Apparatus for training a subject dog to perform target odor detecting operations within a completely confined compartment, which comprises a partial compartment having at least three angularly different surfaces to define an interior. The surfaces are sufficiently long to provide a subject dog located within the interior with a sensation of being at least partially confined. An air inlet is defined by a configuration of the partial compartment, by which odor laden air is introducible into the interior and is detectable by the nose of the subject dog. A dog interfaceable member is operatively connected to the partial compartment and activatable upon detection of a predetermined target odor.

A communication system for communicating between a tire/wheel assembly and a body of a vehicle of a construction in which the tire/wheel assembly is supported by the vehicle body, has a i) wheel-side communication device that is mounted to the tire/wheel assembly and rotates together with the tire/wheel assembly, and ii) a body-side communication device that is mounted in a fixed position to the vehicle body. The communication system performs communication between the wheel-side communication device and the body-side communication device according to a predetermined rotational position of the tire/wheel assembly.

A forward compatibility guaranteed data compression and decompression method and apparatus are provided. The compressed data decompression apparatus includes a compressed file parsing unit which parses a compressed file comprising compressed data, a header including information on the compressed data and an extension field to extract the compressed data, and an original file generating unit which decompresses the compressed data to generate an original file. The extension field includes one or more extension field units and an extension field terminating code indicating an end of a region capable of including the extension field units, each of the header and the extension field units starts with a data identification code having the same number of bytes, and the extension field unit further includes its own length data separated by a predetermined number of bytes from its own data identification code. If the data identification code of the extension field unit is not defined while the parsing is carried out based on the data identification code, the compressed file parsing unit skips the extension field unit using the length data without processing the extension field unit.

A method and system for improving fuel economy in a vehicle. The vehicle is equipped with an internal combustion engine, and a suspension air-spring automatic pneumatic control system. The internal combustion engine is controlled by an electronic engine control module. A load signal representative of the cargo load is generated and fed to the engine control module to cause the engine control module to enter a reduced horsepower mode of operation when the vehicle is less than fully loaded. Alternatively, the load signal is used as a basis for attenuating a fuel demand signal generated by the accelerator pedal deflection when the driver presses the accelerator pedal. The attenuated fuel demand signal is input to the engine control module, causing the engine control module to reduce the fuel consumed by the engine when the vehicle is less than fully loaded.

The rectifier includes a rectification MOSFET; a comparator having the non-inverted input terminal connected to a drain of the rectification MOSFET and the inverted input terminal connected to a source of the rectification MOSFET, and the control circuit controlling ON and OFF of the rectification MOSFET by an output of the comparator. The control circuit includes the shutoff MOSFET for performing shutoff between the drain of the rectification MOSFET and the non-inverted input terminal of the comparator and the shutoff control circuit performing electrical shutoff between the drain of the rectification MOSFET and the non-inverted input terminal of the comparator by turning off the shutoff MOSFET when a voltage of the drain of the rectification MOSFET is equal to or higher than a first predetermined voltage.

The present invention provides methods of treating cognitive deficits associated with mental retardation. The methods comprise combining cognitive training protocols and a general administration of phosphodiesterase 4 inhibitors.

A data transfer bus system is provided which is able to carry out effective processing of interrupt. To an AHB (Advanced High performance Bus) of an AMBA (Advanced Micro-controller Bus Architecture) system, connected are an AHB bus interface connected to an ARM CPU, an AHB bus arbiter, an AHB-APB bridge, a high-performance peripheral device and a bus request priority determining circuit. Further, to the AHB-APB bridge, a timer and a UART device, etc., are connected via the peripheral bus (APB). The interrupt controller to which interrupt request signals are inputted outputs an interrupt signal to the ARM CPU and the bus request priority determining circuit, and decides whether to generate the bus request sent from the high-performance peripheral device, according to the priority ranking of the interrupt and the bus request.
