Abstract: A method for manufacturing a projection weld joint according to an aspect of the present invention includes: a first energizing step of energizing a steel sheet and a steel member so as to form a plurality of joint portions by projection welding a steel member to a first surface of a steel sheet that is a non-coated steel sheet or a zinc-type-coated steel sheet, in which the steel sheet has a tensile strength of 1.5 GPa or more, and the steel sheet has a Ceq of 0.30 mass % or more, and the manufacturing method further includes: a cooling step of quenching each of the plurality of joint portions; and a second energizing step of further energizing the steel sheet and the steel member so as to temper an end region in each of the plurality of joint portions.

Abstract: A monitor control system comprises an interrupt processor for executing regular monitor processing by a periodic interrupt occurring at a predetermined time interval, and a background processor for executing background processing, wherein when interruption occurs, execution of the background processing by the background processor is interrupted while regular monitor processing is executed during a period in which background processing is interrupted. The time-consuming background processing is treated as a low-level processing task, and the regular monitor processing, as a high-level processing task. The low-level processing task is executed as a background processing during CPU idle time. Interruption of the background processing occurs ever 10-msec, during which the high-level processing task is executed. Accordingly, background processing and regular monitor processing are smoothly executed, and the CPU is thereby efficiently used.
