Abstract: A magnetic resonance blood flow imaging method employs a field-echo technique and a gapless multi-slice acquisition technique in which a selective excitation pulse with a flip angle of less than 90 degrees is utilized and a pulse repetition time is set shorter than usual. Imaging data are acquired from multiple slices of a subject under examination while the multiple slices are shifted in sequence in position. A cross-sectional image is reconstructed for each of the multiple slices. Images obtained by performing subtractions on plural images for the same slice are gathered to thereby produce an image of blood vessels of the subject under examination which contain at least two blood vessels which run substantially in parallel and are opposite to each other in the direction of blood flow therein.

Abstract: An apparatus for controlling a variable displacement type hydraulic pump including an engine as a driving power source is disclosed. 
     This controlling apparatus comprises means (5) for detecting the number of revolutions of the engine, means (6) for detecting a pressure of hydraulic oil delivered from the hydraulic pump, means (12) for setting with reference to the number of revolutions of the engine a pump absorption torque characteristic which monotonously decreases in relation to the number of revolutions of the engine, means (7) for looking for an inclination angle of a swash plate in the pump with reference to the pump absorption torque characteristic and the pressure of hydraulic oil delivered from the pump, means (8) for controlling the swash plate in the pump so as to assure the inclination angle of the swash plate, and means (7,9,10) for reducing the number of revolutions of the engine under a condition that an absorption torque absorbed by the hydraulic pump does not exceed an allowable torque of the engine. 
     When the controlling apparatus is employed, the number of revolutions of the engine can be reduced as far as possible whereby a fuel consumption cost can be reduced correspondingly. Further, since the inclination angle of the swash plate in the pump can be increased as far as possible, an operational efficiency of the pump can be increased.

Abstract: An automated interrupt driven system which employs a circular buffer is used to sort materials based on differing electromagnetic radiation absorption and penetration characteristics. The system has a conveyor and a source of electromagnetic radiation which radiates materials travelling along the conveyor. A controller samples detector outputs at various times to evaluate the absorption and penetration characteristics of the materials to be sorted, based on a plurality of samples. Portions of the materials are ignored to obtain accurate readings from the detectors. Based on the detected penetration and absorption characteristics, the controller activates ejection mechanisms causing materials of different compositions to be deposited into different bins. The controller executes interrupts to cause detection, ejection, testing, and system history maintenance at required times. The circular buffer contains indices which point to various locations which are programmed in memory to trigger and perform specific events. The location of the indices in the circular buffer is used to control event timing, such as activating and deactivating the ejection mechanisms. This configuration allows several events to be executed simultaneously by moving to the next location in the circular buffer while the event indicated by the index in the previous location continues in progress.

Abstract: A service network has several computer systems connected together. A computer system can either be a "Service Requestor" (SR) (110), a "Service Provider" (SP) (150), or a hybrid of the two, a "Service Provider/Requestor" (SP/R) (130). The computer systems in the service network have the capability to perform or request problem prevention. A SP (or SP/R acting as a SP) can check to see if it has any solutions to problems that one or more of the SRs (or SP/R acting as an SR) it supports has but has not discovered or reported yet. If so, it can distribute solution information, accompanied by one or more software components, microcode components, hardware parts order, and/or textual instructions, to the SRs. In addition, a SR (or SP/R acting as an SR) can request any known fixes to problems for a list of supported components from an SP (or SP/R acting as an SP). The SP sends any fixes to problems associated with the list of supported components to the requesting SR.

Abstract: At many places it is desirable to use watertight or flushproof apparatus or indicator cabinets, but is it difficult or expensive to manufacture the cabinets in such a manner that e.g. a component carrying front plate is removably mounted over an access opening in a both hygienic and completely sealed manner. According to the invention this problem is solved by using for the mounting of the front plate (4) a known glass pane mounting system including a roundgoing sealing strip (12,14) arranged between the outer edge of the front plate and the adjacent edge of the opening in the cabinet wall (2). The front plate can be dismounted by drawing out a filler cleat (14) in the sealing strip, and it is reasonably easy to remount. The sealing strip is made of electrically conductive material for forming a screen over the slit between the joined plate portions (2 and 4). Also in other respects the cabinet is particularly adapted so as to be both flushtight and well electrically screened.

Abstract: Compression of signals is achieved through a simple decision of whether or not to encode certain frequency bands ; not how well to encode all of the frequency bands. Based on the input signal and on a preselected perceptual model, a "just noticeable difference" (jnd) noise spectrum is computed. This spectrum is applied to a selector where it is used in the decision to select a chosen number of frequency bands of the input signal. The bands selected are the bands with the greatest energy relative to the jnd energy in the same band. Each of the selected bands is encoded and transmitted to the receiver. Both analog and digital realizations are presented.

Abstract: A system and method for calibrating testers 200. A reference timing signal 213 and an internal timing signal 215 used in tester 200 calibration are generated within a tester 200. A first calibration is performed wherein test module channel characteristics are measured and recorded, and an adjustment value is determined to correct the time placement of the internal timing signal 215. Driver 222 and receiver 223 delays are adjusted based on the characteristics measured in this first calibration, and the internal timing signal 215 is adjusted as well. A second calibration is performed wherein temporal relationships between the adjusted internal timing signal 215 and signals at the test module channel mint pins 112 are determined. Driver 222 and receiver 223 delays are adjusted based on the results of this calibration. An optional calibration is performed wherein temporal relationship between the adjusted internal timing signal 215 and signals at the board-interface end of a test fixture 106 are measured. Using these measurements and the measurements obtained in the second calibration, a test fixture 106 characterization is performed and recorded. Delays of the drivers 222 and receivers 223 are again adjusted to account for the fixture characteristics. Additional calibration methods provided by the present invention include a manual multi-module calibration to keep test module channels aligned when a new module is designated as the master module, and a manual synchronization-to-clock calibration to deskew drivers 222 and receivers 223 relative to an external clock supplied by the device under test.

Abstract: An optical fiber duplex connector assembly wherein two individual optical fiber connectors are positioned and retained within a common housing, such that relative freedom of movement between the two connectors within the common housing facilitates positioning of the retained two connectors within a suitable receiving common housing (e.g., shroud). Such movement accomodates for manufacturing tolerances within the housing and/or connectors while still assuring successful insertion. A housing, having two chambers (one for each connector) and a cover assures the defined movable connector positioning while also providing effective retention. A boot may be attached to the housing to accomodate for severe bends and turns of the optical fiber cable, without loss of attenuation.
