Abstract: A subject information acquisition apparatus of the present invention includes a transmission/reception unit including a plurality conversion elements which transmit an elastic wave to the subject and receive a reflected wave that is reflected at each position in the subject, a scan line signal acquisition unit which acquires a plurality of signals corresponding to the reflected waves from each position in the subject as scan line signals by using a plurality of reception signals outputted from the conversion elements, and a processing unit which acquires moving information of the object by using the plurality of scan line signals. The processing unit acquires the moving information of the object on the basis of a distribution of cross-correlation values on a plane represented by two axes including an axis of time difference and an axis of distance difference by using a plurality of cross-correlation values between scan line signals at different positions.

Abstract: The present invention is a checksum rewriting device for rewriting a checksum value. This device includes a translating means for, in a case where a packet is inputted having at least one header consists of a plurality of fields including a checksum field is inputted, translating a value of a predetermined field other than the checksum field; a difference value storing means for storing a checksum difference value calculated using a pre-translated value and a translated value of the predetermined field which is translated by the translating means; and a rewriting means for rewriting the value of the checksum field in the header in the packet in which the predetermined field value has been translated by the translating means, to a new value, using the difference value stored in the difference value storing means.

Abstract: Disclosed is a printing sheet comprising(a) a support, and(b) a surface layer provided on at least one side surface of the support, the surface layer containing at least one compound selected from the group consisting of n-butyl (meth)acrylate based polymers, phenyl (meth)acrylate based homopolymer and copolymers, benzyl (meth)acrylate based homopolymers and copolymers, styrene based homopolymers and copolymers, cinnamic acid, and cinnamic acid derivatives. The printing sheets have improved printability.

Abstract: Electrophotographic photosensitive element using zinc oxide in a photosensitive layer thereof formed in conductive support are described. Zinc oxide is used in combination with polycarbonate binder and a compound of the specific type. The compound is represented by the formula ##STR1## in which R.sub.1, R.sub.2, R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 independently represent a hydrogen atom, a substituted or unsubstituted alkyl group, a cycloalkyl group, an alkenyl group, or an aryl group, R.sub.5 and R.sub.6 independently represent a hydrogen atom, a substituted or unsubstituted alkyl group, a cycloalkyl group, an alkenyl group, a cycloalkenyl group, or an aryl group, R.sub.7, R.sub.8, R.sub.9 and R.sub.10 independently represent a hydrogen atom, a hydroxyl group, a substituted or unsubstituted alkyl group, a cycloalkyl group, an alkenyl group, an aryl group, an alkoxy group or an amino group. Optionally, R.sub.5 and R.sub.6 may jointly form a saturated or unsaturated hydrocarbon ring having from 3 to 10 carbon atoms.
