Abstract: The present invention provides a recording apparatus and a reproducing apparatus for compressed data which are continuous data compressed in time. The invention may be applied advantageously to data recording and reproduction on or from a disc-shaped recording medium (32). Data recording is performed in such a manner that a predetermined amount of compressed data stored in a memory (44) are read out continuously and recorded on a recording medium (32), and recording on the recording medium (32) is discontinued during the time which elapses since recording of the predetermined amount of the compressed data until storage in and readout from the memory (44) of a new predetermined amount of the compressed data. On the other hand, data reproduction is performed in such a manner that readout of the compressed data from the recording medium (32) is discontinued during the time which elapses since a predetermined amount of the compressed data is read out from the recording medium (32) on which data compressed in time are recorded until data expanded in time are read out. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A data transfer network is provided which comprises a TFTP server connected to transfer data to a series of client apparatus connected to the network. When data is to be transferred, one of the clients is designated the master client and the speed of requests for data from the master client determines the rate of transfer of the data to all of the clients. The rate of transfer of data to each client, when elected as the master client, is monitored and compared with predetermined transfer rates. If from the comparison it is identified that the transfer rates is longer than that which is required, the TFTP server elects another client which is available as master client. In the event that one of the clients is disabled and cannot act as a master client to receive data, this is identified by the TFTP server by monitoring network management messages which identify the disablement or unavailability of the client. If a client is identified as being unavailable or disabled, the TFTP server does not attempt to elect the client as master client.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for rapidly chilling liquid or slurried food products through a two-stage sequence of jacket cooling followed by vacuum chilling. Slurry and liquid food products heated in a batch are chilled by first employing a chilled liquid flowing through a double walled jacket ( 22 ) surrounding the vessel chamber ( 17 ). When the food product reaches a temperature at which jacket cooling becomes inefficient, this is followed by pulling a vacuum in the space above the product to vacuum cool the product to the desired chilled temperature.

Title: Re-synchronization method for a communication device
Inventor: HIRSCH OLAF J
IPC: H04B7/26
Filed: 2001-06-12
Granted: 2005-11-23
Abstract: A cellular communication system has a number of cells covered by radio base stations communicating with communication device. The communication devices have a master timer for internally timing the communication devices relative to a timing of the cellular communication system. The master timer of a communication device is initially synchronized to a timing reference of a radio base station that provides the currently best communication link. Upon initial synchronization, the communication device determines and stores a first channel profile of received multi-path signals relative to the initial synchronization, and then enters a sleep mode. In the sleep mode a timing reference that controls the master timer is switched off. From the sleep mode, the communication device enters a receive mode and switches on its timing reference. The communication device then determines a second channel profile of received multi-path signals, and derives a timing offset signal from a best fit obtained by fitting the first channel profile to the second channel profile. Finally, the communication device re-synchronizes the master timer on the basis of the derived timing offset signal. The first and second channel profiles are characteristic in time to a particular configuration of radio base stations.
