Abstract: The invention relates to a device and a method for detecting ammonia, in particular for detecting an NH3 emanation in a catalyst assembly (1). According to the invention, a gas, in particular, an exhaust gas of a lean-driven internal combustion engine, is fed by a first gas-supply device and ammonia is fed by a second gas-supply device to an SCR catalyst (12). A first element, in particular, an oxidation catalyst (10) is provided which first, at least substantially, oxidizes gas components which can be oxidized and which are contained in the gas. In addition, a gas (5'') which emanates from the SCR catalyst (12) is analyzed by a second element, in particular, a gas sensor (15) with regard to the content of components which can be oxidized. The gas sensor (15) detects gas components which can be oxidized preferably in a non-selective manner and is connected via a processing unit (16) and a control unit (17) to a metering system (13) which controls the supply of ammonia.

Abstract: A program development support apparatus
includes a CPU, event detection section, trace data
generation section, and trace memory. The CPU executes
a target program and outputs instruction
address/instruction code data. The event detection
section asserts and outputs a section trace start signal
upon detecting that the instruction address/instruction
code data matches a predetermined instruction address or
instruction code set as an event condition in advance.
When an instruction code of the instruction
address/instruction code data is a branch instruction,
or the section trace start signal is active, the trace
data generation section outputs an uncompressed
instruction address as trace data. When the instruction
address is not the branch instruction, and the section
trace start signal is not active, the trace data
generation section generates a plurality of compressed
instruction addresses by compressing the instruction
address and then combines the compressed instruction
addresses and outputs them as the trace data. The trace
memory stores the trace data from the trace data
generation section.

Abstract: Bei Sonnenkollektoren des Standes der Technik fließt eine durch Sonneneinstrahlung zu erwärmende Flüssigkeit in eine Einspeiseleitung, von dieser in eine erste Gruppe von Absorberelementen, dann in eine Umlenkleitung, und von dieser über eine zweite Gruppe von Absorberelementen in die Verteilerleitung zurück und zu einer Aufnahmeleitung. Die Verteilerleitung weist in der Mitte eine Dichtung auf, so daß sämtliche Flüssigkeit durch die Absorberelemente strömt. Ein Nachteil tritt auf, wenn mehrere Sonnenkollektoren hintereinander geschaltet werden, weil dann die gesamte Flüssigkeit die Absorberelemente in allen Sonnenkollektoren durchströmt, so daß die Durchströmungsgeschwindigkeit entsprechend hoch sein muß oder die Querschnitte der Absorberelemente vergrößert werden müssen. Um dies zu vermeiden, sieht die Erfindung zwischen der Einspeiseleitung (14, 18) und der Aufnahmeleitung (26, 16) einen Durchfluß (32) mit einem Querschnitt derart vor, daß ein bestimmter Anteil der Flüssigkeit direkt ohne den Umweg über ein Absorberelement (20, 24) von der Einspeiseleitung (14, 18) zur Aufnahmeleitung (26, 16) fließen kann. <IMAGE>

Abstract: An electronic message processing system in which routing
tags are used to determine how electronic messages are
routed, distributed, or otherwise processed by the system.
The association of a routing tag with an electronic
message indicates to the system that the tagged electronic
message does not need to undergo classification in order
to determine how to process the message. In particular,
routing tags are associated with electronic messages which
have already been classified and which are subsequently
sent out of the system to return at a later time. The
routing tag prevents the message from having to be reclassified
upon its return to the system. Reducing the
number of messages that are classified, or re-classified,
is advantageous since the classification process, which
typically involves text analysis, is a time consuming
process.

Abstract: A conventional interleaver, based on a stack of waveplates, relies on the orientation and the
birefringence of the waveplates to differentiate the polarizations of one set of channels
from another, so that the one set of channels can be separated from the other. The present
invention relates to a virtual waveplate that is used to replace a birefringent waveplate. A
virtual waveplate imposes a phase delay between the extraordinary ray and the ordinary ray
by separating one from the other and differentiating the actual path lengths taken thereby,
before recombining them. An interleaver constructed with the virtual waveplates of the
present invention can be substantially a-thermal and potentially chromatic dispersion free.
