Abstract: An optical point-to-multipoint connection arrangement comprises a number of ONUs
connected via an optical distribution network (ODN) to an OLT containing a main CTF (CTF A )
and one or more redundant CTFs (CTF R ). The main CTF (CTF A ) carries out ranging on at least
one of the ONUs (ONU A ), then CTF R  requests ONU A  to transmit at a given time a signal burst
which it expects to receive, taking ranging into account, at a time t 0 , but receives instead at a
time t 0 +δ, δ being positive or negative. CTF R  then alters its own time-reference in the same
direction as the δ, i.e. where δ is positive, delaying its time-reference by that amount and where
δ is negative, advancing its time-reference by the same amount. The result is that, when
operation is switched from the main to the redundant path, a major interruption in service is
avoided.

Abstract: An application-independent language module for language-independent
applications responds to a request from an application
identifying a concept that is generic to a plurality of languages and the
language that the concept is to be expressed in, by generating and
returning an expression of the identified concept in the identified language
for the application to communicate. The language module is implemented
in object-orientated programming form and includes instances of the
following foundation class objects that are provided by an infrastructure
for language module development: a concept object for defining the
generic concepts in a language-independent manner and pointing to
concept definitions each defining the corresponding concept in a different
language, a concept definition object for defining the concepts in
language-dependent manner and pointing to parsers each for expressing
a part of an expression of the concept in the language of the concept
definition and associating any variables that are involved in the concept
with parsers, and a parser object for expressing parts of the concept
expressions and values of any associated variables in the languages of
the concept definitions. Variables are defined at the concept level. Also
included are foundation classes for languages, variables, and data types.
The development infrastructure further includes an application program
interface (API) for creating, modifying, and deleting class instances in a
database compilable into the language module repository, and a database
of media fragments for forming communicable versions of the concepts.

Abstract: A routing technique for improving device reliability by
selectively depopulating solder balls (12) (and their respective
solder ball pads (34), vias (32) and traces or lines (30)) from
a conventional foot print of a ball grid array (BGA) package,
and a BGA package so modified. The routing technique uses the
gap resulting from the depopulated solder balls as additional
space for routing traces or lines from solder ball pads to an
exterior surface of a substrate (14) upon which a semiconductor
die (20) is mounted. An advantage of the present invention is
that it permits the retention of an optimum via diameter while
increasing the number of solder balls on ever shrinking
packages, thereby increasing device reliability.

Les doses de gaz marqueur envoyées pendant le nombre sélectionné de séquences de respirations sont additionnées, de sorte que, pendant au moins deux séquences de respiration du nombre sélectionné, les totaux cumulés des doses de gaz marqueur envoyées dans la séquence donnée et toutes les séquences antérieures (ΣVin), soient produits. La quantité de gaz marqueur exhalée dans le nombre de séquences de respiration est déterminée. Les doses de gaz marqueur exhalées pendant le nombre sélectionné de séquences de respiration sont additionnées de sorte que, pour lesdites séquences de respiration au moins au nombre de deux du nombre sélectionné, le total cumulé des doses de gaz marqueur éliminées dans ladite séquence de respiration et dans toutes les séquences précédentes (ΣVout) soit produit. La concentration de gaz marqueur dans les poumons du sujet (FET) est déterminée pour lesdites séquences de respiration au nombre d'au moins deux. Au moyen des doses (ΣVin), (ΣVout), et (FET) en tant que variables mesurées, au moins deux ensembles de données de valeur sont formés, dans lesquels les quantités sont mises en relation par des coefficients de régression, de sorte que le produit de la concentration de gaz indicateur (FET) et un coefficient de régression comprenant la capacité résiduelle fonctionnelle (FRC) plus le produit du total cumulé du gaz marqueur exhalé (Σout) et un coefficient de régression K soit égal au total cumulé de gaz marqueur fourni (ΣVin). L'analyse de régression multidimensionnelle est assurée au moyen d'ensembles de données pour la production de valeurs pour K et FRC, adaptées auxdits ensembles de données. La valeur de FRC ainsi obtenue correspond à la détermination de la capacité résiduelle fonctionnelle.

Abstract: The invention relates to power production and electric communication
and is useful in identifying the produced, transmitted and consumed
electricity, and detecting faults in a cable. The object of the invention is to
provide a cable which ensures a more reliable determination of the section of
the electrical circuit or the power transmission line over which electricity is
supplied from the source to the consumer in the electrical power system, as
well as detection of faults in the cable, including line-to-earth faults. The
object is attained by a cable comprising, in cross-section, at least two sub-regions
of materials, one of the materials being a conductor and the other
being a dielectric. At least a part of the section boundary line and/or at least
a part of the conductor and/or dielectric sub-regions is in the shape of a
fragment of an oblique conical section of a right circular cone. This provides
asymmetrical arrangement of strands across the cable cross-section relative
to the screen or the longitudinal axis of the cable, and enhances the
difference between electrical frequency characteristics of the cables owing
to individual geometric parameters of the cable section.

Abstract: A self sealing vessel assembly for high pressure microwave assisted chemistry is disclosed. The vessel assembly includes a polymeric cylinder (12) and a circular polymeric cap (13) for the cylinder, the cylinder being closed at one end and open at the other end to receive the cap. The open end of the cylinder has a lip that is bevelled inwardly from the open end, and the circular polymeric cap (13) has a bevelled lower edge that engages the bevelled lip when the cap (13) is placed upon the polymeric cylinder (12). For high pressure applications, a choke cylinder depends from the bevelled lower edge of the cap, and has an outer diameter substantially the same as the inner diameter of the polymeric cylinder (12) so that the choke provides a self sealing mechanism for the cylinder as pressure from a chemical reaction increases within the cylinder. A supporting frame (14) extends along the cylinder (12) and across the lid (13) and across the closed end of the cylinder, and prevents the lid from being displaced from the cylinder when pressure is generated inside of the vessel. <IMAGE>
