Abstract: Three improved modes of moving and copying an object within an application or between applications are disclosed: a) unmodified move and unmodified or modified copy from a data pane of a first display window to a "destination bin" of a second display window, b) unmodified copy from a "source bin" of a first display window to a data pane of a second display window, and 3) unmodified copy from a "source bin" of a first display window to a " destination bin" of a second display window. The three modes of moving/copying are performed with a CPU coupled to a display device, a cursor control device and a keyboard. Visual feedback is provided to the user throughout the different modes of moving and copying. As a result, a number of advantages over the prior art is achieved.

Abstract: A transparent film for forming, e.g., a toner image thereon is provided as an optically transparent sheet member having an opaque part. During the image forming, the position and conveyance state of the transparent film are detected optically by utilizing the opaque part. After the image formation, the opaque part is cleared by (i) detaching the opaque part under heating, or (ii) clarifying the opaque part by heating and/or light illumination. Accordingly, the opaque part required for image forming does not adversely affect the final transparent film product, such as an overhead projection film. The clearing of the opaque part may be performed, e.g., along with the fixation of the toner image onto the transparent film.

Abstract: In branch exchanges according to the invention, private automatic branch exchanges (PABX1, PABX2) are connected to user accesses (So) of a public integrated services digital network (ISDN). In the context of a branch-exchange-specific connection and service-feature control between the branch exchanges (PABX1, PABX2), the branch-exchange-specific signalling information is transmitted with the aid of the packet-oriented data service (DD) - preferably in accordance with the transmission procedure according to CCITT Recommendation X.31B - and the user information is transmitted with the aid of the basic service (BD) of the integrated services digital network (ISDN). Connecting the branch exchanges (KA) via user accesses (So) of an integrated services digital network (ISDN) formed virtual networks between private automatic branch exchanges (KA) with minimum additional expenditure with respect to circuitry and programming. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A dual buffer (10) internal to an imaging device (14) uses a one-way, over-running clutch system to buffer multiple sheets of media between an internal drum recorder (24) and a processor. The one-way over-running clutch system is incorporated into a drive system (20, 22) of a plurality of rollers (32a, 46a) that transport the media. An input set of rollers (32a) and an output set of rollers (46b) are driven independently to allow for two sheets (I1, I2) of media to be buffered simultaneously and at different speeds if desired. The buffer (10) is mounted pivotally within the imaging device (14) to allow access into the imaging device and to allow installation of a take-up cassette (98) as an alternative to the buffer (10).

Abstract: A distributed computing environment in which agent processes direct their own movement through a computer network. Place processes provide a computing context within which agent processes are interpreted. An agent process controls its movement from one place process to another within the network by using a ticket. An agent process which moves from one place process to another transports definitions of classes of which objects included in the agent process are members. An agent process which moves from one place process to a second place process avoids unnecessary transportation of objects included in the agent process by substituting equivalent objects which are found in the second place process. An agent process sends clones of the agent process to several place processes simultaneously. If two clones travel along paths which are coextensive for an initial portion thereof, a single clone is transported along the initial portion of the paths and other clones are formed from the single clone, thereby avoiding transferring redundant information along communications media. Two agent processes, which occupy a single place process, interact by exchanging references to one another. The single place process ensures that neither agent process receives a reference to the other agent process without simultaneously giving to the other agent process a reference to the former agent process. Unauthorized or inadvertent excessive use of network resources by an agent process, or a place process, is prevented by associating with each process a permit which defines various capabilities and resource allowances of the process.

Abstract: A method for writing patterns on a medium, especially self servowriting a rotating disk in a disk drive including a servo controlled actuator for positioning the head radially with respect to the disk, in which a position error signal equals a difference between a reference waveform and a measured relative position waveform derived from readback signals from the head interacting with the disk, including writing servo patterns on successive radial tracks of the disk using the actuator and deriving the reference waveform as a function of closed loop transfer function of the actuator and at least one measured position waveform. The frequency dependent gain of the servo loop may be set so that closed loop response of the servo loop has a magnitude less than unity at every integer multiple of disk rotation frequency, yet is high enough to provide substantial reduction of mechanical disturbances. Writing a series of first patterns along a track, displacing the head a known fraction of a track to a displaced position, and reading from selected ones of the first patterns position information for determining deviation information representative of deviation of the head from the known fraction, and using the deviation information to propagate second patterns at the displaced position with the deviation information encoded in the patterns. Spacing between adjacent tracks can be adjusted without writing the entire disk. Deviations in demodulated position signal arising from random placement errors in servo patterns may be cancelled. Apparatus for performing the methods and disk drives written by the method.

Abstract: An elastomeric trilaminate fabric for use in the waist band or leg cuff of disposable diapers, training pants and other similar products. The trilaminate has a middle elastomeric web sandwiched between a pair of gatherable inelastic webs. The elastomeric web may take the form of a scrim or a film made from elastomeric material. The nonwoven webs are made from staple or bicomponent fibers which have been carded and thermal bonded or spunbond. During manufacture, the nonwoven webs are ultrasonically pattern bonded to each other while the elastomeric web is in a stretched state. The elastomeric web is sandwiched between and captured by the bonded gatherable webs. Upon release of the tension applied to the elastomeric web, it will relax to an unstretched state. As the elastomeric web contracts, the nonwoven webs gather between the bonding points. The result is a stretchable laminate which elastically returns to an unstretched state when tension is removed.
