Abstract: An apparatus for a continuous, automated quantitation of tin compounds in liquid samples and a method for quantitative analysis based on the said apparatus are provided herein. The inventive apparatus acidifies liquid samples and in case organotin compounds are present in the sample, a selective UV irradiation converts the organotin compounds into inorganic tin. The inventive apparatus quantitates this inorganic tin by means of electrochemical methods. The apparatus and method of the present invention allow quantitative analyses of trace amounts of organic and inorganic tin compounds present in liquid samples by converting organotin, a form unsuited for measurement, into inorganic tin, a form amenable to measurements and performing electrochemical analysis. Above all, the present invention affords the construction of an automated, continuous analysis system, making unnecessary additional manual operations and reducing labor costs.

Abstract: In a method for providing a video data streaming service, a server determines whether an occupancy is below a first threshold or is equal to or greater than a second threshold, the occupancy representing the amount of data occupying a queuing buffer of a terminal and the first threshold being less than the second threshold. If the occupancy is not below the first threshold, the server provides the data streaming service at a predetermined service bit rate which is less than the current service bit rate. If the occupancy is equal to or greater than a second threshold, the server provides the data streaming service at a predetermined service bit rate which is greater than the current service bit rate.

Abstract: A process for preparing an emulsion polymer comprising placing a first mixture of monomers in a feed tank B which is connected directly to a reactor, placing a second mixture of monomers in a feed tank A which is connected to the feed tank B, and continuously varying the composition ratio of the monomers of feed tanks A and B in the emulsion polymer. The composition ratio is varied by varying the rate of feeding of the second mixture of monomers present in tank A into tank B while simultaneously varying the rate of feeding of the first mixture of monomers present in tank B into the reactor. The polymerization occurs as the first and second mixtures of monomers are simultaneously fluxed in the reactor while stirring.
