Abstract: An improved structure of a solid oxide electrolyte fuel cell (SOFC) is disclosed. A generating layer (21) in the SOFC consists of three layers of a fuel electrode (23), an oxide layer (22) and an oxygen electrode (24), and is shaped into a dimpled structure having recessed portions (25) on its both surfaces. Protruded portions (26a) on the side of the fuel electrode (23) are electrically bonded with an interconnector layer (28) via a first conductive adhesive (27), while protruded portions (26b) on the side of the oxygen electrode (24) of another generating layer (21) are electrically bonded with the same interconnector layer (28) via a second conductive adhesive (29). A plurality of generating layers (21) and a plurality of interconnector layers (28) are alternately stacked and they are electrically bonded in the above-described manner. Preferably the first conductive adhesive (27) is made of material common to the fuel electrode (23) and the second conductive adhesive (29) is made of material common to the oxygen electrode (24). Owing to the improved structure, occurrence of lateral flows of electrons in the interconnector layers (28) having a large resistance can be suppressed, hence an electrical resistance can be reduced, and also amounts of materials of the oxygen electrode and the fuel electrode can be made small.

Abstract: A computer system provides handling of positive and negative overflow. A first arithmetic operation is performed on a first n-bit unsigned binary operand and a second n-bit signed binary operand to produce an n-bit unsigned binary result. Overflow detection logic circuitry (300,310,320,330) within the arithmetic logic unit (26) detects positive overflow or negative overflow resulting from the arithmetic operation. When there is a positive overflow, saturation logic (340,341,350,351) replaces the output of the two's complement adder (60,61,65,66,69) with a value of 2 n -1. When there is a negative overflow, the saturation logic (340,341,350,351) replaces the output of the two's complement adder (60,61,65,66,69) with a value of 0. In the same embodiment, a second arithmetic operation is performed on two n-bit signed binary operands to produce an n-bit signed binary result. The arithmetic operation is for example an addition or subtraction performed by a two's complement adder (60,61,65,66,69). Overflow detection logic circuitry (300,310,320,330) within the arithmetic logic unit (26) detects positive overflow or negative overflow resulting from the arithmetic operation. When there is a positive overflow, saturation logic (340,341,350,351) replaces the output of the two's complement adder (60,61,65,66,69) with a value of 2 n-1 -1. When there is a negative overflow, the saturation logic (340,341,350,351) replaces the output of the two's complement adder (60,61,65,66,69) with a value of -2 n-1 .

Abstract: A system is described for the use of a ribozyme as a diagnostic tool for detecting the presence of a nucleic acid, protein, or other molecule, in which the formation of an active ribozyme and cleavage of an assayable marker is dependent on the presence or absence of the specific target molecule. The essential component is a ribozyme specifically but reversibly binding a selected target in combination with a labelled co-target, preferably immobilized on a support structure. When both the target and co-target are bound, the ribozyme cleaves the label from the co-target, which is then quantifiable. Since the ribozyme is reversibly bound by target and co-target, it can reassociate with additional co-target, cleaving more label, thereby amplifying the reaction signal. In one embodiment, the target is a nucleic acid hybridizing to complementary sequences that form part of the ribozyme; in a second embodiment, the target is a protein or other macromolecule which is bound by interactions with a portion of the ribozyme molecule. In another embodiment, a thermostable ribozyme is used, so that improperly bound ribozyme is destabilized and inactive at elevated temperatures. A method for isolating regulatable ribozymes is also disclosed. The regulatable ribozymes are useful in the method for detecting the presence of a specific macromolecule, or can be used in in vitro or in vivo methods for inactivation or activation of the cleavage of target RNA molecules. <IMAGE>   <IMAGE>   <IMAGE>

Abstract: A packet transmission system (100) for reducing request traffic contention and the likelihood of resource misallocation includes a communications controller (110) and a plurality of remote requesting units (112) requesting packet transmission services. In response to receipt of a request (302), the controller (110) transmits a grant (306) to a requesting unit (112) when packet transmission resources (304 and 310) are available or a request acknowledgment (306) when packet transmission resources (304 and 310) are unavailable. Each remote unit (112) comprises apparatus structure and method steps for transmitting requests (302) to the controller (110) and starting a first timer having an interval (T) determined as a function of a number (Q) of outstanding requests (302). Upon receipt of an acknowledgment (306), the remote unit (112) starts a second timer having an interval (T1) longer than the inverval (T). Upon expiration of either the first timer or the second timer, the remote unit (112) will then and only then transmit a duplicate request (302). By limiting the number of duplicate requests transmitted by a remote unit (112), the present invention operates to reduce request traffic contention and the likelihood of resource misallocation.
