Abstract: A process for manufacturing a nitrile compound through chain elongation of an alkylene amine compound containing three or more amine units in which at least two amine units are protected by a cyclic urea unit and at least one amine unit is not protected, includes reacting the at least one amine unit that is not protected with glycolonitrile or with the combination of formaldehyde and a cyanide compound selected from HCN and inorganic cyanide salts, to add at least one acetonitrile group to the at least one amine unit that is not protected.

Abstract: An improved feeding system is provided to permit sequential entry to animals, one at a time, into a feeding station that weighs the animal, and then provides or prevents access to a single feed or feed blend based on body weight or other criteria. It exits each animal if no feed is to be provided, or after feeding for a specified period of time. The system accommodates animals housed in groups and allows individual animals to be fed precisely with minimal labour input. Feed consumption by individual animals is limited by the amount of time they remain in the feeding area of the station and the amount of feed provided to them. The system provides for the ongoing collection of data about the animals' growth, and controls and monitors feed intake and body weight.

Abstract: The invention relates to a repeater system for forwarding radio signals. The repeater system comprises a donor unit for converting the frequencies of the radio signals from the transmission frequency to an intermediate frequency; a server unit for converting the converted radio signals from the intermediate frequency to the transmission frequency; and a cable, which connects the donor unit and the service unit and transmits the converted radio signals over a distance between the donor unit and the service unit at the intermediate frequency. The donor unit has an uplink donor antenna and a separate downlink donor antenna and/or the service unit has an uplink service antenna and, at the same time, a separate downlink service antenna.

Abstract: An electrically controlled spectacle includes a spectacle frame and optoelectronic lenses housed in the frame. The lenses include a left lens and a right lens, each of the optoelectrical lenses having a plurality of states, wherein the state of the left lens is independent of the state of the right lens. The electrically controlled spectacle also includes a control unit housed in the frame, the control unit being adapted to control the state of each of the lenses independently.

Abstract: A MMU may read page descriptors (using virtual addresses as an index) in a burst mode from page tables in a system memory. The page descriptors may include intermediate physical addresses (“IPAs”, in stage 1) and corresponding physical addresses (“PAs”, in stage 2). The virtual address in conjunction with page table base address register is used to index page descriptors into main memory. The MMU may identify a first group of contiguous IPAs beginning at a base IPA and a second group of contiguous IPAs beginning at an offset from the base IPA. The first and second groups may be separated by at least one IPA not contiguous with either the first or second group. The MMU may read a first PA from the page tables that corresponds to the base IPA. The MMU may store an entry in a buffer that includes the PA and a first linearity tag.

Abstract: Data comprising a compressed image frame and temporal redundancy information is received. The image frame is decompressed. A plurality of bridge frames that are visually dissimilar to the image frame are generated. The image frame and the plurality of bridge frames are blended, generating a plurality of blended frames, and the plurality of blended frames are displayed.
