    Abstract: A hybrid tuner, comprising multiple individual tuners having differing capabilities of receiving programs or channels of broadcast audio or video content, can be controlled by periodically determining the capabilities of each individual tuner to receive broadcast channels, storing such information into a guide database and then utilizing such information to select appropriate individual tuners to tune in desired programs. If the tuners that can receive a desired program are already in use, the program they are currently receiving can be switched to a different tuner to free up the tuner that can receive the desired program without interrupting the consumption of the program currently being received. When determining the capabilities of an individual tuner to receive a particular channel, one or more tokens associated with such a channel, and utilized to prevent unauthorized access to such a channel, can be obtained from the guide database and provided to the tuner.

    Abstract: A plating analysis method is disclosed for electroplating in a system in which resistance of an anode and/or a cathode cannot be neglected. This method comprises giving a three-dimensional Laplace's equation, as a dominant equation, to a region containing a plating solution; discretizing the Laplace's equation by the boundary element method; giving a two-dimensional or three-dimensional Poisson's equation dealing with a flat surface or a curved surface, as a dominant equation, to a region within the anode and/or the cathode; discretizing the Poisson's equation by the boundary element method or the finite element method; and formulating a simultaneous equation of the discretized equations to calculate a current density distribution i and a potential distribution &phgr; in the system. The method can obtain the current density and potential distributions efficiently for a plating problem requiring consideration for the resistance of an electrode. The method also optimizes the structure of a plating bath for uniformizing current, which tends to be concentrated in the outer peripheral portion of the cathode, thereby making the plating rate uniform.

    Abstract: A control system for a hybrid vehicle prevents a voltage across an electric energy storage device from dropping excessively when the electric energy storage device is discharged with a generator/motor operating as an electric motor, for thereby effectively utilizing electric energy stored in the electric energy storage device as much as possible to operate the generator/motor as the electric motor. The control system also prevents the voltage across the electric energy storage device from rising excessively when the electric energy storage device is charged with the generator/motor operating as an electric generator, for thereby charging the electric energy storage device with electric energy generated by the generator/motor as much as possible while protecting the electric energy storage device. The control system controls operation of the generator/motor to keep a charging and discharging current of the electric energy storage device at a level equal to or smaller than a limiting value determined depending on the amount of electric energy stored in electric energy storage device and the temperature thereof when the generator/motor operates as the electric generator or motor.

    Abstract: A fuel injection method wherein optimum fuel injection timing in a fuel-injection type gas fuel engine is determined by setting fuel injection end timing to be after the start of opening of an intake valve. That is, when injection ends in a first half of the intake valve open period the volumetric efficiency .eta.v falls and the engine output also falls, because the injection period overlaps with a period of positive pressure arising inside the intake pipe before opening of the intake valve, but when injection ends in a second half of the intake valve open period the volumetric efficiency .eta.v rises and the engine efficiency also rises, because the injection period overlaps with a period of negative pressure arising in the intake pipe during the first half of the intake value open period. Consequently, when fuel is injected during this trough in the intake port pressure, the volumetric efficiency increases and the engine output also increases by several percent.
