Inventor: HANSEN DAVID ROBERT
IPC: G06F3/0482
Filed: 2002-02-19
Abstract: A system and method for managing production printing workflow (100) is disclosed. The
system includes workflow management software which manages and facilitates the
procedural stages of the workflow (100) including job origination (102), job submission
(104), job preparation (106) and job fulfillment (108). The workflow management software
provides an integrated object oriented interface which visually reflects and interacts with
the workflow (100). The software further provides functionality for efficient page level
modifications to documents at the job preparation stage. This functionality allows such
modifications to be easily made to selected pages and visually verified by displaying
visual representations of the modifications on visual representations of the pages. In
particular, the insertion and attributes of ordered media, such as tab separator pages, is
visually represented. This allows an operator to visually verify ordered media ordering and
placement and coordinate with the production output device to properly insert and
efficiently utilize the ordered media.

Abstract: The plasma display panel having brightness display ranges comprising a
gradation brightness display range (1) which displays gradation brightness
corresponding to the input signals under a preset input signal level (LM) and a constant
peak brightness display range (2) which displays a constant peak brightness (P) greater
than the maximum brightness (M 3 ) corresponding to input signals greater than the
preset input signal level (LM). The plasma display panel can provide the gradation
display up to the maximum brightness (M 3 ) corresponding to the input signals up to the
maximum input signal level (LM) and provide the constant peak brightness (P)
corresponding to the peak level input by adding one additional weighting bit for the
higher gradation. Consequently, a high quality brightness display with high mean
value of the brightness and sufficiently high peak brightness can be achieved.
Furthermore, the plasma display panel enhances the brightness weighting value and the
value of γ for the reverse γ correction when the input signals go over the preset
value and decrease the values to the original values when the input signals drop below
the preset value. The plasma display panel can provide the gradation display up to the
maximum brightness M 3  corresponding to the input signals up to the maximum input
signal level LD and provide the gradation display up to the peak brightness P greater
than the maximum brightness M 3  corresponding to the input signals over the maximum
input signal level LD.

Abstract: The impact force upon collision of a pushing member of a
splicing device becomes large, strength becomes inconsistent
as a result of a pushing force due to reactive force, and paper
splicing therefore becomes unstable due to it taking time to
suppress this, and paper splicing precision therefore falls. A
paper splicing device 1 is provided with a pressing member 12
for pressing running paper web W taken from one paper roll A
against the peripheral surface of a paper roll B rotatably driven
in such a manner that the peripheral surface moves at
substantially the same speed as the speed of running of the
paper web W. The paper splicing device 1 has pressing means 13
for pressing and actuating the pressing member 12 so as to
press the paper web W against the peripheral surface of the
paper roll B, and at least one shock absorbing means 14
provided facing the direction of operation of a member coupling
as a result of a pressing operation of the pressing means 13 and
being capable of absorbing an impact when the paper web W is

Abstract: A method of starting an electric brushless rotating machine
is provided where a large startup torque is obtained with no
use of any rotor position detecting device and the forced
commutation can be switched to normal energization easily and
smoothly. At the startup stage, any two of three-phase stator
windings are energized for initial magnetization (Steps S1 and
S2) to hold the magnetic rotor at a position. Then, the windings
of the phases are energized in a sequence while gradually
increasing the level of the energization (Step S3). During the
forced commutation, the magnetic rotor (12) is rotated by a
rotating position detecting signal generated from a voltage
signal induced on the not-energized windings to drive the output
shaft of an engine. Then, the energization is canceled when
the number of revolutions in the internal combustion engine (2)
determined from the rotating position detecting signal reaches
its predetermined level.

Abstract: A media manager provides data flow management and
other services for client applications on devices coupled
together within a network. Preferably, these devices are
coupled together within an IEEE 1394-1995 serial bus
network. A device control module is generated for each
available device for providing an abstraction for all of
the capabilities and requirements of the device including
the appropriate control protocol, physical connections and
connection capabilities for the device. The media manager
also manages the flow and format of data transfers between
the devices on the network. Through an interface, a user
accesses the media manager and enters functions which are
to be completed using the devices coupled together on the
network. If the appropriate devices are available, the
media manager controls and manages the completion of the
requested task. If the appropriate devices are not
available, but the required subdevices are available in
multiple devices, the media manager forms a virtual device
from subdevices in multiple devices in order to complete
the requested task. Once the appropriate devices and
subdevices are assigned to a task, the media manager
determines if the data to be transmitted needs to be
converted from one format into another format. If
necessary, the media manager will also control the format
conversion during the data transfer operation. The media
manager also provides network enumeration and registry
searching capabilities for client applications to find
available services, physical devices and virtual devices.

Abstract: In the method of deoxidation casting, a disused metal left in
a feeder head (16) can be easily removed from a cast product (60),
or the molten metal left in the feeder head (16) can be removed
from the cast product (60) so as to easily finish the cast product
(60). The method comprises the steps of: pouring a molten metal
into a cavity (12b) of a casting die (12); and reacting a deoxidizing
compound with the molten metal so as to deoxidize an oxide film
formed on a surface of the molten metal. And the method is
characterized in that rate of cooling the molten metal in a feeder
head (16) of the casting die (12) is lower than that in the cavity
(12b), and that the molten metal in the feeder head (16), which is
not solidified, is treated when the molten metal in the cavity (12b)
is solidified so as to make an outline of a cast product (60)
correspond to that of a desired product.

Abstract: A method and system for employing pixel-based, signal-intensity data
contained within areas (802, 804, 806, 808, 810, 814, 822) of a scanned image of a
molecular array corresponding to features (802, 810, 812, 820) and feature backgrounds
(804, 806, 808) in order to determine whether or not the features or feature backgrounds
have non-uniform signal intensities and are thus outlier features and outlier feature
backgrounds. A calculated, estimated variance for the signal intensities within a feature
or feature background is compared to a maximum allowable variance calculated for the
feature or feature background based on a signal intensity variance model. When the
experimental variance is less than or equal to the maximum allowable variance, the
feature (802) or feature background (804) is considered to have acceptable signal-intensity
uniformity. Otherwise, the feature (810, 812, 822) or feature background (806,
808) is flagged as an outlier feature or outlier feature background.
