Abstract: A macrocellular cellular telephone system has cells (macrocells) CI and CII. All the cells CI broadcast a particular Location Area Identity (LAI), and all the cells CII broadcast a different LAI. Upon receipt of an LAI, a macrocellular mobile station (MS) responds and the network thus knows its whereabouts. Communication is thus established with that MS by broadcasting from all cells within the appropriate area I or II. The network is also capable of offering a more restricted service to subscribers to a microcellular system - for example, service in large cities or towns identified at A,B and C. Microcells in these areas transmit LAI's which differ from the LAI's transmitted by the cells available for macrocellular subscribers. By means (for example) of its lower power level, a microcellular subscriber MS can be distinguished from a macrocellular MS and can be denied service unless it is within an area A,B or C.

Abstract: In a single pass, tri-level imaging apparatus (2), erroneous voltage readings of an Electrostatic Voltmeter (ESV) which has become contaminated by charged particles (i.e. toner) are negated by using two ESVs (ESV₁,ESV₂). 
     During each cycle up following a normal cycle down, a pair of Electrostatic Voltmeters (ESVs) are utilized to measure the voltage level on a portion of relatively uncharged portion of a photoreceptor (P/R). Using one of the ESVs, which is less prone to contamination, as a reference, the zero offset of the other is adjusted to achieve the same residual P/R voltage reading. The difference in the readings which is due to toner contamination is the zero offset between the two ESVs. The offset is used to adjust all subsequent voltage readings of the ESV until a new offset is measured.

Abstract: A neural network (400) is trained with a general set of data to function as a general model of a machine (10) or process with local condition inputs set equal to zero. The network (400) is then retrained or receives additional training on an extentd data set containing the general set of data, characterized by zero values for the local condition inputs, and data on specific local conditions, characterized by non-zero values for the local condition inputs. The result is a trained neural network (400) which functions as a general model when the inputs for the local conditions inputs are set equal to zero, and which functions as a model of some specific local condition when the local condition inputs match the encoding of the some local data set contained within the training data. The neural network (400) has an architecture and a number of neurons (dmg17-dmg26; sep17-sep26;loss17-loss26;dock17-dock26;thr17-thr26) such that its functioning as the local model is partially dependent upon its functioning as the general model. This trained neural network (400) is combined with sensors, actuators (90, 92, 94, 104, 106, 108), a control and communications computer and with a user interface to function as combine control system.

Abstract: Cluster architectures are improved by introducing a  Generalized Shared Memory , which is maintained in a consistent state by a hardware-based coherency mechanism that operates on shared objects, wherever they happen to be located. Each cluster node comprises one or more processors, a local main memory storing both private and shared objects and an external coherency unit connected to inter-node communication means. 
     The external coherency unit comprises monitoring means adapted to monitor (snoop) both local and inter-node communications and coherency means adapted to act upon cache-line requests to shared objects in response to the coherence state of the cache-line. This increases both the performance and the versatility of the architectures by permitting the composition of private vs. shared memory to be of arbitrary size and dynamically variable on different computer nodes in the cluster.

Abstract: Methods of fabricating powders of electrically conductive particles supersaturated with grain growth control additives are described. A molten admixture of an electrically conductive material and a grain growth control additive is atomized by spraying an innert atmosphere forming fine molten particles which rapidly cool to form solid particles which are supersaturated with the grain growth control additive. The supersaturated particles are heated to form an electrical conductor having grain sizes less than about 25 microns. The supersaturated particles can be combined with a binder to form an electrical conductor forming paste. Patterns of the paste can be embedded in a green ceramic which can be sintered to form a semiconductor chip packaging substrate having electrical conductors with controlled grain size. During sintering of the combination of ceramic precursor and conductor forming paste, the grain growth control additive results in a substantially void free and crack free via filled with metal having a fine grain morphology.

Abstract: Spray (or satellite drops) in thermal ink-jet pens firing inks containing polymer dispersants for pigments is reduced by increasing the distance between the firing resistor ( 10 ) and the nozzle ( 12 ). This may be done by offsetting the resistor with respect to the nozzle, increasing the thickness of the orifice plate ( 14 ), increasing the thickness of the barrier layer ( 18 ) which defines the firing chamber ( 20 ) and supports the nozzle plate, or recessing the resistor deeper into the substrate ( 16 ) on which it is supported. Any or all of the foregoing may be implemented to reduce spray. A combination of thicker top plates and offsetting the nozzle relative to the resistor is particularly efficacious in reducing spray.
