Provided is a method, system, and program for transforming files from a source file format to a destination file format. A data structure is generated in a computer readable medium indicating available transforms from a plurality of source file formats to at least one destination file format. A graphical representation of available transforms from the source file formats to the at least one destination file format is generated based on the available transforms indicated in the data structure. User input is received indicating a selected source file having a source file format and a selected destination file having a selected destination file format, wherein the data structure indicates one available transform to transform the selected source file format to the selected destination file format. The selected source file in the source file format is transformed to the selected destination file in the destination file format.

A system for projecting images is provided having a group of diffractive phase plates each encoded with different image information which have phase shifts aligned to reconstruct visible images in a Fraunhofer diffraction region. The plates are arranged along a path, and may represent successive frames of animation. A light source illuminates the plates and provides, when multiple plates are illuminated, a composite image representing image information encoded in such multiple plates. This composite image is a coincident superposition of reconstructed images from the multiple plates. A mechanism is provided for moving the plates along their path such that images projected from the system in the Fraunhofer diffraction region represent the composite image from successively different illuminated multiple plates or the reconstructed image from a single plate. Both monochromatic and multi-color channel phase plates may be used in the system.

A method, apparatus, and article of manufacture which provides for sending a message to a group and the group then broadcasting the message to the members of the group within an object-oriented system. The method comprises the steps of creating a first sending object and a group in a memory of a computer, the group being comprised of one or more receiving objects, sending a first message to the first sending object, sending a second message from the first sending object to the group based on the receipt of the first message, and broadcasting the second message to every object in the group.

Eyepiece optical systems having arrangements of surfaces where light is refracted or diffracted provide eyepieces with fewer elements and more compact designs than comparable, conventional eyepiece designs. These eyepiece optical systems have three elements each with positive focussing power, and provide a wide field-of-view of about 70.degree. and an eye relief of approximately 80% of the total focal length of the eyepiece. One embodiment has (from the eye side) a refracting, meniscus, positive element with a surface concave toward the eye, a bi-convex element having a refracting convex surface and a second refracting convex surface, and a refractive/diffractive doublet element with a refracting convex surface and diffracting surface (each element being of positive power). Another embodiment, from the eye side has a first diffractive/refractive doublet having a diffracting surface and a convex refracting surface, an equi-convex element having two refracting convex surfaces and a second refracting/diffracting element having a diffracting surface and a convex refracting surface.

A chromatic aberration-corrected optical system for broad-band through-the-lens (TTL) imaging and position detection of alignment marks deposed on a substrate located at the exposure plane of an exposure apparatus, for example, a stepper machine, uses a first projection lens capable of focusing a first broad-band alignment illumination and a second exposure illumination onto the substrate. A second achromat lens and a third refractive/diffractive hybrid lens are configured and designed to provide, in conjunction with the first projection lens, longitudinal and lateral chromatic aberration correction over a wavelength range from about 550-650 nm of the broad-band alignment illumination.
摘要:
A diffractive/refractive hybrid lens for use in an optical data storage system as an objective is provided by a convex-plano singlet having a refractive element defined by plano-convex surfaces and a diffractive element defined by a Fresnel zone-like pattern on the plano surface which together provide the total power of the lens. The refractive lens is made of a high index, high dispersion glass so that the curvature and thickness of the refractive lens is minimized while providing a large numerical aperture (at least 0.45) at the expense of increased longitudinal chromatic aberration, which are compensated by the diffractive element and without the need for one or more additional curved surfaces as in low index biaspheric glass objective lenses for chromatic and mono-chromatic aberration reduction, which increases the thickness and curvatures of the lens. The invention enables longitudinal chromatic aberration to be corrected for at least a 10 nm band width around a center wavelength over a 20 nm range, as results when different lasers are used and as laser power varies during optical data storage on an optical data storage device (an optical disk). The thin, light weight low curvature achromat has maximum tolerance for various possible manufacturing errors such as decentering, variations in thickness of the lens, tilt and focal length especially for on-axis field of view less than 2.degree. while providing a very high quality spot (Strehl ratio of at least 0.9.).

A hose clamp (8) to be positioned on an outlet hose member (7) from a liquid collection bag (1), e.g. a urine collection bag, is provided with two hingedly connected clamp parts (9, 10), one of which (10) has a U-shaped cross-section and lateral portions (13, 14), including longitudinal slots (15) to receive the bottom portion (4) of the bag (1). When mounted, the clamp (8) is pushed onto the bottom portion (4) of the bag (1) so that only a small part of the clamp (8) extends outside the bag. Thereby, the inconveniences to the user are diminished to the largest extent and an improved security against unintentional opening is obtained.
摘要:
A distributed event system for a relational database is disclosed. An event data model operatively describes a target database. For a subject entity in the target database, the event data model declares and defines triggering events and respective corresponding operations. An event engine monitors database queries and events involving the subject entity and determines from the event data model corresponding operations. Execution of the determined corresponding operations is distributed to network-based agents. Agents may be filtered based on skills and/or credentials injected at runtime. Code binaries of the operations are downloaded to the agents for execution.
摘要:
Embodiments of the invention comprise forming a billet from molten steel and hot rolling the billet to reduce the cross sectional area of the billet. Thereafter, the billet is hot rolled into a lead pass bar having a cross-sectional area comprising a reduced width dimension located adjacent to the center longitudinal axis of the bar. In one embodiment of the invention, the billet can be formed into a lead pass bar having a cross-sectional area in the shape of an hourglass or peanut by feeding the billet through a first set of rolls. After the lead pass bar is formed, it is passed through a second set of rolls in order to form the substantially continuous threaded rebar without longitudinal ribs. The cross-sectional area of the lead pass bar helps to produce a substantially continuous threaded rebar product without longitudinal ribs using standard rebar manufacturing tooling and equipment.
