Patent EP-0781870-A2 (EP)
Inventor: OZAKI ATSUSHI
IPC: C30B15/00
Filed: 1996-12-20
Abstract: A crystal pulling apparatus is disclosed which employs the Czochralski method. The crystal pulling apparatus is operated while a heater for heating a material melt in a crucible is controlled by the main controller of a main system. When maintenance of a heating state is disabled for some reason, a relay of a signal changeover circuit is switched so as to maintain the heating state under control of the backup controller of a backup system, thereby maintaining the material melt in a molten state. Thus, even when it becomes impossible for the main system to heat the material melt within the crucible, the material melt can be prevented from becoming solidified.

Abstract: A method for encoding a contour of an object decides a
plurality of primary vertices on the contour based on a
polygonal approximation technique and also determines a
multiplicity of secondary vertices on the contour which are
disposed at one of a predetermined set of locations away from
a previously determined secondary vertex. Then, the method
encodes position information of the primary vertices to
provide encoded primary vertex data and codes position
information of the secondary vertices to provide coded
secondary vertex data. Finally, either the encoded primary
vertex data or the coded secondary vertex data is selected as
encoded contour data in response to a selection signal which
is generated by estimating an encoding error with a threshold
TH and the encoded contour data is provided to a transmitter
for the transmission thereof.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of computerized
transaction processing. 
More particularly, the invention relates to the computerized
processing of a collection of a multitude of potentially
distributed transactions ensuring the atomicity of the
collection of transactions. Besides of offering atomic
processing behavior the invention at the same time optimizes
the communication traffic for the coordination of said
transactions and the concurrency behavior and throughput of
said collection of transactions. 
The fundamental concept of the current invention for the
processing of a collection of potentially distributed
transactions encompassed by a global transaction is based on
the approach to split the collection of transactions into
groups of transactions. Each of the groups is called a
transactional stratum or stratum for short. Each stratum is
processed and synchronized via an atomic-commit-protocol, thus
guaranteeing an ACID processing outcome for each individual
stratum. The global transaction, hence structured as a
resulting collection of groups of transactions, i.e. as
collection of strata, is processed as a set of chained strata
according the principles of chained transaction processing.
The chained strata execution guarantees an atomic execution of
the global transaction.

Abstract: Tin oxide sensors are disclosed having a resistivity that at a measuring temperature increases with concentration of at least one gas to be measured, the sensors are made by calcining the tin oxide in air at a temperature in excess of 1400°C, or otherwise treating the tin oxide so that it has a state of physical aggregation consistent with being formed in such manner. At a second measuring temperature the resistivity of the sensor to said one gas decreases with increasing gas concentration. The resistivity of the sensor is dependent on the concentration of several gases, the dependence at differing measuring temperatures being such that by measuring the resistivity of the sensor at several different measuring temperatures the composition of a gas to which the sensor is exposed may be calculated. An array of such tin oxide gas sensors may be mounted on a single substrate having heater means to maintain the sensors at differing temperatures. Such an array may also include an antimony bearing sensor as disclosed or other tin oxide sensors.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for producing metal slabs in which especially a metal strip of steel is conducted through a bottom entry device of a vessel which is filled with molten metal, particularly steel, and, after the molten metal has crystallized onto the metal slab, the coated metal slab, particularly the coated metal strip, is pulled off above the vessel, wherein the crystallization carrier is conducted though the bottom entry device of the vessel which provides a clear opening width between the core strip and the entry device. Controlled cooling is carried out in the bottom area of the vessel containing the molten metal. The temperature of the molten metal at the nozzle exit of the bottom entry device is adjusted to be greater than the liquidus temperature of the molten metal. A meniscus in the pure melt phase is formed at the nozzle exit at the bottom entry device. A distance exists between the meniscus of the molten metal at the nozzle exit and the begin of the solidification. The heat removal in the area of the bottom entry device is controlled in dependence on the strip speed, bath temperature and gap width in such a way that the meniscus is formed freely and stationary at the nozzle exit.

Abstract: In a data synchronization circuit for obtaining a clock
synchronized with bits of received data to submit the received
data to retiming, it is achieved that a phase synchronization
without use of a feedback loop configuration giving rise to
oscillations is performed. The received data are devided
according to the frequency in a frequency dividing circuit.
This frequency divided output and the respective n-phase
clocks are compared in phase to generate a specific signal
to specify one of n-phase clocks having predetermined phase
relations to the frequency divided output. While, on the other
hand, the change points of the frequency divided output are
synchronized with the extracted clock of a clock selector
to average the specific signal with the timing of this change
point synchronization signal. One of n-phase clocks is
extracted in conformity with the state of this averaged output
to make an extracted clock and to subject the received data
to retiming in a flip-flop by using this clock.

Abstract: Method and apparatus for automatically closing gaps prior to painting a cel in a vector-based computer-aided drawing system. A drawing is processed, as it is entered by a user, to generate a stored planar map containing geometric and topological characteristics of the drawing. The planar map is searched to identify gaps and updated to store synthesized gap-closing vectors for those gaps smaller than a selectable size. The gaps are closed before the painting of the cel, or coloring of the drawing, so as to prevent unintended spill-over of the color into adjacent regions.
