Abstract: A fuel metering control system for an internal combustion engine having a plurality of cylinders. The system includes an air/fuel ratio sensor and engine operating condition detecting means for detecting engine operating conditions at least including engine speed and engine load. The basic quantity of fuel injection is determined by retrieving mapped data according to the engine speed and engine load. An adaptive controller is provided to calculate a first feedback correction coefficient to correct the quantity of basic fuel injection such that the detected air/fuel ratio is brought to a desired air/fuel ratio, and second and third feedback loops are provided for calculating feedback correction coefficients to correct the quantity of fuel injection. The output quantity of fuel injection is determined on the basis of the basic quantity of fuel injection and the feedback correction coefficients.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method and apparatus for actively managing the overall power consumption of a computer network which includes a plurality of computer systems inter-connected to each other. In turn, each computer system has one or more modules. Each computer system of the computer network is capable of independently initiating a transition into a power-conserving mode, i.e., a "sleep" state, while keeping its network interface "alive" and fully operational. Subsequently, each computer system can independently transition back into a fully operational state, i.e., an "awake" state, when triggered by either a deterministic or an asynchronous event. As a result, the sleep states of the computer systems are transparent to the computer network. Deterministic events are events triggered internally by a computer system, e.g., an internal timer waking the computer system up at midnight to perform housekeeping chores such as daily tape backups. Conversely, the source of asynchronous events are external in nature and include input/output (I/O) activity. The illusion of the entire network being always fully operational is possible because the system controllers, the interconnects and network interfaces of each computer system remain fully operational while the selected modules and peripheral devices are powered down. As a result, each computer system is able to rapidly wake up from the sleep state in response to stimuli by powering down selected modules thereby accomplishing power conservation without requiring a static shutdown of the computer network, i.e., without affecting the overall performance and response of the computer network.

Abstract: A recording medium which realizes high sound quality and is playable on a conventional playback device has a recording layer provided with a double-layered structure having at least a first layer L1 and a second layer L2, an audio data program is recorded on the first layer in the first data format, which is the conventional format, and the audio data program is recorded on the second layer in a second, new data format. The audio data programs recorded on the first layer and on the second layer are the same program and can be produced using 1-bit ΔΣ modulation having a high sampling rate as the new format, the ΔΣ modulated signal being passed through successive decimation filters to form the lower sampling rate signal of the conventional format. The double-layered disk can be played back using a disk judging unit that detects the disk's table of contents and controls a laser beam focus of a pick up, an operating clock frequency, and the decoder for reading out the data recorded in pits formed on the disk.

Abstract: An imaging apparatus in that a solid state imaging device
chip and a relevant peripheral circuit element chips are
mounted in the form of a bare chip within the same planar
package. Thus, the imaging apparatus is made compact,

decreased with the effect of improving electrical
characteristics. Further, the use of a flat
electroconductive substrate with an insulating film formed on
its surface as the substrate mounted with the solid state
imaging device chip and the relevant peripheral circuit
element chips makes it possible to mount high-density element
chips because improvement in wiring density and thermal
radiation is achievable.

Abstract: In a digital VTR that carries out magnetic recording and reproduction by bit rate reduction coding a digital video signal, a fixed length block is formed by controlling the code amount of a large block including a plurality of small blocks located distant from each other on a screen at the time of recording. The fixed length block is divided into a plurality of recording blocks so that the main components of respective small blocks are included separately on the recording blocks, whereby error correction is applied to form a plurality of error correction blocks. The error correction blocks are rearranged so that recording blocks including the main components of small blocks adjacent on a screen are also adjacent on a recording medium. Thus, the possibility of deviation in the information amount of each large block is suppressed to improve efficiency of bit rate reduction coding, and to obtain a high speed reproduced picture of high quality.
