Abstract: A cooling system for cooling nuclear fuel stored in a pool that can prevent a lowering of water level resulting from evaporation is provided. The cooling system cools the nuclear fuels 3 stored in a bottom of the pool 2 filled with cooling water 4. The cooling water 4 comprises an upper layer formed in a water surface as side in which a density of the cooling water 4 is low, a lower layer formed in the bottom side of the pool 2 in which a density of the cooling water 4 is high, and an intermediate layer in which a density of the cooling water 4 is in between those of the cooling waters 4 in the upper layer and the lower layer. A lower end 5a of a heat pipe 5 adapted to transport heat in the form of latent heat of working fluid is situated at a site where the heat is exchanged with the cooling water 4, and an upper 5b end of the heat pipe 5 is exposed to external air. The nuclear fuel 3 is stored within the lower layer.

Abstract: An emergency cooling system for cooling an object certainly and rapidly in case a temperature of the object is accidentally raised abnormally. A loop thermosyphon is formed by connecting an evaporating portion with a condensing portion through a vapor pipe and a return pipe in a manner to form a cyclic conduit. A condensable working fluid circulates within the loop thermosyphon to be evaporated by a heat of the cooling object at the evaporating portion, and to be condensed at the condensing portion to radiate the heat conducted from the cooling object. A switching valve is disposed on the return pipe to selectively allow the working fluid in a liquid phase to be returned from the condensing portion to the evaporating portion. Heat transfer pipes to which the heat of the cooling object is conducted are arranged in the evaporating portion.

Abstract: When a user issues a bookmark setup instruction, bookmark information, which includes identification information for a reproduction point whereat video and audio data for currently reproduced content are recorded, identification information for the pertinent content and position information indicating the current reproduction point are generated and stored in a storage unit. And when a user issues a bookmark display instruction, the bookmark information is read from the storage unit and a list of bookmarks is displayed. When one of the bookmarks on the list is selected and its reproduction is instructed, a command is transmitted to a reproduction apparatus, indicated in bookmark information that corresponds to the selected bookmark, to reproduce content, indicated in the bookmark information, beginning at a reproduction point designated in the bookmark information.

Abstract: A communication device transmits to a relaying device a transmission right grant request for requesting a grant of a transmission right to a transmitting device, and the relaying device determines whether the received transmission right grant request is a command associated with the transmission right of the communication device or a command associated with the transmitting device, and if it determines that it is the command associated with the transmitting device, it grants the transmission right to the transmitting device, and starts broadcasting of data being transmitted from the transmitting device. In addition, when receiving from the communication device an operation command for operating the transmitting device, the relaying device determines a type of the command and transmits it to the transmitting device.
