Abstract: An effective address pre-calculation type pipelined microprocessor comprises a register file which can be used for a base address for an operand address and an effective address calculation unit for calculating and generating an effective address of an operand prior to execution of an instruction, by using an register included in the register file as a base address register. A copy register is provided for selecting and holding either the calculated effective address or a modification amount added result obtained by adding a constant number to the calculated effective address, and a copy valid flag is provided for storing a history of a written condition of the copy register. When an auto-modification designation mode is detected, a calculated effective address or the modification amount added result is written to the copy register. A copy register identification code latch stores an identification code of a register which is used as a base address register in the auto-modification designation mode. When the copy valid flag indicates that the copy register has been written and when a value of the copy register identification code latch is consistent with a base address register number, the value of the copy register is supplied to the effective address calculation unit.

Abstract: An apparatus for photo-optically detecting transducer motion using a photodetector resiliently suspended inside the transducer housing and photo-optically coupled to a light source. During movement the inertia effect of the photodetector along with the resilient suspension system causes the changes in the photo-optical coupling between the photodetector and the light source. The inertia effect of the photodetector is enhanced by adding a mass to the photodetector. Either the magnitude or the phase of the photodetector output is monitored to detect movement. In another embodiment, a light emitter is resiliently suspended so that movement induced changes in the position of the light emitter alter the coupling of light to one or more light detectors.

Abstract: A water soluble solder paste, which does not adversely impact the surface insulation resistance (SIR) of a circuit board, is comprised of powdered solder, a water soluble flux (containing an activator within a water soluble vehicle), a hydrophobic surfactant preferentially adsorbed over the water soluble vehicle, and a solvent within which the surfactant and flux are dissolved. The hydrophobic surfactant is chosen to be preferentially adsorbed by the circuit board surface over the water soluble flux vehicle to prevent the vehicle, which is hydrophilic from becoming trapped in the board surface, thereby adversely affecting the board SIR.

Abstract: A processor including an instruction register which holds a plurality of user instruction codes one by one, a state counter which outputs a number indicating the internal state of a system which changes along with the execution of instructions, and a decoder which receives as input the contents of the instruction register and the state counter and produces various types of control signals for the system. The processor has two further units added. One is a detection/storage unit which detects the occurrence of predetermined specific processing and when detecting the same stores the specific instruction code preselected from among the abovementioned user instruction codes in the instruction register. The other is a state changing unit which, when there is a detection, presets the internal state number shown by the state counter to a certain value by force and which converts the instruction corresponding to the specific instruction code to an instruction compatible with the above-mentioned specific processing.

Abstract: A debris monitor apparatus and method using the Faraday Effect to detect accumulation of debris on a magnetic probe is disclosed. The probe (10) contains a magnet (16) and is immersible in the fluid. As debris accumulates on the probe, the magnetic field changes. An optical sensor including magneto-optic material (22) is located within a portion of the changeable magnetic field, preferably near a node of the magnet. Optical fibers (28,30) are provided to bi-directionally address the magneto-optic material (22) with linearly polarized light. Rotation of the light polarization angle is converted into a modulation of the light's intensity. An electro-optic transducer converts the light intensity into electrical signals that indicate the quantity of debris accumulation on the probe, with a differentiated value of these signals with respect to time yielding rate of debris accumulation on the probe. Means are provided to calculate a ratio defined by the difference over sum of two bi-directionally transmitted pulses to provide a self-referenced output dependent only on the change in magnetic field caused by accumulation of debris on the probe. The changed magnetic field provides an inherent real-time memory of the accumulation of debris on the probe, which also permits multiplexed data collection.

Abstract: A low water contact lens material having high 0₂ permeability, a lower water content and reduced polymer matrix size provides adequate O₂ to the cornea, but does not wick water away from the eye nor allow protein or other tear components to penetrate and deposit in the lens. Such a lens is made by polymerizing and crosslinking a prepolymer which contains a cyclic polyol with polyalkylether segments containing curable segments. The cyclic polyols consist of alkoxylated glucose or sucrose which are then reacted with an isocyanate to produce an ultraviolet curable prepolymer. The prepolymer is then placed in a mold and polymerized by exposure to ultraviolet light. The free hydroxyl groups of the material react with a highly hydrophilic reagent to form covalent bonds thus making the surface of the material more wettable.

Abstract: External invocation of features on a switching system (10) from a network (18) is made possible by aliasing otherwise-unused network numbers that are assigned to the switching system within the network numbering plan to feature-access codes of the switching system's internal numbering plan, in the switching system's call processing arrangement (200) that uses stored definitions of syntax (320,350) and grammar (400,410) of the internal and network numbering plans. The aliasing is accomplished as follows. The syntax definitions of the internal numbering plan include definitions (312) of individual feature access codes, while the syntax definitions of the network numbering plan include definitions (312) of the aliased network numbers, which either are the same as the definitions of the corresponding feature access codes or direct the aliased network numbers to be translated into the corresponding feature access codes. In use, symbol strings received by the switching systems are parsed (210) to identify them as feature access codes or aliased network numbers, requisite translations are performed (230), and feature modules (205) that are pointed to (334) within the definitions are invoked (220).
