Abstract: There is disclosed a display content control method, a display content control device (108), and a display system (100) including such a display content control device, for determining connections to a main content source (102, 104, 120, 122, 114-1,..., 114-in) and at least one associated content source (102, 104, 120, 122, 114-1,..., 114-in) for each of a number of different users. A user defined association between main content source (102, 104, 120, 122, 114-1,..., 114-in) and one or more associated content sources (102, 104, 120, 122, 114-1,..., 114-in) is stored for each user. When a particular user accesses the main content source (102, 104, 120, 122, 114-1,..., 114-in), the particular user is identified and receives automatically content from the main content source (102, 104, 120, 122, 114-1,..., 114-in) and content from the associated content source or sources (102, 104, 120, 122, 114-1,..., 114-in) for that particular user in accordance with the stored user-defined association. Content from the one or more associated content sources (102, 104, 120, 122, 114-1,..., 114-in) is overlaid on the main content on a display device (110) via a user interface.  A machine-readable storage media is also provided which includes instructions executable by a processing system to carry out the display content control method aforesaid.

Abstract: In one aspect, the invention divides an audio signal into auditory events, each of which tends to be perceived as separate and distinct, by calculating the spectral content of successive time blocks of the audio signal, calculating the difference in spectral content between successive time blocks of the audio signal, and identifying an auditory event boundary as the boundary between successive time blocks when the difference in the spectral content between such successive time blocks exceeds a threshold. In another aspect, the invention generates a reduced-information representation of an audio signal by dividing an audio signal into auditory events, each of which tends to be perceived as separate and distinct, and formatting and storing information relating to the auditory events. Optionally, the invention may also assign a characteristic to one or more of the auditory events. Auditory events may be determined according to the first aspect of the invention or by another method.

Abstract: In order to provide the possibility of interchange of roles of leading and led exchange pulse train generators, an exchange pulse train (T'') of the led generator is synchronized in phase with that (T') of a leading generator. Each generator derives its exchange pulse train (T', T'') from a respective intermediate pulse train (H', H'') by means of a frequency reduction arrangement (BKP, U). Comparison in the led generator (UGN, BKN, UGV, BKV, BKVv) of the exchange pulse trains detects a relative phase lead or lag greater than a given threshold value of the same order as the intermediate pulse train period and, in order to maintain in-phase synchronism, shortens or lengthens (BKR), as appropriate, a half period signal portion of the exchange pulse train by an intermediate pulse train period. The intermediate pulse generator is servo-synchronized by means of a master pulse train derived in a frequency adjuster from a received standard pulse train.

The electric source circuit (15) is adapted to have so low impedance as to supply current to the electric lock (61) only during on- or off-operation of the lock, but then it has usually so high impedance as to supply the check current with alternately converting polarities to the electric lock (61). In the wire circuit there are provided a door switch (10) responsive to the operation of the door and current checking means, which means detects the circuit current for exercising a supervision over the states of opening or closing the door and turning on or off the lock.

An input speech signal is passed through three circuit arms, comprising filter circuits, zero crossing counter circuits and RMS measuring circuits (3-13), for producing signals representing amplitude and frequency of the fundamental voicing component and the first three formants of the speech signal. Computer (14) is programmed with a patient's psychophysical data, and determines the manner of stimulation of the electrodes by ranking the sharpness of the electrodes and assigning sub-bands of the second formant frequency range to particular electrodes. Also, the voiced or unvoiced nature of the signal is determined by comparing the fundamental and second formant components. The output signal passed through a data formatter (15) and transmitter (16) has both formant and prosodic information whereby the production of confusing percepts is avoided.

Abstract: A tracking control arrangement for a video tape recorder effects simultaneous recording and then simultaneous reproduction of four channel recording tracks (TRa, TRb, TRc, TRd) formed on a magnetic tape (2) under tracking control effected by detecting tracking error in dependence on the phase difference between reproduced signals from two adjacent recording tracks (TRc, TRd) of the four at the time of reproduction, the adjacent two recording tracks (TRc, TRd) being recorded with different azimuth angles. A signal delayed by a delay circuit (100) with respect to the signal recorded in one (TRd) of the two adjacent recording tracks is recorded in the other one (TRc) of the two adjacent recording tracks, thereby permitting tracking control by bimorph plate (3A, 3B) or capstan servo control (106) in dependence on the phase difference between the reproduced signals produced from two magnetic heads (1C, 1D) corresponding to the two adjacent recording tracks (TRc, TRd).

Abstract: This procedure means that molybdenum core wire in tungsten filament coils for light sources can be dissolved chemically without releasing nitrous gases to the atmosphere. Since the solution reaction takes place under vacuum and with a metered supply of oxygen, while retaining the vacuum, the nitrous gases which have been formed can be converted in the process. The process acid also contains sulphuric acid and water. The reaction vessel can be cooled by means of tempering in the introductory stage of the dissolution reaction, since this stage is markedly exothermic. The reaction vessel can be heated in the final stage so that the dissolution of core wire becomes complete. 
<??>The device for implementing the procedure consists of a reaction vessel (1) with a tempering jacket (2) and fitted with an inlet and outlet (6) for process acid. An oxygen pipe (7) containing a metering valve (8) runs to the vessel (1). This valve is controlled by pressure-sensing devices (12, 13) on a liquid trap (10) fitted on a pipeline (9) running from the reaction vessel. The liquid trap can suitably contain an alkali solution. The pipeline (9) can be fitted with a cooler (11) for condensate acid vapour from the reaction vessel (1).

Abstract: A nib (7) for a bolt head or nut forming tool, which includes a plurality of small nib pieces (1) as a combination segment nib (2) and with a regular polygonal hole (6) formed therein. The outer periphery of the nib (2) is also formed in a regular polygon and it is inserted into a bush (3) of the same shape for reinforcing the nib (7). A stress absorbing hole (9) is provided at each corner of the inner periphery of the bush (3) or on the outer periphery of the nib (2). Since these holes (9) serve to absorb the concentrated stress applied to the nib pieces (1), the nib (7) so constructed is more difficult to damage than the conventional one. Inasmuch as a machine is thus less frequently stopped to replace the nib (7), it can remarkably enhance the production efficiency.
