Abstract: A novel cache architecture is disclosed that includes an autonomous cache memory address unit (200) for generating, independently of processor control, addresses to a cache (300) in support of cache operations. Block prefetch and writeback instructions are disclosed that can be used to import large amounts of data into a cache (300), or remove data therefrom, at a time before program execution requires those data or free memory space. In this way processor stalls are avoided. An aging/write buffer (340) provides a temporary buffer for cache evictions, which can itself be used as cache memory space. A cache tag interleaving scheme allows multiple simultaneous tag comparisons to addresses provided by different buses. Cache memory data blocks can also be interleaved.

Abstract: In a scanning electron microscope, a pair of fiducial patterns (10, 11) are so laid out on an X-Y stage so that they are separated with a distance equivalent to the distance between the optical axis of an optical microscope (5) and that of an electron optical system (3). The image signals of these patterns (10, 11) are captured by an image processing circuit (12). A position shift of the optical axis of the optical microscope (5) and a position shift of the optical axis of the electron optical system (3) with respect to the fiducial patterns (10, 11) are obtained by numerical calculation, and this position shift is used as an offset value in the actual measurement by the scanning electron microscope, which leads to an accurate positioning.

Abstract: A method and apparatus process an input signal along two paths so as to reject image signals created during processing. On the first path (A,E,F,D 2 ) the input signal is mixed (in 647) with a first component (from 606) of a first local oscillator (605) signal to generate a first signal at a first, non-zero intermediate frequency, the first signal is filtered, (in 664), and the filtered first signal and a first component (from 618) of a second local oscillator (619) signal are mixed (in 667) to generate a second signal at a second intermediate frequency, wherein the second intermediate frequency is higher than the first intermediate frequency. On the second path (A,B,C,D 1  ) the input signal is mixed (in 607) with a second component (from 606) of the first local oscillator (605) signal to generate a third signal at the first intermediate frequency, the third signal is filtered (in 614), and the filtered third signal and a second component (from 618) of the second local oscillator (619) signal are mixed (in 617) to generate a fourth signal at the second intermediate frequency. An output signal is generated (by 630) as a function of the fourth signal and the second signal in which output signal the image signals have been reduced.

Abstract: The method of inserting a cable (1) into a conduit buried under the ground that already contains a sheathed cable (2) involves the progressive insertion into the buried conduit of the flexible protective strip (10). The protective strip in cross-section has two regions. The first region (11) fits over the existing cable, displacing it toward the wall of the conduit. The other region (14) of the protective structure presses against the opposite wall of the conduit and forms a chamber (15,16) along its length to provide passage for the new cable that is to be inserted. The two regions of the protective structure have flexible side walls that wrap over to prevent contact between the cables and the walls of the conduit. When the protective structure is first inserted the second region carries a draw wire to allow the cable to be pulled through.

Abstract: The present invention provides a weighing apparatus for weighing coins accumulated in a coin hopper (10) using a load cell (12). By periodically monitoring the hopper and automatically calculating the number of coins in the hopper, theft of coins and other irregularities can be easily and timely detected. The unauthorized removal of coins during an actual or purported maintenance procedure can be detected by determining a count of coins before a hopper access door (2) is opened, counting the number of coins once the door is closed, and using those two counts to determine the change in the number of coins in the hopper. In a preferred embodiment, the identity of the person opening the hopper door and the time which the hopper door is opened and closed are recorded, along with any detected discrepancy in coin count.

Abstract: A vehicle body (6) provided with a seat portion (7) and footstools (8) is positioned on a fixed frame (2), which is positioned in a horizontal direction facing opposite a screen (1a) of a display (1), extending in a direction running at a right angle to the screen. In order to provide an operating device for a motorcycle simulation apparatus that provides a realistic feeling of operation, a handlebar (4) is secured on to a mobile frame (3) which is mounted in such a manner that it can slide freely in the left and right direction relative to the fixed frame, and the vehicle body is structured in such a manner that it can be caused to pivot freely in the left and right direction relative to the mobile frame by a pivoting mechanism (10) which includes a supporting shaft (5). The pivoting range of the vehicle body is regulated by a position regulating mechanism (30). When the vehicle body becomes inclined in the left and right direction, the operator can pull up the vehicle body to a vertical position while leaving his feet on the footstools by controlling his posture by holding the handlebar. The load applied to the vehicle body when the vehicle body is made to incline by placing weight on it works to cause the mobile frame to move to the opposite side from the side of inclination.

Abstract: Electrochemiluminescent enzymes, their preparation and use as biosensors are disclosed. Specifically, two appendages are covalently attached to a desired dehydrogenase enzyme; (1) a nicotinamide adenine cofactor or analog thereof, and (2) a luminescent ruthenium complex. For example, glucose concentrations is the following way. A doubly-modified glucose dehydrogenase could oxidize glucose with concomitant reduction of the attached NAD<+> to NADH. Because NADH, but not NAD<+>, is able to interact with surface ruthenium to promote ECL, only enzyme molecules that have reacted with glucose will emit light from their ruthenium label in an ECL instrument. The relative close proximity of NADH and ruthenium on the enzyme surface enhances light emission as compared to the same concentrations in free solution. When NADH reduces ruthenium, it returns to become NAD<+>, permitting multiple cycles of ECL light emission from a single enzyme molecule. Such biosensors can be used in solution or bound to a solid surface. Assays employing the biosensor molecules can be performed on an IGEN Origen<R >Analyzer.
