Abstract: The hammer is meant to reduce the noise pollution
produced by the vibrations generated by the work of the
tool (5). This is achieved by hot-pouring a polyurethane

Abstract: A semiconductor memory cell comprising a first transistor of a first conductivity type for read-out (TR1), a second transistor of a second conductivity type for write-in (TR2) and a junction-field-effect transistor of the first conductivity type for current control (TR3). A potential of the channel forming region (CH1) of the first transistor (TR1) when information "0" is read out is different from that when formation "1" is read out. As a result, the threshold voltage of the first transistor (TR1) changes, depending upon whether the stored information is "0" or "1". 
Therefore, when the stored information is "0", the first transistor (TR1) is brought into an on-state. When the stored information is "1", on the other hand, the first transistor (TR1) is brought into an off-state. The first transistor (TR1) is controlled by the junction-field-effect transistor (TR3) on the basis of the bias conditions of the gate portions of the junction-field-effect transistor (TR3) which are constituted of, for example the third region (SC3) and the fifth region (SC5). That is, when the stored information is "0", the junction-field-effect transistor (TR3) is brought into an on-state. When the stored information is "1", on the other hand, the junction-field-effect transistor (TR3) is brought into an off-state. 
In the above manner, the first transistor (TR1) can be brought into an on-state or an off-state with a high degree of reliability depending upon the stored information. 
In operation to write "0" by setting the potential of the write-in information setting line at V0 or write "1" by setting the potential of the write-in information setting line at V1, the potential of the first memory-cell-selecting line is set at VW (< 0). The potential of the channel forming region (CH1) of the first transistor (TR1) is V0 when information "0" is written in, or, V1 or VW-VTH2 when information "1" is written in. It should be noted that so-called refresh operation is carried out before the potential of the channel forming region (CH1) of the first transistor (TR1) changes with the lapse of time to cause an error in operation to read out the information. 
When a region (SC7) containing a high concentration of an impurity having the first conductivity type (for example, n++-type) is formed between the first region (SC1) and the third region (SC3) in the semiconductor memory cell of Example 1, a potential or an electric charge stored in the channel forming region (CH1) of the first transistor (TR1) can be increased.

Abstract: A method for generating a tree structure representation of a generalized graph
structure for display includes the more important links in the representation. Usage
parameters are referenced in generating the tree structure from the generalized
graph structure. Frequency, recency, spacing of accesses, and path information are
exemplary types of usage parameters. A breadth-first or depth-first traversal of the
graph references usage parameters associated with each node or link. The usage
parameters which are associated with each node are referenced in order to
determine the visitation order. The visitation order is determined by visiting the
highest used nodes or links first. A method of displaying the tree structure
references the usage parameters to determine the positioning of the nodes in the
layout of the tree structure. In a preferred embodiment, the root node is positioned
in the center of the layout. In one example, sibling nodes are spread out on links
which emanate radially about their parent. The highest-used sibling nodes can be
placed farthest apart from each other so as to achieve optimal separation so that
they have the most growth space. The lowest-used nodes are then placed in the
remaining space between the high-usage nodes. In another example, sibling nodes
are positioned at the same radius from the root node. Each leaf node in the
hierarchy is assigned the same amount of angular space. The layout angle of each
node is a function of the ranking of the node's usage parameter relative to its
siblings. Derived usage parameters such as need probability, cocitation clustering,
or functions of both node and link usages can alternatively be referenced.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of increasing the
availability of an application executed by a computer system.
More particularly, the invention relates to a method of
increasing the availability of an application executed by one
or more application clients and a multitude of application
servers executing the same application. 
     The fundamental teaching comprises a multi-casting step
wherein an application client is requesting execution of an
application service by sending an identical application
service request to a collection of N out of M application
servers with 1 < N ≤ M in parallel. 
     Within an application server, preceding the application
service execution step, an "only-once" determination step is
suggested, for determining whether an application service
request must not be executed more than once without
jeopardizing application consistency. For such a case the
taught method provides "only-once" execution behavior.
