摘要:
When an access request is generated from a client in a network file server comprising a computer including a communication controller connected to at least one client through a network and transferring information on a plurality of addresses inside a main storage device as one packet to at least one client, the main storage device having a buffer, a central processing unit and an input/output bus for mutually connecting the communication controller, the central processing unit and the main storage device, and a secondary storage device connected to the computer, an area for storing the data corresponding to this access request is allocated into the buffer of the main storage device. The data corresponding to the access request is read out from the secondary storage device, is transferred to the buffer and is stored in the allocated area. A header for the data in the allocated area in the buffer, the address and size of the header and the address and size of the data are generated in the main storage device on the basis of the access request. As the address and size of the header and the address and size of the data are reported to the communication controller, the data inside the allocated area in the buffer are transferred as one packet to at least one client by the communication controller.

In a method of increasing the network use efficiency of computer communication and reducing the limitation of byte stream in a transmit/receive request, a virtual circuit is established between protocol modules such as applications for providing the communication function between software to mate one transmit request with one receive request. By returning an acknowledgement in a unit of request, any vain acknowledgement can be avoided and even in the case of asynchronous transmission/reception, a request which is completed in transmission/reception can be ended immediately, thus permitting efficient data transfer. Even when the transmit request length and the receive request length differ from each other, reliable communication of a request having a smaller request length can be ensured between mating transmit and receive requests. Further, in the case of synchronous transmission/reception, by copying only the latter half of a transmission buffer and returning a virtual ACK to the transmitting side when reception of the former half ends, the acknowledgement need not be waited for, thus permitting efficient data transfer.

A video displaying method of displaying, on a display unit, contents of video files. Each of the video files is composed of a plurality of images. The video displaying method includes the steps of extracting, from one of the video files, a plurality of images at predetermined intervals from the images composing the video file; displaying the extracted images on the display unit; in response to a selection of one image from the displayed images, reproducing the video file including the selected image beginning at a position of the selected image in the video file; and displaying the reproduced video file on the display unit.

A video searching method, and apparatus, having a function of representing a video file are provided such that the contents of video files stored in a storage device may be recognized definitely and rapidly. The video searching apparatus includes a computer, a storage device, a device for controlling them, and a display device. The apparatus includes a software resource for producing a group image formed of at least two still images of scenes representing the contents of each of video files stored in the storage device. In the apparatus, the size of the group image is changed at any time. In response to manipulation of the group image, file operation such as deletion, movement or name change of a corresponding video file is performed.

In a video storage and delivery apparatus and corresponding system, video data items are simultaneously supplied to a plurality of users while guaranteeing the time axis and the picture quality of the video data. The apparatus includes a frame address table which indicates a storage location in the apparatus of each frame of video data to start a special reproduction or a reproduction at a desired frame and a control unit controlling a switch bus connecting a plurality of video storage and delivery apparatuses to a plurality of channels so as to conduct data transfers via the switch bus between the apparatuses and between video reproduction devices of the users. From an optical disk data storage storing video data, a plurality of video data items are read in a timesharing fashion to be temporarily stored in a magnetic disk device or a semiconductor memory, thereby delivering the video data items therefrom to the users.

An improved flame-retardant composition and method for its use are provided. The composition imparts flame retardency to synthetic thermoplastic resins to prevent dripping of the melt of the resin when the resin is burnt. The composition comprises a flame retardant agent such as phosphate ester compound, optionally combined with a metal hydroxide, and an organopoly-siloxane-based graft copolymer of a (meth)acrylic acid ester such as methyl(meth)-acrylate. The flame retardant is used in an amount from 1-50 parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of the synthetic resin, and the graft copolymer provides 0.5 to 20 parts by weight of an organosilicone group per 100 parts by weight of the synthetic resin.

A general neuro-computer and system using it is capable of executing a plurality of learning algorithms, providing an instruction execution speed comparable with a hard wired system, and practically neglecting a time required for rewriting microprograms. The neuro-computer is constituted by a neuron array having a plurality of neurons, a control storage unit for storing microinstructions, a parameter register, a control logic, and a global memory. A host computer as a user interface inputs information necessary for the learning and execution of the neuro-computer to the system, the information including learning algorithms, neural network architecture, the number of learnings, the number of input patterns, input signals, and desired signals. The information inputted from the host computer is transferred via a SCSI to the neuro-computer to perform a desired neural network operation.

This invention discloses a clock distribution system which distributes a first clock signal as a reference clock as the reference for the phase and frequency to each processing unit (e.g. LSI) and generates a multi-phase second clock signal to be used in each processing unit by a delay circuit group whose delay time is adjusted. The clock distribution system comprises a clock generation block for generating a one-phase reference clock; a first control loop for comparing the phase of the reference clock with the phase of a feedback signal and adjusting the phase of the reference clock so that their phases are in agreement; and a second control loop including a delay circuit group consisting of a plurality of variable delay circuits to which the reference clock phase-adjusted by the first control loop is inputted and which are connected in series, and means for generating a multi-phase clock signal by use of the output signal of each of the plurality of variable delay circuits and the phase-adjusted referencde clock, controlling the delay time of the plurality of variable delay circuits so as to accomplish a predetermined relation with the period of the phase-adjusted reference clock and applying one of the multi-phase clock signals as the feedback signal described above to the first control loop.

A hydrolyzable group-containing organohydrogenpolysiloxane is prepared by (A) reacting (a) an organosiloxane with (b) an organosilane or organosiloxane containing a hydrolyzable group, at least one of components (a) and (b) containing hydrosilyl, in the presence of a superstrong acid catalyst, (B) adding an inorganic basic neutralizing agent and/or an adsorbent to the resulting reaction solution, and (C) removing the neutralized and/or adsorbed form of the superstrong acid catalyst. The process proceeds in an essentially non-aqueous system, and the organohydrogenpolysiloxane free of residual acidic catalyst is obtainable at low cost.
