Abstract: An exhaust gas purification apparatus (60) estimates
the amount (sNox) of NOx stored in a NOx catalytic converter
(49) arranged in an exhaust passage (48) of an engine (2),
based on an operating state of the engine. When the amount
of stored NOx is greater than a predetermined storage limit
(NoxCAP), the concentration of fuel in the air fuel mixture
is increased so that the fuel concentration becomes higher
than that of a stoichiometric mixture in order to reduce the
amount of stored NOx. The apparatus includes a fuel cutting
means (60, 22) that cuts
the supply of fuel to the engine based on the operating
state of the engine. A stored NOx reduction means (60, 22,
46) temporarily increases the
fuel concentration of the air fuel mixture so that the fuel
concentration becomes higher than that of a stoichiometric
mixture at one point in a period from when the fuel cut is
terminated to just before the stored amount of NOx exceeds
the predetermined storage limit.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method and apparatus for generating a test
sequence to test a fault in a digital circuit. According to
this method and apparatus, when a fault propagation process for
a fault, for which a test sequence is generated is not
successful, at least a segment of a path to propagate the
effects of the fault is memorized as illegal information. And
the fault propagation process is restarted for the same fault
without selecting the illegal information. Hence, the chance
of a successful fault propagation process is increased, which
leads to the improvement of the fault coverage. 
     In addition, according to the apparatus and method, it is
detected whether a state transition goes into a loop (i.e., two
identical states exist) in the state initialization process and
then the process is restarted by defining the state caused the
loop as an illegal state. Hence, the chance of a successful
state initialization process is increased, which leads to the
improvement of the fault coverage.

Abstract: Methods, data formats, and computer program products are disclosed for
exchanging configuration data between a configuration server schema residing on a
configuration server and a network directory service. The exchange of data is
significantly enhanced through the use of an extension to a network directory service
enabling a rapid mapping between a directory service attribute and a configuration
server property. A directory service entry includes multiple shadow attributes where
each shadow attribute corresponds to a particular directory service attribute. The
particular directory service attribute, in turn, has a corresponding property in the
configuration server. The extension also includes a correspondence or path matching
file that contains matches between directory service addresses and configuration
server location identifier or paths. Through the use of the shadow attributes and the
path matching file, configuration data can be exchanged efficiently and rapidly
between a configuration server and a network directory service.

denote measuring positions at mutually different two
measuring times on an arbitrary measuring point appearing
on an image obtained through viewing a predetermined
measurement space from a predetermined observation point
inside the measurement space, respectively, p inf  denotes a
position of the measuring point after an infinite time
elapses, and p c  denotes a position of the measuring point
at a superposing time in which a measuring plane including
the measuring point is superposed on the observation point
in the moving continuous state.

distributed modems to define a plurality of different upstream logical channels sharing the
same frequency band, each said logical channel having either a different symbol rate but the
same multiplexing type or the same multiplexing type but a different symbol rate, said
upstream channel descriptor messages assigning each of said distributed modems to logical
channels appropriate to the symbol rate and modulation type of said distributed modem; and,
scheduling transmission bursts on each said logical channel by transmitting a bandwidth
award and scheduling message for each logical channel each of which defines and controls
which distributed modems on the logical channel to which the bandwidth award and
scheduling message can transmit and when they can transmit, said bandwidth award and
scheduling messages being coordinated by said central modem so that there is never any
overlap in time between transmission bursts on different logical channels sharing the same
frequency band.

Abstract: Time between recording print on one media sheet and a subsequent media sheet
is substantially reduced by ejecting, picking and loading within a single transmission state. In a
continuous feed mode multi-sheet job, individual media sheets (M) are continuously picked and
loaded. The leading edge of one media sheet is substantially adjacent to the trailing edge of the
prior media sheet. A media support plate (36) is maintained in a raised position during the
entire continuous feed cycle. The support plate biases a paper stack (39) into communication
with a pick roller (22). As the trailing edge of one media sheet exits the media stack, the
leading edge of the next media sheet is already in position for engagement with the pick roller.
Upon completion of print recording, a media sheet is ejected into an output tray (21) by
accelerating the media sheet. Such acceleration is achieved while remaining in the single
transmission state.
