Patent EP-1059751-A2 (EP)
Inventor: SUGAWARA TOSHIKI
IPC: H04L69/40
Filed: 2000-06-07
Abstract: The object of the present invention is to achieve
interlayer-coordinated communication-line switching in a
communication system or network comprising two layers, each
having a switching function. In the interlayer-coordinated
communication-line switching, the features of the two
switching functions are utilized according to the line
conditions so that the interlayer-coordinated
communication-line switching can be made in a shorter time
and is more efficient and reliable than the switching in
accordance with the prior art. The object is achieved by
a communication apparatus which (1) is connected with a
network comprising (i) lower-layer apparatuses which are
connected with communication lines of a lower layer and
communication lines of an upper layer and have means for line
switching in the lower layer and (ii) upper-layer
apparatuses which are connected with the communication
lines of the upper layer and have means for line switching
in the upper layer and (2) detects line failure and
coordinates line switching by the line-switching means of
the lower- and upper-layer apparatuses by using failure
information on the lower- and upper-layer communication
lines.

Abstract: A carrier selective high resistance film is formed over
an entire area between a thick amorphous semiconductor
layer and a voltage application electrode, and an
electrodeless region extends throughout a circumference of
the voltage application electrode. As a result, dark currents
are suppressed, without impairing signal response
characteristics, by carrier selectivity of the carrier selective
high resistance film. Covered by the carrier selective high
resistance film, the thick amorphous semiconductor layer
maintains an effective surface resistance. The electrodeless
region extending circumferentially of the voltage application
electrode secures a sufficient surface voltage endurance to
suppress creeping discharges due to a bias voltage.
Consequently, sufficient detection sensitivity is secured by
applying a high bias voltage to the voltage application
electrode.

Abstract: A stencil is made by thermally perforating a stencil
material by the use of a thick film thermal head. The thermal
head includes an electrical insulating substrate and a glaze
layer superposed on a heat radiating plate in this order, a
resistance heater formed on the glaze layer to continuously
extend in a main scanning direction, a plurality of electrodes
of at least two lines which extend in a direction intersecting
the main scanning direction in contact with the resistance
heater and are alternately arranged in the main scanning
direction, and a protective layer which covers exposed part
of the resistance heater and the electrodes. The resistance
heater is not smaller than 1µm and not larger than 10µm in
thickness, and the space between each pair of adjacent
electrodes in the main scanning direction is not smaller than
20% and not larger than 60% of the center distance between the
adjacent electrodes. The stencil material is conveyed by a
conveyor in a sub-scanning direction relative to the thermal
head with the stencil material kept in contact with the thermal
head. The thermal head and the conveyor are controlled so that
the length in the sub-scanning direction of the resistance
heater at the portion between each pair of adjacent electrodes
is not smaller than 100% and not larger than 250% of the
sub-scanning pitch.

Abstract: A higher speed moving device 130 moves a
capillary 1201 at high speed. A low inertial moving and
pressing device 120 moves and presses the capillary with
low inertia. The high speed motion, and the moving and
pressing motion with the low inertia are carried out
independently of each other. Thus an inertia at the low
inertial moving and pressing device is reduced, whereby an
impact force when a melt ball 16 is driven by the low
inertial moving and pressing device into touch with on an
electrode 1031 of a semiconductor integrated circuit 103 is
restricted, thus enabling stable formation for minute bumps.
On the other hand, operations other than pressing the melt
ball to the electrode and joining the melt ball are
conducted by driving the capillary by the higher speed
moving device, so that a productivity is improved without
increasing a production Tact.

Abstract: A method and system are described that allows fund managers and brokers
to exchange messages so that they may buy, sell and allocate securities
instruments. The fund manager creates a first message that the broker responds to
and creates a second message. The two messages are matched so as to form a
record of the securities transaction. Third parties may obtain access to the various
messages to either observe the various stages of the transaction or provide
authorization for the transaction to occur. Once a match has occurred, other
messages are generated and forwarded to custodians and clearing agents so that
the transaction may be settled. Finally, even after a match has occurred in a
transaction, it is possible for an individual to request that that transaction be
amended, cancelled or kept.

Abstract: A 16B/18B low disparity code is described. The 16-bit input word is
split into two bytes, i.e., into two 8-bit words, and each byte is mapped to a 9-bit
word. The image of each input byte under the mapping depends at least in part on
its disparity, and also in some cases on the disparity of the other word. 
     Certain of the images under the mapping are then inverted. The decision
whether to invert an image depends, at least in part, on the running digital sum
(RDS) of the output. The RDS is the sum of all 1's in the data stream from its
beginning (or from a designated starting point). 
     Significantly, all possible input words are grouped, by disparity, into four
categories. The rule for mapping of input words is different for each of the four
categories.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and articles of manufacture consistent with the present
invention assist a programmer in the optimization of an application program by
displaying information about memory use in a manner useful to the programmer. A
programmer selects an application program that he wishes to optimize. The application
program is submitted to an instrumentation process that inserts additional instructions
into the code of the application program so that, when executed, the instrumented code
produces an output file, called a trace output file. The trace output file contains
information about memory accesses. The trace output file is then submitted to a second
program, or visualizer, that visually displays the memory accesses using a different visual
effect for each type of memory access operation. The visualizer may be run at different
speeds, forwards or backwards, paused, or may step through the memory accesses frame-by-frame.
This visual representation of memory accesses allows programmers to
recognize patterns of memory use that can be used to optimize the application program.

Abstract: A silicon nitride film and a silicon oxide film are formed, and, using
an overlying resist film as a mask, are subjected to dry etching
to form via-holes. The silicon nitride film is subjected to dry etching
to expose the surface of a copper film and the resist residue
is removed. A tungsten film is then formed to bury the via-holes
with tungsten. Excess tungsten film is removed by CMP and
rinsing, thereby forming via-plugs that are composed of the
tungsten film that remains in the via-holes. Silicon oxide film
is formed over this structure. Using a resist film as a mask,
wiring trenches are formed in the silicon oxide film. The resist
film and etching residue are then removed. Amine removing
solution that has entered seams in the tungsten film is vaporized
by a heat treatment. A copper film is embedded in the wiring
trenches by a damascene method, thereby forming damascene
copper wiring.
