Abstract: A method of creating a sanitation level model with respect to a predefined microorganism in food processing equipment is provided. The method includes generally three steps. First, a temperature history during a use cycle of the food processing equipment is created. The temperature history includes a collection of a plurality of temperatures that the food processing equipment undergoes during the use cycle. The use cycle includes a normal use stage, a sanitizing stage, and perhaps an idle stage. Second, a growth model of the microorganism is continuously applied to each applicable temperature in the temperature history. Third, a death model of the microorganism is continuously applied to each applicable temperature in the temperature history. The created sanitation level models is used to ascertain the microorganism growth/death rate in the food processing equipment during the use cycle. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The polarization axes of the ends of two PM fibers are aligned in an automatic fiber splicer by first making a linear alignment of the fiber ends ( 1, 1' ) using movable retainers ( 21 ) the same way as for conventional splicing. The fiber ends are rotated by rotatable fixtures ( 22 ) to capture images by a camera ( 9 ) and therefrom, in an image processing and analysis unit ( 15 ), as controlled by logical circuits ( 33 ) light contrast profiles are determined as functions of the angular position. From the light contrast profiles the polarization axes are determined and then they are aligned with each other. The images are captured of an area at and around the fiber ends as seen in an observation plane. This observation plane is taken to have such a position that the variation of the light contrast profiles is sufficiently large, this making the determination of the angular positions of the polarization axes have a sufficient accuracy, also for for example elliptical core fibers.

Abstract: An immobilizer monitors the ignition status of a motor vehicle, in a low power sleep mode or while performing other tasks, and is responsive to a change in ignition status between an off state and an on state to become active from the sleep mode or to interrupt the other tasks. If the change is to an on state, the immobilizer initiates ignition control module interrogation of an ignition control module to check for a valid key in the ignition, authorizes or prevents engine operation according to the result and returns to the sleep mode when finished. If the change is to the off state, the immobilizer again initiates ignition control module interrogation of the ignition control module to check for a valid key in the ignition and sets a key in status datum true or false according to the result. Either the immobilizer itself or a separate body computer responsive to the key in status datum provides a key in ignition warning when a key in status datum of true is detected simultaneously with an open driver door. When the key in status datum is set false, the immobilizer returns to sleep mode or its other tasks.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method and a device for the scalable coding of image information, especially video image information. According to said method, in a first coding step comprising an entropy coding (EC), an input signal (IS) containing the image information is converted into a first coded signal comprising a plurality of code words (C1, C2,..., CN). A decoded value is associated with each code word (C1, C2,..., CN) and the first coded signal is converted into a second coded signal in a second coding step (SC). The first coded signal is compressed according to a desired transfer rate for the transmission of the image information and the compressed signal forms the second coded signal, the code words of the first coded signal being shortened and a representative being associated with each shortened code word.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the field of drug development. More specifically the invention provides a method for the identification of drug targets. The method can also be used for analysis of proteomes. The method utilizes in essence a combination of two chromatographic separations of the same type, separated by a step in which the population of the drug-bound targets is altered specifically on the drug in such a way that the chromatographic behaviour of the altered drug-bound targets in the second chromatographic separation differs from the chromatographic behaviour of its unaltered version. The different chromatographic behaviour of the altered drug-bound targets is used for the isolation and subsequent identification of the targets.
