Patent EP-0330425-A3 (EP)
Title: Symmetric multi-processing control arrangement
IPC: G06F15/16
Filed: 1989-02-21
Abstract: A digital data processing system including a 
plurality of processors, each including a central 
processor unit for processing programs at predetermined 
synchronization priority levels and a cache memory. A 
memory shared by all of the processors includes an 
synchronization level table which identifies a processor 
operating at each synchronization priority level. A 
common bus interconnects the processors and the memory. 
When a processor is to execute a program, it adjusts its 
synchronization priority level to a predetermined 
synchronization priority level. To do that, the 
processor accesses the synchronization level table over 
the common bus to determine whether the level is 
accessible and, if so, places an entry in the table to 
indicate that the synchronization priority level is 
occupied. If the synchronization priority level is not 
accessible, the processor continually monitors the entry 
in the table over the common bus to determine when it is 
accessible. To accomplish that, the processor monitors 
its cache, which contains a copy of the table entry 
associated with the synchronization priority level. 
When the synchronization priority level becomes 
accessible, the cache copy is invalidated so that the 
processor then has to use the table. Until the 
synchronization priority level does become accessible, 
however, the processor uses the cache copy of the table 
entry which reduces accesses of memory.

Title: Medical appliance for the hand
IPC: A61H7/00
Filed: 1989-05-18
Abstract: Device and method for venous-flow stimulation, 
through localized periodic application of squeezing 
forces, essentially limited to the phalanx of the 
digits and thumb, and to the adjacent region of the 
palm of the hand. To this end, an inflatable mitt 
is applied to the said phalanx and adjacent regions, 
with digits and thumb projecting beyond the mitt. 
The mitt may be wrapped with suitable fabric, such 
as surgical gauze or muslin, to provide a circum­
ferential tie of the inflatable regions, the tie 
providing hoop-tension reference for inward applica­
tion of a squeezing pressure/release cycle; and the 
squeeze is applied in unison circumferentially around 
each of the individual digits (and thumb) at the 
phalanx region. Alternatively, the inflatable mitt 
may be embedded in an orthopedic cast, without 
impairing the application of pulsed pressure local 
to the indicated region in this case the circumferen­
tial tie is provided by the case. In either case, 
arterial throughput is also noted, concurrent with 
such venous-flow stimulation, and the arterial through­
put is enhanced when the stimulating pulse is sustained 
for a brief period prior to a relaxation dwell between 
pulses.

Patent EP-0385384-A3 (EP)
IPC: G06T7/246
Filed: 1990-02-27
Abstract: A method for detecting and tracking moving objects in a digital image sequence having a stationary background by comparing the image sequence to a calculated background image sequence, whereby a sequence of binary object masks is calculated whose segments reproduce the shapes and positions of the moving subjects, and whereby the motion vectors of the moving objects are calculated by matching these segments. Also, a sequence of background images is calculated by spatially selective and time recursive averaging of the input image sequence in which the moving objects are not contained but in which other modifications of the background that are not caused by moving objects are contained. Further, a sequence of binary object masks is calculated by binarization of the difference image sequence from the input image sequence and the background image sequence using a threshold whose value is used for controlling the spatial selectivity in the calculation of the background image sequence and whose segments are determined together with their sizes and center of gravity positions. Finally, motion vectors of the detected objects are determined by minimization of the squared gray scale value differences averaged over the intersection of the shifted mask segments, whereby differences between the center of gravity vectors of corresponding segments are utilized as start vectors in the minimization.

Title: Method of driving a solid state imaging device
IPC: H04N5/3728
Filed: 1990-06-12
Abstract: Disclosed is a method of driving a solid-state imaging 
device for discharging optical charge stored in a channel 
area of a solid-state imaging device so as to adjust an 
exposure. In a solid-state imaging device having a 
horizontal-type overflow drain structure in which an 
overflow drain is formed at a channel stop for dividing a 
channel area, optical charge stored in the channel area is 
transferred in an opposite direction to a reading direction 
during a vertical scanning period and a potential barrier 
between the channel area and the overflow drain is 
extinguished during the period of transfer of the optical 
charge, thereby discharging the optical charge. The optical 
charge stored again in the channel area is transferred in 
the reading direction within a blanking period during the 
vertical scanning period. In a method of driving a solid-­
state imaging device having a vertical-type overflow drain 
structure in which a channel area is formed by being divided 
in a diffusion area formed on a semiconductor substrate, 
optical charge stored in the channel area is transferred in 
an opposite direction to a reading direction during a 
vertical scanning period and a potential barrier between the 
channel area and the semiconductor substrate is extinguished 
during the period of transfer of the optical charge, thereby 
discharging the optical charge. The optical charge stored 
 
 
again in the channel area is transferred in the reading 
direction within a blanking period during the vertical 
scanning period. An exposure of the solid-state imaging 
device is adjusted by means of a discharge timing.

Patent EP-0391571-A3 (EP)
Title: Driver-receiver pair for low noise digital signaling
IPC: H03K19/0175
Filed: 1990-03-20
Abstract: A digital signalling circuit employs a spaced 
apart driver and receiver pair in which the signal 
current originates at the receiver and is constant in 
time. The receiver chip includes a constant current 
source connected to the power supply plane and one termination 
of a signal line, a termination resistor connected 
across the signal line termination to the ground 
plane, and a sense amplifier connected to the signal line 
termination for sensing the voltage level or the signal 
line. The driver chip comprises a single switching 
transistor connected across the opposite end of the 
signal line to the ground plane, and is not directly 
coupled to the power supply plane. When the driver 
switching transistor is on, the signal line is grounded 
and the termination resistor in the receiver is effectively 
shorted out. When the driver switching transistor 
is turned off, the signal source current at the receiver 
charges up the signal line and develops a voltage across 
the termination resistor. Since a constant current 
source is used, any inductance in the circuit has no 
effect on the power supply voltage. Power supply bypass 
capacitors are effectively removed from the circuit 
reducing signal propagation times.
