The present invention aims to provide a steel cord-rubber composite that is, even when a rubber composition constituting coating rubber does not contain cobalt salt, excellent in adhesion to a steel cord and capable of suppressing a decrease in modulus. A request for data from a first computing system using a first character set is received by a second computing system using a second character set. The output table and the next state table are constructed with the objective of providing maximal distances between the branches of the trellis diagram without any regards for the shift register implementation of the code. The continuous stream of the above measurement data, thus, allows accurate determination the status of the polymer for many polymer containing process streams, such as an ongoing polymerization reaction mixture, polymer resin fluid, melt or solid polymer flow. Through the segmented portion of the nozzle, the outer wall then continues to curve away from the inner wall before again curving back towards the inner wall at a nozzle exit station. The system within the NTC includes architecture to manage tests in accordance with requirements imposed by data provided.
