Abstract: A digital color scanner capable of high color quality includes a light source (1), a photosensor (11), a first color filter (13R), a second color filter (13G), a third color filter (13B), and a fourth color filter (21). The first, second, and third color filters are positioned in an optical path between the light source (1) and the photosensor (11) so as to enable the photosensor to produce a first, second, and third set of color image data during a first calibration scan. The fourth color filter (21) is moved into and out of the optical path between the light source (1) and the photosensor (11) so as to enable the photosensor to produce a fourth, fifth, and sixth set of color image data during a second calibration scan. A circuit produces a set of color correction values from the first, second, third, fourth, fifth, and sixth sets of color image data.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un scanner à balle bondissante constitué d'une balle entraînée dans un mouvement va-et-vient, de façon à réfléchir la lumière porteuse de l'image sur un support photosensible. La lumière peut être dictée par un ordinateur et, dans ce cas, le support photosensible est un film destiné à une sortie imprimée, ou bien elle peut être réfléchie par un objet portant une image imprimée, et le support est alors un dispositif à couplage de charge où l'image est lue par un ordinateur. Le scanner à balle bondissante comporte une balle entraînée dans un mouvement de va-et-vient par des forces électromagnétiques agissant sur elle. Le mouvement est sensiblement linéaire dans chaque direction, ce qui facilite le calcul de la position de la balle et donc la connaissance de la position des pixels sur le support photosensible.

Abstract: L'invention appartient au domaine de la régulation de l'écoulement carbonique dans le métabolisme de la cellule. On a trouvé que l'induction d'un changement dans la disponibilité intracellulaire du saccharide tréhalose-6-phosphate (T-6-P) induisait in vivo des modifications dans le développement et/ou la composition de cellules, de tissu et d'organes. On peut induire ces changements par introduction ou par inhibition de l'enzyme tréhalose phosphate synthase (TPS), laquelle peut former T-6-P et la tréhalose phosphate phosphatase (TPP), laquelle dégrade T-6-P en tréhalose. L'écoulement carbonique par glycolyse peut être stimulé par une diminution du taux intracellulaire de T-6-P.

Abstract: For the continuous hydrolysis of organochlorosilane, a
reaction system comprising at least three stages of
hydrolysis is used. Each stage includes a reactor and a
phase separator wherein hydrolysis is effected to form a
hydrolysis mixture which is separated into a hydrolyzate and
a hydrogen chloride-containing aqueous medium. The
separated aqueous medium is circulated to the reactor. The
hydrolyzate is conveyed to the reactor of the subsequent
stage. The organochlorosilane is fed into the first stage
reactor, the aqueous medium containing an amount of water
corresponding to the consumption in one stage is fed into
one stage reactor from the subsequent stage, and an amount
of water corresponding to the consumption in the overall
reaction system is fed in the last stage. Then the entire
amount of hydrogen chloride generated in multiple stages of
hydrolysis is recovered as anhydrous hydrogen chloride from
the first stage. The entire amount of the aqueous media
separated in the phase separators is retained in the

temporarily, a transmitting buffer unit (50) for storing
temporarily the AV data to be transmitted, a primary
storage unit (60) for storing AV data and a secondary
storage unit (70) for storing AV data, all connected to
each other by means of a subnetwork (59). A server control
unit (90) for controlling the respective units is also
connected to the subnetwork (59). Since these units are
connected by means of the subnetwork, there is little
restriction on the location of installation of the units.
The capacities of the primary and secondary storage units
(60,70) and the transmitting buffer unit (50) are selected
so that they become larger in the order of the secondary
storage unit (70), the primary storage unit (60) and the
transmitting buffer unit (50). As a result, the storage
units (60,70) and the transmitting buffer unit (50) are

to construct an AV server system having large capacity and
good responsivity with good cost balance.
