Abstract: The purpose of the present invention is to implement management in a more expedient manner than heretofore in a commercial transaction involving import/export. Provided is a sales management system which, on receiving a request for salability decision from a first country for each product which has been assigned a first management information: decides the salability for a second country; responds with a second management information for the salable products to the requestor in the first country; stores the first management information in linkage with the second management information; and on the basis of the linked first management information and second management information, implements management relating to the sale of the products in the second country, involving export of a single consolidated shipment of the products, which are sold by different manufacturers and have different owners, from the first country to the second country.

Abstract: A differential type MOS transmission circuit includes a signal driving circuit and a signal receiving circuit to realize high speed transmission for a short distance transmission between different LSIs, etc. A pair of transmission lines between the signal driving circuit and the signal receiving circuit are driven by a pair of drivers in the signal driving circuit so as to take either one of three states, i.e. one state where both of the lines are in a precharged states and two states where either one of the lines is in a discharged state. A signal driving circuit includes signal generating circuits generating variations in control signals varying pulse-like in response to rise and fall of an input signal to thereby obtain the discharge state.

Abstract: A signal transmission system provides stable, fast, long-range transmission. During transmission, a short-width pulse is synchronized with rising and falling edges of a transmission pulse signal. A ternary output signal in a differential shape is produced on the basis of the pulse, and an output signal is transmitted through series resistors via a pair of transmitting wirings. During reception, a reception terminal is provided with terminal resistors corresponding to a characteristic impedance of the transmitting wirings. A signal having passed through one of the transmitting wirings is detected with reference to a signal having passed through the other transmitting wiring. A signal having passed through the other transmitting wiring is detected with reference to the signal having passed through the one transmitting wiring. Additionally, the original pulse signal is restored and reproduced on the basis of the detected signals.
