Patent EP-1220531-A2 (EP)
Inventor: GEIGEL JOSEPH M
IPC: G06V10/771
Filed: 2001-12-17
Abstract: A system and method for automatic creation of digital image albums.
A Page Creator Module utilizes a genetic engine and a layout evaluation module. The
genetic engine evolves a group of images to a plurality of album pages, based on
certain layout criteria. The evaluation module calculates layout criteria and compares
them with user preferences. When an acceptable image/page layout has been
generated, the image/page assignments are transferred to an Image Placement
Module. The Image Placement Module utilizes a second genetic engine, which
evolves various criteria to generate page layouts genetic structures. These structures
define the location, scale, and rotation of images placed on a given page. A layout
evaluation module calculates and compares these layouts with certain other
preferences and page requirements. When a suitable layout has been generated, a
final album output is generated, which may be displayed, printed, or otherwise
transferred for subsequent utilization. ' .

Inventor: ARAMBEPOLA BERNARD
IPC: H04L25/03
Filed: 2001-03-29
Abstract: A QAM demodulator comprises a timing synchroniser 7 whose output is supplied via an
adaptive equaliser 8 to a carrier synchroniser 9, all of which are controlled by a
controller 6. The timing synchroniser 7 resamples the incoming signal in the digital
domain with a sampling period which, during an acquisition mode, sweeps between
limit values at different rates. The controller 6 begins an acquisition cycle at the highest
rate and monotonically lowers the sweep rate until timing lock is achieved. The
sampling rate is then fixed at the correct value. Similarly, the controller 6 sweeps the
local oscillator of a phase locked loop in the carrier synchroniser 9 initially at a highest
rate and at progressively lower rates until the carrier synchroniser 9 locks to the phase
of the incoming signal.

Abstract: The accurate determination of the presence of a fluid in a container is determined
by assessing the difference in various pressure readings relative to a threshold value. The
method distinguishes between actual aspiration of a fluid and aspiration of a film that can
otherwise lead one to believe that fluid has been aspirated when it has not. The method is
particularly useful in clinical analyzers such as automated enzyme immunoassay device

Abstract: L'invention concerne des individus membres soumettant des contacts (ou d'autres) informations par l'intermédiaire d'un réseau vers un serveur, lequel stocke les informations en tant qu'enregistrements de données. Chaque membre choisit un mot de passe et reçoit un code d'identification ('IDC'), tous deux correspondant aux enregistrements de données respectifs de membres. Les mots de passe permettent aux membres d'accéder et de modifier des informations contenues dans les enregistrements de données respectifs, alors que les IDC permettent aux destinataires, auxquels les IDC ont été attribués, d'accéder (mais pas de modifier) les enregistrements de données par l'intermédiaire du réseau. Pour ce faire, le destinataire accède à une interface de programme. Les IDC reçus par le destinataire sont entrés dans le programme d'interface, lequel télécharge depuis le serveur des copies des données enregistrées correspondant à l'IDC se trouvant sur la liste. Le programme d'interface peut accéder au serveur pour visualiser et mettre à jour les copies locales des enregistrements de données après que les membres aient modifié les informations stockées dans les enregistrements de données respectifs.

Abstract: Selon l'invention, un substrat en verre est façonné par faisceau ionique, en vue d'être lissé et/ou de réduire ou d'éliminer des nano-fissures présentes dans la surface du substrat avant le dépôt d'un système de revêtement (par exemple, un système de revêtement d'inclusion de carbone de type diamant (DLC)) sur celui-ci. Il a été découvert qu'un tel façonnage par faisceau ionique du substrat avant le dépôt du système de revêtement permet d'améliorer l'adhérence du système de revêtement au substrat façonné sous-jacent. De plus, il a été étonnamment découvert qu'un tel façonnage par faisceau ionique du substrat permet d'obtenir un article revêtu plus résistant à la griffure quand un système de revêtement d'inclusion DLC est ensuite déposé par faisceau ionique sur le substrat façonné. Des quantités de sodium (Na) peuvent également être réduites au niveau de la surface du substrat par un tel façonnage.

IPC: G01R31/26

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé de surveillance d'une plaquette semi-conductrice lors d'une opération de traitement par rotation. On mesure la valeur de capacité entre un détecteur de capacité (124) et la plaquette (116) alors que la plaquette tourne. Lorsque l'on a déterminé que la valeur de capacité mesurée a atteint un niveau souhaité essentiellement constant, un signal (130) est généré indiquant que la surface de la plaquette semi-conductrice est dans l'état souhaité, par exemple, sèche. Selon un autre procédé, on dirige la lumière vers une surface de la plaquette alors que la plaquette tourne. La lumière est dirigée de manière à ce que la lumière réfléchie par la surface de la plaquette soit quasi perpendiculaire à la surface de la plaquette. L'intensité de la lumière réfléchie par la surface de la plaquette semi-conductrice est alors mesurée. Un signal indiquant que la surface de la plaquette se trouve dans l'état souhaité est généré, lorsque l'intensité mesurée de lumière réfléchie par la surface de la plaquette atteint un niveau d'intensité correspondant à une intensité mesurée de lumière réfléchie par la surface de la plaquette, lorsque la surface est dans l'état souhaité. Selon les procédés d'essorage rotatif de plaquettes semi-conductrices, on interrompt la rotation de la plaquette en réponse au signal. L'invention concerne également un appareil de séchage par rotation d'une plaquette semi-conductrice incluant un détecteur de capacité ou un détecteur interférométrique.

Abstract: In an automatic printing plate exposure device, when temporarily
positioning a printing plate, a position of the printing plate in a temporary

When actually positioning the printing plate in an exposure section, a position of
the printing plate in an actual direction is determined by the printing plate
abutting a pair of positioning pins. An angle of inclination in the temporary
direction with respect to a front is set smaller than an angle of inclination in the
actual direction. When positioning the printing plate, a position at which the
printing plate abuts the pair of positioning pins and a reference pin, and a position
at which the printing plate abuts the pair of positioning pins and the reference pin
at a time of positioning in the exposure section, substantially coincide.
