Abstract: A turnstile FIFO stores data packet from each of a number of separate ordered sets in a
generally circular list structure. A select data packet can be dequeued if no older data packet of
the same ordered set is stored in the turnstile FIFO. The data packets are stored in the turnstile
FIFO in a globally sequential order such that older data packets precede younger data packets
regardless of membership in the one or more ordered sets. Turnstile logic determines whether the
selected data packet is the oldest data packet of a given ordered set by determining set
membership of all older data packets stored in the turnstile FIFO. Older data packets are stored
in positions within the turnstile FIFO which precede the position of the selected data packet. If
no older data packet is a member of the same set of which the selected data packet is a member,
the selected data packet can be dequeued from the turnstile FIFO without violated the sequential
order of data packets of the ordered set to which the data packet belong. Conversely, if an older
data packet is of the same ordered set, the selected data packet cannot be dequeued. A turnstile
FIFO according to the present invention can be particularly useful in routing traffic within a
crossbar between various devices.

Abstract: It is a prefabricated insulating perlite slab of reverse insulation
having as its principal ingredient, the expanded perlite
whose manufacturing principle has been invented in order to
cancel the weaknesses of the conventional perlite insulation
and which is used for the insulation (heat-insulation and
sealing ) of normal accessibility terraces and slopping roofs
of buildings, with reversed perlite insulation (with reversed
insulation, with permeability) for healthy living conditions. 
     Its construction know-how, transforms the unified water-absorbing
heat-insulating layer of the conventional
insulation, into small water-absorbing heat-insulating layers (1)
which are sealed between them, with the reinforced concrete
slab (3) of the terrace, with the balustrade of the terrace and
with the external environment, having as result, the
protection of the heat-insulation (the success of the insulation). 
     It is water tightening, heat-insulating and simultaneously
sealing, while its mass is water absorbant. 
     It has a light weight (it does not affect the anti-seismicity of
the building), it is practicable, heat-insulating, permeable (it
respires) and fire-resistant. 
     It is manufactured in 4 types, A, B, C/Γ and D.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un transistor bipolaire du type NPN ayant une région active à la surface du composant, autour duquel on voit, le long de la surface, une configuration classique de zones à couche d'oxyde épais (18). La région active est partiellement recouverte d'une couche d'isolement en surface, comprenant de préférence une couche de nitrure (34). Une région tenant lieu de base dans la région active est matérialisée par une ouverture en forme de caisson, réalisée en procédé lithographique, dans la couche d'isolement en surface. S'agissant d'un transistor latéral bipolaire du type NPN sur lequel ce sont plutôt les régions émetteur et collecteur que l'on entoure de telles zones à couche d'oxyde épais, il est possible de définir lesdites régions d'une manière correspondante, en procédé lithographique, sous la forme d'ouvertures dans une couche d'isolement en surface. Dans les cas considérés, la présence d'ouvertures en forme de caisson permet de réduire la capacité de la jonction base-collecteur et celle de la jonction émetteur-collecteur, ce qui améliore les caractéristiques haute fréquence des transistors. Parallèlement, on utilise une région de la couche de nitrure de silicium (34) comme diélectrique efficace dans un condensateur fabriqué simulltanément. Il est possible d'ajouter au transistor du type NPN un fin cordon latéral d'isolement en nitrure entre une connexion de l'émetteur et une connexion de la base. Sur la même plaquette en semiconducteur, il est possible de réaliser des bornes de connexion au substrat, de type spécial, profond et étroit, de manière à assurer l'isolement des régions du composant. Pour isoler ces composants, on peut utiliser des tranchées (22), lesquelles peuvent avoir au niveau de leurs parois latérales un laminé dont le fond est un oxyde (23) et la partie supérieure un nitrure (25), de manière à faciliter l'attaque liée au procédé planar et pour constituer une barrière de diffusion.
