Abstract: PCT No. PCT/SE96/01461 Sec. 371 Date May 11, 1998 Sec. 102(e) Date May 11, 1998 PCT Filed Nov. 12, 1996 PCT Pub. No. WO97/18168 PCT Pub. Date May 22, 1997One or more vertically oriented cyclones are arranged for treating polluted water by oxygenizing the water and separating polluting particles contained therein. Each cyclone has a conically tapered open-ended elongated chamber having a top and a bottom. The top is exposed to the air and the bottom is submerged below the surface of the water being treated. The cyclone draws water in through a tangential inlet adjacent the bottom end of the cyclone. Upon entering the cyclone the water to be treated is rotationally moved in a spiral upward along the inside surface of the cyclone. A portion of the water being treated exits the top of the cyclone carrying separated polluting particles, while the majority of the water being treated exits the bottom of the cyclone with air entrapped therein.

Abstract: In a data recording technique, a file for a computer system is arranged on a recording medium between TOC and video or audio data, thereby enabling the video or audio data to be read out at a high speed and reproduced either by the computer system or by a relatively inexpensive reproducing apparatus (e.g. CD or video CD player). Digital moving picture data and audio data are formed into packets and recorded as time division multiplexed bit streams, the bit streams being split in a self-complete manner, and with the split bit stream representing one program being recorded in a respective one of plural areas. Start access entry points of the programs also are recorded to establish self-complete positions of those programs. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A composite/metallic gun barrel (8) is disclosed having a metallic liner (12) and a composite casing (20) formed by groups of fibers (32). In accordance with one application of the principles of the present invention, the gun barrel is formed by alternating first and second groups of fibers (36, 40) wrapped about the liner, the first groups being disposed in a first orientation generally perpendicular to the long axis (A-A) of the liner, and the second groups including one or more layers disposed generally parallel with the long axis of the metallic liner. By controlling the amount of fibers in each group relative to the other group, the coefficients of thermal expansion in the radial direction can be matched to provide a gun barrel having desirable firing characteristics.

Abstract: A method of transferring funds electronically, is performed by a group of N computers X(1) thru X(N) which are intercoupled to each other, and to another computer Y, by a communication channel. Each computer of the group includes multiple customer accounts, and the computer Y includes a net account for each computer of the group. To initiate the transfer of funds between two customer accounts, a customer sends an input request to one of computers X(i) of the group; and this input request specifies that funds F(z) be transferred in a particular direction between a customer account A(r) in computer X(i) and a customer account A(s) in another computer X(j) of the group. For each input request that is received by computer X(i), a respective sequence of electronic control messages is sent on the communication channel among the computers X(i), X(j) and Y. By this sequence of control messages, computer X(i) tests the status of customer account A(r); computer X(j) tests the status of customer account A(s); and computer Y tests the status of the net accounts for computers X(i) and X(j). If all of the tests by the computers X(i) and x(j) are satisfied, then those computers both authorize computer Y to transfer the funds F(z) between the net accounts for computers X(i) and X(j); and if all of the tests by computer Y are satisfied, then computer Y authorizes the computers X(i) and X(j) to transfer the funds F(z) between the customer accounts A(r) and A(s). This authorization from all three computers eliminates the need to reverse a transfer of funds; and consequently, the transferred funds are available for withdrawal immediately after the sequence of messages is completed successfully.

Abstract: This invention provides an inventive tissue sampling probe which offers many advantages over probes available in the prior art. Unexpectedly superior results are obtained in connection with the retrieval of intact tissue specimens, because of a unique combination of cutting features, including, for example, the employment of an electrosurgical cutting element and a vacuum assist in one preferred embodiment. A particularly important feature of the invention is the ability to manipulate the electrosurgical cutting element to cleanly sever the distal end of the tissue specimen. In certain embodiments, this is accomplished without any cutting impact on surrounding tissue. The versatility of the invention permits its use in many applications, including, for example, breast biopsies, laparoscopic surgery, and lymphadenectomy procedures.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method of configuring a set of object values in a computer. At least one object value of the set of object values is user-chosen from a number of object values. Each object has at least one possible object value. Each object value is determined or undetermined. Each of the determined object values is assigned to a value. Some or all of these object values is included in the set of object values. The object values are constrained by a rule base defining a number of relationships between the objects or the object values. The method uses at least one interruptable algorithm adapted to deduce knowledge about the undetermined object values. This knowledge indicates whether a user selection of a part of or all of the individual undetermined object values are possible or not. The algorithm(s) includes at least one readout point. In at least one dynamic representation of object values, the deduced knowledge in each readout point represents partial knowledge about the undetermined objects, the partial knowledge being presented to the user in response to a user interrupt or a time interrupt. Thus, the invention improves the interactive performance of configuration because information of knowledge can be gradually extracted.
