Abstract: A video game apparatus includes an external ROM. This external ROM is
previously memorized with player object data, basic shadow object data and light object
data. A direction in which a shadow is thrown is determined according to the player
object data and the light object data, to thereby determine a length of each leg of the
player object. Based on the length of the leg and the height of the light, a length of the
shadow is determined. Based on the height of each leg, a depth of the shadow is
determined. A shape of a displaying shadow object is determined from a state of a ground
object to which the shadow is thrown.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method and a device for a fast performance of network operations via a network with high delay times by means of a module for processing system calls of an application layer and for initiating network operations of a network layer. In said module a differentiation between a blocking and a non-blocking implementation mode is made. A non-blocking execution mode means that the considered system call returns a logical value as result to the application, which signalizes whether the system call was successfully executed. In this case it is provided by the invention to directly send a logical value to the application when a non-blocking system call is called, without having waited for the actual result of the operation executed in the communicating partner instance and corresponding to the system call. The handling of the results of the actually executed operations takes place at a later time.

Abstract: The dirty wash effluents (1-8) from each product are combined and homogenized (39) for multi-stage biological purification treatment. Preferred Features: Supply to treatment is continuous. Chemical-physical treatment precedes multistage biological treatment. Multistage settlement is followed by after-purification. The effluents are united in day equalization tanks, serving also as homogenization tanks, from which they are supplied continuously to biological treatment. Film-biological treatment, preferably as two-stage fixed bed processes, is employed. For sludge de-watering, plate separators (42, 49, 53) are used. Membrane filtration separates biomass, removing solids, bacteria and some viruses. For filtration, e.g. multilayer filters, fabric filters or ceramic filters are used. COD elimination during bio-treatment amounts to 90% or more. Before final outfall, the cleaned water is filtered, preferably in an activated carbon filter. Up to 90% is recycled. For biological purification, the activated sludge process is used. Treatment of a variety of washing effluent types is detailed, specifying conventional additives and processes, with quantified process parameters.

Abstract: The invention concerns a travelling wave tube designed to operate as amplifier in several frequency bands (B1, Bi, Bn), comprising a microwave frequency line (8) carrying electrons and wherein a signal is amplified. The microwave frequency line successively comprises an input section (h) separated by a series of disjointed output sections (h1, hi, hn), each output section operating in one of the tube operating frequency bands. The input section (h), connected at one end (ee) to input means (E) for the signal to be amplified, operates in a frequency band (B) including the tube operating frequency bands (B1, Bi, Bn) and is designed to preamplify the signal to be amplified. The series of output sections (h1, hi, hn) receives the preamplified signal. Each of the output sections is designed to amplify it if the signal is at a frequency included in its operating frequency band, and to allow it to pass almost without intervening, if it is at a frequency outside its operating frequency band. Each of the output sections (h1, hi, hn) is connected at one output end (es) to output means (h1, hi, hn) for the preamplified signal which it has amplified. The invention is applicable to travelling wave tubes with reduced length capable high power functioning.
