Abstract: Character behavior in a video game is driven by a character's attributes.
The character's attributes are classified as static attributes, dynamic attributes,
meta attributes, and emotional attributes. A user issues external stimuli, such as
voice commands, to a group of characters. One or more attributes associated with
each character are adjusted based upon the external stimuli. Thus, the user may
issue external stimuli to affect the behavior and actions of a group of characters.

Abstract: Methods for forming the lower electrode of a capacitor in a semiconductor circuit, and the capacitors formed by such methods are provided. The lower electrode is fabricated by forming a texturizing underlayer and then depositing a conductive material thereover. In one embodiment of a method of forming the lower electrode, the texturizing layer is formed by depositing a polymeric material comprising a hydrocarbon block and a silicon-containing block, over the insulative layer of a container, and then subsequently converting the polymeric film to relief or porous nanostructures by exposure to UV radiation and ozone, resulting in a textured porous or relief silicon oxycarbide film. A conductive material is then deposited over the texturizing layer resulting in a lower electrode have an upper roughened surface. In another embodiment of a method of forming the lower electrode, the texturizing underlayer is formed by depositing overlying first and second conductive metal layers and annealing the metal layers to form surface dislocations, preferably structured as a periodic network. A conductive metal is then deposited in gaseous phase, and agglomerates onto the surface dislocations of the texturizing layer, forming nanostructures in the form of island clusters. The capacitor is completed by depositing a dielectric layer over the formed lower electrode, and forming an upper capacitor electrode over the dielectric layer. The capacitors are particularly useful in fabricating DRAM cells.

Abstract: A contactor assembly useable on a component testing system for electrically contacting a terminal on a device under test (DUT) for parametric testing and eventual sorting as part of component batch processing. At least three contacts are provided to help insure at least two of them contact the DUT terminal, each of the contacts having a forward edge for physically and electrically contacting the DUT terminal. A contact-holding structure mountable on the component testing system supports the contacts in side-by-side relationship for independent movement of the first, second, and third forward edges toward and away from the DUT terminal. A first spring bias the first and third forward edges toward the DUT terminal independently of the second forward edge while a second spring biases the second forward edge toward the DUT terminal independently of the first and third edges in order to thereby help insure that at least two forward edges of the contacts bear against the DUT terminal for decreased stray serial impedance (SSI). One four-spring, twelve-blade embodiment of a multi-contact, constant-force contact assembly constructed according to the invention includes blade-type contacts separated by insulators that enable holding at least one blade at a guard potential. Roller contacts and pogo pin contacts fall within the scope of the invention.

Abstract: The invention relates to an intravenous oxygenator for oxygenating the blood. Said oxygenator comprises a fibre bundle, said fibres being respectively connected by a first connection to a gas supply and by a second connection to a gas outlet. According to the invention, the fibre bundle is twisted about a longitudinal axis of the oxygenator during operation by a relative rotation of the first connections of the fibres in relation to the second connections of the fibres. The invention also relates to an intravenous oxygenator for inserting into a vein, in which the connections are connected to a first or second fibre holder and can be displaced along the longitudinal axis of the oxygenator, said fibre holders being mounted so that they can rotate in relation to one another about the longitudinal axis of the oxygenator. Said configuration permits a particularly high gas exchange.

Abstract: A method for driving a plasma display panel. A discharge occurs at a
selected discharge cell by scan and address pulses (51,52) to form wall charges in an
address period. A setup pulse (53) is applied to a scan electrode in a sustain period.
A discharge occurs between sustain and scan electrodes by a wall voltage of
the sustain and scan electrodes and a voltage of the setup pulse when the
setup pulse is applied. A self discharge occurs between the sustain and scan
electrodes when the setup pulse falls, to form space charges. A sustain pulse (54) is
applied to the sustain and scan electrodes, and a sustain occurs by the space
charges and the sustain pulse. When a period for a sustain pulse (54) to maintain
a voltage Vs is short, the charges generated by the sustain are not accummulated
to the sustain electrode and the scan electrode, whereby the sustain is generated
without using the memory function of the wall charges. Accordingly an operation
corresponding to an address period can be executed when the sustain period is
finished without the need for a reset period.

segments. Carrier phase of the signal is estimated based upon the
overhead fields. Carrier phase estimates of random data field are determined based upon the
estimated phase values from the overhead fields, and upon both the past and future data
signals. Further, the frequency of the signal is estimated based upon the overhead fields
and eventually on the random data field.
