    Abstract: A pipelined circuit contains a cascade of stages, each with an intial register followed by a combinatorial logic circuit. The registers are clocked. At the beginning of each clock period, data in the initial register is updated. After that, during the clock period, data propagates from the initial register, along a path through the combinatorial logic circuits, to the initial register in the next stage where it is stored at the beginning of the next cycle. In the path there are several other registers, in which the data is stored at intermdiate phases of the clock cycle, while the data is kept in the initial register. Thus differences in propagation delay along different branches of the path are eliminated without increasing the number of clock cycles needed to pass data through the pipelined circuit. This reduces the number glitches which consume energy without affecting the function of the circuit.

    Abstract: A device which includes a first integrated circuit and a second IC for applying a fixed logic value to an input of the first integrated circuit. A conventional implementation uses pull-up and pull-down resistors, but these resistors necessitate an additional step and additional elements for the testing of the relevant interconnections. The device is improved in that an output of the second IC, which outputs the logic value during normal operation, is controlled via test logic during testing. As a result, the interconnections between the output of the second IC and the input of the first IC are tested in the same way and as part of the testing of the other interconnections between the first and second integrated circuits.

    Abstract: A method and apparatus for forming a visual index of scenes in a video image which has been or is being recorded in a computer readable memory. A selected number of keyframes are derived from the recorded image, each being representative of a respective scene therein. The keyframes are then ordered into a selected number of levels of detail of the scenes represented thereby, each level including a predetermined number of keyframes, each subsequent level including keyframes of greater detail than those in a preceding level. A header file is then formed which is descriptive of the ordered set of keyframes, and the header file is stored together with the ordered set of keyframes in the computer readable memory. A user can thereby identify and obtain optimized retrieval in accordance with his preferences of particular segments of the video image from a relatively slow memory device. The method and apparatus are equally applicable to formation of an indexed order of binary large objects ("blobs") in a set of multimedia documents in accordance with a user's preferences.

    Abstract: Known is a telecommunications system supporting adding calling party information to a call from a calling subscriber device to a called subscriber device. The called subscriber device comprises call logging means for logging unanswered calls in a date-time-stamp order. If the logging table is full, the oldest and last table entry is dropped from the logging table. This may result in undesired dropping of urgent frequent callers if the called party is absent and many callers having one call unanswered call after the frequent and urgent caller.A telecommunications system is provided wherein per calling subscriber unanswered calls are counted. Logging table entries of frequent callers are updated, a call count value is displayed, and a previous entry is deleted. Frequent unanswered calls may be put on top of the logging table or the logging table may be sorted in a decreasing order of call count numbers.

    Abstract: The invention relates to a digital transmission system comprising a receiver, in which system a trellis-based estimation method (3) with a number of states reduced as a result of feedback (5) of at least one feedback value (.xi.) forms estimates (a) for a received signal (r) by means of an estimated impulse response (h) of a transmission system (1), a feedback value (.xi.) being determined from at least one estimate (a). With reduced-state estimation methods for the digital transmission, the problem consists of the additional noise components caused by the feedback of preliminary false symbol decisions. To achieve optimum estimates (a) for the received signal (r) despite a reduced number of states due to feedback, the receiver forms the feedback value (.xi.) from at least one intermediate value (a.sub.SDF). In digital transmission systems, the transmit symbols (a) and the estimates (a) have the values -1 or 1 in the receiver. In the receiver according to the invention, intermediate values (a.sub.SDF) having a value in the range from -1 to 1 can be fed back, so that a better feedback value (.xi.) and thus better estimates (a) for the received signal (r) may be achieved.
