Abstract: In a window oriented operating system, a graphical user interface
which provides a "shrink button" to switch a window from a normal status
where the whole window is represented to a reduced status where only a
portion of the window is displayed while maintaining at least a partial
operability of the commands of the window. The advantage of such a
shrink button is that the user could be not interested in having the
whole window displayed but he needs to keep the window commands operable.
The user can so reduce the window to the command area only saving space
on the desktop and improving the performances of the application, since
the feedback is no longer required. In the image processing application
this could be very useful.

Abstract: In a method for transmitting digital data of images, etc., under the condition
n > m and k < n-m, when the synchronisation data is not transmitted, the image data of
"m" bits for the respective pixels are translated into n-bit code words in which there is
no run equal to or exceeding "k" identical logical bits even if the code words are
sequentially time-division multiplexed and transmitted in any combination, and then
time-division multiplexed and transmitted. On the other hand, when the
synchronisation data is transmitted, the m-bit pixel image data is directly time-division
multiplexed, and to this data there is added a serial code which is composed of n-m bits
and includes a specific bit string which is a continuous run of "k" bits of the identical
logic value. Thereby, it becomes possible to perform transmission and reception of the
digital data and the synchronisation data through one transmission line without a break
of transmission or reception of the image data.

Abstract: System and apparatus particularly suited for tracking a radiopharmaceutical
present within a lymph duct and locating a sentinel node within which the
radiopharmaceutical has concentrated. A smaller, straight, hand-held probe is
employed carrying two hand actuable switches. For tracking procedures, the probe is
moved in an undulatory manncr wherein the location of the radiopharmaceutical
containing duct is determined by observing a graphics readout developed preferably
employing a circularly accessed data memory. When the region of the sentinel node is
approached, a switch on the probe device is actuated by the surgeon to carry out a
sequence of squelching operations until a small node locating region is defined. At that
point in the procedure, the straight small probe will be pointed at and in adjacency with
the radiopharmaceutical containing sentinel node. The probe-mounted switches are
configured to apply preset current levels upon the probe pre-amplifier power supply.
These levels are detected, identified by a discriminator and emulating signals are
generated. A sterilizable remote switch provides a squelch threaded level trim function.

Abstract: The communication cost for image
information transmission from a facsimile machine
connected to the international PSTN to an overseas
destination is significantly reduced by causing a

installed in the same country as the transmitting
machine to perform a repeater operation for
transferring the image information to a second
repeater Internet facsimile machine (FI1, FI2)
installed in the same country as the recipient

communication charge is incurred for the image
information transfer between the repeater Internet
facsimile machines (FI1, FI2).

Abstract: A system for recording AVS data (Audio Video and Subcode data) onto a
magnetic tape that contains previously recorded data. When performing an AVS
insertion according to the invention, the ITI (Insert and Track Information) portion of
the previously recorded data is preserved while the AVS portion of the previously
recorded data is overwritten. In order to match the frame phase of the old ITI data with
the frame phase of the new AVS data the leading edge of a head switching signal is
monitored. By counting the number of occurrences of the leading edge of the head
switching signal, cuing the insertion of the new AVS data to the count, and resetting the
count upon the occurrence of a frame change in the previously recorded data, the new
AVS data and the previously recorded ITI data are frame synchronized.

Abstract: A method and device for acquiring data related
to topography of a medium (14 and 44) includes projecting
light, allowably from more than one direction, onto the
surface of the medium at an angle (112 and 114) of less
than sixteen degrees relative to the surface and imaging
the surface. For example, the imaging sensor (24 and 26;
73) may be an array of sensor elements that is used to
determine navigation of a hand-held scanner along an
original. By introducing light at an angle of less than
sixteen degrees, surface irregularities cast shadows that
form a high contrast illumination pattern along the
surface of the medium. The navigation sensor detects
multi-element variations (64) of intensity of scattered
light from the surface with respect to positions along the
surface, so that the Nyquist criteria are adequately
satisfied. Typically, the light is collimated incoherent
light, but this is not critical. The illumination angle
can be established by using a prism (31; 38). The prism
may have an antireflective thin film coating on one or
more prism faces. The employment of a prism provides a
number of advantages, such as use of a transparent surface
in contact with the media and raising the illumination
source(s) away from the media.

Abstract: The invention provides for a receiver (10) for recovering digital data from a
transmitted balanced signal where the balanced signal includes a first plurality of pulses,
each pulse having a first pulse width. The receiver includes an input circuit (20), a buffer
circuit (40), and a calibration circuit (60). The input circuit (20) is arranged to receive the
transmitted signal and includes a first differential amplifier for amplifying a first signal
(22), a second differential amplifier (24) for amplifying a second signal, and a converter
(26) for receiving the amplified first signal and amplified second signal and then
generating a third signal. The first and second signals are included within the transmitted
signal. The buffer circuit (40) receives and buffers the third signal, and outputs a fourth
signal including a second plurality of pulses which have a second plurality of pulse widths.
The calibration circuit (60) receives the fourth signal. In response to the second plurality
of pulse widths being unequal to the first pulse width, the calibration circuit (60) generates
a calibration signal. The calibration signal is received by the buffer circuit (40) as an input.
The buffer circuit (40) utilizes the calibration signal to modify the fourth signal so that
each of the second plurality of pulse widths is approximately equal to the first pulse width.

Abstract: In an apparatus useful for sealing layers of a web comprised of plastic film layers
to one another in a bag-making machine, a sealing drum (20) having a cylindrical surface
is employed. A sealing blanket (30) is deployed about plural blanket rolls and about the
sealing drum (20) so that a substantial portion of the cylindrical surface of the sealing drum
is wrapped by the sealing blanket with the wrapping surface (32) facing the cylindrical
surface while the remaining portion of the cylindrical surface is not wrapped thereby
at any given time. A nip roll (50) acts together with one of the blanket rolls so as to
define a nip. An idle roll (52) is located near the nip (N). The sealing apparatus is operable
so that the sealing blanket is drawn through the nip (N) with the wrapping surface facing
the nip roll, so that the web is drawn through the nip, between the nip roll and the
wrapping surface of the sealing blanket, then around the idle roll, and then around the
sealing drum (70), between the wrapping surface (32) of the sealing blanket and the cylindrical
surface (22) of the sealing drum. The nip roll is pressed pneumatically with an adjustable
pressure toward the blanket roll acting together with the nip roll, whereby the nip roll
controls the tension on the web being drawn through the nip.
