Abstract: There is provided an automatic analyzer including: a sample pipetting mechanism 7, reagent pipetting mechanisms 12A and 12B, mixing mechanisms 33A and 33B, a scattered light photometer 40, and an absorption photometer 41 all located on a transfer path of reaction cells 2 arranged circumferentially on a disk-shaped reaction disk 1, the reaction cells 2 being transferred in the circumferential direction by rotation of the reaction disk 1. Scattered light intensity and absorbance are controlled to be measured by causing the reaction cells 2 to move past a scattered light detection position and a transmitted light detection position in the same process of movement, the two positions being established beforehand on the transfer path. This makes it possible to suppress the effects on measurement results of the difference in time between scattered light measurement and absorbance measurement thereby improving measurement accuracy.

Abstract: An automatic analyzer which can reduce the effort necessary for conducting a test of limit of detection/limit of quantification properties and managing the test results is provided. Operation condition-setting means for conducting an evaluation test for at least one of a limit of detection and a limit of quantification for each measurement item, determination condition-setting means for setting a determination condition of the evaluation test, and a calculation unit for obtaining a measurement result of a dilution series containing different dilution concentrations by controlling the sample-dispensing mechanism, the reagent-dispensing mechanism and the measurement unit based on the set operation condition, and calculating a test result of the evaluation test from the measurement result of the dilution series based on the set determination condition are disposed.

Abstract: There is provided a processing apparatus and an optical member manufacturing method that can improve the figure accuracy and the waviness accuracy, and can highly and precisely process an optical element surface. A processing apparatus generates a pressure between a polishing member and a workpiece and relatively moves the polishing member and the workpiece to process a workpiece. The processing apparatus includes a support member that can perform oscillating movement, and a processing portion that is rotatably attached to the support member. The processing portion includes one or more pressure generation units to generate different pressures between the polishing member and the workpiece.

Abstract: A light source radiates light onto a reaction vessel in which a sample is caused to react with a reagent. A transmissive-light receiver, located across from the light source with the reaction vessel located therebetween, measures the intensity of transmissive light passing through the reaction vessel. Scattered-light receivers, located on the side of the transmissive-light receiver, are used to measure the intensities of scattered light and scattered light generated from the reaction vessel. Based on the results of the measurement by the scattered-light receivers, the light intensity of the light source is corrected. This allows correction of the intensity of the light incident on the reaction vessel even when an analysis involves the use of scattered light. The use of such analyzers prevents analysis results from varying from analyzer to analyzer due to inaccurate measurement of the incident light.

Abstract: A mobile device comprises at least a program starter, a communication controller, a display controller, a display portion, and an instruction portion. The mobile device receives report information that is emitted in a predetermined period by a guidance information terminal upon entering the communication area of the guidance information terminal in a state where a guidance information display application has been started by the program starter. The mobile device causes the display portion to display a dialog screen for issuing an instruction with regard to whether to acquire guidance information by means of the display controller upon reception of the report information. When the acquisition of guidance information has been instructed by the instruction portion, the mobile device issues a request to the guidance information terminal to transmit the guidance information by means of the communication controller and receives the guidance information.

Abstract: A memory system having a main memory which is coupled to a plurality of parallel virtual access channels. Each of the virtual access channels provides a set of memory access resources for controlling the main memory. These memory access resources include cache resources (including cache chaining), burst mode operation control and precharge operation control. A plurality of the virtual access channels are cacheable virtual access channels, each of which includes a channel row cache memory for storing one or more cache entries and a channel row address register for storing corresponding cache address entries. One or more non-cacheable virtual access channels are provided by a bus bypass circuit. Each virtual access channel is addressable, such that particular memory masters can be assigned to access particular virtual access channels.
