Abstract:
Data in tables with foreign key relationship is synchronized in batches employing a two-pass process during playback based on whether the foreign key constraint is a linear dependency, self-referencing, or cyclic. A separate table containing a primary key of records and database timestamp columns for change operations may also be used for batch synchronization in addition to or instead of adding database timestamp columns to existing tables.
Abstract:
A system and method for measuring and controlling stator winding temperature in an AC motor while idling is disclosed. The system includes a circuit having an input connectable to an AC source and an output connectable to an input terminal of a multi-phase AC motor. The circuit further includes a plurality of switching devices to control current flow and terminal voltages in the multi-phase AC motor and a controller connected to the circuit. The controller is configured to activate the plurality of switching devices to create a DC signal in an output of the motor control device corresponding to an input to the multi-phase AC motor, determine or estimate a stator winding resistance of the multi-phase AC motor based on the DC signal, and estimate a stator temperature from the stator winding resistance. Temperature can then be controlled and regulated by DC injection into the stator windings.
Abstract:
A finished-image generating unit generates a finished image showing a result of a process performed on a target image according to various function setting items. A finished-image display unit, when the target image extends to a plurality of pages, forms the finished image in a stack, and displays the stacked finished image on a display unit with a page structure image that shows an overall page structure of the stacked finished image. A page moving unit, when one of the pages constituting the page structure image is specified via an operating unit, executes a page moving from a page currently displayed on the display unit to the specified page.

Also disclosed are methods for manufacturing transgenic seed and plants with enhanced traits.
Abstract:
An apparatus includes a plurality of bilayer structures positioned adjacent to each other, each of the bilayer structures including a first layer of magnetic material having a first Curie temperature and a second layer of magnetic material positioned adjacent to the first layer, wherein the second layer has a second Curie temperature that is lower than the first Curie temperature, and magnetic grains of the first layer are unstable when the second layer of magnetic material is heated above the second Curie temperature. The recording temperature is reduced due to the smaller switching volume achieved by using vertically decoupled laminations at elevated temperatures.
Abstract:
A thin film structure having a magnetic layer and a seed layer positioned adjacent to the magnetic layer is provided. The seed layer includes a L10 structure.
Abstract:
An image processing unit executes an image process on a target image based on process-setting contents, and generates a processed image. An area extracting unit compares the processed image with the target image, and extracts a partial area of a predetermined size showing a notable effect of the image process executed on the target image, as a checking area. A checking-image display unit displays the processed image corresponding to the extracted checking area on a display unit, as a checking image for checking the process-setting contents of the image process.
Abstract:
A thin film structure comprises a first layer including a first plurality of grains of magnetic material having a first intergranular exchange coupling, and a second layer positioned adjacent to the first layer and including a second plurality of grains of magnetic material having a second intergranular exchange coupling, wherein the second intergranular exchange coupling is larger than the first intergranular exchange coupling and wherein the Curie temperature of the first layer is greater than the Curie temperature of the second layer. A data storage system including the thin film structure is also provided.
Abstract:
An image finish information generation unit included in an image-forming system is configured to generate an expected image finish and an input setting screen to be used for receiving setting inputs from an operator based on image data obtained by reading a document by a scanner or through a network, and to instruct a display unit to display the image finish and the setting screen before print processing. If the operator makes further setting inputs through the input setting screen, another expected image finish screen is generated and displayed, incorporating the setting inputs. Through a spatial item identification unit and a language item identification unit, spatial position information received by a touch panel is identified as a spatial setting item, and voice information through a microphone is recognized by the language item identification as a language setting item. In addition, related setting items are prepared and displayed in a hierarchy.
Abstract:
A system and method for determining electric motor efficiency includes a monitoring system having a processor programmed to determine efficiency of an electric motor under load while the electric motor is online. The determination of motor efficiency is independent of a rotor speed measurement. Further, the efficiency is based on a determination of stator winding resistance, an input voltage, and an input current. The determination of the stator winding resistance occurs while the electric motor under load is online.
