✦ Synopsis

The hashCode() method found in the Java TM programming language, and similar methods in other languages, map an arbitrary object to an integer value that is constant for the lifetime of the object. We review existing implementations of the hash operation, specifying the kinds of memory systems for which they work. Then we propose a new implementation of hashing for the hardest case: memory systems with compaction and direct pointers. Our proposal uses just two bits of space per object for the (majority of) objects that are never hashed.

## Abstract A new strategy to yield information from the maximum number of voxels, each at the optimum signal‐to‐noise ratio (SNR) per unit time, in MR spectroscopic imaging (MRSI) is introduced. In the past, maximum acquisition duty‐cycle was obtained by multiplexing in time several single slices

Committee reports. Report on patent law

Committee reports. Report on patent law revision**The evidence in support of the Preambles and Resolutions and suggested additions to the copyright, patent and trade-mark laws contained in the first part of our report was not published in the May Journal owing to want of space. I am now sending you the remaining part of the report, by request, as it is considered quite necessary for the members of the Association to have in their hands before the next annual meeting, the entire document for consideration and study. It is believed that this will decidedly facilitate matters and save much time at the annual meeting which otherwise might be used up in unnecessary discussion of the subject.Your Committee wishes to again emphasize that fact that we have no desire to impose our personal views on the Association. The copyright and patent laws were designed to promote progress in science and the useful arts and the trade-mark laws to protect the public from fraud and imposition. It is generally conceded that the laws as now interpreted and applied fall short in accomplishing their purpose. It is therefore incumbent upon the A. Ph. A., representing the pharmacists of America, to suggest proper modifications of the law, of such kind as to secure the very important objects for which they were enacted.—F. E. Stewarcth, Chairman.
