Title: Diagnosis and monitoring of lung cancer patients by measurement of NCA 50/90 in blood.
Inventor: ALLARD WILLIAM JEFFREY
IPC: G01N33/574
Filed: 1994-04-21
Abstract: A method for aiding in the diagnosis of, and monitoring the progression of, lung cancer in a patient by measuring the amount of NCA 50/90 in a blood sample, e.g., serum sample, obtained from the patient. Measurement in a single sample of an amount of NCA 50/90 significantly higher than the mean amount of NCA 50/90 in the normal population is an indication of lung cancer in the patient. The progression of lung cancer can also be monitored by performing a series of specific immunoassays over time to determine changes in the level of NCA 50/90 in blood samples. Increases in blood NCA 50/90 levels over time are indicative of a deteriorating condition whereas decreasing levels of blood NCA 50/90 over time indicate an improving condition.

Title: Method for detecting addressing error for an electrical device.
Inventor: BARTHEL HERBERT DIPL-ING
IPC: G06F11/16
Filed: 1994-04-26
Abstract: The electrical device consists of a central unit (1) and secondary units (2) which can be addressed from the central unit (1) by means of secondary-unit-specific addresses via a communication system (3). According to the invention, addressing errors which are caused by faulty secondary units (2) can be detected by the fact that   - an identification is transferred from the addressed secondary unit (2) to the central unit (1) at least in some of the accesses of the central unit (1) to one of the secondary units (2), - that the identification transferred to the central unit (1) is compared with a nominal identification, and - that addressing errors are detected when the identification transferred deviates from the nominal identification.   <IMAGE>

Abstract: A multiprocessor system includes a number of sub-processor systems,
each substantially identically constructed, and each comprising a central processing unit
(CPU), and at least one I/O device, interconnected by routing apparatus that also
interconnects the sub-processor systems. A CPU of any one of the sub-processor

CPUs (or from one CPU to another CPU) as message packets. 
     CPUs and I/O devices may write to, or read from, memory of a CPU of
the system. Memory protection is provided by an access validation method maintained
by each CPU in which CPUs and/or I/O devices are provided with a validation to
read/write memory of that CPU, without which memory access is denied.

Abstract: The sheet feeding device comprises a frame (5) with a fixed
receptacle (6) for the sheets and pick-up rollers (14) mounted on a first shaft
(15) which is pivotingly fitted on the frame (5) by means of a rocking support
device (20). A second shaft (21) is linked to a motor and bears, by means of
two pivotingly mounted support members (22), the first shaft (15) and the
rollers (14). Two pinions (24, 25) integral with the shafts (15, 21) and an
intermediate pinion (26) provided with a braking member (32) allow the
rollers (14) to be brought into rotation starting from the shaft (21).
Accordingly, the latter commands rotation of the entire support device (20)
and presses the rollers (14) against the uppermost sheet with a surface force
which increases when the resistance to movement of the uppermost sheet
increases. Extremely reliable paper feeding operation is achieved as a
result, with a simple construction method and at low cost.

Abstract: Apparatus and method for determining the lengths of a plurality of variable length encoded
data values included in a data stream within a single clock cycle. The apparatus includes
a shifter for receiving the data stream. The shifter is responsive to a shift control signal for
transmitting a subset of the plurality of variable length encoded data values. A first length
decoding mechanism is coupled to receive the subset of the plurality of encoded data
values. The first length decoding mechanism performs a first decoding operation to
determine the length of a first one of the encoded data values in the subset. A second
length decoding mechanism is also coupled to receive the subset of the plurality of encoded
data values. The second length decoding mechanism performs a second decoding operation
to individually determine the length of a second one of the encoded data values in the
subset. The second encoded data value immediately follows the first encoded data value
in the subset. The first and second decoding operations are performed simultaneously. A
combined length decoder is responsive to the lengths of the first and second encoded data
values for outputting a combined length of the first and second data values. A shift
controller forms the shift control signal in response to the combined length of the first and
second data values. The shift control signal identifies a position of a next encoded data
value within the shifter. The next encoded data value immediately follows the second
encoded data value. The shift controller transmits the shift control signal to the shifter.

Abstract: In an optical head for optical beacon, a prism 5 is
arranged immediately after light emitting elements 1 of an
optical head 10 in light radiating directions of the light
emitting elements 1, so that the paths along which light rays
travel immediately after the radiation can be curved by the
prism 5. As a result of this configuration, if the index of
refraction of a material of which the prism 5 is made and the
angle of a slope of the prism 5 are set to proper values, the
light rays can be injected from the prism 5 to an optical head
10 on the side of a light receiving element 2 in arbitrary
directions. Further, a surface 21 of a body 13 in which a
transmission window 14 is formed is so shaped as to be inclined
backward with respect to the travelling direction of an
automobile from an upper edge a to a lower edge b. An image of

a excluding the upper edge a. Other part of the body 13 than
