Abstract: A wireless communications system, together with devices to be clustered to make up such a system, is provided. The system operates a one-button (501) initiated installation procedure whereby a device not previously installed will determine whether it is within transmission range of a device cluster in installation mode (503-509). If so, the device adopts the cluster address and goes through a routine of selecting a device address unique within the cluster (515-519). If there is no existing cluster in installation mode, the device selects a network address different to any other within transmission range, as well as a device address (510-513). The same one-button procedure places an installed device in mode to initiate a new device to a cluster (520-524). Through a periodic enrolment procedure, performed by each device in a cluster, all devices are enabled to maintain their own list of required functionalities in other devices, and to address them directly, removing any requirement for one of the devices to act as a base station.

Title: Cellule de memoire remanente programmable a deux bits, a semi-conducteur et effacable electriquement dans laquelle le piegeage de charge asymetrique est utilise

Abstract: Mémoire morte rémanente, programmable effaçable électriquement (EEPROM) capable de mémoriser deux bits d'information, ayant un diélectrique non conducteur de piégeage de charge, tel que le nitrure de silicium, pris en sandwich entre deux couches de dioxyde de silicium faisant office d'isolants électriques. L'invention se rapporte aussi à un procédé de programmation, de lecture et d'effacement de la mémoire EEPROM. La couche de diélectrique non conducteur fonctionne comme un milieu de piégeage de charge. Une couche formant grille conductrice est placée sur la couche supérieure de dioxyde de silicium. Un bit gauche et un bit droit sont stockés dans des zones physiquement différentes de la zone de piégeage de charge, à proximité respectivement des régions gauche et droite de la cellule de mémoire. Chaque bit de la mémoire est programmé de manière classique, au moyen d'électrons chauds, par l'application de tensions de programmation sur la grille et sur la région droite ou gauche alors que l'autre région est mise à la terre. Les électrons chauds sont accélérés suffisamment pour qu'ils soient injectés dans la région de la couche diélectrique de piégeage à proximité de l'endroit où les tension de programmation ont été appliquées. Néanmoins, le dispositif est lu dans le sens opposé au sens d'écriture, des tensions moyennes sont appliquées sur la grille et sur la région droite ou gauche alors que l'autre région est à la terre. Deux bits peuvent être programmés et être lus en raison de la combinaison de tensions de grille relativement faibles et de la lecture dans le sens inverse. Ainsi, on réduit sensiblement le potentiel aux bornes de la région à charge piégée. On réduit par ailleurs nettement le temps de programmation en amplifiant l'effet de la charge piégée dans la région de piégeage localisée associée à chaque bit. De plus, chaque bit de la cellule de mémoire peut être effacé séparément par l'application de tensions d'effacement appropriées sur la grille et sur la région droite ou gauche de sorte que les électrons soient enlevés de la région de piégeage de charge correspondante de la couche de nitrure.

Abstract: The method involves using a robot (10) model with one or more parameters describing the theoretical spatial position of the robot depending on one or more control parameters. The parameters control the theoretical demanded spatial position of the robot, detecting the actual spatial position in operation using a sensor (K1,K2;50). Dynamic variations using the deviation of the detected actual position from the theoretical demanded position are detected, and the parameter(s) of the model are matched to compensate the dynamic variations. The theoretical spatial demanded position of the robot with the robot controller (100) is controlled according to the matched parameter(s). An Independent claim is also included for a robot controller.

Abstract: A radiation scattering measurement system, such as an x-ray diffraction system,
uses a modified beamstop, or attenuator, to allow simultaneous detection of energy
scattered from a sample and energy transmitted through the sample. Rather than
entirely blocking the transmitted beam energy from reaching a detector of the system,
the attenuator blocks only an outer portion of the transmitted beam, so that a shadow
region is created on the detector surrounding the detector region upon which the
transmitted beam is incident. This local region of minimum intensity defines a boundary
on the detector between the transmitted beam energy and the energy scattered from
the sample. The attenuator also reduces the per-unit-area intensity of the transmitted
beam using a broadband filter element, so that the transmitted beam does not saturate
the detector. A single detector frame is taken containing the beam energy and the
scattered energy, and the minimum intensity boundary between the two is located. The
measurements from the different detector regions are then used to determine the
relative intensity between the transmitted beam and the scattered energy, and a
transmission coefficient is calculated.

Abstract: A machine for fining/polishing ophthalmic lenses has a horizontal and
vertical plates rigidly fixed in an inverted T. Eccentric shafts journalled 180
degrees out of phase on the horizontal plate orbit tools on one side of the
vertical plate. A swing frame pivotally mounted on the other side of the vertical
plate has a horizontal shaft parallel to the vertical plate. Shafts orthogonal to
the horizontal shaft are journalled for see-saw motion about the horizontal shaft,
for rotational motion about their own longitudinal axes and for sliding motion
along the horizontal shaft. Block adapters on the orthogonal shafts hold lenses
in vertical alignment above the tools. Separate linkages reciprocate the
horizontal shaft in parallel relationship to the vertical plate and the orthogonal
shafts in orthogonal relationship to the vertical plate. The shaft linkages have
a timing ratio such that the block adapters travel in laterally reciprocating
horizontal figure eight patterns. The orthogonal shafts are adapted for
independent adjustment to permit horizontal and vertical realignment of the
block adapters. Air cylinders see-saw the orthogonal shafts to maintain a
desired pressure between the tools and lenses. A microprocessor storing data
representative of appropriate times of operation of the machine and pressures
between the tools and lenses for a plurality of lens materials and fining/polishing
operations automatically sets and controls the time of operation of the machine
and the pressure between the tools and lenses in response to input in directing
the material of the lens to be fined/polished and the selected fining/polishing
operation.

Abstract: A memory architecture is provided to enable parallel access along any dimension
of an  n -dimensional data array. To enable parallel access of  s  data elements along any
dimension, the data elements of  n -dimensional data array are mapped to  s  parallel
memory banks in such a way that consecutive  s  data elements along any dimension are
mapped to different memory banks. This mapping is defined by two functions, which
define the memory bank number and location within a memory bank for each data
element in  n -dimensional data array. The necessary and sufficient conditions, which the
mapping functions should satisfy in order to enable parallel data access, are described.
These generic function pairs are described for all combinations of ( n, s ). Two particular
instances of the mapping, namely circular permutation (rotation) along 0 th  dimension and
dyadic permutation along 0 th  dimension have been discussed in detail. The mapping
defined as dyadic permutation along 0 th  dimension holds only for values of  s , which is
integer power of 2. The mapping defined as circular rotation holds for any integer value
of  s . For these mappings, the basic architecture as well as its extensions are discussed.
The basic architecture is for  n -dimensional data array which has only  s  data elements
along each dimension, whereas the extensions are for data arrays with  m  data elements
along each dimension under the constraint that  m  is an integer multiple of  s .
