Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a method and an apparatus for producing a large sized filmed substrate such as a reflection preventive filter using a relatively small production facility. In a method for producing a filmed substrate according to the present invention, the thickness of a monitor film formed on a film forming monitor is measured by using the film forming monitor disposed outside of a film forming area or a movable film forming monitor and a film forming process is controlled based on a film thickness so measured to thereby form a film even on a film forming objective substrate having a size equal to the entirety of the film forming area. In addition, the method of the present invention can improve the degree of freedom in which the film forming objective substrate is disposed within the film forming area, whereby the productivity during the production process can also be improved. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A sports implement including an electroactive element, such as a piezoceramic sheet attached to the implement and a circuit attached to the electroactive element. The circuit may be a shunt, or may include processing such as amplification and phase control to apply a driving signal which may compensate for strain sensed in the implement, or may simply alter the stiffness to affect performance. In a ski, the electroactive element is located near to the root in a region of high strain to apply damping, and the element captures between about one and five percent of the strain energy of the ski. The region of high strain may be found by modeling mechanics of the sports implement, or may be located by empirically mapping the strain distribution which occurs during use of the implement. In other embodiments, the electroactive elements may remove resonances, adapt performance to different situations, or enhance handling or comfort of the implement. Other embodiments include striking implements intended to hit a ball or object in play, such as golf clubs and tennis racquets, wherein the strain elements may alter the performance, feel or comfort of the implement.

Abstract: The problems caused by chemical and thermal shrinkage of hard roll covers, are reduced by the inclusion of one or more intermediate compressive layers between the metal roll and the outer cover, or "topstock". A compressive layer has the properties of being rigid enough to allow the cover to be applied to the roll, and compressible enough to buffer and absorb the stresses which occur as the cover is shrinking during processing. In one embodiment, the intermediate compressive layer comprises a three dimensional fabric that is filled preferably with a thermoset resin system which cures at lower temperature than cover. In a second embodiment, the precise amount of shrinkage in the roll can be predetermined to a high enough degree of accuracy so that a depth for the fabric layer can be used to compensate for the amount of shrinkage, thereby eliminating the need for filling. In a third embodiment, the compressive layer is comprised of a wax material. The problems caused by chemical and thermal shrinkage are further reduced through a method based on applying a polymeric cover layer over one or more intermediate compressive layers, curing at an elevated temperature, and, allowing the cover to shrink during curing or hardening.

Abstract: A row decoder circuit operates in a memory integrated circuit, such as a dynamic random access memory (DRAM), having an array of memory cells including row and columns. An address decode tree circuit receives address signals and provides decode signals being activated based on the state of the address signals. Row line driver circuits receive corresponding ones of the decode signals and an enable signal. Each row line driver circuit fires a corresponding row line when the enable signal is activated and the corresponding one of the decode signals is activated. Delay circuitry delays certain of the address signals to stagger the activation of certain of the decode signals to permit multiple row lines to fire in a single row address strobe (RAS) cycle.

Abstract: An adaptive compression technique which is an improvement to Lempel-Ziv (LZ) compression techniques, both as applied for purposes of reducing required storage space and for reducing the transmission time associated with transferring data from point to point. Pre-filled compression dictionaries are utilized to address the problem with prior Lempel-Ziv techniques in which the compression software starts with an empty compression dictionary, whereby little compression is achieved until the dictionary has been filled with sequences common in the data being compressed. In accordance with the invention, the compression dictionary is pre-filled, prior to the beginning of the data compression, with letter sequences, words and/or phrases frequent in the domain from which the data being compressed is drawn. The letter sequences, words, and/or phrases used in the pre-filled compression dictionary may be determined by statistically sampling text data from the same genre of text. Multiple pre-filled dictionaries may be utilized by the compression software at the beginning of the compression process, where the most appropriate dictionary for maximum compression is identified and used to compress the current data. These modifications are made to any of the known Lempel-Ziv compression techniques based on the variants detailed in 1977 and 1978 articles by Ziv and Lempel.
