Abstract: A second-harmonic generating apparatus comprises a laser diode (20), a tunable reflector (40) and a SHG element (32). The laser diode provides light at a fundamental wavelength. The relector forms a resonator with one of end-facet (24) of the laser diode so that the laser diode oscillates. The SHG element (32) is disposed between the laser diode and the reflector, and produces a second-harmonic whilst the fundamental wave propagates in it. The tunable reflector (40) in one embodiment comprises a grating which selects a wavelength for the fundamental wave that causes the laser diode to oscillate with a wavelength satisfying a phase matching condition of the SHG element, so as to maximise production of the second harmonic. As an alternative to the grating (40) a prism and a reflector can be used for wavelength selection.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for optimizing cost-based heuristic instruction scheduling for a pipelined processor is disclosed which has particular application to compile time instruction scheduling after code generation. Instruction scheduling is optimized by determining the optimal weights to be used by an apparatus for cost based heuristic instruction scheduling for a particular pipelined processor. The optimal weights are determined based on the lowest of the lowest costs incurred by different collections of interrelated weight sets. Each collection of interrelated weight sets comprises a randomly generated initial weight set and subsequent interrelated weight sets generated in a predetermined manner. The predetermined manner for generating subsequent weight sets facilitates rapid identification of the optimal weight set for a collection, and thereby rapid identification of the overall optimal weight set for the collections.

Abstract: A circuit is provided that reduces the electromagnetic emissions from an integrated circuit. The circuit includes the resistive portion of an intrinsic low pass filter network (26) and a means for modulating the resistance in response to switching of the integrated circuit nucleus logic elements. The resistance is increased before the nucleus logic elements switch and is gradually decreased upon completion of all switching of the nucleus logic elements. A portion of the transient switching pulse waveform, normally provided by the external power supply, is instead provided by the intrinsic nucleus capacitance (25) associated with the nucleus logic. In particular the high frequency components are sourced by the intrinsic nucleus capacitance (23). The amplitude and the rise time of the transient switching pulse is thereby reduced. Further reduction in electromagnetic emission is provided by modified output buffers (32) where transient switching waveforms are reduced by current limiting the output switching transistors and providing initial transient current from the intrinsic capacitance associated with the output buffer.

Abstract: In a control apparatus for measuring, mixing or regulating one or more liquids in some other way, the liquid or liquids is/are delivered to a vessel (1) through delivery pipes (3,4). The vessel includes a container (2) having a spillway (8). Liquid which passes over the lid of the spillway is collected by a liquid-collecting device (9) connected to a container outlet valve (7) by means of an arm ( 12) which is subjected to the load of a spring (13). When the weight of the liquid collected in the device (9) exceeds the force exerted by the spring, the outlet valve will open. At the same time there is activated, for instance, a microswitch (17) which influences the supply of liquid through the velivery pipes (3,4). The liquid-collecting device has a constricted outlet ( 11) and when the liquid collected by the device (9) has drained therefrom, the spring ( 13) will return the outlet valve (7) to its closed position and the microswitch is operated so as to enable further liquid to be delivered from the delivery pipes.

Abstract: In order to produce a pulse generator, in the case of which a voltage pulse, which is independent of the magnetic field change, can be produced by sudden reversal of the magnetisation (Barkhausen effect) when a magnetic field is applied, an iron alloy 2 is used for one of the materials of the composite body, the additional alloying components of which alloy are selected such that a structural transformation takes place, with a volume change, at different temperatures in each case. In order to produce the braced state, heat treatment is then carried out, which includes heating above the upper transition temperature and cooling below the lower transition temperature. This results in considerably higher stresses between the materials of the composite body and hence a pulse behaviour which is considerably better than that known and which can be used for identifying constant or alternating magnetic fields. <IMAGE>

Abstract: An arrangement involving apparatus and process damps vibrations, for example, rotary or linear vibrations, in a member (110, 452) to be damped, for example, in a supply tension arm forming part of a tape transport of a digital cassette recording system. The arrangement includes a limited angle torquer motor having an output (236, 458) connected to the member such that the presence of the detected vibrations to be damped imparts corresponding back EMF voltage within the motor. A servo circuit (300) connected to the input of the motor is designed to be responsive to the back EMF voltage within the motor, actually to an emulated version of the back EMF voltage, for driving the motor in a way to thereby damp the vibrations within the motor shaft which, in turn, damps the rotary or linear vibrations within the member itself. Approximately 20dBs of attenuation in vibration at the resonant frequency has been shown.

Abstract: The invention concerns a system for the automated analysis of words composed of several components. Such analyses are required, for example, for text correction or syllabification by means of a computer system. For this purpose, the computer system decomposes the compound word into its components and compares the compound word letter for letter with components stored in its memory. The memory also contains rank orders indicating a component's probability of occurrence in a compound word. If the computer finds a match between a stored component and letters of the compound word, it checks the probability of occurrence of this component within the compound word. By means of this probability information, the computer system decides whether the component is "correct" or "incorrect", i.e. whether the compound word has been correctly or incorrectly decomposed. Further information for verifying the decomposition of a compound word consists of a rank order stored in the memory of the computer system and indicating for each number of letters of a compound word the most probable number of components contained therein. Rank orders of the above-described kind are used by the computer system to decompose a compound into its components quickly and correctly.

Abstract: The telescopic system consisting of several plunger-type cylinders (1, 2, 3) is intended in particular for the actuation of a jib in cranes or the like. The plunger-type cylinders (1, 2, 3) are arranged to be longitudinally displaceable relative to one another and are guided one inside the other like a piston/cylinder arrangement in such a way as to be extendable by pressurising with a hydraulic medium. Each of the longitudinally displaceable plunger-type cylinders (1, 2, 3) is closed by a plunger head (5) at its rear end face in the extension direction. In this arrangement, an overflow passage (6) for the hydraulic medium is provided in the plunger head (5), which overflow passage (6) extends axially between its two sides and can be closed by a check valve (7), and an actuating member for the check valve (7) is provided in the area of the plunger head (5). The check valve (7) is opened only when the plunger-type cylinders (2, 3) are fully extended. Provided in the cylinder space of each of the longitudinally displaceable plunger-type cylinders (2, 3) is a locking ring (8) which can be adjusted axially by the plunger head (5) of the next plunger-type cylinder (3) arranged in the cylinder space against the force of a spring (9) towards the plunger head (5) and actuates at least one radially adjustable locking member (10). In the position of the locking ring (8) remote from the plunger head (5), the locking member (10) locks the displaceability of this plunger-type cylinder (3, 2) relative to the plunger-type cylinder (2, 1) enclosing it. The retraction of the individual plunger-type cylinders is achieved by the application of an external force to a rope held permanently tensioned by means of a travel motor. <IMAGE>
