Abstract: A powertrain assembly for an automotive
vehicle having an internal combustion engine and
transmission gearing (26,30,32,34,48,50,52,54) for
delivering engine torque to traction wheels of a vehicle.
An electric induction motor (14) is situated in the torque
flow path between the engine (10) and the transmission (12).
The induction motor (14) complements engine torque which
permits the engine (10) to be turned off when the vehicle is
at rest, thereby improving fuel economy and reducing
undesirable exhaust gas emissions from the internal
combustion engine. The torque multiplication that would
normally be available from a hydrokinetic torque converter
in the transmission is essentially replaced with auxiliary
launch torque supplied by the induction motor during vehicle
startup. The induction motor, during those operating modes
of the vehicle when inductor motor torque is not required to
deliver driving torque, functions as an alternator during
periods of regenerative braking with the internal combustion
engine inactive with the vehicle in a coast mode.

Abstract: A device for exposure of the peripheral area of a film circuit board in which the edge of the
copper foil can be exactly determined and the position of the irradiation area can be
controlled with high precision is obtained in that a resist (R) in the peripheral area of a
conductive foil located on a film circuit board (TP) is irradiated with exposure light and is
thus exposed, while the film circuit board (TP) in which there are perforation holes (PH) with
a stipulated pitch to one another, is transported, in that an optical detector (4) is used as the
sensor for determining the edge part of the conductive foil, in that the sensor light emitted
onto the edge part of the conductive foil is received by a light receiving part (4b), in that the
optical detector (4b) is subjected to motion control in the direction which orthogonally
intersects the transport direction, such that the amount of light reception is constant and in
that the area irradiated with the exposure light is moved by the same amount as the optical
detector (4), and thus, the peripheral area is exposed. The length of the sensor light in the
transport direction of the irradiation area on the film circuit board TP is determined by the
pitch between the perforation holes multiplied by a natural number. In this way, the resist (R)
of the peripheral area of the conductive foil can be exposed according to the edge position of
the conductive foil.

Abstract: A plasma display panel (42) is disclosed, in which a plurality of discharge electrodes (40)
having transparent electrodes (18) connected to bus electrodes (44) are arranged on the inner
side of a front substrate. Alternatively, discharge electrodes having transparent electrodes and
capable of discharging between their respective neighboring electrodes on both sides are

of the display surface where discharge-generated light radiates out to the exterior. Shielding
parts (46) for shielding incident light from the exterior are formed on the transparent
electrodes (18), or along the front substrate. Accordingly, the shielding parts (46) reduce the
surface reflection to improve the bright room contrast ratio. Forming the shielding parts (46)
with the same material as that of the bus electrodes (44) prevents fabrication processes from
becoming complicated. The areas of the shielding parts (46) can be varied with the
luminescent colors of cells, to change the luminescent brightness by the cell.

Abstract: Die Herstellung von optischen Wellenleitern auf Wellenleitersockeln
einer Dicke d, auf dem der optische Wellenleiter strukturiert ist, die
z.B. aus einer entsprechend strukturierten Pufferschicht ausgebildet werden,
verringert die Doppelbrechung, die durch thermisch induzierte Spannungen
beim Glasherstellungsprozess entsteht. Daher kann die Konzentration an
Dotierstoffen (z.B. Bor-Atome) in der Deckschicht zur Erzielung einer
doppelbrechungsfreien optischen Komponente reduziert werden, da nicht
mehr eine vollständige Anpassung des thermischen Ausdehnungskoeffizienten
des Glases an den des Silizium-Substrats notwendig ist. Dies hat
den enormen Vorteil, dass optische Komponenten, die solche optischen
Wellenleiter aufweisen, langfristig gegen äußere Einflüsse stabil bleiben.

Abstract: A bidirectional database replication system includes a plurality of nodes. Each
transaction at an originating node is paused prior to a commit operation. Ready to commit
tokens are sent to the other nodes in the system to determine if the other nodes are prepared for
the commit operation for the paused transaction. If all of the ready to commit tokens properly
return to the originating node from the other nodes, thereby indicating that the other nodes are
prepared for the commit operation, then the transaction is commited. For lengthy transactions,
ready to sync tokens are assigned at one or more predesignated intermediate points in the
transaction, and propagate throughout the system in a similar manner. The transaction
continues to execute as long as all ready to sync tokens properly return to the originating node.
The pause-before-commit and sync point schemes are used to avoid collisions at any of the
nodes.
