Inventor: MOON SEONG-JIN
IPC: H04N5/76
Filed: 1999-06-23
Abstract: A recording medium for storing information for still
pictures, and a recording and/or reproducing method and
apparatus therefor are provided. In a writeable and
rewriteable recording medium such as a DVD disk, data for
a plurality of still pictures and audio data added thereto
is stored in one file (203) or a space having a logically
one-dimensional order, rather than storing each in a
separate file, and still picture group information for
separating the still picture data into a predetermined
number of groups in order to manage the still pictures at
a group level is then stored (202). Thus, large-capacity
still picture data and audio data added thereto can be
recorded and/or reproduced using the minimum amount of
information. The still picture group information includes
general information for a still picture group, containing
the start position of the still picture group and the
number of video parts in the still picture group, and
information for a still picture, the information
containing position information thereof. The general
information for a still picture group includes the start
position of a still picture in the still picture group.
The information for a still picture and audio data
includes the sizes thereof. Therefore, effective
management of information is allowed.

Abstract: A control system for an internal combustion engine
in which a valve timing is switched between a low-speed
(LO-V/T) or high-speed (HI-V/T) valve timing within a
lean-burn control range established in accordance with
the operational state (an intake pipe internal absolute
pressure (PBA) and an engine revolution number (Ne)) of
the engine, wherein an air-fuel ratio of an air-fuel
mixture supplied to the engine is enriched for a
predetermined time when the valve timing is switched (b)
from the low-speed valve timing to the high-speed valve
timing while carrying out a lean-burn control. The
ignition timing (IG) may be changed from a value
suitable for one valve timing to a value suitable for
the other valve timing via an intermediate value. The
air-fuel ratio may be enriched for a set period when
going from a lean-burn or fuel-cut condition to a
stoichiometric condition when there is a ternary
catalyst in the exhaust.

Title: Mechanism for fixing probe card
Inventor: YONEZAWA TOSHIHIRO
IPC: G01R31/28
Filed: 2003-10-29
Abstract: In a mechanism (10) for fixing a probe card (11),
the probe card (11) and a support frame (12) are joined
to each other about the axis of each of the probe card
(11) and the support frame (12) by a plurality of first
fastening members (16A). Also, the outer
circumferential edge portion of the support frame (12)
is fixed by a plurality of second fastening members
(16B) to a holder (13) fixed to a probe unit. The
probe card (11) is held by the mechanism (10) such that
the central region of the probe card (11) is restricted
by the first fastening members (16A) and the outer
circumferential portion of the probe card (11) is not
restricted so as to be rendered free. It follows that
the probe card (11) is expanded toward the outer
circumferential edge portion by thermal expansion under
a high-temperature. However, the probe card (11) is
prevented from being deformed in the shape of a dome.

Abstract: A method for adjusting the color reproduction of a color image
composed of pixels provided in a plurality of color channels is based on
generating a reference image from a combination of the color channels, whereby
each spatial coordinate of the reference image is characterized by a reference
image level. Channel averages of the color channel values of the pixels that
correspond to each of at least two different valued reference image levels are
generated. Specific channel averages are obtained corresponding to a near white
point and a near black point from the channel averages. The specific channel
averages are utilized on a pixel by pixel basis for the respective channels of the
digital color image to produce a processed digital color image having improved
color reproduction.

Abstract: An information management system is described
comprising one or more workstations running
applications which allow a user of the workstation to
connect to a network, such as the Internet. Each
application has an analyser, which monitors
transmission data that the application is about to
transmit to the network or has just received from the
network, and which determines an appropriate action to
take regarding that data. The analyser may consult
policy data containing a supervisor-defined policy to
govern the workstations in order to determine what
action to take. 
     Such actions may be extracting data from the
transmission data, such as passwords and usernames,
digital certificates or eCommerce transaction details
for storage and record keeping; ensuring that the
transmission data is transmitted at an encryption
strength appropriate to the contents of the
transmission data; determining whether a check needs to
be made as to whether a digital certificate received in
transmission data is valid; determining whether a
transaction about to be made by a user of one of the
workstations needs third party approval before it is
made; and controlling the transmission of messages,
such as e-mails according to a policy.

Abstract: The invention is a two part polymerizable composition comprising in one part an organoborane amine complex and one or more compounds containing ring opening heterocyclic moieties, and in a second part, compounds capable of being polymerized by free radical polymerization, a catalyst capable of polymerizing compounds containing ring opening heterocyclic moieties and optionally a component that will decomplex the organoborane amine complex. In one embodiment the invention is a two phase system comprising a first phase containing one or more polymers prepared from the compounds which polymerize by free radical polymerization and a second phase comprising polymerized or partially polymerized compounds derived from one or more compounds containing ring opening heterocyclic moieties. In one embodiment the polymer prepared from compounds containing heterocyclic ring opening moieties is not miscible with the polymer prepared by free radical polymerization and thus the resulting polymerized composition has at least two regions each rich in one of the two polymers formed. In another embodiment the polymerizable compositions of the invention can be formulated into adhesive compositions. Adhesive compositions of the present formulation provide excellent adhesion to low surface energy plastics from room temperature to temperatures over 125° C.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un ensemble optique conçu pour générer un spectre à large bande. L'objectif de cette invention est de réduire la complexité structurale et le coût d'un tel ensemble optique, de maintenir la source de rayonnement laser compacte et d'adapter de manière simple le domaine spectral du spectre à large bande à la gamme de sensibilités des détecteurs à semi-conducteurs usuels. A cet effet, un laser à corps solide à couplage passif de modes servant à fournir des impulsions picosecondes pour une longueur d'onde de sortie se trouvant dans le domaine de l'infrarouge est couplé avec une fibre photonique de manière optiquement adaptée. L'adaptation de la dispersion de cette fibre photonique à la longueur d'onde de sortie permet de situer un intervalle de puissance de rayonnement du spectre à large bande qui s'étend avec une intensité sensiblement uniforme, dans un domaine spectral compris entre 700 nm et 1000 nm au-dessous de la longueur d'onde de sortie. La source de rayonnement large bande présente une brillance plus élevée et peut entre autres être utilisée en interférométrie en lumière blanche (tomographie par cohérence optique, radar cohérent, radar spectral) et en spectroscopie (spectroscopie pompe-sonde).

Abstract: Memory access requests are successively received in a memory request queue of a memory controller. Any conflicts or potential delays between temporally proximate requests that would occur if the memory access requests were to be executed in the received order are detected, and the received order of the memory access requests is rearranged to avoid or minimize the conflicts or delays and to optimize the flow of data to and from the memory data bus. The memory access requests are executed in the reordered sequence, while the originally received order of the requests is tracked. After execution, data read from the memory device by the execution of the read-type memory access requests are transferred to the respective requestors in the order in which the read requests were originally received.
