Patent EP-1018252-A1 (EP)
Inventor: HYLL MATTIAS
IPC: H04L27/26
Filed: 1998-09-09
Abstract: A communications system employing the Discrete Multitone (DMT) line code divides the used frequency band W into a large number of subchannels, each with a bandwidth Δf=W/N. The signal in each subchannel is independently modulated at the symbol rate  1/Δf. Because of noise and the non-ideal characteristics of the transmission channel, the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) varies for different subchannels across the frequency band. Each subchannel is used to transmit an integer number of bits in a two-dimensional signal constellation, the susceptibility to noise increasing with the size of the constellation assuming that the same signal energy is used. In order to use the transmission channel optimally, subchannels are assigned different numbers of bits depending on their specific SNR values, i.e., a subchannel with a high SNR value is assigned a large number of bits and vice versa. An optimal bit allocation is determined that ensures a certain bit error rate (BER) is obtained for all subchannels. In order to simplify numerical computations, thresholding is employed to make initial bit assignments. Further simplification of the bit loading procedures is obtained by ending bit allocation optimization efforts after a targeted BER is achieved.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un système de gestion de services flexible qui crée, fournit, personnalise, et limite les offres de services disponibles sur un réseau intelligent. Un environnement de création de service comprend une requête de schémas, un module de constitution d'écran de service, et un analyseur logique qui coopèrent de manière à créer une fonction de définition d'écran de service. Cette fonction de définition de service est compatible avec les interfaces utilisateur graphique qui font l'interface avec une base de données téléphoniques. La fonction de définition d'écran de service est offerte à un système de gestion de services par un progiciel de définition de services, le système de gestion de services faisant l'interface avec une base de données téléphoniques stockant des données téléphoniques de manière à permettre un service. La fonction de définition d'écran de service permet à un interpréteur d'écran, qui peut résider sur un point d'accès à la gestion de services de communiquer et faire des transactions de données avec la base de données téléphoniques. L'interpréteur d'écran interprète la définition d'écran de service de manière à permettre et à contrôler l'accès aux données téléphoniques, et à orienter la fourniture de services à destination des éléments du réseau, comme par exemple un point de contrôle des services, qui exécutent des fonctions de service selon des données d'abonnement personnalisées faisant partie de la base de données téléphoniques.

Abstract: In a case where a CF film is used as an interlayer dielectric
film for a semiconductor device, when a wiring of W (tungsten)
is formed, the CF film is heated to a temperature of, e.g., about
400 to 450°C. At this time, F gases are desorbed from the CF film,
so that there are various disadvantages due to the corrosion of
the wiring and the decrease of film thickness. 
     As thin-film deposition gases, cyclic C 5 F 8  gas and a
hydrocarbon gas, e.g., C 2 H 4  gas, are used. These gases are
activated as plasm under a pressure of, e.g., 0.1 Torr, to deposit
a CF film on a semiconductor wafer at a process temperature of
400°C using active species thereof. 
     Alternatively, cyclic C 6 F 6  gas is used as a thin-film
deposition gas, and activated as plasma under a pressure of, e.g.,
0.06 Pa, to deposit a CF film on a semiconductor wafer at a process
temperature of 400°C using active species thereof.

IPC: G06F9/318
Filed: 1999-12-01
Abstract: The present invention utilizes a cache which stores various decoded instructions, or
parcels, so that these parcels can be made available to the execution units without having
to decode a microprocessor instruction, such as a CISC instruction, or the like. This
increases performance by bypassing the fetch/decode pipeline stages on the front end of
the microprocessor by using a parcel cache to store previously decoded instructions. The
parcel cache is coupled to the microprocessor fetch/decode unit and can be searched
during an instruction fetch cycle. This search of the parcel cache will occur in parallel
with the search of the microprocessor instruction cache. When parcel(s) corresponding to
the complex instruction being fetched are found in the parcel cache a hit occurs and the
corresponding micro-ops are then sent to the execution units, bypassing the previous
pipeline stages. The parcel cache is dynamic and will use a replacement algorithm, such
as least recently used, to determine how long the parcels will remain in the cache.
