Abstract: A dual-port semiconductor memory device having one serial memory cell of a serial access memory provided for a predetermined number of bit line pairs. A transfer gate circuit is provided between the serial memory cell and the predetermined number of bit line pairs so that only one bit line pair is selectively coupled to one serial memory at one time. Access to the dual-port semiconductor memory device is made in n/m stages when there are n bit line pairs and m serial memory cells in the serial access memory.

Abstract: A refractory for use in a non-ferrous metal melting furnace, comprising a mixture of high-alumina aggregate particles containing at least 60% by weight of aluminum oxide and silicon nitride particles, admixed with particles of a solid substance; e.g., graphite, which generates carbon monoxide by reaction with the melt of said non-ferrous metals. This refractory has an advantage of being highly difficult to be corroded by slag formed during melting of said non-ferrous metal.

Abstract: Provided by this invention is a slaking-resistant calcia refractory comprising, as a fired mixture, (a) 2% by weight or less of silicon dioxide, (b) aluminum oxide (Al.sub.2 O.sub.3) and magnesium oxide (MgO) of the amount defined in the graph of FIG. 5 as within the region enclosed by the lines connecting point A (2.5 wt % Al.sub.2 O.sub.3 and 0 wt % MgO), point B (1.5 wt % Al.sub.2 O.sub.3 and 1.5 wt % MgO), point C (1.5 wt % Al.sub.2 O.sub.3 and 8.5 wt % MgO) and point D (10 wt % Al.sub.2 O.sub.3 and 0 wt % MgO), (c) 0.9% by weight or less of iron oxide, and (d) a predominant amount of calcium oxide.
