Patent EP-0467652-A2 (EP)
Inventor: GILLI NORMA LOUISE
IPC: A61N1/39
Filed: 1991-07-16
Abstract: An apparatus and method for tachyarrhythmia reversion provides a pacing pulse to the atrium at a predetermined time prior to the delivery of a cardioversion shock to the ventricle. The pacing pulse depolarizes the atrium producing an atrial refractory period. The cardioversion shock therapy is delivered during this refractory period in order to avoid the vulnerable zone of the atrium. This minimizes post-shock arrhythmias attributable to shock delivery during the atrial vulnerable zone. When used with bradycardia support pacing, a post-shock therapy pacing delay or pause is introduced, following reversion of the tachyarrhythmia, before delivering the bradycardia support pacing. The magnitude of the delay period is substantially greater than the normal bradycardia support pacing standby interval.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to systems and methods for recovering from unplanned failures in object oriented computing environments. The systems and methods of the present invention recover from unplanned failures in an efficient manner by storing recovery information in recovery objects. During recovery operations from an unplanned failure, object instance methods (which were abnormally terminated by the unplanned failure) use the recovery information to identify committable actions which were executed prior to the unplanned failure. The object instance methods then execute committable actions which were not executed prior to the unplanned failure. Thus, according to the present invention, the committable actions which were executed prior to the unplanned failure are not re-executed, and the committable actions which were not executed prior to the planned failure are executed.

Abstract: The invention is a capacitively coupled probe (1500) which can be used for non-contact acquisition of both analog and digital signals. The probe (1500) includes a shielded probe tip (1508), a probe body (1502) which is mechanically coupled to the probe tip (1508), and an amplifier circuit (1504) disposed within the probe body (1502). The amplifier circuit (1504) receives a capacitively sensed signal from the probe tip (1508) and produces an amplified signal in response thereto. The amplifier (1504) has a large bandwidth to accommodate high-frequency digital signals. Further, the amplifier (1504) has a very low input capacitance and a high input resistance to reduce signal attenuation and loading of the circuit being probed. The amplifier circuit (1504) is disposed in the probe body (1502) closely adjacent to the probe tip (1508) in order to reduce stray and distributed capacitances. A reconstruction circuit reconstructs digital signals from the amplified capacitively sensed signal.

Abstract: The invention relates to an apparatus (1) for hiring trolleys. The apparatus (1) consists of a number of trolleys (2, 2') which are equipped with coupling parts (9) for coupling them together, and of a collection point (4). Each coupling part (9) has an insertion part (14) and a locking well (11). The trolleys (2, 2') can be uncoupled from the collection point (4) against payment of a coin deposit and can be coupled to this again after use, the coin deposit being refunded. To prevent the stacked row (22) of returned trolleys (2, 2') from increasing beyond a predetermined length, the invention proposes arranging at the end of the collection point (4) a magnet (7) which, when a trolley (2, 2') moves past, influences a blocking member located in the coupling part (9) of this trolley (2, 2'), in such a way that, as long as the coupling part (9) is in the effective range (8) of the magnet (7), this blocking member projects into the locking well (11) of the coupling part (9), so that the insertion part (14) of a trolley (2) located in front cannot be introduced into the coupling part (9) of a trolley (2') which is to be pushed in. This measure ensures an automatic limitation of the length of a stacked row (22). <IMAGE>

Abstract: A method for generating a test sequence for a fault in a sequential circuit to provide a high fault coverage. In one embodiment, a circuit state, which a system fails to justify, is stored as an illegal state in a step 107. In a step 103, a target fault is selected. In a step 104, the system performs its fault propagation processing to generate a test sequence and propagate the target fault from a fault location to any external output pin in such a manner that the circuit state does not coincide with the illegal state set stored in the step 107, and judges the success or failure of the sequence generation. In a step 105, the system performs its state initialization processing to generate a test sequence to transfer the state of the circuit from its initial state to a state when the fault was sensitized in such a manner that the circuit state does not coincide with the illegal state set stored in the step 107, and judges the success or failure of the sequence generation. Since the circuit state when the system fails to justify the state is stored as the illegal state so that a circuit state at the time of generating a subsequent test sequence is prevented from coinciding with the illegal state set, the possibility of the successful test sequence generation can be increased and thus the test sequence generation system can achieve a high fault coverage.

Abstract: A method of determining an amount of exposure in a process of reproducing a face density, which is extracted from an original image of a photographed human subject, at a target density. When there are a plurality of people among photographed subjects and face densities differ greatly, the face densities are divided into two groups of higher and lower face densities. Thereafter, the face density of a group which is determined to be a standard density is finished as an appropriate density. Further, in a process of effecting reproduction at the target density, density correction of a face is not effected in a case in which a face density of a photographed subject is extremely high.

Abstract: A modular architecture for fast-packet networks that comprises line interface devices (LIDS) exchangeable to support numerous line interfaces. The LIDs supply frame relay packet management devices (FRYPAMs) with unified framed data in HDLC format and clock signals. The receiving FRYPAMs perform CRC checking, check look-up tables to convert the DLCI fields if needed, write the received frames with correct FCS fields into a frame buffer RAM and communicate with other FRYPAMs to update transmission queues. The transmitting FRYPAMs read the frames from the frame buffer RAM and send them to the transmitting LIDs coupled to destination end points. The transmitting LIDs convert the HDLC data from the FRYPAMs to the format appropriate for the specific line interface and transmit the information to the destination end points. A frame buffer manager allocates available frame buffers in the frame buffer RAM among the FRYPAMs. A control and maintenance processor handles control and maintenance operations for the fast-packet network. It updates the look-up tables and communicates DLCI and line interface parameters to the LIDs in real time.
