Abstract: A method for determining an aliphatic aldehyde based on the reaction
with MBTH (3-methyl-2-benzothiazolinone hydrazine, CAS
4338-98-1) and the intermediate formation of an azine. The azine reacts
in a second reaction with oxidised MBTH to form an intensely blue
colored formazan. Ferric chloride is used as oxidant. 
     The end color might be different depending upon the order of addition
of the reactants. If the oxidising agent and the MBTH are mixed before
adding the aldehyde, a light green to green/blue is observed.

Abstract: A reconfigurable processor architecture. A reconfigurable processor is an
array of a multiplicity of various functional elements, between which the
interconnections may be programmably configured. The inventive processor is
implemented on a single substrate as a network of clusters of elements. Each cluster
includes a crossbar switching node to which a plurality of elements is connected via
ports. Additional ports on the crossbar switching node connect to the switching nodes
of nearest neighbor clusters. The crossbar switching nodes allow pathways to be
programmably set between any of the ports, and any pathway may be set to be either
registered or unregistered. The use of clusters of processing elements allows complete
freedom of local connectivity for effective configuration of many different processing
functions. Wide area interconnection is more restricted, but, since it is less used, does
not significantly restrict configurability. The inventive processor thus provides 1)
high configurability with a low cost of switching network overhead; 2) constant clock
speed, independent of configuration; and 3) very high clock speed since all
communication is local or nearest neighbor.

Abstract: The present invention provides a motor controller
capable of driving a synchronous motor having no position sensor
stably at high efficiency by carrying out simple control. In
order to attain this purpose, a reactive current is obtained
from a motor current and a rotation phase, an error voltage is
obtained from the reactive current and the command value of the
reactive current, thereby obtaining a motor applied voltage
command value Va that is used to compensate for the V/f
characteristic of the motor. Furthermore, the motor applied
voltage command value Va is applied to an output command computing
section, and computed with the rotation phase signal of a wave
generation section, thereby obtaining a signal for PWM driving
the switching devices of an inverter circuit.
