The invention concerns a method and a base station (21) for controlling beam forming in a mobile cellular network: Antenna units (212) of base stations (21) of a cluster of neighbored base stations (21) apply a respective beam pattern sequence on each sector of a cell served by the respective base station (21). The beam pattern sequence is selected from a respective predefined set of beam pattern sequences and each beam pattern sequence defines a sequence of beam subsets used for communication with mobile units (41, 42, 43, 44). One of the base stations (21) of the cluster which acts as trigger base station informs all neighbored base stations of the cluster of neighbored base stations (21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27) not to change their beam pattern sequences. The trigger base station (21) controls the antenna unit (212) of the trigger base station (21) to change the beam pattern sequence applied on the sectors of the cell and sequently apply two or more different beam pattern sequences of the predefined set of beam pattern sequences on the respective sector. The trigger base station (21) triggers one or more mobile units (41, 42, 43, 44) located in the cluster of neighbored base stations to calculate one or more signal quality parameters for currently applied beam pattern sequences of the trigger base station (21). The trigger base station (21) selects an optimal beam pattern sequence from the set of the predefined beam pattern sequences based on the one or more calculated signal quality parameters and the antenna unit (212) of the trigger base station (21) applies the optimal beam pattern sequence as a new beam pattern sequence on the respective sector.

On the production of bakery products using rice flour as a major material, the first object of the present invention is to provide a process for producing bakery products with improved qualities such as appearance, crumb, taste, and preservability, as well as satisfactory handleability. The second object of the present invention is to provide such bakery products having excellent qualities, which are obtainable thereby. The third object of the present invention is to provide premixed flours for producing the bakery products with improved qualities. The fourth object of the present invention is to provide fermented doughs for producing the excellent bakery products. The present invention solves the above objects by providing a process for producing bakery products comprising a step of fermenting dough comprising a rice flour, gluten, and less-fermentable saccharide; bakery products obtainable thereby; premixed flour suitable for producing the bakery products; and fermented doughs suitable for producing the bakery products.

Systems and methods are described for operating a hybrid computing system using cluster contraction for converting large, dense input to reduced input that can be easily mapped into a quantum processor. The reduced input represents the global structure of the problem. Techniques involve partitioning the input variables into clusters and contracting each cluster. The input variables can be partitioned using an Unweighted Pair Group Method with Arithmetic Mean algorithm. The quantum processor returns samples based on the reduced input and the samples are expanded to correspond to the original input.

A pixel of a display device includes a capacitor; a light emitting diode; and first, second, third, and fourth transistors. The display device has a normal frequency mode and a low frequency mode. Two electrodes of the capacitor are respectively connected to a first voltage source and a gate node. A gate electrode of the first transistor is connected to the gate node. In a hold period in the low frequency mode, both the second and third transistors receive a scan signal, the third transistor diode-connects the first transistor, the fourth transistor receives an initialization signal and transfers an initialization voltage to the gate node, the scan signal is at a first off voltage level, and the initialization signal is at a second off voltage level unequal to the first off voltage level. The cathode of the light emitting diode is connected to a second voltage source.

A hybrid virtual multiple-input multiple-output (V-MIMO) transmission method of a management node in a wireless ad-hoc network in which a transmission path from a source node to a destination node is divided into one or more sections is provided. The hybrid V-MIMO transmission method includes obtaining one or more pieces of node information of one or more nodes by transmitting an information request message to the nodes in response to a transmission request message for data transmission from the source node to the destination node; setting a shortest path (SP) from the source node to the destination node based on the obtained node information; determining transmission schemes individually for nodes present on the SP; issuing a transmission preparation request by transmitting the determined transmission schemes to the respective corresponding nodes; and transmitting a transmission start message to the source node in response to transmission ready responses from the respective nodes.

Methods and systems for simulating the natural tempo of humans are provided. The method utilizes multiples of a basic unit of duration, or quantum unit, of human timing. Unconscious, but precise, compensations occur through imperceptible changes in the timing quantum level. An application of natural human tempo to improve the basic metronome function by humanizing it is also provided. Other ramifications of human tempo simulation are also discussed, including robots and computer games and graphics.

The green tire G is placed in horizontal attitude on a green tire support table 3 provided with a lower tire bead correcting unit 10. Radially movable pressing members 13 included in the lower tire bead correcting unit 10 are engaged with the inner side of the lower tire bead Bl of the green tire G and stoppers 29 of the upper tire bead correcting unit 20 are engaged with the inner side of the upper tire bead Bu of the green tire G placed on the green tire support table 3. The pressing members 13 of the lower tire bead correcting unit 10 are moved radially outward to shape the lower tire bead Bl into a completely round shape of a predetermined diameter. The stoppers 29 of the upper tire bead correcting unit 20 are moved radially outward to shape the upper tire bead Bu into a completely round shape of a predetermined diameter and, at substantially the same time, the upper tire bead correcting unit 20 or the lower tire bead correcting unit 10 is moved vertically to adjust the axial distance B between the tire beads Bu and Bl to a predetermined axial bead spacing.
