Abstract: The present application transmits
significant data unidirectionally among a plurality of
terminal apparatuses and causes a terminal apparatus at the
downstream end of a transmission path to collect the
significant data. Each terminal apparatus includes a data
detection section for detecting whether or not significant
data written at another terminal apparatus located toward
the upstream side of the transmission path is received, and
also includes a data selection section for transferring the
significant data as is to a downstream terminal apparatus
when the reception of the significant data is detected or
outputting significant data generated within the terminal
apparatus to a downstream terminal apparatus when the
reception of the significant data is not detected.

IPC: B60L50/16

Abstract: The present invention prevents a decrease in efficiency due to energy circulation in a power transmission path in a power output apparatus having an engine and a motor as power source. In the power output apparatus, a planetary gear 120 has a sun gear shaft linked with a generator MG1, a ring gear shaft linked with a motor MG2, and a planetary carrier linked with an output shaft of an engine 150. The power output apparatus carries out a control procedure to avoid energy circulation, which goes through the planetary gear 120, the motor MG2, and generator MG1, and the planetary gear 120, and thereby prevent a decrease in efficiency. The energy circulation occurs when the motor MG2 converts the power output from the engine 150 to electric power and the generator MG1 carries out power operation with the regenerated electric power. The control procedure monitors a torque command value of the motor MG2 and shifts a driving point of the engine 150 to another driving point of higher revolving speed when the torque command value is not greater than a threshold value Tref.

Title: Optical transmission system, optical multiplexing transmission system, and related peripheral techniques
Inventor: ISHIKAWA GEORGE
IPC: H04J14/02
Filed: 1995-08-02
Abstract: The invention provides a technique for optimizing
transmission conditions to achieve large-capacity
transmission, and also provides peripheral techniques for
the practical implementation of optical multiplexing that
makes large-capacity transmission possible. A
transmission characteristic is measured in a transmission
characteristic measuring section (53), and control of signal
light wavelength in a tunable light source. (44), control of
the amount of prechirping, control of the amount of
dispersion compensation, and/or control of optical power
are performed to achieve the best transmission
characteristic. Wavelength dispersion is deliberately
introduced by a dispersion compensator, to reduce
nonlinear effects. A tunable laser is used to optimize
signal light wavelength for each optical amplification
repeater section. Peripheral techniques, such as drift
compensation, clock extraction, optical signal channel
identification, clock phase stabilization, etc., are
provided for the implementation of optical multiplexing.

Abstract: The invention provides a method for the removal of a microscopic sample 1 from a substrate 2, comprising: 
• performing a cutting process whereby the substrate 2 is irradiated with a beam 4 such that the sample 1 is cut out of the substrate 2, and 
• performing an adhesion process whereby the sample 1 is adhered to a probe 3, 
characterized in that 
• the cutting process, during at least part of the duration of the cutting process, is carried out by at least two beams 4, 5 simultaneously. 
     By performing cutting with at least two beams, the sample 1 can be extracted without having to change the orientation of the substrate 2 with respect to the means that produce the beams. Both the act of working with two beams simultaneously and the attendant possibility of keeping the orientation constant provide time-savings compared to a method whereby cutting is only performed with a single beam.
