Abstract: A linear array of infrared detector elements (20) with bottom electrode connections (22) extending away to one side can be formed in situ on a thick but flexible substrate (10), which may be of silicone rubber or other elastic material, by a simple process in accordance with the invention. A body (1) of ferroelectric and/or pyroelectric material is mounted on a conductive layer (2) on an insulating support (10 and 19) comprising the flexible substrate (10). A material-removal step is effected (for example by sawing or ion milling) to divide the body (1) into the detector elements (20) and the conductive layer (2) into the connections (22). Wire bonds (27) can be made on a rigid part (19) of the support, but low microphony characteristics can be achieved with the flexible substrate (10).

Abstract: The preparation of the solid gel electrolyte, which usually follows the pouring of the initially liquid sulphuric acid into the finished storage battery fitted with charged positive and negative electrodes, can be associated with the formation process by finally installing the still unformed plates (blanks), fitting the final current terminals (poles, pole bridges) and forming with a sulphuric acid which is dilute but which already contains the gel former in the form of finely dispersed silica. After the formation process has been carried out under conditions which are otherwise also conventional in the case of batteries containing liquid electrolyte, the storage battery is ready for use and contains an immobilised electrolyte.

Abstract: A method is disclosed for automating a selected delay within a data processing procedure. A desired deferral time is specified and associated with a particular document or process within a data processing system. Thereafter, the occurrence of the desired deferral time results in the automated processing of the associated document by the system. In one embodiment of the present invention a user may specify a particular date and time after which a response to a particular document is desired. The desired deferral time is then associated with the particular document in a distribution profile and utilized to either prompt a recipient to respond after the elapse of the specified time or to automatically defer the transmission of the recipient's response until the desired time. Similarly, a user may utilize this technique to chronologically order the fan out distribution of a document by transmitting a list of desired addressees and an associated desired deferral time for each such addressee to a transmission service. 
     Thereafter, as each desired deferral time elapses the document will automatically be transmitted by the transmission service to an associated addressee.

Abstract: A system for automatically determining the logical function of a circuit (100) using a logic simulator (202) wherein the input stimuli and truth table for a known or unknown circuit (100) are determined directly from the input (I) and output (O) node data of the circuit (100) without the user having to specify input transition values. The system of the invention automatically determines the truth table and input stimuli of the circuit by communicating with the logic simulator (202) through a communications interface and applying every possible combination of input edges to the logic simulator (202) to determine which input edges cause changes in the outputs. In particular, from a list of inputs and outputs of the circuit (100), the invention creates a complete set of binary vectors in input space and sends them to the logic simulator (202). It then examines the state of the output returned from the logic simulator (202) in order to determine which input-to-output paths exist. This approach allows all states of the inputs (I) to be exhaustively searched without the user having to manually specify the truth table of the circuit being tested by the logic simulator (202) or the input vectors which are necessary to excite the circuit. The resulting process is automatic and complete and is easier to use since human interaction is minimized.

Abstract: An apparatus performs servo control of a recording light beam by using a reproducing light beam. The reproducing light beam, which doesn't destroy the recording material of an optical card (2), is emitted from a reproducing LD (96) to the optical card (2). The position of the reproducing light beam is controlled by a control unit (152). A light beam which doesn't destroy the recording material of the optical card (2) is emitted from a recording LD (50) to the optical card (2). The position of the light beam from the recording LD (50) is detected by a recording PD (78) and the detected error signal is stored in the control unit (152). The reproducing light beam is emitted again from the reproducing LD (96) to the optical card (2) together with emitting the recording light beam, which can destroy the recording material of the optical card (2), from the recording LD (50). The position of the recording light beam is controlled by the control unit (152) based on the reflected light beam of the reproducing light beam from the optical card (2) and on the stored signal in the control unit (152).
