Abstract: There is disclosed an improved processor having improved exception handling capability. The processor processes instructions in order through a plurality of serial stages. A first set of registers continuously tracks each instruction as they are advanced from stage to stage. An exception handler processes first level exception conditions and precludes updating of the first set of registers when it processes first level exception conditions to permit the processor to restart at the point of a first level exception condition. A second set of registers continuously trans the instruction in tandem with the first set of registers, but is updatable during the processing of first level exception conditions by the exception handler. Monitor means processes second level exception conditions occurring in the exception handler and precludes the second set of registers from being updated when it processes the second level exception conditions to permit the exception handler to restart from the point of the occurrence of a second level exception condition.

Abstract: The method and device for fibre-optic measurement of the absolute value of the prestressing in a highly loaded mechanical component is based on measuring the phase shift in a light wave as caused by the voltage-induced double refraction in a monomode optical fibre (4) which is embedded between two metal discs (washers)(3a, 3b). Since the measurement results are ambiguously modulo 2 pi , serial or simultaneous measurement using two wavelengths ( lambda 1,  lambda 2) of light is proposed according to one variant method of the invention. By comparing the two measurement results, the number of the 2 pi  periods can be determined unambiguously in a prescribed measurement range. The evaluation is preferably performed in accordance with a quadrature or phase stage method known per se. …<??>In accordance with another variant method, the optical fibre (4) is irradiated with polarised white light. The phase difference between the two linear modes due to a force effect on the component is compensated in a compensation device (30). The actuating signal required to compensate the path difference is evaluated as a measure of the force. The compensation method has the advantage that no monochromatic light sources are required. …<IMAGE>…

Abstract: It has been found that the addition of specific levels of sodium, advantageously in the form of sodium carbonate, to low sodium level binder, e.g., ammonium alginate, containing carbonaceous fuel compositions results in dramatic changes in the performance of both the fuel element themselves and, cigarettes (or other smoking articles) incorporating the fuel elements. These performance differences include variation in the yields of aerosol and/or flavorants. The addition of sodium carbonate to the fuel elements greatly improves the smolder rates and also improves puff calories, without overheating the cigarette, thereby resulting in substantial improvements in total (and puff by puff) aerosol yield.

Abstract: A communications system permits a personal mobile telecommunications device user, such as a cellular telephone subscriber (102), to complete a connection to a calling party (101) that has attempted to reach the subscriber using the subscriber's assigned telephone number, even when the subscriber is roaming outside of his or her home area. The system includes a messaging and bridging complex (110) having an associated database (106), which receives a call placed to the subscriber. If the subscriber is out of his or her home area so that the call cannot be completed, information stored in the database is used to initiate transmission of a paging signal (from 112) to the subscriber. The connection to the calling party is held in the complex for a predetermined period after the paging signal is transmitted. The mobile telephone user (102), upon receiving the paging signal, may initiate a call from their personal mobile telecommunications device to the messaging and bridging complex, which bridges the subscriber and the calling party together. The system can also include interactive voice response equipment for advising the calling party that the call cannot be completed and that a paging signal is being transmitted. The calling party may also be offered other options, including an opportunity to use a voice mailbox or other facility to leave a message in the event that the call cannot be completed.
