Abstract: According to the present invention, SO X  in the exhaust gas of an internal combustion engine is absorbed by a sulfate absorbent which absorbs SO X  in the exhaust gas when the temperature is lower than a releasing temperature and releases the absorbed SO X  when the temperature becomes higher than the releasing temperature. When the exhaust gas temperature increases during the operation of the engine and reaches the releasing temperature, the temperature of the exhaust gas flowing into the sulfate absorbent is further raised to a predetermined temperature by supplying fuel to the exhaust gas passage upstream of the sulfate absorbent. The ratio of SO 3  in the SO X  mixture released from the sulfate absorbent changes in accordance with the temperature, and takes the highest value at a certain temperature (i.e., a peak temperature). Therefore, when the exhaust gas temperature is raised above the peak temperature, the ratio of SO 3  in the SO X  mixture released from the sulfate absorbent decreases as the temperature increases. In the present invention, the above-noted predetermined temperature is selected in such a manner that the ratio of SO 3  at this predetermined temperature becomes lower than the ratio of SO 3  at the releasing temperature. Therefore, when SO X  is released from the sulfate absorbent, the amount of SO 3 , i.e., the amount of particulate matter released into the atmosphere can be maintained at a low level.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for determining print quality of a printer wherein printed matter is controllably presented to an optical transducer unit which scans user or machine selected areas of said printed matter to generate a signal that is processed by a processing unit to determine print quality. The processing unit processes the signal in an efficient and rapid three step method in which the signal produced by the transducer unit is modified and segmented to determine general characteristics, recognized by a recognition engine and finally checked for voids, spots, blobs or the like. The invention provides an operator with the ability to set quality thresholds such as an acceptable number of quality defects in a single scan. If the number of quality defects exceeds the user input quality limit, the processor unit determines that the printed matter is poor quality and may cause the printer to cease printing.

Abstract: The present invention provides a structure for electrically connecting two or more layers spaced apart from each other in a multilayer printed wiring board, said structure being small in consumed area, tolerant to a high integration, high in the reliability of the process, and good in the yield of products. When forming a via hole in the second insulating layer formed in contact with the first insulating layer having a via hole, a via hole is formed right above the via hole in the first insulating layer. Since the via hole formed in the first insulating layer is filled with a predetermined filler prior to forming the second insulating layer, the consumed area is reducible.

Abstract: Utilizing a bridged line appearance feature in a switching system (104) allows additional individual PCS systems (121, 122) to be added as the number of wireless sets (111-114) increases. For each wireless set, a bridged line appearance is administered in the switching system having a group (101-103) of shared line appearance telephone links (109,110) where the number of telephone links in each group is equal to the number of individual PCS systems. When the switching system (104) receives a call for a particular wireless set (e.g. 111), the switching system signals the incoming call on each telephone link (109,110) that is part of the shared line appearance group for that particular wireless set. The PCS system (121) on which the particular wireless set (111) is presently registered responds to the incoming call signal by establishing a call between the particular wireless set and the incoming call. During the call, if the wireless set physically moves and establishes communications with a base station (117) of another PCS system (122), the other PCS system becomes active on the shared line appearance telephone link assigned to the wireless set on the other PCS system. The original PCS system becomes inactive on the shared line appearance telephone link associated with the wireless set when the wireless set transfers itself to the other PCS system. This allows the wireless set to be "handed off" to the other PCS system without the PCS systems having to directly implement the "handoff" operation.

Abstract: An improved client-server architecture of the present invention utilizes
the advantages of known QOS networks to provide guaranteed quality of service,
security, and a charge mechanism for handling requests initiated over a packet
network, such as the Internet, for access to distributed media sources. Such
media sources may be independent of the QOS network provider and may be
located by browsing the Internet. A method of operating a client-server network
enables the system level merger of the Internet and a guaranteed QOS network,
such as the public switched telephone network, in order to provide the users with
a complete information superhighway today. It will appear to the average user
that the Internet and QOS network are fused together. Thus, when a user,
connected to the Internet, selects an application that requires functionalities
offered by the telephone network, such as guaranteed QOS delivery of media
information or customized billing, the Internet-resident application will
communicate information to a server, which will in turn initiate a session over
the QOS network for delivery of the required information to the client using
client information transmitted from the client (or from the application) to the
server over the established Internet session. The client information may include
a client account number, login and password, and/or phone number to enable the
server to establish the switched network connection to the client. Accordingly,
media sources which are separate and independent from the QOS network
provider may be accessed using a secure, guaranteed QOS network in a manner
providing for ease of identification and billing.

Abstract: First and second circuits (CK1, CK2) have same
characteristics and each have non-inverting and
inverting input terminals between which virtual
grounding is formed. The non-inverting input terminals
(+) of the first and second circuits are commonly
connected together, and inverting input terminals (-)
thereof are respectively supplied with first and second
input signals. Further, a third circuit (CK3) is
provided between a reference potential supply source
(VR) and the non-inverting input terminals (+) of the
first and second circuits (CK1, CK2). The third
circuit (CK3) with two output terminals serves to set
the potential of the non-inverting input terminals (+)
of the first and second circuits (CK1, CK2). The first
output terminal is connected to the non-inverting input
terminals (+) of the first and second circuits (CK1,
CK2). The second output terminal is connected to a
refer-ence potential (V REF ). The main function of the
third circuit (CK3) is to produce such a voltage
between its two output terminals, respectively, that is
equal to an average value of the potential differences
(Vf1, Vf2) between the output terminal and input
terminal (-) of the first circuit (CK1) and between the
output terminal and input terminal of the second
circuit (CK2). The potential of the first terminal of
the third circuit (CK3) is therefore continuously
adjusted to  (Vf1+Vf2)/2+V REF   . The output voltages of
the first and second circuits (CK1, CK2) are fully
balanced with respect to the fixed potential applied to
the reference potential (V REF) .

Abstract: A fluid loss device (100) has a housing (200), a seal assembly (300), a running tool (400), and a plug (500). The housing of the fluid loss device is placed in a production string before a well bore is completed. The plug (500) is attached to the running tool (400), and the running tool is attached to a wash pipe (90). 
     The fluid loss device is activated by lifting the wash pipe (90) and the running tool (400), thereby engaging the plug (500) with the seal assembly (300), engaging the seal assembly (300) with the housing (200), and severing the plug (500) from the running tool (400). Activation of the fluid loss device (100) inhibits fluid communication through the fluid loss device (100) and reduces damage to the well structure behind the fluid loss device while completion operations are performed in other areas of the well bore. 
     The fluid loss device (100) is deactivated by forcing the plug (500) through the fluid loss device (100) with mechanical force or pressure, or by chemically eroding the diameter of the plug (500) until the plug (500) passes through the fluid loss device (100).

Abstract: L'invention porte sur un système de microscopie et/ou de lithographie utilisant un système de projection d'images à résolution relativement faible présentant une ouverture numérique très faible mais un grand champ, associé à un réseau de microlentilles dont chacune présente une ouverture numérique très grande et un champ très petit. Ledit système de projection comporte un spot de petite ouverture qui est mis en image par les microlentilles de manière à former sur l'échantillon du microscope ou sur la surface d'impression un réseau de microspots à diffraction limitée en des points correspondant au foyer des microlentilles, tandis que la surface est balayée pour constituer une image tramée complète du réseau de foyers. La conception du système évite les nécessaires compromis entre la résolution de l'image et la taille du champ qui sont la source de beaucoup de la complexité et du coût des systèmes classiques de microscopie et de microlithographie à champ large et grande ouverture. Le système permet d'obtenir des champs plats et des images exemptes de distorsions, avec une compensation précise du recouvrement, de l'acuité de l'image en profondeur, et du voilement, et cela pour des champs d'images très vastes (plus vastes que les limites pratiques des moyens classiques de formation d'images). Dans l'une des variantes, la source d'image est un micromiroir numérique, ce qui élimine potentiellement le recours aux photomasques dans la fabrication des semi-conducteurs.
