Abstract: An addressee recognizing apparatus recognizes the addressee of matter to be delivered. A database stores a description format including at least a described position, the number of character lines, and the length of each character line in a sender area on the matter to be delivered. When a scanner obtains an image, a plurality of addressee candidate areas are obtained from the image. The apparatus determines whether the description format for each of the extracted candidates matches the description format for the sender area stored in the database. If the description format for the candidate is determined to match the description format for the sender area, the candidate is prohibited from being recognized as the addressee area.

Title: Procede et logique de comptabilite pour la determination d'utilisation de ressources de processeur pour chaque filiere dans un processeur multifiliere simultane
Inventor: KALLA RONALD NICK
IPC: G06F11/34

Granted: 2008-09-30
Abstract: La présente invention a trait à un procédé et une logique de comptabilité pour la détermination d'utilisation de ressources de processeur pour chaque filière dans un processeur multifilière simultané fournissant un mécanisme pour la comptabilité pour l'usage des ressources de processeur par des programmes et des filières au sein des programmes. L'usage relatif des ressources est déterminé par la détection de distribution d'instructions pour une pluralité de filières actives au sein du processeur, pouvant inclure des filières au repos qui occupent toujours des ressources de processeur. Si des instructions sont distribuées pour toutes les filières ou pour aucune filière, le cycle de processeur est comptabilisé de manière égale pour toutes les filières. En variante, si aucune des filières n'est dans un état de distribution, la comptabilité peut s'effectuer au moyen d'un état prioritaire, ou en conformité avec des rapports des niveaux prioritaires des filières. Si seulement une filière assure la distribution, cette filière est comptabilisée pour le cycle entier du processeur. Si plusieurs filières assurent la distribution, mais un nombre inférieur à la totalité de filières assurent la distribution (dans des processeurs supportant plus de deux filières), le cycle de processeur est facturé de manière uniforme à travers les filières assurant la distribution. Plusieurs distributions peuvent être détectées pour les filières et un usage de ressources fractionnaire déterminé pour chaque filière et les compteurs peuvent être mis à jour selon leur usage fractionnaire.

Title: Forced convection target assembly
Inventor: BUCKLEY KENNETH ROBERT
IPC: G21K5/08
Filed: 2005-06-29
Granted: 2012-09-04
Abstract: Provided is a modified target assembly in which the target fluid is moved within the target assembly in a manner that increases the effective density of the target fluid within the beam path, thereby increasing beam yield utilizing forced convection. The target may also include optional structures, such as nozzles, diverters and deflectors for guiding and/or accelerating the flow of the target fluid. The target assembly directs the target fluid along an inner sleeve in a direction opposite the direction of the beam current to produce a counter current flow and may also direct the flow of the target fluid away from the inner surface of the inner sleeve and toward a central region in the target cavity. This countercurrent flow suppresses natural convection that tends to reduce the density of the target fluid in the beam path and tends to increase the heat transfer from the target.
