Abstract: A liner hose for use in the reconstruction of damaged buried conduits or pipelines, in particular sewers, comprises inner and outer layers (1, 2) of liquid-tight plastic film material and a number of substantially uniform intermediate layers (3-7) composed at least partially of a fibrous material impregnated with a curable resin. Each intermediate layer (3-7) is formed from a strip (13), which is substantially unstretchable in any direction and has a width such as to enable folding of the strip into a closed hose structure with unbonded seamless overlapping. The overlap sections (8-12) of all intermediate layers (3-7) are located with mutual separation in the same side of the liner in its folded condition. The liner hose is manufactured by arranging a number of said strips (13) into a sandwich configuration with the inner calibration hose (19) with the strips (13) overlapping each other with a mutual substantially uniform displacement, so that the total separation of longitudinal edges of lower and upper strips (13) is less than half the width of each strip (13), and folding the sandwich configuration in one operation around the inner hose (1).

Abstract: The invention relates to a method and a measuring arrangement for determining gloss of paper or paperboard. The paper or paperboard (11) surface is illuminated with collimated light substantially parallel with the normal of the paper or paperboard (11) surface.      An image is produced from the paper or paperboard (11) surface by means of reflected optical radiation. The reflected optical radiation is used for producing an image of the paper or paperboard surface onto the pixels of the camera's (22) detector surface, each of the pixels imaging an area in the order of micrometers of the paper or paperboard surface. An aperture (20, 30) provided in front of the camera (22) is used for adjusting the incidence angles of the reflected radiation, which affects the measurement of gloss. Gloss of paper or paperboard is measured on the basis of the intensity of the pixels on the camera's (22) detector surface.

Title: Supporting multiple fpga configuration modes using dedicated on-chip processor
Inventor: TRIMBERGER STEPHEN M
IPC: H01L27/04
Filed: 2001-01-05
Granted: 2008-03-04
Abstract: An FPGA has an on-chip processor that reads configuration data onto the FPGA and controls the loading of that configuration data into FPGA configuration memory cells. After FPGA  power-up, the processor reads a configuration mode code from predetermined terminals of the FPGA. If the configuration mode code has a first value, then the processor executes a first configuration program so that configuration data is received onto the FPGA  in accordance with a first configuration mode. If the configuration mode code has a second value, then the processor executes a second configuration program so that configuration data is received onto the FPGA in accordance with a second configuration mode. The configuration programs can be stored in metal-mask ROM on-chip so they can be changed without re-laying out the remainder of the FPGA.  Providing multiple configuration programs allows the FPGA to support multiple configuration modes using the same processor hardware. One configuration mode code causes the processor to execute a loader program that in turn loads a configuration program onto the FPGA from a source external to the FPGA. Once the configuration program is loaded, the processor executes the configuration program thereby allowing the FPGA  to support a custom configuration mode.
