Abstract: In order to correctly detect the width of wiring pattern on a printed board, a multiple train operator is applied to image data. The multiple train operator consists of arms each having three unit arms. The binary data obtained by applying the multiple train operator to the image data is converted into a single horizontal arm and a single vertical arm. The combination of the horizontal and vertical arms corresponds to a single cross operator. The conversion into the single cross operator form is conducted through a logical operation on the binary data obtained by the multiple train operator, so that quantization errors are compensated and fine pattern defects can be detected. As a result, the width of the wiring pattern etc. are correctly obtained.

Abstract: A supervisory node (2) and non-supervisory nodes (3 through 9) are connected in a loop by an optical transmission path (1). Over the loop (1) are transferred optical signals having wavelengths of λl through λn. An access right control packet 10 is transferred in the loop at the optical wavelength of λl. A node performing data transmission by line exchange writes its own node address (SA), the destination address (DA) and transmit reservation in the header of the access right control packet 10, and sends the packet out on the optical transmission path. The supervisory node 2 having received this access right control packet writes the wavelength to be used (λi) into the used wavelength field (UWL), and notifies the transmit and receive nodes of the choice of the wavelength. The transmit node sends data to the receive node by line exchange at the designated wavelength λi.

Abstract: A control apparatus controls a system (100) such as a rolling mill or sewage plant on the basis of the data received from that system. Firstly, the data is analysed (103) to derive a characteristic of the data, and then that characteristic is investigated (104) to determine a problem of the system (assuming such a problem exists). Then, that problem is analysed automatically (105,106) to derive one or more strategies to resolve that problem, and then the system (100) may be controlled (214) on the basis of that strategy. The analysis may thus be operated automatically, allowing a greater degree of flexibility and responsiveness of automatic control. A model of the system may be provided in a switchable memory (212) for testing the strategy or strategies derived before applying the optimum strategy to the system (100).

Abstract: After a copolymer of ethylene and an alpha-olefin of at least 3 carbon atoms (e.g. propylene) and optionally also a non-conjugated diene has been prepared with the use of a vanadium catalyst and an organoaluminum (e.g. alkyl) compound, the residual catalyst is removed from the polymerisation reaction mixture in a hydrocarbon solvent (e.g. hexane) by
     (a) when the catalyst also includes a halogenated ester compound, mixing the reaction mixture with stirring into an aqueous solution of an alkaline compound (e.g. hydroxide of Li, Na or K) in an amount to give an aqueous phase pH of at least 10; or   (b) the halogenated ester compound being optional, oxidising the reaction mixture with an oxidising agent (preferably O₂), e.g. to convert the vanadium to pentavalent V, in an aqueous alkaline solution as in (a).   
     The organic phase is then separated and washed with water and the polymer is recovered therefrom. 
     The catalyst residue is thus reduced to very low levels, so that the copolymer is not affected thereby.
