Abstract: A first blood processing member 5U and a second blood processing member 5D are arranged in a first housing 2/U and a second housing 2/D, respectively. The first blood processing member 5U and the second blood processing member 5D are arranged in such a manner that inside filtration sections 5FI/U and 5FI/D face each other. A first blood chamber 2.1 is formed between the inside filtration sections 5FI/U and 5FI/D, and a second blood chamber 2.2 is formed between the inner periphery of the first housing 2/U and an outside filtration section 5FO/U and between the inner periphery of the second housing 2/D and an outside filtration section 5FO/D. A blood inlet port 7I communicates with the first blood chamber 2.1 (a blood inflow chamber 2IR), and a blood discharge port 7O communicates with the second blood chamber 2.2 (a blood outflow chambers 20R/U and 20R/D).

Abstract: A data transmitting and receiving method for improving transmission and reception efficiency can be obtained by improving the security through update of a control key and reduction of the frequency of the authentication and key exchange process. An STB 1 transmits encrypted digital data Kw (D) obtained by encrypting digital data D using a work key Kw, and an encrypted work key Kc (Kw) obtained by encrypting the Kw using a control key Kc. The Kc is periodically or non-periodically updated, and an identifier L identifying the Kc is assigned to each Kc. A VTR device 2 decrypts the received Kc (Kw) using the Kc obtained by performing the authentication and key exchange process with the STB 1, decrypts the Kw (D) received using the Kw to obtain the D. It is determined whether or not the Kc has been updated while the reception process is suspended by referring to the transmitted L when the reception process is suspended and then resumed.

Abstract: A multichannel display data generating apparatus for generating data for displaying AV data on a multiscreen has a plurality of screens for displaying AV data of a plurality of channels, said apparatus comprising: input means for inputting AV data of a plurality of channels being transferred using a transport packet of a transport stream; a smaller number of PCR extracting means for extracting in a time-sharing mode the PCR of a plurality of channels displayed on said plurality of screens than the number of said plurality of screens; the same number of PLL means for establishing PLL synchronization by using said extracted PCR as the number of said plurality of screens; the same number of STC (system time clock) counter means for counting the times of the channels displayed on said plurality of screens by using the oscillation frequency of said PLL means as the number of said plurality of screens; AV decoding means for AV-decoding the AV data of the channels displayed on said multiscreen in AV synchronizati

Abstract: A multichannel display data generating apparatus displays AV data on a plurality of screens. A channel displayed on one of the screens is displayed without a program clock reference.

Abstract: The problem to be solved is that once copyright claimed AV data is passed to application software, the application software can freely process the AV data for recording, etc., defeating the purpose of copyright protection. The invention provides a computer which comprises a system section 12 and an application software section 13, and which takes in copyright claimed, encrypted data via a digital interface 1 for processing therein, wherein the system section 12 judges that the application software section 13 is legitimate application software for the protection of copyright, and if the application software is a legitimate one, the system section 12 passes a key for the encrypted data to the application software section 13.

Abstract: A digital AV data transmitting unit includes a data significance deciding section for deciding the significance degree of digital AV data, and a transmitting-side plurality-of-authentication-rules storing section storing a plurality of types of authentication rules. Also included are a transmitting-side authentication selecting section for selecting one type of authentication rule from the transmitting-side plurality-of-authentication-rules storing means in accordance with a decision result by the data significance deciding section when receiving an authentication request, and a transmitting-side authenticating section for performing authentication in accordance with the selected authentication rule.

Abstract: According to a method and a system of the present invention, a gray-level data is generated from a binary image while reducing the vertical brightness transition, and a display with a reduced flicker is enabled in an interlaced scanning system. A filtering operation is conducted with respect to each of the pixels in a dot matrix by using the data of each pixel and the dot matrix data of the pixel adjacent to the pixel in a vertical direction, thereby generating a gray-level data and writing the data into a frame memory. A display with a reduced flicker may be conducted by transforming the gray-level data into a predetermined set of colors consisting of a foreground color, a background color, and an intermediate color thereof.
