Abstract: In a video server hard disk storage unit, video layout ensures average case bandwidth and case seek time during bounded-time information transfers, to maximize access of users S. The storage unit includes D hard disks whose platters are divided into Z zones. Each movie is divided into i blocks and is striped across all D disks such that movie block i is stored on disk (i mod D). In one embodiment, movie block i is placed in zone (i/D) mod Z of disk (i mod D). User streams are organized into slots containing N=S/D streams and the number of streams in each slot accessing a zone is ≤ (N/Z). Seeking is to the nearest end of a set of accesses, where total seek time for a set of N accesses is ≤ N*seek (1.5/N). Preferably two storage buffers/stream are used. Admission policy permits stream assignment to any slot, but streams do not transfer until the needed data block is on the disk needed by the other streams in the slot, and until the block is in the proper disk zone. A second embodiment optimizes disk seeks by placing movie block i in zone (((i/D) + (i mod D)) mod Z) of disk (i mod D) to reduce buffer unit requirements. The S streams progress in order 0 to S-1 through disks 0 to D-1, all streams accessing each disk from the same zone before moving through the disk in another zone.

Abstract: The present invention comprises an arrangement with removable optical element having a predetermined focal distance in the light path between a light source and an objective lens, so as to insert said optical element into the light path between the light source and the objective lens for playing back or recording onto one type of thickness of disk plates, as well as to remove it therefrom for playing back or recording onto another type of thickness of disk plates. 
     Alternatively, by retaining variably the distance between the light source and the collimator lens, the distance between the light source and the collimator lens along with the light path is variably changed according to the thickness of the disk plate being inserted. Then by determining the type of the disk inserted and accordingly selectably inserting/removing the optical element, only one objective lens may be used to conform to the disk plates having different thicknesses.

Abstract: An improved method is described for the fusing, joining or seaming of cellulosic materials. The method utilizes a solution of selected organometallic compounds or metal oxides to rapidly crosslink opposing, overlapping cellulosic surfaces to provide secure seams. Enhanced seam strength is achieved by a subsequent moisture treatment. The tubular cellulosic casings are well-suited for the manufacture of sausages and sausage-like products. The seams according to this invention have exceptionally high shear strength and wet strength.

Abstract: A speech processing and analysis apparatus and method (18) for
generating a time-frequency distribution of a speech signal
which combines a set of spectrograms with varying window
lengths and orientations to provide a parameter-less time-frequency
distribution having good joint time and frequency
resolution at all angular orientations are disclosed. The
analysis window of a spectrogram is rotated relative to the
frequency components of the signal by preprocessing using a
Fractional Fourier Transform to form rotated window spectrograms.
In particular, to form the rotated window spectrogram,
the signal 24 is initially pre-processed (1) using a Fractional
Fourier Transform of angle α. The spectrogram time-frequency
distribution of the pre-processed signal is then computed (2)
using analysis window h(t) and then rotated (3) by angle -α.
The geometric mean of a set of rotated window spectrograms,
which are indexed by both the analysis window length and the
angular orientation of the window relative to the signal's
time-frequency features, may then be computed to form a combination
of rotated window spectrograms.

Abstract: An air bag device includes a second panel that is provided with means for modulating the unfurling action of an air bag after its peripheral seam comes out of a cover. For example, the second panel is formed with stitched portions or bonded portions, or tethers spanning the second panel are connected to the peripheral seam of the air bag. Further, only a single layer of a first panel of the air bag is disposed between the gas outlets of an igniter and the vehicle occupants. In operation, the peripheral seam of the air bag, when located within the cover, slides along the inner side wall of the cover against the friction therebetween, so that the first panel is slowly unfurled through an opening in the cover. After the peripheral seam of the air bag is ejected out of the cover, the above-indicated means provided for the second panel is adapted to modulate the unfurling action of the air bag in the lateral direction and toward the vehicle passenger, so that the air bag can be unfurled at a relatively low rate.
