Patent EP-0919390-A2 (EP)
Inventor: BENDER MICHAEL DONALD
IPC: B41J3/54
Filed: 1998-11-24
Abstract: For a multiprocess application including a
plurality of work stations at which the application
processes proceed simultaneously, such as a printer
including serially aligned laser and inkjet print
engines, a method of controlling job throughput includes
providing a queue for each work station, providing job
data to the queues for a plurality of jobs, and
consecutively tracking for the jobs the progress of the
process corresponding to the rate-determining step for
the application for each of the jobs so that as each job
is completed at a particular work station the work
station begins the process of the work station for the
next job.

Title: A method of manufacturing an electronic device whereby a conductive layer is provided on an electrically insulating substrate, from which layer a conductor pattern is formed
Inventor: PEEK HERMANUS LEONARDUS
IPC: H01L21/768
Filed: 1998-04-09
Abstract: It may be necessary to provide conductors at very small distances from one another when electronic circuits, for example integrated circuits, are manufactured on an insulating substrate. A multilayer wiring system is often used in that case. The invention renders it possible to make very small inter-electrode gaps in a single conductor layer. To achieve this, the conductor layer is covered with a comparatively thick dielectric layer (4, 5) in which windows (8) are formed which extend over only part of the dielectric layer. Then an auxiliary layer (9) is provided which has depressions at the areas of the windows (8). Windows (11) are formed in the dielectric layer by anisotropic etching-back with dimensions which are substantially smaller than the dimensions of the original windows (8). The windows (11) may be used as etching windows or oxidation windows for the subsequent formation of the definitive conductor pattern.

Abstract: A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device with a bipolar transistor, by which method consecutively: a surface (9) of a silicon body (1, 2) is provided with a first layer of silicon oxide (20) by means of oxidation, a base zone (21) is formed by means of ion implantation, a second layer of silicon oxide (22) is formed on the first layer of silicon oxide by means of deposition, a window (26) is formed in the two layers of silicon oxide, within which window the surface of the silicon body is exposed, a layer of polycrystalline silicon (28) is deposited on the second layer of silicon oxide and in the window, and an emitter zone (29) is formed in the base zone through diffusion of a dopant from the layer of polycrystalline silicon. A protective top layer (23) which is resistant to a cleaning bath containing HF is provided on the second layer of silicon oxide before the layer of polycrystalline silicon is deposited. Thus a usual HF dip can be carried out before the layer of polycrystalline silicon is deposited, without the bipolar transistors in an integrated circuit exhibiting strongly differing electrical properties as a result of this.

Title: Ordonnancement hierarchique pour divers types de trafic atm
Inventor: PEI TONG-BI
IPC: H04Q11/04
Filed: 1998-11-17
Abstract: L'invention concerne un ordonnanceur pour système ATM (mode de transfert asynchrone) qui intervient pour de multiples types de trafic (ex: CBR, VBR, ABR) avec dans chaque cas une pluralité de connexions de trajets virtuels (VPC) sur une liaison ATM. L'ordonnanceur fait appel à une table d'ordonanncement statique et gère une ou plusieurs tables d'ordonnancement dynamique. La table statique hiérarchise les types de trafic et assure leurs ordonnancements respectifs pour chaque trajet virtuel. Pour chaque durée d'émission de cellule, l'ordonnanceur indexe une ligne de la table statique, attribuant par là même à un trajet virtuel la possibilité d'assurer l'émission à l'intérieur du créneau de la cellule correspondante. L'ordonnanceur examine un champ dans la ligne indexée de la table statique et recherche si une connexion pour circuit virtuel (VCC)avec service haute priorité a été effectuée au créneau actuel d'émission de la cellule, par exemple pour le trafic à débit binaire constant (CBR). Si tel est le cas, l'ordonnnanceur donne à cette connexion la possibilité d'émettre. De même, pendant le traitement pour chaque créneau d'émission de cellule, l'ordonnanceur ATM prend un pointeur dans une liste de liaisons tirée de la liste statique et récupère cette liste dans la mémoire. Cette liste permet d'identifier au moins une connexion VCC de type service à débit binaire constant (ABR). Pendant chaque durée d'émission de cellule - au cas où le traitement relatif aux services hautement prioritaires n'a pas permis d'émettre la cellule dans le créneau imparti - l'ordonnanceur sélectionne l'une des connexions VCC de type service à débit binaire constant, ceci, soit directement dans la liste de liaison à laquelle il a actuellement accès, soit dans une liste de travail établie à partir de listes de liaison consultées au cours d'une série de créneaux d'émission de cellule. L'ordonnanceur lance alors l'émission sur le réseau d'une cellule pour le circuit ABR sélectionné dans le créneau de temps d'émission correspondant de la cellule.

counting with the counter. The apparatus further
comprises a temperature sensor for checking the
temperature in the apparatus and for outputting a
temperature monitor signal, it notifies a user of an
abnormal temperature and of how to cope with it if the
temperature monitor signal is H and a cooling fan
monitor signal is L and stops the power supply if both
of the monitor signals are H, by which a user can be
notified of the abnormal temperature independently of
an abnormal operation of the cooling fan so as to

Abstract: A transistor having an electron quantum-wave
interference layer with plural periods of a pair of a first
layer W and a second layer B in a p-layer of an npn junction
structure. The second layer B has wider band gap than the
first layer W. Each thicknesses of the first layer W and
the second layer B is determined by multiplying by an even
number one fourth of quantum-wave wavelength of carriers in
each of the first layer W and the second layer B, the
carriers existing around the lowest energy level of the
second layer B. The quantum-wave interference layer
functions as an electron transmitting layer, and enables to
lower a dynamic resistance of the transistor notably. A
performance characteristics of a MESFET of an npn junction
structure, having the electron transmitting layer is
improved compared with a MESFET without an electrode
transmitting layer. Similarly, a transistor having a hole
reflecting layer, which has an improved performance
characteristics, can be obtained. Forming a hole reflecting
layer can be applied to a bipolar transistor or a MOSFET.

speed, the current vehicle acceleration, an empirically
