Abstract: A system and method is disclosed for radiation dose calculation within sub-volumes of a particle transport grid. In a first step of the method voxel volumes enclosing a first portion of the target mass are received. A second step in the method defines dosel volumes which enclose a second portion of the target mass and overlap the first portion. A third step in the method calculates common volumes between the dosel volumes and the voxel volumes. A fourth step in the method identifies locations in the target mass of energy deposits. And, a fifth step in the method calculates radiation doses received by the target mass within the dosel volumes. A common volume calculation module inputs voxel volumes enclosing a first portion of the target mass, inputs voxel mass densities corresponding to a density of the target mass within each of the voxel volumes, defines dosel volumes which enclose a second portion of the target mass and overlap the first portion, and calculates common volumes between the dosel volumes and the voxel volumes. A dosel mass module, multiplies the common volumes by corresponding voxel mass densities to obtain incremental dosel masses, and adds the incremental dosel masses corresponding to the dosel volumes to obtain dosel masses. A radiation transport module identifies locations in the target mass of energy deposits. And, a dose calculation module, coupled to the common volume calculation module and the radiation transport module, for calculating radiation doses received by the target mass within the dosel volumes.

Abstract: A cancellation circuit is provided for canceling undesirable intermodulation (IM) products in electrical circuitry. The IM cancellation circuit includes a stepping spectrum analyzer which recognizes and measures the frequencies and amplitudes of different signal components of an RF signal across a desired frequency band. This information is forwarded to a processor which contains look-up tables or the like which provides information relating to the frequencies and/or amplitudes of signal components which are intended to reside in the RF signal. By comparison of the look-up tables to the frequencies and amplitudes measured and recognized by the sweeping spectrum analyzer, the processor of the cancellation circuit is able to determine whether the signal components in the RF signal are intended "information" carrying signals or unintended IM products. Where the processor has determined that a signal component is an unintended IM product, the processor controls a variable voltage controlled oscillator and variable amplifier to create a cancellation signal having an identical frequency and amplitude as the frequency and amplitude of the IM product. A phase shifter is provided to shift the phase of the cancellation signal 180° with respect to the IM product and the cancellation signal is combined with the RF signal to produce an output signal having the IM product canceled.

Abstract: The high-performance, RISC core based microprocessor architecture permits concurrent execution of instructions obtained from memory through an instruction prefetch unit having multiple prefetch paths allowing for the main program instruction stream, a target conditional branch instruction stream and a procedural instruction stream. The target conditional branch prefetch path allows both possible instruction streams for a conditional branch instruction to be prefetched. The procedural instruction prefetch path allows a supplementary instruction stream to be accessed without clearing the main or target prefetch buffers. <??>Each instruction set includes a plurality of fixed length instructions. An instruction FIFO is provided for buffering instruction sets in a plurality of instruction set buffers including a first buffer and a second buffer. <??>An instruction execution unit including a register file and a plurality of functional units is provided with an instruction control unit capable of examining the instruction sets within the first and second buffers and scheduling any of the instructions for execution by available functional units. Multiple data paths between the functional units and the register file allow multiple independent accesses to the register file by the functional units as necessary for the execution of the respective instructions. <??>The register file includes an additional set of temporary data registers. These temporary data registers are utilized by the instruction execution control unit to receive data processed by the functional units by the out-of-order execution of instructions in advance of the completed execution of a conditional branch instruction or any instruction that requires additional functional unit processing cycles to complete. The data stored in the temporary data registers is selectively held, cleared or retired to the register file depending on the actual state of the instruction stream at the point where all prior instructions have been executed. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The present invention provides a nonwoven fabric of a multilayer construction including a first fibrous web layer which defines one outer surface of the nonwoven fabric and a second fibrous web layer which defines the opposite outer surface of the fabric. The first fibrous web layer comprises bicomponent or biconstituent fibers which include both a relatively higher fusion point first polymer and a lower fusion point second polymer. The second fibrous web layer comprises fibers of the relatively higher fusion point first polymer. A plurality of fusion bonds serve to bond the fibers of the first web and the fibers of the second web to form a coherent multilayer fabric. The first and second fibrous webs may be bonded directly to one another by the fusion bonds. Alternatively, one or more intermediate layers may be located between the outer first and second fibrous webs. The first fibrous web layer is a "bico-rich" layer containing from 10 to 100 percent by weight of the bicomponent or biconstituent fibers. In comparison with the first web, the second web is a "bico-lean" layer and may be formed entirely of mono-component fibers, or from a mixture of bico- and mono-component fibers. If bico fibers are present, they are in a proportion significantly less than in the bico-rich layer. Consequently, the first web has a thermal fusing temperature which is less than that of the second web.

A first channel is provided in the lower portion, and a second channel is provided in the upper portion, the first and second channels being perpendicular to and in fluid communication with one another. A generally cylindrical stem is coaxially positioned within the second channel, the stem being rotatably mounted about its longitudinal axis. The stem is hollow and has an open front end, a closed rear end and a hole in its side wall, the hole being rotatably alignable with the first channel. To facilitate rotational alignment of the hole with the first channel, a stop is formed on the exterior of the stem, the stop being engageable with a surface positioned within the second channel. The front end of the stem is recessed relative to the front end of the second channel to prevent unwanted rotation of the stem. Rotation of the stem from a closed position to an open position is achieved by screwing a syringe onto the front end of the stem. The proximal end of the gastrostomy feeding tube is inserted over the lower portion of the body and is secured thereto with a nut.
