Abstract: The surface data is stored in the first memory region. Corresponding data sets are generated and stored in the second memory region. Additional data sets are generated to represent partial objects at low accuracy. Simultaneously, a hierarchical data structure for representing a part of the surface at a given accuracy is stored in the second memory region. An arithmetic unit (2) calculates the minimum level of accuracy for the partial object and compares this level with that stored for each data set whose address is stored in the third memory region. Those pointer addresses of data sets whose accuracy is greater than, or equal to the minimum level, are copied into the forth memory region, and the remaining sets of addresses into the third region, deleting the previous set. The data sets addressed by the forth memory region are output to the display.

Abstract: The trap comprises a bottom tray (2) and a closed container (8) containing a liquid bait (10). A heat-sealed film (9) closes the container. A cover (1) is fixed to the bottom tray to form with it a single enclosure containing the closed container. Side walls join the cover and the bottom plate. The trap has several holes (6) enabling ants to access the enclosure interior. The tray bottom and the lid can be deformed by manual pressure causing them to curve in towards the enclosure. This deformation is sufficient to produce puncture of the closed liquid container. The bottom tray has several ribs (3,4) located such that the liquid spread on them can flow between them. The external rib (3) forms a continuous barrier round the closed pace.

Abstract: In a pocket of flexible sheet material comprising: a) a plurality of holes placed adjacent at least one edge of said pocket and adapted for releasable engagement with means capable of penetrating said holes, the main novel feature is b) that for each hole, a slit extends from said edge into the hole, each slit being rectilinear and opening tangentially into the hole concerned at the part of said hole lying most distant from said edge, the region adjacent said edge and in which said holes are formed being reinforced. With this arrangement, the pocket can be inserted into and removed from a loose-leaf ring binder without opening the rings by carrying out a simple procedure, at the same time ensuring that the pocket will not be pulled out inadvertingly, such as by weight of heavy documents in the pocket. It is also possible to use the pocket in a ring binder in which the rings are not adapted to be opened.
