Abstract: A ferrule (1a, 1b, 1c, 1d) used for an optical fiber connector and a method for efficient production thereof are disclosed. The ferrule comprises a through-hole (2a, 2b, 2c, 2d) formed linearly along the axial line thereof and having a part (3a, 3b, 3c, 3d) of a small diameter for the insertion of an optical fiber (11), a part (5a, 5b, 5c, 5d) of a large diameter for the insertion of a sheathed optical fiber (10), and a diametrically tapered part (4a, 4b, 4c, 4d) intervening between the small diameter part and the large diameter part and diverging from the small diameter part to the large diameter part. The through-hole (2a, 2b, 2c, 2d) has a length of not less than 1 mm for the small diameter part (3a, 3b, 3c, 3d) and a length of less than 6 mm for the total of the small diameter part and the diametrically tapered part (4a, 4b, 4c, 4d). In the production of this ferrule (1a, 1b, 1c, 1d), the grinding work for the impartation of an outside diameter is implemented by causing the opposite end parts of a ceramic blank (31) having an engaging part (36, 6a, 6b, 6c) adapted to receive a rotational driving force to be rotatably supported with a double center cylindrical grinder (40) and rotating a live center (42) of the grinder having formed thereon a fitting part (44) for union with the engaging part thereby enabling the ceramic blank engaged with the live center to rotate and effecting the grinding work.

Abstract: A control system for a single-valve controlled medical ventilator adaptively invokes separate flow delivery or flow exhaust control functions in response to the sensed dynamic state of the ventilator without any dependence on measured patient parameters. The control system selects either the flow delivery control system or flow exhaust control system based on a determination of the mode in which the ventilator is operating. The determination is made using a sensed ventilator operational parameter, such as the ratio of manifold pressure to flow output, to select the appropriate control function. A hysteresis routine is provided to prevent "hair triggering" between the flow delivery and flow exhaust control systems.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for more accurately
determining the position of a moving object by using an
azimuth detector distinct from an angular speed detector
to correct the gain error and the offset error of the
angular speed detector. The position of the moving body
is determined using the offset error- and gain error-corrected
angular speed. The correction of the offset
error includes checking the azimuth and movement of the
moving object for three predetermined periods of time;
then checking whether the moving object was moving in a
straight line each of the three predetermined periods of
time. If the object was moving in a straight line each of
the three predetermined periods of time, then an offset
error correction value is computed using data from the
second of the three predetermined periods of time. The
correction of the gain error includes determining the
movement of the moving object as straight; then
determining the movement of the moving object as a turn;
then determining the movement of the moving object as
straight again. If the turn was a left turn, a left gain
error correction value is computed. similarly, if the
turn was a right turn, a right gain error correction value
is computed.

Abstract: The invention provides a method which achieves
reduction of virtual channel connection delay time
involved in signaling without using virtual channels as
permanent virtual channels (PVC) and without performing
wasteful allocation of a signal bandwidth and of a
signaling system. In the signaling system, when transmission
terminal 100 transmits a packet, packet transmission
control section 110 delivers a request for
transmission of a packet to signaling transmission
section 101. Upon reception of the request, signaling
transmission section 101 searches VC and signal bandwidth
table 102 and sends out, when a virtual channel is
registered and a necessary signal bandwidth is held, a
packet using the virtual channel, but requests, when a
virtual channel is registered but the signal bandwidth
is short, a packet switching system only for a signal
bandwidth and then sends out the packet by way of the
virtual channel. On the other hand, when no virtual
channel is registered, signaling transmission section
101 delivers signaling to request transmission of the
next packet to the packet switching system. Table 102
includes, for each destination address, virtual channel
timer 112 for release the virtual channel applied thereto
after the virtual channel is held for a predetermined
period of time after it becomes free, and bandwidth
timer 111 for reducing the signal bandwidth after each 
predetermined interval of time after the virtual channel
becomes free. Each end of a packet transmission, the
two timers are reset to clock.

In the data transmitting system, a plurality of computers in
which an input operation is performed on a display by using
a pen-type input device are connected on a network. Upon
performing an input operation by the pen-type input device,
each computer checks a management table provided on the

registered. If it is found that the management information
is not registered, the name of the file and the shape of the
icon, which are indicated by the icon selected by the pen-type

is registered, it is obtained. When the pen-type input
device touches the display, a request is provided to the
computer indicated by the management information to transmit
