Abstract: A method for replenishing the supply of cryogenic liquid from a storage tank (2) includes: pressurizing a container (14) with cryogenic gas at a first pressure, said container having passing through it a first cryogenic fluid flow line referred to as the cold line and a second cryogenic fluid flow line referred to as the hot line, passing cryogenic liquid at a second pressure through the cold line (12), and supplying the container (14) with cryogenic gas at least partially from cryogenic liquid pumped from the storage tank (2) and vaporized. A device is also provided for the method hereinabove.

Abstract: The image processing system using morphological macrocells comprises: an image acquisition device, a set of memories, a computation block, and a control system. The computation block includes k morphological macrocells (50) each including a set of basic morphological cells (51, 52, 61, 62) organized into parallel branches (f, g), each cell (51, 52, 61, 62) executing a basic erosion, dilation or identity function based on the use of linear structuring elements, the functionality of each morphological cell and the size of the structuring elements being programmable dynamically and the parallel streams coming from the basic morphological cells being combined at the output by an arithmetic and logic unit (70). At least one system for parallelizing the data for processing a plurality of lines, respectively a plurality of columns, in parallel breaks down a word into p parallel data streams and is connected to the p morphological macrocell inputs.
