crystal carries one or more metal plates which may be the same or different than the electrodes, the metal plates having immobilized thereon a first member of a recognition pair. Binding of a second member of the recognition pair to the first member, or dissociation between the two members and release of the second member from the probe, causes a change of immobilized mass which results in a change to the probe's resonance frequency. The immobilized members may be immobilized on the surface of the metal plates by means of a linking group, having the following general formula (I): Z-R<1>-Q, wherein Z represents a sulphur-containing moiety which is capable of chemical association with, attachment to or chemisorption onto the metal, R<1 >represents a connecting group, Q is a functional group which is capable of forming a covalent bond with a moiety of said first member of the recognition pair.

Abstract: A method for reducing blocking artifacts using a projections onto the
overcomplete basis (POCB) algorithm, and a postprocessor therefor, are provided.
In a conventional method for reducing blocking artifacts, the blocking artifacts are
not completely removed since only the change of pixel values at a block boundary
is considered. In order to solve the problem, an image is postprocessed by a
linear combination of continuous functions with respect to an input decoded image,
considering that an image signal is constructed of continuous two dimensional
planes, in the present invention. The linear coefficients of the continuous
functions are obtained using the POCB algorithm. Accordingly, it is possible to
provide a restored image in which the blocking artifacts are effectively removed, in
areas such as edges and textures as well as in a flat image.
