Patent EP-1127637-A2 (EP)
Inventor: BENZ MARK GILBERT
IPC: B22F9/08
Filed: 2001-02-23
Abstract: Nucleated casting systems and methods comprise the addition of
powders into a liquidus portion of the casting. The casting system forms a casting
comprising a liquidus portion that receives the refined liquid metal and a solidified
portion, the casting further comprising a fine-grain, homogeneous microstructure that
is essentially oxide- and sulfide-free and segregation defect free. The casting system
comprises a source of refined liquid metal, the refined liquid metal having oxides and
sulfides refined out of the metal; a solid metal particle addition system that adds solid
metal particles to a surface of the liquidus portion of the casting; and a nucleated
casting system for forming the casting. The solid metal particle addition system adds
solid metal particles that serve as nucleation centers during solidification of the
casting.

Abstract: The invention provides a means of reducing the force required for fitting a lever
connector. A connector 20 is divided into partitioned housings 22L and 22R. The
timing of the fitting operation differs for each of the partitioned housings 22L and 22R,
thereby causing the time at which peak fitting resistance occurs to differ. The peak
fitting resistance being dispersed over the period between the beginning and the ending
of the fitting operations of the two partitioned housings 22L and 22R. As a result, the
overall peak value of the fitting resistance (the force required for the fitting operation)
is reduced for the connector as a whole.

Abstract: A method and device for measuring the moisture content and workability of a granular material.
According to the method, use is made of the fact that the bulk density of a granular material, like
sand, initially decreases to a minimum with rising moisture content and subsequently increases.
When the volume and weight of a material mixture is measured, the moisture content can be
determined using a known curve, and thus for example the amount of water can be correctly
adjusted in the production of concrete. Thus, the desired workability is obtained. Preferably, the
volume is determined by laser measurement of the surface level of concrete being mixed.

Abstract: A field-effect semiconductor device, for example a MOSFET of the trench-gate type, comprises side-by-side device cells at a surface (10a) of a semiconductor body (10), and at least one drain connection (41) that extends in a drain trench (40) from the body surface (10a) to an underlying drain region (14a). A channel-accommodating region (15) of the device extends laterally to the drain trench (40). The drain trench (40) extends through the thickness of the channel-accommodating region (15) to the underlying drain region (14a), and the drain connection (41) is separated from the channel-accommodating region (15) by an intermediate insulating layer (24) on side-walls of the drain trench (40). A compact cellular layout can be achieved, with a significant proportion of the total cellular layout area accommodating conduction channels (12). The configuration in a discrete device avoids a need to use a substrate conduction path and so advantageously reduces the ON resistance of the device.

Abstract: A method for generating subtitles for audiovisual material received and analyses a text file containing dialogue spoken in audiovisual material and provides a signal representative of the text. The text information and audio signal are aligned in time using time alignment speech recognition and the text and timing information are then output to a subtitle file. Colours can be assigned to different speakers or groups of speakers. Subtitles are derived by receiving and analysing a text file containing dialogue spoken by considering each word in turn and the next information signal, assigning a score to each subtitle in a plurality of different possible subtitle formatting options which lead to that word. The steps are then repeated until all the words in the text information signal have been used and the subtitle formatting option which gives the best overall score is then derived.

Patent EP-1410167-A2 (EP)
Title: Mutability analysis in java
Inventor: KOVED LARRY
IPC: G06F9/45
Filed: 2001-09-17
Abstract: A system and method for detecting the mutability of fields and classes in an arbitrary program component written in an object oriented programming language is disclosed. A variable is considered to be mutable if a new value is stored into it, as well as if any of its reachable variables are mutable. The system and method uses a static analysis algorithm which can be applied to any software component rather than whole programs. The analysis classifies fields and classes as either mutable or immutable. In order to facilitate open-world analysis, the algorithm identifies situations that expose variables to potential modification by code outside the component, as well as situations where variables are modified by the analyzed code. An implementation of the analysis is presented which focuses on detecting mutability of class variables, so as to avoid isolation problems. The implementation incorporates intra- and inter-procedural data-flow analyses and is shown to be highly scalable. Experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of the algorithms.

Abstract: An electronic device such as a mobile telephone (1) is provided with a reader (21) for reading data from a physical data carrier (10). Physical data carriers are incorporated into accessories of the device, for example a telephone carrying case. The act of inserting the telephone (1) into the case causes the reader (21) to read data from the data carrier (10) and the data is used to implement required device settings of the electronic device. The data carrier may be a bar code, RF tag or contact tag. By providing a number of carrying cases each with its own data carrier (10), merely exchanging cases initiates a number of associated device settings to be selected. Each case may be associated with a particular environment or user context allowing the user to alter the behaviour of the device to suit context merely by interchanging carrying case. Data carrier may also be provided in other accessories such as car-telephone kits and battery chargers to alter device behaviour accordingly. Device settings include those which govern the type of information relayed to the user when the device receives information from data delivery services.

Dans un mode de réalisation préféré de la présente invention, des bords de butée et des systèmes de déviation sont pourvus dans les canaux de distribution des plaques polaires et permettent de dévier la direction principale d'écoulement sur la surface active des piles.
