Abstract: An argon gas is introduced into an ECR plasma-generating chamber
from a gas flow rate-controlling equipment with a gas supplying tube, and a
hydrogen gas is introduced into a vacuum chamber with a gas supplying tube as
well. Then, an ECR plasma is generated in the ECR plasma-generating
chamber and is introduced into the vacuum chamber. The ECR plasma is
irradiated to a silicon nitride film and thereby only nitrogen elements are
removed. Changing the flow rates of the hydrogen gas and the argon gas, an
ECR plasma generated as above-mentioned is irradiated to the silicon nitride
film and thereby only silicon elements are removed.

Abstract: A system and method for processing commands to network target devices (56) through an SCSI router (54) in a Fibre Channel network (10) having a plurality of Fibre Channel hosts (52). The system and method are implemented in the SCSI router and include receiving a command from one of the hosts and, if the command is for a transfer of data larger than a threshold size, streaming the data to the target device. When a presize memory block is free, a data block is requested from the Fibre Channel host that issued the command. The SCSI router receives data blocks and stores them in a FIFO queue until an initial number of data blocks are stored in the FIFO queue. Data blocks are then forwarded to the target device until a trigger number of blocks remain in the queue. Additional data blocks are requested and received from the host simultaneously with the forwarding of data blocks to the target device. The target device requests data blocks from the SCSI router until all of the data associated with the command has been transferred.

Abstract: A gateway location register (GLR) can restore data by sending a reset message to all of the visitor location registers (VLR) associated with the GLR. Alternatively, the data in the GLR can be restored when a request for a roaming number is sent to the GLR from a home location register (HLR). In any case the location information is restored from the VLR and the subscriber profile from the HLR. If the GLR has a backup memory, the GLR can forward a request for a roaming number to a VLR which is indicated by the backup memory as serving the mobile subscriber associated with the roaming number request received from the HLR. If the information contained in the backup memory is incorrect, the GLR can send a request to restore data to all VLRs associated with the GLR. Further, the GLR, upon receipt of a roaming number request for a subscriber whose serving VLR is unknown, the GLR can send an error indication to the HLR and wait for a location update from a serving VLR. In addition, if the backup data is incorrect or non-existent, the GLR can send a request for a roaming number to all its associated VLRs which have not yet received the request.

Abstract: In a system for reducing the data in a video, the frames of the video are scored by how well
the frames can be recreated from the remaining frames after frames in the video have been
eliminated. Each frame is recreated by an interpolation mending technique from the adjacent frames
in the reduced video and the mended frame is compared with the original frame to determine a score
for the frame. Following the scoring process wherein each frame is scored, only those frames which
can be most accurately recreated by the mending process are eliminated. The reduced video is then
transmitted and the mending process is then used to recreate the eliminated frames at the receiver
to restore the video to a close approximation of its original form.
