Abstract: A coated solid medicament form suitable for oral administration having reliable releasability of the active ingredient only in the large intestine is proposed. The medicament form is prepared by coating a core solid medicament form containing the active ingredient first with a chitosan having a specific degree of deacetylation and a specific degree of polymerization and then top-coated with a specific enteric-soluble polymer which is a hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose acetate succinate or a hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose hexahydrophthalate. The releasability of the active ingredient only in the large intestine can be more reliable when the core medicament form is, prior to coating with chitosan, provided with an enteric undercoating layer.

Abstract: There is disclosed a process for preparing sulfonyl acids from mercaptans in a single reactor. The mercaptan is converted to a mercaptide and reacted with an acrylic acid or salt thereof in a basic reaction medium. After formation of the thioether, the reaction medium is treated with chlorine gas to oxidize the thioether to the sulfone. Mild conditions and readily available starting materials render the method capable of preparing such acids efficiently in large scale amounts.

Abstract: In a radio paging receiver, a CPU selects (SA3) from call signals a specific call signal specific to the receiver and from message signals a specific message signal that follows the specific call signal and represents a specific message, which is displayed (SA23) on a display. The CPU judges (SA20) whether or not the specific message is identical with a predetermined message. An EEPROM memorizes (SA21) an inhibit signal when the specific message is identical with the predetermined message. The CPU puts (SA23-SA25) the receiver out of operation when the EEPROM memorizes the inhibit signal. The CPU makes (SA23) the display display the predetermined message when the EEPROM memorizes the inhibit signal.

Abstract: Disclosed is a process for producing a semiconductor device, which comprises: depositing an insulator film on one major surface of a semiconductor substrate; and etching said insulator film using a narrow gap system single wafer processing type dry etcher having an electrode-to-electrode distance of 15 mm or less, while the substrate temperature is maintained at 60°C or less. Very fine and deep contact holes having an aspect ratio of more than 1 can be formed in fabricating a multilayer interconnection structure semiconductor device. A 1 µm thick silicon oxide film is allowed to grow as an insulator film 2 by CVD process on a silicon substrate 1, followed by reactive dry etching after masking with a photoresist 3. In this process, 30 sccm of CF₄, 30 sccm of CHF₃ and 120 sccm of Ar are introduced to the reaction chamber in which the electrode-to-electrode distance is set to a narrow gap of 10 mm, and the total pressure is controlled to 300 mtorr. By carrying out the dry etching, while a high frequency is applied at a power density of 5W/cm² across the electrodes in the reaction chamber and the temperature of the silicon substrate 1 is controlled to 55°C, a contact hole having a taper angle controlled to 75° can be formed with a protective film 4 formed on the side wall thereof.

Abstract: A mechanism for communicating messages, each including a command and a response, in a network having central processing complexes (CPCs) and one or more coupling facilities. Each coupling facility has a central processor for executing instructions and a main storage. Messages are sent from a message control block in the main storage of the CPC sending the message, and the response to the message is received in a message response block of the CPC without an interrupt to the program being executed by the central processor of the CPC. Each message from a CPC to the coupling facility may include a command and an indicator bit which instructs the coupling facility to execute the command either in synchronism with or asynchronously to the execution of the sending processor. The coupling facility executes the command and returns a response which is received in a message response block of the main storage of the sending CPC without an interrupt to any program being executed by the central processor of that CPC.

Abstract: We have found a way to, e.g., substantially increase the number of layers in a pseudomorphic strained layer semiconductor mirror (e.g., 32) over the number obtainable in an analogous conventional mirror, making it possible to obtain pseudomorphic strained layer mirrors of increased reflectance. Such a pseudomorphic mirror consists of alternating layers of a first and a second semiconductor material (e.g., 321, 322) (e.g., Ge x  Si 1-x /Si), of thickness t 1  and t 2 , and refractive index n 1  and n 2 , respectively, with the number of layer pairs chosen such that the mirror thickness is less than or equal to the "critical thickness" L c . For thicknesses > L c  the mirror will contain dislocations. 
     An article (30) according to the invention comprises a mirror (e.g., 32) whose layer thicknesses are chosen such that n 1  t 1  ≠ n 2  t 2 , with n 1  t 1  + n 2  t 2  = pλ/2, (p being an odd integer, typically 1). In other words, the optical thickness of the layers is not the conventional pλ/4. The thicknesses are also chosen such that the average lattice mismatch between substrate and mirror is reduced, compared to the analogous conventional (λ/4) mirror. Mirrors according to the invention can be advantageously used in optoelectronic devices such as surface emitting lasers and p-i-n photodetectors.

Abstract: A cache tag memory array which includes a bit position for a status bit corresponding to each entry in the cache tag memory array. The status bit is included in each tag for a tag RAM. The status bit indicates whether or not updated data in the cache memory has been updated in main memory. Upon an initial entry into the cache tag memory, the status bit is set to a first state. The status bit is the set to a second state when a local processor updates data in the cache memory and the data is not immediately updated in main memory. When data in the cache memory is to be written over by new data, a cache controller monitors whether or not the status bit is set to the second state. If the status bit is set to the second state, the data in the cache memory must be written into the main memory before the new data can be written into the cache memory. If the status bit is not set to a second state, the new data is written immediately into the cache memory. Including the status bit in each of the tags results in a savings of board space and allows the cache memory to operate more efficiently.

Abstract: A coding rate upper limit value storing unit (403) and a coding rate lower limit value storing unit store (404) a pair of a preset quantization accuracy and an upper limit value and a lower limit value on a coding rate corresponding to the preset quantization accuracy respectively. A coding rate calculating unit (402) calculates a coding rate based on a code amount generated for a frame which was coded the last time. A first comparator (405) and a second comparator (406) compare a coding rate calculated by the coding rate calculating unit (402) with an upper limit value and a lower limit value on a coding rate corresponding to a quantization accuracy with which a frame was coded the last time respectively. If the coding rate from the coding rate calculating unit is greater than the upper limit value or is smaller than the lower limit value, a quantization accuracy which is more accurate or less accurate than the quantization accuracy with which a frame was coded the last time is selected from quantization accuracies respectively. If a quantization accuracy is in a range between the lower limit value and the upper limit value, the range including the lower limit value and the upper limit value, the quantization accuracy with which a frame was coded the last time is selected. A quantization accuracy directing unit (407) outputs the thus selected quantization accuracy to a quantizing unit (223), and the quantizing unit performs coding with the received quantization accuracy.
