Abstract: A database application implemented on a computer includes a generic database management product (software) such as IBM DB2 along with a catalog defining the way the data itself is stored. The catalog is a definition of the tables, indexes, views, user authorizations, etc., that specify a user's particular application of the database management system. Access to the database via the catalog uses a structured query language or (SQL) which provides a way of expressing statements in a high-level language so the user will not be burdened with writing code to access the data itself. The structured query language provides statements for defining tables, indexes, views, etc., to be incorporated into the catalog. A database application (to fit a user's business) is generated and updated in a number of phases, such as design, development, test and production, and in each one of these phases a facility exists for making alterations in the database definition (catalog), all of which make use of SQL to implement the changes. According to a feature of the invention, a change definition language (CDL) is provided which is an extension of (and in the general format of) the structured query language. The change definition language allows all important alterations to be described, as changes to an existing definition, for example, and may be used by all phases of the development cycle. The CDL statements do not make the changes directly in the catalog, but instead work through SQL and another intermediate mechanism such as DB2 ALTER tailored to make changes using SQL. The changes expressed in CDL may be migrated to downstream phases and fed back to earlier phases by use of a batch of change statements expressed in CDL.

Abstract: A connection, such as a soldered connection between the ends (4, 5), which can be fitted together, of two tubular piece parts, has interacting sloping surfaces (16, 17) at both ends. The sloping surfaces (16, 17) orientate the inner end (5) in a sliding and centring manner relative to the outer end (4) in such a way that the connecting or soldering surfaces (14, 15) closely adapted to one another find their way into their predetermined congruent position by themselves. At the same time, the connecting or soldering agent (30) can be applied to the joint with the inner end (5) and while being stripped off can be collected there in an annular bead. This results in substantial simplifications in the making of the connection, which is thus suitable for fully automatic mechanised production. <IMAGE>

Abstract: It is known to use continuous belts for transporting photographic material through large multi-stranded photographic processing machines so that the material is pulled and guided through each of the processing stages in the machine. The belt is arranged to run on one side of the material path and special spring clips are used to attach the material to the belt. However, the spring clips tend to damage the belt and reduce its operational life. Described herein is a belt arrangement for which clips are not required. A continuous belt (60) having a plurality of slots (68) formed therein is arranged to travel in the material processing path, the belt extending across substantially the entire width of the processing path. Material (70, 72) to be processed is threaded through one of the slots (68) in the belt (60) and folded over. This belt arrangement allows unstable chemistries, such as redox amplification chemistry, to be used in large processing machines by reducing the volumes of processing solutions required.

Abstract: A method and system for facilitating the selection of icons. Those icons which are next likely to be used are selected and automatically moved towards a cursor thereby facilitating selection of the icons. Additionally, those icons likely to be used or other icons selected by a user may track the cursor such that those icons are always close to the cursor and capable of being easily selected. Further, in order to facilitate selection of icons, icons are provided with the capability of announcing themselves when a cursor comes close to the icon. In addition, it is possible to reduce the amount of clutter on a computer display so that icons may be easily selected. In order to clean up a computer display, icons which are least likely to be used are faded, eliminated or shrunk to a smaller size. In another embodiment, icons that are not used very often may disappear into a master icon and further, icons which have a conceptual relationship between them may be linked by a visual graphical representation.
