Abstract: A system and method for enabling a zero configuration nomadic wireless and wired computing environment presenting a just works experience is presented. The system examines predefined user preference or profile settings to determine to which of a competing number of wireless networks available it should connect, and what type of authentication should be used for such connection. Nomadic wireless computing between infrastructure wireless networks and ad hoc wireless networks may be accomplished without further user intervention required in an auto mode. Also, both infrastructure only and ad hoc only modes are available through the system of the invention. Further, the user may set a preference for infrastructure or ad hoc modes in the auto mode. With an infrastructure mode preference set, the system will automatically detect and transfer connectivity to a newly available infrastructure wireless network if the user was previously operating off-line or in ad hoc mode. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A Δ Σ -type analog-digital (A-D) converter is
used for A-D conversion of a blood sugar level measured
by a blood sugar sensor. Using the measurement
result of an offset voltage in a current-voltage converter
enables compensation for the offset voltage. Moreover, using
the measurement result of a blood sugar level obtained with a
current being applied to a dummy resistor, i.e., an element
that simulates electric characteristics of the blood sugar
level sensor, enables compensation for variation in the
measured value between individual devices resulting from
manufacturing variation. As a result, a more precise blood
sugar level measuring device having higher measurement
accuracy can be implemented.

Abstract: Formed bottles (10) are simultaneously cooled within
the blow molds (12) of an I.S. machine on their inner and
outer surfaces. Inner surface cooling continues from the
time a takeout mechanism (140) of the machine grips each
bottle (Fig. 17), through a displacement course to a

A deadplate mechanism (240) includes a canister (220)
which encloses each bottle at the deadplate location and
moves to the conveyor location with the takeout mechanism
and cools the outer surface of the bottle until the bottle
is displaced from the conveyor location (Fig. 20) to the

Abstract: A brake cable connecting apparatus is structured to prevent the
inadvertent disengagement of a cable end from the brake lever while
transporting of a drum brake without additional parts and damaging the cable
end and the brake lever. That is, the bridge portion 11e of the strut 11 extends
above the free end 12e of the brake lever 12 leaving a clearance 23, between
the bridge portion 11e and the free end 12e, smaller than a diameter of the
cable end 16a. Accordingly, even if the cable end 16a is about to be
disengaged from the cable end engagement recesses 12g of the free end 12e,
a further movement of the cable end 16a is prevented by cooperation between
the bridge portion 11e and the free end 12e. Accordingly, if the amount of
rotation of the brake shoe 12 is sufficient to fill clearances A1, A2 existing
between the brake shoes 13, 14 and the brake shoe engagement groove 11a,
12b, the clearance 23 is still smaller than the diameter of the cable end 16a.
While further rotation of the brake lever 12 spreads the brake shoes 13, 14
open to reduce and fill the shoe clearance A3, the clearance 23 becomes larger
than the diameter of the cable end 16a.

Abstract: The invention provides a full-contact type exposure device that allows high adherence of a photo mask with a board. 
     Upon completion of prescribed processing such as positioning, a controller 99 controls a moving mechanism 21 to move a platen 20 upward, thereby moving the photo mask 1 and a board 2 closer, and to stop at a position where a sealed space is formed between the two. At the same time a controller 99 starts vacuuming by controlling a vacuum pump 51. By this vacuum the pressure in the space between the photo mask 1 and board 2 becomes negative, and the photo mask 1 bends downward with its center area sagging and contacting the board 2. The controller 99 controls a cam drive mechanism 31 to rotate cams 30 while vacuuming, allowing the photo mask 1 to gradually make contact with the board 2 from the center area to its periphery while pushing out the air gradually from the center to the periphery, thereby completing full contact with the board 2.

Abstract: In accordance with the present invention, a novel composite
prosthesis comprises a vein (26) and a cylindrical-shaped
member (50). The vein is a vein segment removed from a
patient and the cylindrical-shaped member, preferably an
expandable stent (50), is glued, sutured, or in some other
fashion affixed to the outside surface of the vein (26). 
     The vein segment of the combination is referred to as a vein
graft or vein implant to distinguish it from the vascular
structure into which it is inserted as a part of the
combination. This composite prosthesis is then introduced
inside a body passageway, such as diseased arterial segment
or inside a saphenous vein graft segment which by-passes an
arterial segment. It may be introduced by placement over a
balloon catheter (72,74). When the balloon (74) is
inflated, the stent (50) and the vein graft (26) expand. 
     The stent prevents recoil and keeps the vein graft tissue in
place, while the vein graft forms a new inner lining for the
vessel. It is preferred that the vein graft portion of the
composite prosthesis be the patient's own vein.
