A phase-modulating apparatus includes a spatial light modulator, an input value setting unit, a plurality of sets of reference data, a converting unit, and a driving unit. The input value setting unit sets an input value for each pixel. Each set of reference data corresponds to at least one pixel. The converting unit converts an input value inputted for each pixel to a control value by referencing the corresponding set of reference data. The driving unit converts the control value to a voltage value. The driving unit drives each pixel with a drive voltage corresponding to the voltage value. Each set of reference data correlates a plurality of first values from which input values are taken, and a plurality of second values from which control values are taken to ensure that the relationship between the plurality of first values and phase modulation amounts attained by the corresponding at least one pixel is a prescribed linear relationship.

A method and system for validating data. Warehouse data is generated by transforming source data via an ETL transformation model. A data cube is generated by transforming the warehouse data via an OLAP transformation model. A report dataset (MDS1) is generated from the data cube. A reference dataset (S) is generated from the source data. Whether MDS1 matches S is determined. If MDS1 doesn't match S, then an OLAP inverse transformation is performed on MDS1 to generate an OLAP dataset (MDS2) and whether MDS2 matches S is determined. If MDS1 doesn't match S and MDS2 does not match S, then an ETF inverse transformation is performed on MDS2 to generate an ETL dataset (MDS3) and whether MDS2 matches MDS1 and whether MDS3 matches S is determined. If MDS1 doesn't match S and MDS2 does not match S and MDS3 does not match S, then whether MDS3 matches MDS2 is determined.

A method for monitoring execution of a sequence of data processing program instructions in a security module associated to a multimedia unit connected to a managing center supplying control messages authorizing access to broadcast data streams. The security module comprises a processor for executing the instructions, a memory, and a monitoring module for analyzing the instructions before execution by the processor. The managing center comprises a security module emulator generating reference data sets by executing a sequence of instructions induced by data of a given control message in the program. The reference data sets are appended to control messages sent to the security module. The monitoring module analyzes a sequence of program instructions for determining a check data set which is compared with a reference data set received from the control messages. When the reference and check data sets match, the program continues executing. Otherwise, further control message processing stops.

The present invention relates to a method of processing a data record for finding a counterpart in a reference data set. In the data record a value of a data field is determined, where the data field represents an identifier. At least one synonym candidate for the value of the data field is determined from a set of predetermined identifier values. It is determined if a synonym candidate and the value of the data field fulfill a predetermined synonym acceptance criterion, and if the predetermined synonym acceptance criterion is fulfilled, the value of the data field and the synonym candidate are associated as synonyms. Thereafter a search for a counterpart for the data record is conducted by comparing to entries of the reference data set the value of the data field and/or a synonym associated with the value of the data field.

Described are computer-based methods and apparatuses, including computer program products, for removing redundant data from a storage system. In one example, a data delineation process delineates data targeted for de-duplication into regions using a plurality of markers. The de-duplication system determines which of these regions should be subject to further de-duplication processing by comparing metadata representing the regions to metadata representing regions of a reference data set. The de-duplication system identifies an area of data that incorporates the regions that should be subject to further de-duplication processing and de-duplicates this area with reference to a corresponding area within the reference data set.

In a method and magnetic resonance (MR) for correction of movement in the acquisition of MR images of an examination region, wherein the movement that occurs between the acquisition of data of spatially different slices of the examination region is taken into account, data from the examination region are acquired in multiple slices that are acquired in at least two groups, with slices of a second group arranged at least partially between slices of the first group, such that at least one slice of the second group lies between slices of the first group. Correction for movement of the examination region that occurred between the acquisition of data of the slices of the first group and the acquisition of data of an intervening slice of the second group is done by reconstructing a reference data set for the intervening slice from acquired slice data of the first group for the movement correction. This reference data set is compared with data of the acquisition of the MR image of the intervening slice in order to determine and correct the occurred movement.
