by employing input means 102 for sequentially reading an input
bit stream, a decoder unit 103 for decoding inputted data, a data
buffer 104 for saving either non-compression image data or image
data being decoded in a half way, an added information buffer 105
for saving either added information related to image data or added
information related to a coding system, an encoder unit 106 for
encoding the image data read out from the data buffer 104 with
reference to the added information read out from the added
information buffer 105, and output means 107 for outputting the
image data encoded by the encoder unit 106. Accordingly, it is
provided an image coding system converting apparatus, and an image
coding system converting method, capable of converting an image
coded by one image coding system into another image coding system
in a high speed, while suppressing a deterioration of an image
quality, and also to provide a recording medium for recording
thereon a computer readable program capable of executing the image
coding system converting method.

Abstract: A method for promoting fairness in a communication center
in response to requests for destination numbers (DNs) from
network-level routers has steps of determining latency for
requests from individual ones of the network-level routers,
receiving a request from a first router for which latency
is determined, assigning a fairness wait time to the
request, the time determined as an inverse function of
latency, and answering the request according to rules in
effect only after the wait time has expired. In some cases
requests arrive with priority, and priority is used a swell
as latency in determining wait time. In other cases a
second fairness time is imposed, after which a fairness
algorithm is called to award a DN according to statistical
history and cal priority. The system is useful for
communication centers for connection-oriented telephone
systems, Internet protocol systems, and for all sorts of
digital messaging and mail systems.

Title: Microphone array processing system for noisly multipath environments
Inventor: LAMBERT RUSSELL H
IPC: B60R16/02
Filed: 2000-08-24
Abstract: Apparatus and a corresponding method for processing speech signals
in a noisy reverberant environment, such as an automobile. An array of microphones
(10) receives speech signals from a relatively fixed source (12) and noise signals
from multiple sources (32) reverberated over multiple paths. One of the microphones
is designated a reference microphone and the processing system includes adaptive
frequency impulse response (FIR) filters (24) enabled by speech detection circuitry
(21) and coupled to the other microphones to align their output signals with the
reference microphone output signal. The filtered signals are then combined in a
summation circuit (18). Signal components derived from the speech signal combine
coherently in the summation circuit, while noise signal components combine
incoherently, resulting in composite output signal with an improved signal-to-noise
ratio. The composite output signal is further processed in a speech conditioning
circuit (20) to reduce the effects of reverberation.

Title: Thermal out-of-plane buckle-beam actuator
Inventor: SINCLAIR MICHAEL J
IPC: B81B7/02
Filed: 2001-10-15
Abstract: An out-of-plane thermal buckle-beam microelectrical
mechanical actuator is formed on a planar substrate of semiconductor
material (e.g., silicon). The actuator includes first and second anchors
secured to the substrate and multiple elongated thermal buckle beams that
are secured between the anchors. The buckle beams are formed of
semiconductor material, such as polysilicon. In one implementation, the
buckling beams are coupled together by a pivot frame that includes a
frame base secured to each buckle beam and at least one pivot arm that is
coupled to the frame base at one end and includes a free end that pivots
out-of-plane when the actuator is activated. A current source directs
electrical current through the thermal buckle beams via the anchors to
impart thermal expansion of the buckle beams and hence a buckling
motion of them out of the plane (i.e., away from) the substrate. Some
implementations may include an out-of-plane buckle bias that predisposes
the buckle beams to move away from the substrate when activated.

Abstract: A control apparatus for an electric vehicle which
improves the operability of an electric wheelchair on slopes

which, when it determines that a rotational direction
corresponding to a direction of an operation force is
opposite to a rotational direction in which a driving wheel
is actually rotated, sets an operation mode of the motor for
driving the wheel to an electrical braking mode. Thus, the
electric wheelchair is decelerated and the load on the
operator is reduced. The control unit may control the motor
such that the motor does not generate an electrical braking
force until the driving wheel is rotated by a predetermined
amount. In such a case, even when the driving wheel
temporarily rotates in the reverse direction while it climbs
up an upward slope, an unnecessary electrical braking force
is not generated.
