Abstract: A non-polarized input beam(10) has a waist matching that of the light input surface of a polarizing beam splitter(14) wherein the beam is divided into P and S components. The P component exits through a 1/2 wave retarder(36) and the S component(19) is directed to a turning prism(30) from which it exits in tandem with the P component to form an output beam having a geometrical extent substantially twice that of the input beam. The P and S components are confined by sides of the splitter(14) and the prism(30), respectively, by Total Internal Reflection, thereby achieving high efficiency without increasing the size of the optical components from that of lower efficiency, prior art polarization converters.

IPC: G06F13/12
Filed: 1997-01-09
Abstract: In a data processing system in which main and sub disk storage devices 5,
10 are each under the control of individual disk control devices 3, 8, the write processing
time is reduced by selectively sending data according to a command-chaining
time between the main and sub disk control devices. A section 36 for
judging cable length and function of the sub disk control device 8 estimates the
command-chaining time between a pair of main and sub disk storage devices. A
channel command analysing section 31 estimates the number of records to be
transferred and the length of a record using a LOCATE RECORD command. The
command judgement section 32 for the sub disk control device 8 optimises the
command chain to be issued to the sub disk control device using the above information.
A command issuing section 35 then issues the optimised command chain
to the sub disk control device 8. Thus, a shorter transmission time is realised by
sending either individual records or an entire track of data.

Abstract: A system for controlling the distribution and use of digital works (101) using digital
tickets. In the present invention, a "digital ticket" is used to entitle the ticket holder to exercise
some usage right (102) with respect to a digital work. Usage rights are used to define how a
digital work may be used or distributed. Each usage right may specify a digital ticket which
must be present before the right may be exercised. Digital works are stored in repositories
which enforce digital works usage rights (105) when usage of a digital work is requested by a
requesting repository (103,104). Each repository has a "generic ticket agent' which punches
tickets. In some instances only the generic ticket agent is necessary. In other instances,
punching by a "special ticket agent" residing on another repository may be needed.
