Abstract: A flow display method enabling the state of flows in a plane to be grasped together with inflow into and outflow from that plane. A Doppler method, for example, is used to obtain a velocity profile at each point in a planar area (100) of interest defined in a three-dimensional flow. A flow rate profile in the planar area (100) is found on the basis of the thus obtained velocity profile. From the flow rate profile and the velocity profile there are determined source points (12) representative of inflow into the planar area (100) and sink points (14) representative of outflow therefrom. Contour lines in the flow rate profile then join the source points (12) and the sink points (14) to obtain a display of planar streamlines (10). <IMAGE>

Abstract: When editing an image signal and a sound signal or these
signals multiplexed using a conventional digital signal editing
apparatus, it is necessary to provide a reproduction apparatus
for reproducing an original signal and a recording apparatus
for recording the signal edited. This significantly increases
the size of the editing system. 
     According to the present invention, a read-out unit 2
reads out I pictures, B pictures, P pictures, and a
reproduction information on a reproduction interval of this
coded data from a storage medium 1 allowing random access. A
storage unit 3 stores the reproduction information read out
from the storage medium 1 by the read-out unit 2. A control
unit 3 controls read-out of the read-out unit 2 according to
the aforementioned reproduction information from the storage
unit 3. A decoding unit 5 decodes the coded data which have
been read out by the read-out unit 2 controlled by the control
unit 4, in such a manner that the data are temporally
continuous and outputs an edited decoded data string.

Abstract: A computer operated apparatus estimates values needed by an optimiser in a database management system (DBMS). The DBMS has one or more tables for storing data, each table having zero or more columns of user-definable data types and zero or more associated user-defined routines (UDRs). The apparatus has a feature vector extractor connected to the database tables for converting the UDR inputs into a base type representation. A neural network receives the feature vector and generates estimated values which are provided to the optimiser of the DBMS. The neural network can be trained periodically using randomly generated queries, or it can be trained dynamically by capturing data generated during a query. During operation, the optimiser dynamically invokes the neural network to generate estimates such as selectivity and cost per call for determining optimum query search sequence.

Abstract: A method of producing clean gas from a biodegradable waste material comprises
breaking down the biodegradable waste material into a gas by pyrolysis. The pyrolysis takes
place at a temperature greater than 1200°C. After pyrolysis particulate residue having a
diameter greater than 25µm is filtered out using a cyclon type centrifugal filter (12). The gas
is then cooled by passage through a refrigerator (14) for cooling. Finally, the gas is passed
through a bag filter (18) which filters out particulate residue having a diameter substantially
greater than 10µm. The clean gas produced can be used to power a gas powered generator
or a boiler to produce heat, for example, for kiln drying or heating. Apparatus for carrying
out the method is also disclosed in which the pyrolysis is carried out within a chamber (11)
which is shaped so as to minimise the production of shock waves.

Abstract: A fingertip-operated solid state capacitance switch detects a capacity
change that is induced by the physical contact of an ungrounded fingertip to an
external dielectric surface of the solid state switch. The input (16) and output (17) of a
solid state signal-inverting amplifier (13) are respectively connected to two
relatively large and ungrounded capacitor plates (24,23) that are associated with, but
electrically isolated from, the switch's external dielectric surface. An
ungrounded fingertip forms a third capacitor plate on the switch's external
surface. The solid state amplifier detects the presence of a fingertip on the
switch's external surface by way of a change in capacitance within a
compound, three plate, capacitor that includes the two ungrounded capacitor
plates and the ungrounded fingertip that is resident on the switch's external
surface. An automatic gain control circuit is provided to adjust the value of an
amplifier reference voltage when the solid state switch is not operating,
thereby allowing the solid state switch to adapt to changeable ambient
conditions. A momentary switch and a toggle flip-flop latched switch are
provided. A linear switch array having a movable control knob and a linear
LED indicator array is provided. The momentary solid state switch is
constructed to operate as a temporal code detector that detects a coded
sequence of switch-taps and a coded time interval between adjacent switch-taps.
