Abstract: In an LCD device of an IPS (In-Plane Switching) mode
having two alignment films which are subjected to
individual aligning treatments and between which liquid
crystal molecules are interposed and sealed, the aligning
treatments of the two alignment films are carried out in
the same sense to put the molecules into a state of splay
alignment. Specifically, parts of the molecules adjacent
to the two alignment films have pretilt angles each of
which has an absolute value not smaller than two degrees
due to influence of the aligning treatments. Therefore, an
appearance of undesirable light points is suppressed in the
manufacturing the LCD device, and the LCD device has a good
yield.

Abstract: A pair of compact, energy-efficient,
intelligent, wireless transceiver units are designed to
replace the cable that interconnects a portable bar-code
scanner, keyboard, and display or other host to a
portable bar-code printer or the like. When reset, the
units exchange linkage packets and thereby exchange
addresses. Thereafter, the two units communicate in an
error-free fashion with each other, even in the presence
of noise and interference, by exchanging addressed
packets containing error detection information.
Alternate transmission frequencies are selected when
transmissions cannot be received at one frequency. The
host unit may maintain independent linkages with
multiple printers or the like, with a switch on the host
unit selecting the desired printer. Power usage is
minimized by shutting down transmitters, receivers,
serial port drivers, and microprocessors whenever
possible, and for extended periods when data is not
being transmitted.

Abstract: Compensation for the effects of duty cycle on the output level of an imaging device, and for the effects of periodically varying distance between the output of the imaging device and its target, is accomplished electronically. An exemplary apparatus includes a source of radiation (generally a laser) having an output level that varies both with an input power level and, undesirably, with the duty cycle. The apparatus also includes means for focusing the radiation onto a recording surface, and a power supply for driving the radiation source. In the case of a diode laser, the power supply delivers a variable current, the magnitude of which determines the power output of the laser. The radiation source is operated to produce, on the recording surface, an imagewise pattern of spots, and an adjustment facility alters the output of the power supply to compensate for output-level variations resulting from duty cycle-that is, from the recent pattern of laser activity. In a first embodiment, the invention includes an up-down counter that receives, as input, the same binary image data in serial form that is used to determine the state of the radiation source as it scans over a recording medium (causing actuation of the source only when adjacent to a location on the recording medium that is to be written). The counter increments during clock cycles when the radiation source is active, and decrements during inactive cycles. As a result, the state of the counter generally reflects the recent pattern of radiation-source activity, and its contents are used to address a list of correction values. In a second embodiment, serial image data is applied to a shift register rather than a counter. This provides a more precise record of the pattern of recent activity, and the instantaneous contents of the register are once again used to address a list of correction values. To compensate for the effects eccentric rotation on the output level of an imaging device, a function that inverts or at least counteracts the resulting power variations is applied to the power supply operating the radiation source. <IMAGE>

Abstract: An apparatus and method provide for the execution of object-oriented
languages, and more particularly increase the performance of Java
application execution. The performance increase of Java application
execution is achieved by first moving the Java application code into a Java
server (160). The Java server (160) utilizes the application code and
functions as a library of classes and methods. The Java server (160) is
accessed by an object file (140), that is setup to access the correct Java
server process. Next, when an application is to be executed, the object file
(140) calls the Java server (160) process that forks itself and then has the
child server (180) run the already loaded classes and methods. Thus, the
Java classes and methods are loaded only once when the Java Virtual
Machine is started. With large classes and methods, it is faster to connect
up to the already running Java server and have the already running Java
server fork a child server (180) to execute the correct classes and methods
than it is to start and load the Java Virtual Machine, and execute the
original classes and methods.

in a region which is irradiated with the radiations
radiated from the radiation source, and an image pickup
means to deal with the light beams emitted from the first,
second and third scintillators and the discrimination
measurement includes the steps of arranging the first,
second and third scintillators in a region which is
irradiated with the radiations radiated from the radiation
source, causing the first scintillator to respond to type
A, type B and type C radiations radiated from the radiation
source and to emit alight beam in a first wavelength
region, causing the second scintillator to respond to type
B and type C radiations which pass through the first
scintillator so as to to emit a light beam in a second
wavelength region, and causing the third scintillator to
respond to a type C radiation which passes through the
third scintillator so as to emit a light beam in a third
wavelength region which is different from said first and
second wavelength regions. The data of the scintillators
are corrected in accordance with the wavelengths and the
measurement of radiations according to the type thereof is
discriminated and simultaneously measured.

Abstract: A linear motor comprising prismatic inner yokes each
constructed in a manner that a large number of sheets each
having a generally rectangular configuration and having a
high magnetic permeability are piled up each other and outer
yokes each constructed in a manner that a number of sheets
each having a generally rectangular configuration and having
a high magnetic permeability are piled up each other. Each
of coils is wound around a central portion of three magnetic
pole portions of the outer yoke to alternately establish
different magnetic poles along a direction of an axis of the
linear motor. A surface of the outer yoke, holding the
magnetic pole portions, is disposed in an opposed relation to
the inner yoke to define a predetermined gap therebetween
so that the inner yoke and the outer yoke form each of a
plurality of yoke blocks. The yoke blocks are placed around
the axis so that the sheet piling-up direction is perpendicular
to a diametrical direction of a shaft. In addition, a moving
element having a pair of permanent magnets magnetized
radially so that their magnetizing directions are opposite to
each other is movably located between the inner yoke and
the outer yoke at a predetermined interval along the axis.
This construction improves the motor efficiency and
facilitates the manufacturing of the motor.
