Patent EP-0878935-A2 (EP)
Inventor: IIZUKA YOSHIO
IPC: G06F3/0482
Filed: 1998-05-08
Abstract: A network device control method and apparatus for
controlling various devices connected to a network cause a
setting sheet that is for setting the environment of a device
to be displayed on a screen so that the environment of the
device may be set. A request for read-out of management
information corresponding to each control on the setting
sheet is transmitted to the network. If read-out of the
management information succeeds, the information is set in
the corresponding control and the display state thereof is
enabled. If read-out fails and the reason is that the device
does not support the data, then the name of the control is
displayed in gray and the display is not displayed at all.
If the function is one supported by the device, on the other
hand, then the name of the control is displayed at ordinary
brightness and the corresponding data is displayed in gray.

Abstract: A wireless communications system for servicing mobile subscribers which dynamically optimizes the absolute number of channels reserved for use only as guard channels to minimize the blocking of handoff as well as new calls even under widely varying traffic and mobility conditions. This is accomplished by periodically first incorporating values, representative of traffic and mobility data typically collected in cellular systems, obtained over a given period of time, into an equation developed by the present inventors and calculating the number of guard channels needed to obtain assumed values of new and handoff call blocking; second changing the number of guard channels to the calculated value; and then third gathering data for a new period of time before returning to the first step.

Title: Elimination des defauts d'inadequation thermique que presentent des films de depot epitaxique en separant le substrat du film a la temperature de croissance
Inventor: SOLOMON GLENN S
IPC: H01L33/00
Filed: 1998-07-02
Abstract: L'invention concerne un concept et un procédé permettant d'éliminer un film de dépôt épitaxique d'un substrat à températures élevées, de manière à empêcher la formation de défauts induits par des contraintes liées à l'inadéquation thermique dans la couche épitaxiale. Le procédé consiste à faire réagir, en phase gazeuse, une couche intermédiaire déposée expressément avec un composant du flux gazeux lors de la croissance épitaxiale ou ultérieurement. Même si le concept d'une couche intermédiaire a été largement utilisé pour améliorer la qualité des cristaux de la couche épitaxiale, ce n'est pas là son rôle premier. Bien que cette couche intermédiaire puisse faciliter la nucléation de la couche épitaxiale, l'objectif est de séparer la matière épitaxiale de la couche intermédiaire du substrat situé sous la couche intermédiaire, à la température de croissance ou à une température proche de cette dernière, de manière à réduire les effets de la différence de coefficients de dilatation thermique entre le substrat et les couches épitaxiales. L'invention concerne également une application de ce concept, notamment la possibilité d'éliminer un film épitaxial épais de son substrat à des températures élevées. Cette couche épitaxiale peut alors être refroidie sans qu'il se forme de défauts dus à la différence de coefficients de dilatation thermique entre le substrat et l'épitaxie. On obtient ainsi une couche épitaxiale constituant un substrat pouvant servir soit à une nouvelle opération de dépôt épitaxial soit à la fabrication de dispositifs.

Abstract: Ce système de microscope d'imagerie catadioptrique, à ultraviolets (U.V.) et à très grande largeur de bande, est doté d'un effet de zoom à grande portée, il comprend un groupe de lentilles catadioptriques ainsi qu'un groupe de lentilles de tube zoom, et il possède une résolution optique élevée dans les longueurs d'ondes U.V. courtes, un grossissement réglable en continu ainsi qu'une ouverture numérique élevée. Ce système comporte des modules de microscope, tels que des objectifs, des lentilles de tube et des optiques à effet de zoom, ce qui permet de réduire le nombre de composants et de simplifier le procédé de fabrication du système. Le mode de réalisation préféré de l'invention offre excellente qualité d'image sur une gamme spectrale très large d'ultraviolets à courte longueur d'onde, grâce à la combinaison d'une lentille de tube zoom à matériau totalement réfléchissant. On a modifié la lentille du tube zoom pour compenser les aberrations chromatiques d'ordre élevé, lesquelles limitent normalement les performances de ce type de système.

Abstract: The invention concerns a clip for securing a glazing bead (12) to a window frame (10) and such
a glazing bead. The invention also concerns a method for mounting the glazing bead (12)
to the clip. The clip is provided with first tongues (2) and second tongues (7) intended for
engaging a first groove (23) and a second groove (24) in the glazing bead (12). The invention is distinguished
by it being possible to mount the glazing bead (12) to the window frame (10) by
moving the glazing bead (12) inward against a glass pane perpendicular to the plane of the
glass pane. This means that it is possible with the same system, even with the last
glazing beads (12), to assemble these in a mitre joint with adjacent glazing beads (12) at the
ends of the glazing bead. Furthermore, the security against burglary through the glass
pane is considerably increased as it by and large is impossible to remove the glazing
bead without destroying the glazing bead (12) and removing the clips.
