Abstract: The configuration of a managed system (10; 15) can be viewed or
changed over the Internet using an HTML document to list and display the
managed systems, together with icons that represent the state of the managed
systems. Using embedded commands or identifiers within template documents, a
program can be created to automatically acquire needed system information. In
another embodiment, an HTML CGI document containing desired system
information and a reference link back to the system at the manufacturer's
selected site is created, allowing the manufacturer's system to retrieve this
system information automatically. The system information is then analyzed
against a list of currently valid system configurations to detect potential
problems. In turn, if potential problems are detected, the information is sent
back to the managed system automatically. By using "active controls" or Java
scripts, the state of the managed systems can be dynamically updated by
changing the colour of associated icons or the displayed text.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for efficiently enabling an alternate return address
associated with a function call to essentially be stored such that the alternate return
address may be readily accessed are disclosed. According to one aspect of the present
invention, a method for enabling a return address associated with a function called by
a routine to be efficiently stored includes calling the function from within the routine
while the routine is executing. In general, the function is external to the routine. The
function, once called, begins executing. Eventually, the function returns to the
routine. Specifically, the function returns to a location in the routine that is identified
by an expected return point, or normal return address. The instruction in the routine
that corresponds to the expected return point is a dummy instruction that executes
with a low computational overhead but does not affect program execution. When the
called function is to return to an alternate return point, it obtains the address by
reading data embedded in the dummy instruction.

Abstract: An automatic power turn-on circuit for a battery-powered measurement instrument.
Instrument power is normally off, and when the instrument is connected to a voltage to
be measured, the voltage that is sensed activates an electronic switch that in turn
connects an internal battery to the processing and display circuits of the instrument. The
voltage sense circuitry includes circuits for sensing either a positive or a negative voltage,
and basing a driver transistor into conduction. The driver transistor in turn activates the
switch to connect the battery voltage to a power supply output node. An RC network
holds the switch in the "on" position for a short period of time after the voltage to be
measured is removed from the inputs of the instrument.

Abstract: To facilitate saving of image data and movement of an
image, an original image is displayed on a screen of a
display device. An area to be extracted (cut out) from the
displayed original image is designated by a mouse. Image
data of an area other than the designated area is changed to
image data representing a specified color. Pixel image data
and coordinate data representing pixels in the (designated)
area excluding the area of the specified color are produced.
Pairs of the pixel image data and the coordinate data is
stored. Alternatively, a set of pixel image data and a set
of coordinate data are respectively compressed, and
compressed pixel image data and the compressed coordinate
data are stored. To perform proper color correction
(conversion) even when a user image is inlaid in a template
image to produce a composite image, a position, in which
the user image is to be inlaid, on the template image is
defined by mask information. The template image and the
mask information are correlated with each other. The user
image is inlaid in the position, on the template image,
defined by the mask information, to produce a composite
image. Data representing the produced composite image and 
the corresponding mask information are transmitted from a
client computer to an image synthesizer. In the image
synthesizer, the mask information is referred to, to
separate the template image and the user image from the
composite image. The template image and the user image,
which have been separated from each other, are individually
subjected to color correction in the image synthesizer. The
template image and the user image, which have been
respectively subjected to the color correction, are
resynthesized.

Abstract: A dielectric filter includes a case (15), a substrate
(6) having microstrip lines formed thereon, and a dielectric
plate (3) having non-electrode parts (4a, 4b, 4c) serving as
dielectric resonators. The case (15) includes a supporting
part for supporting the lower surface of the dielectric
plate (3) and includes a side wall surrounding the side
faces of the dielectric plate (3) wherein the supporting
part and the side wall are formed in an integral fashion.
The substrate (6) is bonded to the case (15) and the
dielectric plate (3) is mounted on the supporting part of
the case. A metal cover (8) is then placed on the case (15)
such that the opening of the case is closed with the cover. 
     In the dielectric filter constructed in the above-described
manner, warping of the case (15) for supporting the
dielectric plate (3) is suppressed and thus the stress
exerted on the dielectric plate (3) is reduced. As a
result, the dielectric plate (3) is prevented from being
separated from the case (15) and also prevented from having
a crack. The above-described structure also allows the
dielectric filter to be formed into a small size. The
invention also provides a duplexer and a communication 
device using such a dielectric filter.

Abstract: A method of designing an active shield for substantially zeroing an electro-magnetic field
on one side of a predetermined boundary is provided. It includes defining a geometry for
a primary structure which, in the case of zeroing a magnetic field, carries a first current
distribution on its surface. A geometry is also defined for a secondary structure which,
again in the case of zeroing a magnetic field, carries a second current distribution on its
surface. In the case of zeroing an electric field, the current distributions are replaced with
charge distributions. A total magnetic or electric field resulting from a combination of the
first and second current or charge distributions respectively is constrained such that normal
components (in the magnetic field case) or tangential components (in the electric field case)
thereof vanish at the surface of one of the primary and secondary structures. The first
current or charge distribution is constrained to the surface of the primary structure, and the
second current or charge distribution is constrained to the surface of the secondary structure.
The first and second current or charge distributions are then calculated concurrently while
observing the constraints such that a predetermined magnetic or electric field is achieved
in a first region and a magnetic or electric field on one side of a predetermined boundary
is substantially zeroed.

such as non-simultaneous state latching. This error is corrected using a nonlinear
cellular neural network preferably such that the real level of the phenomenon
compared by means of the comparing elements (IC1, IC2, IC3, IC4) is estimated by
estimating the states corresponding to correct reading of the comparing elements
(IC1, IC2, IC3, IC4) read temporally or otherwise erroneously.
