Abstract: Designs for basecurves are disclosed which
are designed to promote adhesion of an excess polymer
HEMA ring to the basecurve during a demolding
operation such that the excess polymer HEMA ring is
removed along with the basecurve during the demolding
operation. The basecurve mold designs promote and
maintain adhesion of an excess polymer HEMA ring to
the basecurve in a process for molding cast contact
lenses in mold assemblies, each comprising a
frontcurve and a spaced basecurve, and wherein a
molded lens is formed therebetween. In one embodiment
an annular area of the basecurve mold adjacent to the
excess polymer HEMA ring is formed with laser
machining marks therein, formed by laser machining a
corresponding annular area in a master mold used to
cast the basecurve molds. In a second embodiment the
annular area of the basecurve mold is formed with
electric discharge machine marks therein, formed by
electric discharge machining a corresponding annular
area in a master mold used to cast the basecurve
molds. In further embodiments, the annular area of
the basecurve mold can be formed with projecting teeth
which project into the excess polymer HEMA ring, or
with an annular step which contacts the excess polymer
HEMA ring. Moreover, the annular step can include a
plurality of projecting teeth therearound, or can
define a spoked design or an edgecut design.

Abstract: To form a recess defining a channel region (11) in a SOI layer (3), a LOCOS oxide film is formed on a surface of the SOI layer (3) and then removed. Then, side walls (8) of CVD oxide is formed on side surfaces defining an opening of a LOCOS oxide restraining film (5, 6). Then, a gate oxide film (9) is formed on an exposed surface of the SOI layer inside the opening. Then, CVD polycrystalline silicon is formed on the whole wafer surface, and then etched back to form a gate electrode (10) of polycrystalline silicon inside the opening. At this time, a top surface of the gate electrode (10) is at a level lower than a top surface of the restraining film (5, 6). Next, the restraining film (5, 6) and the side walls (8) are removed and ion implantation into the SOI layer is performed using the gate electrode as a mask to thereby form a source region and a drain region. Then, side walls are formed on side surfaces of the gate electrode, and a silicide film is formed on the gate electrode and the source and drain regions. <IMAGE>   <IMAGE>   <IMAGE>   <IMAGE>   <IMAGE>   <IMAGE>   <IMAGE>   <IMAGE>

Inventor: WHITELEY CHRISTOPHER JAMES
IPC: B29C33/36
Filed: 1998-11-06
Abstract: A method of compression moulding of hot plastics material includes the
steps of extruding a charge of plastics material into one of a plurality of lower mould
halves (8) at a position remote from a press (1), transporting the lower mould half and
charge of plastics material to the press and connecting it to engagement means (9) on the
press which aligns the lower mould axially with a complementary upper mould (5) secured
for axial movement to the press such that the lower mould is restrained from horizontal
or vertical movement, pressing the upper and lower moulds together to form a moulding
from the charge, retracting the upper mould to expose the upper part of the moulding,
disengaging the lower mould from the engagement means and withdrawing it from the
press for subsequent cooling and removal of the moulding from the lower mould at a
position remote therefrom, charging a second lower mould (8) with a charge of plastics
material and introducing the second lower mould into the moulding press after the first
lower mould has been removed therefrom to produce another moulding. The method
therefore permits mouldable lower mould halves to be also used to transport the raw
charge of plastics material from the extruder to the press and thereafter the moulding from
the press to a cooling station until sufficiently cooled to be removed therefrom, thereby
maximising the use of the press and simplifying the handling of the plastics material before
and after moulding. To facilitate this objective the moulding press and lower mould
halves are modified to include cooperable engagement means preventing horizontal or 
vertical movement of each lower mould half relative to the upper mould half but by which
each lower mould half may be easily inserted or removed from the press before and after
moulding. In a further refinement the lower mould halves are made of a lightweight
material such as aluminium and are supported against buckling on the press during
moulding by a support bolster (4,7).

Abstract: A network hub and Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) translator system (S) for use in
a Local Area Network (LAN)-based communications system is disclosed. The network hub and
ATM translator system (5) includes a host controller (10) that serves as the LAN hub, and which
interfaces with a translator card (15) which includes a segmentation and reassembly device (12)
in connection with SONET receive/transmit circuitry (20) that communicates with a transceiver
(22) to transmit and receive ATM packet cells over a communications facility (FO). The
translator card (15) also includes a scheduler (14) that includes a heap sort state machine -
which maintains a sorted list of entries, in a heap fashion, in on-chip parameter memory - and
off-chip parameter memory (18). The entries include, for each ATM channel, a channel
identifier and a timestamp that indicates the time at which the next cell for the channel will be
due for transmission. A due comparator - compares the timestamp of the root value in the
heap (i.e., the channel with the next due cell) to a global time generated by a reference timer - ,
and indicates to a source behavior processor - in the scheduler (14) that a cell is due for
transmission. The scheduler than issues a transmit credit for the cell, and communicates this
event with the SAR device (12) to effect the transmission as appropriate.

Abstract: L'invention concerne une procédé pour caractériser les niveaux souterrains de la terre avec un plus grand degré de précision que jusqu'à présent. Des échantillons de données séismiques subissent une migration et sont superposés, par exemple selon les techniques connues, et sont ensuite soumis à une analyse spectrale. Cette analyse spectrale s'applique à une entité de la sub-surface et, par exemple, une couche particulière délimitée par une paire d'horizons fera l'objet d'une analyse spectrale volumique par réflexion. Cette analyse s'effectue à l'aide d'une base orthogonale en exprimant les signaux de réflexion sous forme de coefficients selon un ensemble de polynômes orthogonaux. Les caractéristiques ou des attributs séismiques additionnels peuvent être calculés directement à partir des coefficients polynomiaux. Ces coefficients représentent les caractéristiques de la couche avec un degré élevé de précision et peuvent être comparés avec des spectres dérivés à priori (par exemple des spectres synthétiques ou des spectres préalablement caractérisés) pour faciliter l'analyse des données séismiques mesurées.

Abstract: A casual agent pool is provided to facilitate the management of a light load of inbound calls to a calling center where many employees (agents) may optionally answer those calls as part of their work duties. Agents may transact other business while logged onto the pool, and are alerted to the presence of an incoming call by, for example, the telephone ringing or a computer screen message. Casual agents may then choose whether or not to take an inbound call, depending on their circumstances. The system thus optimizes call agent resources in lightly-loaded applications having many potential agents available, allowing agents to transact other business while being potentially available to take calls, thereby obviating the need to manage a dedicated agent pool.
