Abstract: A temporary store for the storage of sheets (2) for a specific time has an acceptance and a transport cycle and comprises a feed system (7) and a transport system (8). In the acceptance cycle, the intermediate store waits until a first detector (52) detects the presence of a sheet (2) at an entrance (11) and initiates an acceptance operation in the feed system (7) via a control unit (6). The feed system (7) layers the sheets (2), fed by a conveying system (4), to form a stack (12) in the transport system which is blocked in the acceptance cycle. As soon as the acceptance cycle is concluded, the control unit (6) decides whether the transport system (8) is to guide the stack (12) into a cassette (9) or into a rejection tray (10), and switches on driving means of the transport system (8), the stack (12) being transported in the predetermined direction. The intermediate store subsequently returns to the acceptance cycle. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Patients in hospitals are provided with identification bracelets (2) which display a patient identity number in a machine-readable form, such as a bar code (13). Blood or other samples are taken at bedside from patients by a technician, nurse, or the like who carries a microprocessor-operated device which optically scans the coded patient identification bracelet. When the patient ID bracelet is read, the device lists the different blood tubes (1) that are to be filled on a display screen. The device has a fixedly mounted onboard scanner (31) which scans a preprinted bar code (7) on the specimen tube (1) which bar code identifies the type of tube being used. Just before, or after, the specimen is drawn, the tube is read by the onboard scanner (31), and a label is printed and placed on the tube, which label includes the patient's name; the patient's I.D. number; the tests to be performed on the specimen sample; the time and date the specimen was drawn; and the size and type of tube. The wrist band barcode ensures that the correct patient is being sampled, and the tube bar code ensures that the specimen drawer does not put the specimen label on the wrong tube.

Abstract: In the coding of image data corresponding to a raster of pixel values a generalized run length coding is used in respect of the difference between the pixel values in the raster line to be coded and the pixel values in the same position in the preceding raster line. 
     In multi-value pixels (grey values), the generalized run length coding comprises an approximation of the course of the differences as a function of the position in the raster line with a linear function. The code then contains the number of pixels and a characterisation of the approximating function (90). 
     In binary pixels (on/off) the length is simply determined of the series of pixel values each equal to the pixel value in the same position in the preceding raster line. 
     In a particularly effective embodiment, this generalized runlength coding with respect to the preceding line is combined with generalized run length coding of the pixel values within a line. In this case both these methods are each time performed in parallel, and the method delivering the most effective code (that is the longest series of pixels, compensated for the length of the code itself) is selected for the actual encoding.
