Abstract: Method and apparatus for automotive tyre condition
and other article assessment is based upon radiation
analysis of a rotated tyre. Analysis of reflected
radiation on the basis of intensity sensing provides
a measure of tread depth and sidewall profile,
together with tread location and other data. By
positional analysis of the tread depth locations
there is provided complementary information on the
tread wear pattern. Sidewall profile determination
enables identification of other tyre condition
factors. Tread depth and sidewall profile are also
determined by laser or other radiation line image
displacement techniques and a mountinq system is
provided for the apparatus enabling determinations
to be made without the use of a roller bed. Proper
positional alignment of the wheel to the apparatus
is determined by means of a reference datum derived
from reflected radiation within the apparatus.

Abstract: A structure and method are disclosed which allow
for a tighter control of the temperature across a wafer
substrate. In accordance with the present invention, a
wafer (16) to be processed is heated to a constant and
uniform temperature by an RF induction coil (18,20) including a
plurality of heating zones each of which being shunted
by an associated capacitor tuned to a specific
frequency. By adjusting the time during which current
of a particular frequency is provided to the induction
coil, current flow within, and thus the heat generated
in, each of the zones may be independently controlled.
Since the heat generated in the susceptor quickly
changes in response to changes in current flow therein,
both deviations of the wafer temperature from the
processing temperature and temperature gradients across
the surface of the wafer may be quickly corrected.
This superior thermal response results in the present
invention maintaining a wafer at a uniform temperature
during heating and cooling with increased accuracy and
precision.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé dans lequel des listes de canaux banalisés attribués (BA) d'un réseau cellulaire sont modifiées pour permettre à des terminaux mobiles (12) dans le réseau (10) de mesurer des interférences de liaisons descendantes à des fréquences prédéterminées de canal banalisé. Lesdites mesures peuvent être opérées dans toutes les cellules où les terminaux mobiles (12) sont situés, puis transmises en retour à la station de base (20). La station de base (20) cartographie les mesures transmises aux cellules correspondantes et utilise cette cartographie pour produire une matrice d'interdépendance cellule à cellule. Dans la forme de réalisation préférée, la matrice décrit la différence d'affaiblissement sur le trajet entre les cellules. On peut utiliser cette information concernant l'affaiblissement sur le trajet pour établir des rapports porteuse-interférence ou porteuse-cellule adjacente (ou des combinaisons de ces rapports) entre les cellules, et donc, pour évaluer une interférence des liaisons descendantes dans les fréquences attribuées auxdites cellules. On peut ainsi prendre en compte l'interférence des liaisons descendantes dans le réseau au moment de choisir de nouvelles fréquences pour chaque cellule, ce qui permet d'améliorer la qualité de l'ensemble du réseau (en ce qui concerne le rapport porteuse-interférence).

Abstract: In an apparatus for intermittently receiving a
broadcasting signal at a reception timing which appears
by a predetermined intermittent reception cycle and is
determined by using a clock generator (5) for generating
a clock signal of a clock frequency liable to vary due to
an environment temperature, a first section (309)
determines a maximum count by multiplying the
predetermined intermittent reception cycle by the clock
frequency at a particular time instant. Given the
maximum count at the particular time instant, a second
section (308) repeatedly carries out a counting operation
of counting up a count to the maximum count in response
to the clock signal to produce, when the count is equal
to the maximum count, a coincidence signal specifying the
reception timing. A third section (310) is for measuring
the temperature at the particular time instant as a
measured temperature to determine a monitor temperature
zone corresponding to the measured temperature and for
monitoring, as a subsequent measured temperature, the
environment temperature after the particular time instant
to produce a correction instruction signal when the
subsequent measured temperature is out of the monitor
temperature zone. At a correction time instant when the
third section (310) produces the correction instruction
signal, the first section (309) determines a corrected
maximum count and give the corrected maximum count to the
second section (308).

Abstract: A cooling structure is provided for a multichip module on which
integrated circuit devices (i.e., LSI devices) having heat-radiation surfaces
are mounted, wherein there are provided a heat sink, thermal conduction
blocks and thermal compounds. Recess portions are formed at a surface of
the heat sink in connection with the integrated circuit devices of the
multichip module. Low melting point metal material such as solder is
supplied to interiors of the recess portions of the heat sink. The thermal
conduction blocks are partially inserted into the interiors of the recess
portions under the condition where the low melting point metal material is
heated and melted, so that the thermal conduction blocks temporarily float
in the melted material. To avoid heat transfer toward the integrated
circuit devices, a heat insulating sheet is provided on the thermal
conduction blocks. Then, the low melting point metal material is solidified,
so the heat insulating sheet is removed. The thermal compounds are
placed on the thermal conduction blocks. Thus, the integrated circuit
devices and the thermal conduction blocks are connected together by means
of the thermal compounds. Because of temporary floating of the thermal
conduction blocks in the melted material, it is possible to absorb dispersion
in heights and slopes of the heat-radiation surfaces of the integrated circuit
devices.

Abstract: A process and system are disclosed for generating a credit by means of a prepaid voucher, as well as the voucher used therefor. A client generates a credit with a service provider in that he transmits to the service provider a secret character string stored on the prepaid voucher. Every time the client requests a service from the service provider, the value of the service is debited from his credit. In order to achieve the highest possible security standard, the secret character string stored on the prepaid voucher contains a secret access code which is stored nowhere else. The secret access code is generated by the emitter of the prepaid vouchers from a data set and a number associated with said data set, preferably a random number. The secret access code is stored together with the random number as a character string on the prepaid voucher and protected by appropriate measures against illicit access. The secret access code is destroyed as soon as it is stored on the prepaid voucher. The random number and the data set are transmitted to the service provider, who stores them in a data bank so that the corresponding data set may be accessed by means of the random number.
