Abstract: The actual flow rate of gas to the solid-sample container or to the gas reservoir can be precisely obtained according to variances in the pressure of the gas reservoir without directly adjusting the flow rate precisely. The volume of gas not adsorbed in the sample container can be obtained from the pressure in the sample container. The adsorption can easily be determined from the difference between the flow rate of gas and the volume of gas not adsorbed in the sample container. Even if the flow rate fluctuates, the adsorption can precisely be obtained. The desorption can easily be obtained in the same way. Gas is exhausted from the gas reservoir in advance. When desorbed gas in the sample container is continuously exhausted to the gas reservoir, the pressure in the gas reservoir is measured. Since the adsorption and desorption are thus precisely obtained, the adsorption or desorption isotherm can be drawn by plotting the pressure at each point of time and the corresponding adsorption or desorption of the solid sample. Consequently, the surface area, pore diameter distribution, pore volume and the like of the solid sample can precisely be calculated.

Abstract: There is disclosed a deformable mirror device (DMD) exposure unit (10) and method of operation for use in xerographic printing system. The exposure unit (10) is constructed with an integral unmodulated light source (16) condensing light onto a substrate containing, in one embodiment, a multi-row set (60) of deflectable mirrors. The deflection of each mirror is controlled by electronic circuitry established on the same monolithic integrated substrate. The substrate is arranged with mirror elements which can be adjusted easily during assembly to eliminate time consuming construction or maintenance routines. An optic structure (19) using integral light baffles and deflection edges, assures the proper contrast and light energy level at the image. In the case of multiple rows of pixels, the on-chip circuitry acts to reregister the spatially separated images through a suitable time delay. The formation of printed images of suitable uniformity and quality is achieved by the incorporation of an overlap factor relative to the multiple rows of pixels as defined on the integrated substrate.

Abstract: A method of synchronizing the parallel processors of a multiple instruction stream multiprocessor employs a limited number of register channels, which may be re-used, for enforcing cross-stream data or event dependencies by passing data or event notifications in a synchronizing fahsion. Cross-stream dependencies which by virtue of identified "synchronization redundancy" do not require enforcement by register channels are passed by writing to and reading from ordinary shared memory. A compiling method schedules the instructions into parallel instruction streams by reference to a directed acyclic graph (DAG), in a manner to minimize the production of cross-tream dependencies. The scheduling is determined last first and tends to assign whole sub-graphs of the DAG to different processors.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a diaphgram for an electro-acoustical transducer, of the movable-­coil electrodynamic type, for transforming electrical signals into acoustical signals and diffusing the electrical signals, characterized in that the diaph­gram comprises a single-piece blade member, made of a metal material of very low density and very good heat conductivity and mechanical characteristics. 
     The metal blade is resiliently suspended on the perimeter thereof, is metally coupled to the unit of which it forms a portion, and supports the acoustical current wire fixed at the center of mass thereof to the active metal surface. 
     The acoustical current conductor wire communi­cates to the blade the heat which is produced by the acoustical current, which is added to that generated in the blade mainly because of the deformation of the resilient suspension. 
     This generated heat is quickly absorbed by the metal blade and efficiently dissipated by irradia­ting it into the encompassing air and by conduction through the adjacent masses, thereby holding the tempe­rature under a danger level.

Abstract: A method for executing a graphics pixel packing instruction in a data processing system (20). An instruction sequencer (22) transfers graphics instruction to a graphics execution unit (29). In response to receiving a pixel packing instruction, the graphics execution unit (29) transfers a selected number of data operands from the communications bus (36). One of the selected data operands comprises a plurality of bits representative of one or more fixed point values, each fixed point value represents the intensity of one of the color channels within a pixel. The graphics execution unit (29) truncates each of the fixed point values to a predetermined number of bits to generate a corresponding number of truncated bit fields, and packs the truncated bits fields into a predetermined position in a second data operand. The second data operand accumulates the truncated color channel values into pixel format, to provide an intermediate value, which is rotated to provide a result data operand.

Abstract: The invention relates to an apparatus for dosing viscous dusts, in particular fibrous wood-grinding dusts for dust furnaces with an intermediate storage container for receiving the dust charged, with an adjustable conveying device at the lower end of the intermediate storage container for the dosed removal of the dust from the intermediate storage container into a dust extraction line which is acted upon by compressed air and leads to the burner, and with a compensating line between the chute of the conveying device and the head end of the intermediate storage container for removal of leak air which has escaped from the dust extraction line into the device. The invention envisages that the conveying device is mounted with a hopperless intermediate storage container on a gravimetric measuring device for the dust removed, that the outlet of the conveying device opens into a chute forming a part of the compensating line and the dust removed passes from there via a second conveying device, which serves for explosionproof disconnection, into the dust conveying line, and that the cross-sectional area of the compensating line is dimensioned in such a manner that the rate of fall of the dust carried along with the leak air is greater than the flow rate of the leak air in the compensating line. The invention makes it possible to produce a dosing apparatus for viscous dusts for unsupervised continuous operation with an internal continuously operating leak air/dust separation and recycling. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A reciprocating vacuum shuttle plate co-operates with a knife gate (112) and high-friction rollers (118,120) positioned between the knife gate (112) and an additional conveyor formed by a driven feed roller (94) and an idler feed roller (96). The high-friction rollers (118,120) form a singulator gap (188) with shoulders (184) of a vacuum-groove (186) on a sheet-engaging surface of the reciprocating shuttle plate. The knife gate (112) holds back other sheets in the stack and the singulator separates any double sheets which pass the knife gate (112). 
     A transition tray downstream of the additional conveyor provides a transition to clamps of an endless chain. The transition tray comprises an endless conveyor belt with a floating feed roller biased thereagainst. The position of the floating feed roller can be adjusted so as to space it approximately a sheet length from a stationary clamp on the endless chain. 
     The shuttle plate comprises upper panels one of which is a vacuum-groove panel which can be interchanged with one another on a shuttle plate frame so that the position of the vacuum-groove panel can be changed. A thumb mechanism provides resistance to falling sheets so that a forward-most sheet has reduced pressure on it.

Abstract: An in-place hierarchical technique shifts a spatial processing focus within a two-dimensional array in a SIMD parallel framework. The hierarchical process uniquely associates a rectangular region with each image location at each level of the hierarchy. Each of these regions at a given level is the union of two child regions at the next lower level, one of which is associated with the same image location. In an upward pass, an occupancy bit is stored at each location at each level of the hierarchy, indicating whether the respective region at that level includes any pixels that meet a specified criterion for selecting the new processing focus. In a downward pass, the focus is shifted at each step to a pixel associated with one of the child regions of the region associated with the focus, the child region's occupancy bit being on. This involves a random or arbitrary choice between the two children when both of their occupancy bits are on. The scheme is uniform, local, and parallel; it is particularly efficient because the array contents are never accessed by the central processor.
