Abstract: A buffered optical fiber (20) includes an optical fiber (21) comprising a core and a
cladding. Typically, the optical fiber is enclosed by at least one layer (23) of coating
material. The optical fiber is enclosed by a plastic buffer layer (30). Interposed between
the optical fiber and the buffer layer is a boundary layer (40). Importantly, the boundary
layer of the present invention is a low modulus material applied as a substantially thick
layer relative to the buffer layer. In a preferred embodiment, the wall thickness of the
boundary layer is about one-forth to one-third the wall thickness of the buffer layer.
However, depending on the particular materials selected for the buffer and boundary
layer, the wall thickness of the boundary layer can be as thin as one-twenty-fifth (1/25) of
the buffer layer. As a result of the present design, there is sufficient adhesion between the
buffer layer and the underlying coating material to maintain the buffer layer in place
during normal use of the buffered optical fiber. On the other hand, the adhesion is low
enough so that the buffer layer may be removed upon the application of reasonably low
mechanical stripping forces. Advantageously, the boundary layer also allows the selective
removal of the optical fiber coating material as well as the plastic buffer layer.

Abstract: A printer driver is provided- in a host computer. When a print job occurs, the printer driver automatically selects the format of a plotting command to be output to a printer. As the command format, there are available two kinds of formats: a high-level printer control language format (for example, PDL), and an intermediate code format expressed in an intermediate language. When the latter format is selected, the printer driver converts a plotting command from an application to an intermediate code and then outputs the intermediate code to the printer. The printer converts the intermediate code to another intermediate code specific to the printer by a very simple processing, and then develops the intermediate code to a bit image, thereby enabling high speed printing.

Abstract: An audio enhancement system and method for use receives a group of multi-channel audio signals and provides a simulated surround sound environment through playback of only two output signals. The multi-channel audio signals comprise a pair of front signals intended for playback from a forward sound stage and a pair of rear signals intended for playback from a rear sound stage. The front and rear signals are modified in pairs by separating an ambient component of each pair of signals from a direct component and processing at least some of the components with a head-related transfer function. Processing of the individual audio signal components is determined by an intended playback position of the corresponding original audio signals. The individual audio signal components are then selectively combined with the original audio signals to form two enhanced output signals for generating a surround sound experience upon playback.

IPC: C08G18/42

Abstract: Polyesters of organic hydroxy acids and their derivatives are, because of their ester linkages prone to hydrolysis, an important group of potentially biodegradable polymers. The mechanical properties of thermoplastic materials based on them have, however, been inferior for many applications, especially when melt processability is required. By the present method which comprises a two-step reaction and the use of a linking monomer it is possible to produce copolyester based polyurethanes from lactic acid and another organic hydroxy acid having a long flexible hydrocarbon chain in its molecules or corresponding lactone, as  epsilon -caprolactone. By the proper choice of reaction parameters one can thus get materials which are unexpectedly strong, tough and/or elastic. By melt blending inherently brittle biodegradable polymers with a copolyester based polyurethane according to the invention it has been possible to prepare materials with significantly improved impact strength.
