cavity devices for emitting or absorbing light. 
     A DBR for reflecting radiation with a wavelength λ, according to the present
invention, includes at least one mirror pair. Each mirror pair comprises a bottom layer
and a top layer, the top layer of one mirror pair comprising gallium phosphide (GaP)
and having an optical thickness of substantially an odd multiple of λ/4. 
     A resonant cavity device (40) for emitting or absorbing light with a wavelength
λ, according to the present invention, comprises a first mirror (44) and a second mirror
(68) with an active region (54) located therebetween. The second mirror (68)
comprises a stack of DBRs including at least one mirror pair (69, 70), the mirror pair
(69, 70) having at least a top layer (70) and a bottom layer. The top layer (70) is the

Abstract: In the production of bisphenol A by condensation of phenol and acetone
with the use of a cation exchange resin as a catalyst and optionally a free
mercaptan as a promoter, the degree of conversion of phenol is maintained by
increasing the molar ratio of acetone/phenol with the deterioration of the
cation exchange resin. 
     With this method, bisphenol A can be effectively produced with industrial
advantage.

Abstract: A method for producing a cylinder block capable of
providing sufficient bonding between the cylinder liner and
a block body. The cylinder block producing method includes
an inner peripheral surface roughening process, outer peripheral
surface roughening process, adiabatic particle adhesion
process, and melt bonding process. In the inner peripheral
surface roughening process, shot blasting is performed
to the inner surface of the cylinder liner. In the
outer peripheral surface roughening process, semi-spherical
dimples are formed on the outer surface of the cylinder
liner by sinking the shot balls by their semi-spherical
amount into the liner by means of shot blasting.
In the melt-bonding process, a molten metal is filled around the
cylinder liner to form a cylinder block while the liner is
held by a metal mold and while a part of the metal mold is
abutted to the inner surface of the cylinder liner.

Abstract: A catalytic hydrocracking process wherein a first hydrocarbonaceous
feedstock is contacted with a hydrogen and a metal promoted hydrocracking
catalyst in a hydrocracking reaction zone at elevated temperature and pressure
to obtain conversion to lower boiling hydrocarbons. The resulting hot, uncooled
effluent from the hydrocracking reaction zone is hot hydrogen stripped in a
stripping zone maintained at essentially the same pressure as the hydrocracking
zone to produce a first gaseous hydrocarbonaceous stream and a first liquid
hydrocarbonaceous stream. At least a portion of the first liquid
hydrocarbonaceous stream is preferably recycled to the hydrocracking reaction
zone. A second hydrocarbonaceous feedstock having a boiling temperature
range lower than that of the first hydrocarbonaceous feedstock is introduced into
an upper end of the stripper to serve as reflux. The first gaseous
hydrocarbonaceous stream is removed from the stripper and passed to a post-treat
hydrogenation reaction zone to saturate aromatic compounds.

Abstract: A liquid and gas separator system
includes an inlet (34) that receives a first gas sample. The first gas
sample at least partially includes liquid introduced from a patient in a gaseous
or liquid form. The liquid and gas separator system also includes a first
chamber (40) coupled to the inlet (34) and configured to receive the first gas
sample. The first chamber (40) includes a drain aperture (42). An outlet (36)
is coupled to the first chamber (40) and is configured to receive a second gas
sample from the first chamber (40). The second gas sample is derived from
the first gas sample, that is the second gas sample includes less liquid than
the first gas sample. The second chamber (50) is substantially sealed around
the first chamber (40). The first chamber (40) receives a combined gas and
liquid from the inlet and separates at least some of the liquid from the gas.
The first chamber (40) is configured to have liquid deposited at the bottom of
the first chamber (40). The liquid deposited at the bottom of the first chamber
(40) is subsequently transferred to the second chamber (50) through the drain
aperture (42) by a pumping action created by a pressure gradient in the inlet
line (16). The pressure gradient is created by liquid water at least partially
blocking the free flow of gas through the sample line inlet (16).

Title: Accessing legacy applications from the internet
Inventor: GUNGABEESOON SATISH
IPC: G06F9/44
Filed: 2001-07-23
Abstract: Interactive legacy applications can be run from a network, such as the Internet, without requiring any code changes in the application. Typically, legacy applications are critical to a business, are self-contained on the computer, have mixed business and user interface logic, and were written before distributed computing emerged. Separating business logic from user interface logic as required by web application architectures is not practicable in the case of legacy applications. A client has a network user agent which can access a network server connected to the computer. When an application is invoked from the network user agent, a runtime data redirector intercepts the application's raw data and sends the data to the network server which then serves the data across the network to the network user agent. Input data from the user entered through the network user agent are sent back to the application via the same runtime intercept.
