Patent EP-0461786-A2 (EP)
Inventor: WIECEK CHERYL A
IPC: G06F9/44
Filed: 1991-05-31
Abstract: A method for translating an initial program flow representation of a computer program into a modified program flow representation examines paths in the initial program flow representation, selects for replication nodes which have multiple predecessor nodes and a single successor node which have never been path search exit nodes and which are neither loop members of successors of loop members. Some of those selected nodes are then replicated and replace the nodes that were replicated. The program flow representation can then be reduced by combining nodes which have a predetermined relationship. This resulting flow representation is well suited for translation into a desired computer language.

Abstract: A computer having an internal clock for outputting clock signals for setting the timing of a central processing unit includes as an addition an external clock unit for outputting clock signals faster than those outputted by the internal clock and which may be used in place of the clock signals outputted by the internal clock. In one embodiment, the external clock unit includes a pair of crystal oscillators, a multiplexor for receiving the clock signals form both crystal oscillators and outputting the clock signal from one of the crystal oscillators, two pairs of jumper pins connected to the multiplexor for setting which clock signal is outputted by the multiplexor, a manually operable switch for turning on or off a voltage signal which is used as an external clock enable signal and a power supply. The external clock unit in that embodiment is connected through the backplane in the computer to a multiplexor in a clock module in the CPU module. The external clock unit enables the operating speed of the CPU to be increased in a very easy manner and without making any internal circuit changes inside the module for the CPU.

Abstract: The invention relates to a process for treating mineral wool wastes, which are formed in the production of mineral wool and mineral wool products, and to a plant for carrying out the process. The object is to reprocess these wastes in an economically expedient way in such a manner that they can be supplied to acceptable further utilisation. This is achieved by finely grinding the mineral wool wastes to a particle size of at most 50 % R0.090 mm. This grinding product is mixed with a solid binder or with a strenthening liquid and formed into shaped pieces, for example granules, in a size of approximately 50 mm, from which the moisture is then removed by drying with simultaneous strengthening. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A constant-voltage diode has a first semiconductor region (14) of a first conductivity type, an adjoining semiconductor region (15) of a second conductivity type, a third semiconductor region (16) of the second conductivity type adjoining the second semiconductor region, and a fourth semiconductor region (17) of the first conductivity type partially surrounded by the second semiconductor region (15). At low reverse biases between a cathode electrode (2) and an anode electrode (3), the behavior of the device is determined by the pn junction (J₁) between the first and second semiconductor regions (14,15). As the reverse biasing increases, the depletion layers of that junction (J₁) will reach the fourth semiconductor region (17), but the reverse bias at this time is insufficient to break down that junction (J₁). Increase of reverse bias causes break down of the pn junction (J₃) between the third and fourth semiconductor regions (16,17). This effect is achieved by suitable impurity concentrations in the semiconductor regions (14,15,16,17). A plurality of fourth semiconductor regions (17) may be provided and a bidirectional structure can be obtained by providing a polarity reversed structure with the first semiconductor region (14) in common.

Abstract: The present invention is concerned with a spatially-resolved differential analysis technique. As applied to spatially-resolved modulated differential scanning calorimetry, the present invention comprises a thermocouple probe (13) that is scanned over a sample (11) from position to position. The differential temperature of the area of the sample just beneath the thermocouple probe is obtained with respect to the temperature of a reference (12). The temperature of the sample and the reference are both modulated above and below a transition temperature for one phase of the sample. The signal from the thermocouple probe is then deconvoluted to obtain an image of the sample delineating the regions of the sample having that phase.
