Inventor: SCHWAIGER MEINHARD
IPC: B29C48/345
Filed: 2003-10-23
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing plastic profiles. According to said method, at least two extruded profiles ( 20.1, 20.2 ) are produced simultaneously, each of said extruded profiles ( 20.1, 20.2 ) is then quenched and calibrated in at least one calibration instrument ( 13.1, 13.2; 23.1, 23.2; 33.1, 33.2 ), the essentially cooled profiles being conveyed by a caterpillar take-off unit ( 4 ) and the profiles are finally processed into profile sections in a separation device ( 6.1, 6.2 ). To improve the performance and increase the flexibility of said method, the two extruded profiles ( 20.1, 20.2 ) are calibrated in a first operating mode in separate calibration instruments ( 13.1, 13.2; 23.1, 23.2; 33.1, 33.2 ), the take-off speeds for the two extruded profiles ( 20.1, 20.2 ) being preferably set independently of one another and in a second operating mode a single extruded profile ( 20 ) is produced. The invention also relates to devices for carrying out said method.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for removing blocking effect in a motion picture decoder.
Boundary pixel values of a current block and corresponding adjacent block are extracted.
A mean value for the resulting difference values between the extracted pixel values of the
current and adjacent blocks is calculated. The calculated mean value is limited between -
 1 / 2 and  1 / 2 quantization step size. The limited mean value is added to the each pixel
values of the current block to generate a resulting output. In another aspect, absolute
values for the resulting difference values between extracted pixel values of the current and
adjacent block is calculated. The calculated absolute values are compared with the
respective difference values and threshold level to determine whether the current block
contains an edge. The current block without the edge is selected, filtered, and outputted, in
which the blocking effect due to a quantization error is removed without having distortion
to the original data.

Abstract: The present invention provides a time-series data
display method for displaying time-series data items so
that a user can grasp time more intuitively and
sensuously, and an information processing system for
realizing the display method, wherein first data
associated with a desired date is retrieved and
displayed, second data associated with a date contiguous
to the desired date is retrieved, a display screen for
the second data is displayed with a smaller size than a
display screen for the first data in a temporal
direction starting with the desired date, third data
associated with a date contiguous to the date of the
second data is retrieved, and the third data is
displayed inside the second data with a display area
thereof made smaller. The present invention also
provides a hierarchical data display method and browser
system, wherein a display area is divided into an area,
in which data icons representing data items belonging to
one level are displayed, and an area in which child
levels are displayed. As a hierarchical depth
increases, the data icons are made smaller in size and
simpler. The hierarchical structure of a file system or
data base having a hierarchical structure can be
displayed in the form of a Venn diagram, thus making it
possible to grasp the whole structure intuitively. Data 
items belonging to child levels are not hidden but
displayed in the form of reduced images, whereby
intended data can be located effortlessly. A cutout
form and image are registered mutually independently.
An identifier, position, and size of the cutout form are
specified as the attributes of the image. Thus, an image
can be fetched into album software by performing a
simple operation, or a cutout can be changed in size.
