Patent EP-0314340-A3 (EP)
IPC: A61K8/11
Filed: 1988-10-12
Abstract: A device (2) provides liquid material for application 
to a surface. The device comprises in order at least a 
carrying substrate (4), frangible microcapsules (6)  containing the 
liquid to be applied, a raised area around the 
microcapsules of a structurally rigid material (8), and a

Title: Semiconductor memory
IPC: H01L27/108
Filed: 1989-04-19
Abstract: A semiconductor memory having dynamic memory 
cells includes a determining circuit (7, 8) for 
determining whether or not it is necessary to refresh the 
dynamic memory cells, and only when it is necessary, 
outputting a refresh execution signal in response to a 
refresh request signal from an external circuit, and a 
circuit (3) for executing a refresh operation in response 
to the refresh execution signal. Even if the refresh 
request signal is supplied, a refresh operation is not 
executed unless the determining circuit determines that 
the refresh operation is necessary, thus dispensing with 
unnecessary refresh operations. Preferably, the 
determining circuit (7, 8) includes a timer (7) which 
outputs a signal at every predetermined period. Only 
when the signal is output from the timer, is the refresh 
request signal from an external circuit accepted and the 
refresh execution signal output.

Title: Adaptive routing control method
IPC: H04Q3/66
Filed: 1989-11-15
Abstract: In a telecommunications network in which a plurality 
of switching nodes (N1 to N6) are interconnected via links 
(L12, L23) each composed of a plurality of trunks and are 
each connected to a network control center (NC) via a control 
signal link (C1 to C6), the network control center determines 
for each switching node a predetermined number of 
alternate routes for each first route on the basis of traffic 
data in the telecommmunciations network and supplies 
them as a set of available alternate routes to the switching 
node. The switching node assigns one or more of the 
available alternate routes in advance. The switching node 
responds to a call-connection request to try to connect the 
call to the first route, and when having failed in the 
call-connection, the switching node retries the call-connection 
through one of the assigned routes.

Title: Process for preparing pre-expanded particles of polyolefin resin
IPC: C08J9/18
Filed: 1989-12-23
Abstract: In a process for preparing pre-expanded 
particles of a polyolefin resin which comprises 
dispersing polyolefin resin particles in water in a 
pressure vessel, impregnating the particles with a 
volatile blowing agent, elevating the temperature of the 
mixture of the particles and water to a temperature close 
to the melting point of the resin particles under a 
pressure equal to or higher than a vapor pressure of the 
blowing agent and releasing the mixture into a low 
pressure zone, the improvement which comprises using a 
butane containing not less than 70 % by weight of 
isobutane. According to the present invention, the 
obtained pre-expanded particles are not fused together or 
adhered to each other, and are not shrinked. Also, since 
fluoro chloro carbon is not used as the blowing agent, 
environmental pollutions such that the ozon layer 
encompassing the earth is destroied by fluoro chloro 
carbon are not caused at all.

Title: Housing for electronic device
IPC: H05K5/00
Filed: 1989-01-24
Abstract: Many housings for electronic devices require to be 
carefully sealed, as well as incorporate heat sinks for 
the electronic devices. Careful sealing has required 
expensive machined housing joints and, because electronic 
devices may be misaligned to the substrate, rounded heat 
sinks have been used, giving restricted contact areas and 
hence limited cooling. The invention employs a thermally 
conducting flexible membrane capable of being urged into 
thermal contact with the electronic device for example an 
evacuation of the housing thereby permitting a simple 
hermetic seal as well as contact with the electronic 
device over a large area.

Title: Method and apparatus for the automatic determination of phonological rules as for a continuous speech recognition system
IPC: G10L15/06
Filed: 1990-02-27
Abstract: A continuous speech recognition system includes an 
automatic phonological rules generator which determines 
variations in the pronunciation of phonemes based on 
the context in which they occur. This phonological 
rules generator associates sequences of labels derived 
from vocalizations of a training text with respective 
phonemes inferred from the training text. These 
sequences are then annotated with their phoneme 
context from the training text and clustered into 
groups representing similar pronunciations of each 
phoneme. A decision tree is generated using the 
context information of the sequences to predict the 
clusters to which the sequences belong. The training 
data is processed by the decision tree to divide the 
sequences into leaf-groups representing similar 
pronunciations of each phoneme. The sequences in 
each leaf-group are clustered into sub-groups represent­
ing respectively different pronunciations of their 
corresponding phoneme in a give context. A Markov 
model is generated for each sub-group. The various 
Markov models of a leaf-group are combined into a 
single compound model by assigning common initial and 
final states to each model. The compound Markov 
models are used by a speech recognition system to 
analyze an unknown sequence of labels given its 
context.

Filed: 1990-09-04
Abstract: A system for refreshing and scrubbing data contained in a DRAM during each and every refresh cycle is disclosed. Briefly stated, a standard refresh address counter has its bit length extended with the result that the-extended bits are used as a column address which when used with a conventional row address during a refresh cycle are used to select memory locations which are refreshed and scrubbed while adjacent memory locations are refreshed only. The read/write enable lead is deactivated during the refresh cycle. The DRAM is in effect forced into performing a read operation with the result that data is refreshed and scrubbed contemporaneously as normally done during a read or write.
