Title: Apparatus for selecting a reference line for image data compression
IPC: H04N1/417
Filed: 1988-03-09
Abstract: An apparatus for selecting a reference line 
for image data compression including a plurality of 
mutually connected reference selector chips for select­
ing a reference scan line from vertical mode coding of 
image data. The reference selector chips select a ref­
erence scan line from a plurality of preceding scan 
lines in exclusive or combination of the image data of 
each candidate reference scan line with the image data 
from the input scan line. The candidate reference scan 
line that has the lowest number of dissimilar bits is 
selected as the reference scan line. Each candidate 
reference scan line has associated therewith a register 
having bit positions arranged from the highest order 
bit position to a lowest order bit position for storing 
a binary sum of the number of dissimilar bits. When 
the sums are compared, the binary value and successive 
bit positions are compared from the highest order bit 
position to the lowest order bit position. When the 
binary value for a compared bit position of a register 
is greater than the binary value in the corresponding 
bit position of another register, each reference selec­
tor chip generates a losing signal for indicating that 
the register lost the arbitration. When the lowest 
order bit position of a register is not greater than 
the lowest order bit position of any other register and 
no losing signal was generated for that register, the 
associated chip generates a winning signal for indicat­
ing which candidate reference scan line had the least 
number of bits dissimilar to the corresponding bits in 
the input scan line. Each chip further includes a cir­
cuit for establishing a priority among the candidate 
reference scan lines so that two registers both having 
the smallest binary sum will not create a deadlock.

Patent EP-0300816-A3 (EP)
IPC: B64C11/34
Filed: 1988-07-22
Abstract: A propellor attachment 10 comprises a collar 34 for 
engaging a propellor 36 located within a housing 22. 
The housing 22 is movable against resilient biassing means 
30 when the propellor develops sufficient thrust. 
Motion of the housing 22, by means of a rod 32 contacting a 
flange 38 on the collar, effects rotation of the collar 34 
thereby altering the pitch of the propellor. The force 
required to overcome the biassing means 30 is set 
approximately midway between the thrust required for 
climbing and the thrust required for cruising. The 
propellor therefore automatically takes up the required 
pitch for take off/climb conditions and cruising 
conditions.

Title: Method and apparatus for determining by means of an osmometer the concentration of an element dissolved in a solvent
IPC: G01N13/04
Filed: 1989-07-13
Abstract: In a method for determining the content of substances dissolved in a solvent by means of an osmometer consisting of a two-chamber system with a first chamber with an osmotic cell and a second chamber for the solution to be measured, to shorten the measuring time and to improve the separation of permeating components during the measurement of the content of the substance in the solution to be measured, the pressure in the osmotic cell is kept constant with an incompressible membrane arrangement which is present, where a pressure measuring apparatus in the second chamber is used to measure a change in pressure which, after the replacement of a solvent, a reference or calibration solution by a solution to be measured corresponds to the concentrations of the non-permeating and permeating substances, or to the flows of the permeating substances between the osmotic cell and the second chamber, and the content of the non-permeating and permeating substances in the solution to be measured is determined by analysis of the graph. A modification provides for the volume of the first chamber, in which the osmotic cell is located, to be changed by means of an apparatus as a function of the determined time course of the pressure until this value assumes the value 0. In this case too, there is evaluation of the graph which has been drawn.

Abstract: A process for the production of high-performance 
ceramics and ceramic precursors is disclosed which comprises 
reacting an organometallic precursor with a reactant in 
a supercritical fluid and exposing the organometallic prod­
uct to a ceramic material. A critical temperature (or

and dialkyl silanes in the presence of a supercritical 
fluid such as nitrogen, hydrogen, ammonia and mixtures 
thereof for the nitrogen-containing ceramics and in the 
presence of hydrocarbons, hydrogen or mixtures thereof 
for the carbide ceramics. The high performance ceramics 
produced find particular application in the automobile 
industry.
