Abstract: A multicast packet readout control method is disclosed. An input multicast packet is temporarily stored in a multicast queue of a packet buffer. The multicast packet is read from the multicast queue, and converted into a unicast packet addressed to each of the destinations of the multicast packet. The converted unicast packet is stored in a unicast queue of the packet buffer. The converted unicast packet is then read from the unicast queue and transmitted to the destination.

Abstract: An image signal processing apparatus and an image display which are allowed to achieve stereoscopic image display with a more natural sense of depth are provided. The image signal processing apparatus includes: a first motion vector detection section and an information obtaining section. The first motion vector detection section detects one or more two-dimensional motion vectors as motion vectors along an X-Y plane of an image, from an image-for-left-eye and an image-for-right-eye which have a parallax therebetween. The information obtaining section obtains, based on the detected two-dimensional motion vectors, information pertaining to a Z-axis direction. The Z-axis direction is a depth direction in a stereoscopic image formed with the image-for-left-eye and the image-for-right-eye.

Abstract: An optical network unit and an optical line terminal which efficiently control the data receiving and dechurning processes in a passive optical network. In a churning parameter memory subsystem, a first memory bank stores churning parameters that are currently used, while a second memory bank stores updates made to the churning parameters. Under the control of the churning parameter memory subsystem, those first and second memory banks change their roles with each other at a churning key updating time point. A data dechurning unit receives a data stream consisting of a plurality of frames and dechurns the information contained in the data stream, according to the stored churning parameters. When an update is done to the parameters in a certain frame, the data dechurning unit makes the update effective at the next frame, thus starting data dechurning operations from the next frame.

Abstract: During the period of deceleration of a vehicle, an air conditioning control unit modifies a target cooling temperature (TEO) of an evaporator to a temperature lower than that before the deceleration by ? ° C. in order to store cold in the evaporator (step S130). When the vehicle comes to rest, the air conditioning control unit sets an upwardly-modified target temperature TEOK, which is a temperature modified toward more or less higher temperatures from the target cooling temperature TEO, and brings a compressor to rest and keeps the resting state of the compressor until a detected temperature TE of an evaporator discharge temperature sensor exceeds TEOK (step S180). Therefore, it is possible to effectively utilize the cold heat stored in the evaporator 6 during the period of deceleration of the vehicle with a good feeling of passengers being maintained while the vehicle is at rest.

Abstract: It is an object of the present invention to provide a method for enabling the detection of a trace amount of protein contained in an electrophoresis gel, which cannot visually be observed even in CBB staining capable of confirming a protein by visual observation, so as to enable the combined use of visual observation when a sample is cut off, thereby improving the reliability of analyses using a mass spectroscope or the like. The present invention provides a method for detecting a protein as a fluorescence image, which comprises staining a protein that has been electrophoresed on a gel with Coomassie Brilliant Blue and then applying excitation light having a wavelength of 600 nm or more to the protein.

Abstract: In an ATM cell multiplexer which multiplexes ATM cells outputted from a plurality of cards, sequential cell arrival numbers common to the ATM cells outputted from a plurality of cards are added to each of the cells to be written in memories, and the read side checks a sequentiality of the cell arrival numbers whereby the ATM cells are read in the order of arrival and the cell arrival number at that time is used as the cell arrival number to be checked at the next read time. Also, when any of the cards is pulled out, a card not pulled out is operated normally and an address counter of only the pulled-out card is cleared. Even when non-sequentiality of the cell arrival numbers occurs due to the clearance of the address counter, the maximum cell arrival number is set to the value which enables the oldest cells to be read first.

Abstract: A monitoring device for a machine tool, which monitors operations in work machining to increase the precision level of the work yield. To monitor a load current supplied to a machining motor in 1-cycle units, sampling points are taken at shorter intervals along the time axis of the machining in areas where the machining is complex. In areas where the machining is simple sampling points are taken at longer intervals. At each sampling point the sampling data are stored and undergo numerical processing. The load current measured value is compared to determine whether the measured value is within a range of limits determined by a standard deviation value calculated from the sampling data at each sampling point. Determination as to defective/non-defective is performed at each sampling point on the basis of the range of limits which model the shape of the work.
