Title: Relation path viability prediction
Inventor: AGASSI SHAI
IPC: G06F17/30
Filed: 2000-06-29
Granted: 2009-10-27
Abstract: There is provided a process for predicting whether a query will produce a result (514) in an information system formed of objects hav-i ng different instances and relations between the objects. An instance-to-ob-jec t bitmap (512) is computed off-line, before queries are generated by a user: the bitmap is used to represent the existence of a relation path from instances to the other objects of a database. When a query is generated, the bitmap is accessed to predict whether there exists a relation from the instance to the object, that is whether the query will issue a result. The process makes it possible for a user to abort queries (518) without consuming run-time. It also makes it possible to guide users through navigation of a WebPages or the like, by suggesting relations that will produce results.

Title: Differential dense wavelength division multiplexing (ddwdm) in optical systems
Inventor: SARRAF MOHSEN
IPC: H04J14/02
Filed: 2002-04-04
Granted: 2008-07-08
Abstract: An apparatus provides an optical wavelength division multiplexed signal having 2M optical channels such that each of M information-bearing signals are differently encoded onto 2 of the 2M optical channels. In particular, the apparatus comprises M inverters, 2M electrical-to-optical converters and a multiplexer. Each electrical-to-optical converter provides an optical signal at a different one of 2M wavelenghts. The apparatus receives the M information-bearing signals and (a) creates M optical signals, each at a different wavelength, by converting each of the M information bearing signals onto the optical domain via M of the 2M electrical-to-optical converters, and (b) creates M inverted optical signals, each at a different wavelength, by first inverting each of the M information bearing signals (via the M inverters) before conversion into the optical domain via the remaining M electrical-to-optical converters. The M optical signals along with the M inverted optical signals are then applied to the multiplexer, which provides an optical wavelength division multiplexed (WDM) signal having 2M channels.

Abstract: Sensors for motor and a reference position sensor are integrated in a sensor magnet for detection.      An annular sensor magnet is formed with a magnetized zone M1 corresponding to sensors 11U, 11V, and 11W for motor and with a magnetized zone M2 corresponding to a reference position sensor 12. The individual magnetized portions of the magnetized zone M2 are shifted as a whole in a leftward direction by a distance D from the magnetized zone M1. However, the direction of shifting has been partly reversed. Specifically, the magnetized portion 23 of the magnetized zone M2 is shifted in the right direction so that the magnetized portions 24 and 25 are narrowed accordingly. In this magnetized structure, the level of an output of the reference position sensor 12 is determined by generating triggers E1 to E6 on the rising edges of the sensor 11W for motor. Since the level is determined to be LOW only at one position, the output of the reference position sensor is fetched based on the determination.
