Abstract: There is provided an information processing system including a relative-position estimation processing unit configured to estimate a relative position between an access point and a wireless client by using a cooperative position estimation method using distance information based on a signal strength between the access point and the wireless client; and an inside/outside determination processing unit configured to determine an inside/outside positional relationship between a polygonal target area formed by access points and the wireless client, in which the inside/outside determination processing unit determines whether the wireless client is present inside or outside the target area by determining a direction of vector product of the access points forming a side of the target area and a direction of vector product of the wireless client and the access point as a vertex of the polygonal area.

Abstract: A purpose is to provide a monitoring system to monitor whether there is a substance to be monitored in the air, and a detecting device used in the monitoring system. The monitoring system includes a detecting device, an analyzing device, and an abnormality notification system. The detecting device determines whether the air is in an abnormal state on the basis of an output signal from an abnormality detection sensor, pours liquid to be inspected, into which the air is sucked and liquefied, into a previously-installed reagent container when determining the abnormal state, generates mixed liquid in which a reactant in the reagent container and the poured liquid to be inspected are mixed, and drops the generated mixed liquid to an electrode of the analyzing device.

Abstract: An attachment mechanism for attaching to a wall a network device for assisting a communication device in communicating on a network includes a heat radiation member, engaged with and supporting a housing of the network device, for radiating heat from the network device, and an attachment member, engaged with the heat radiation member, for attaching to the wall the heat radiation member engaged with the housing.

Abstract: The frame disassembly unit receives the MAC frame to insert/identify a destination address and tag. The information retrieval unit retrieves the VLAN information DB to discover the tag and port which correspond to the destination address. The type determination unit determines whether the MAC frame received is unicast, multicast or broadcast. The unicast transmission control unit controls the switching device so as to transmit the MAC frame to the communication node of the destination. The multicast transmission control unit controls the switching device so as to confine within a VLAN to transmit the MAC frame by multicast or broadcast.

Abstract: A dipeptidyl peptidase IV inhibitor which is satisfactory in respect of activity, stability and safety and has an excellent action as a pharmaceutical agent. A compound represented by the following general formula or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof: wherein R1 and R2 each represents hydrogen, an optionally substituted C1-6 alkyl group, or —COOR5 whereupon R5 represents hydrogen or an optionally substituted C1-6 alkyl group, or R1, R2, and a carbon atom together represent a 3- to 6-membered cycloalkyl group, R3 represents hydrogen or an optionally substituted C6-10 aryl group, R4represents a hydrogen or a cyano group, D represents —CONR6-, —CO— or —NR6CO—, R6 represents hydrogen or an optionally substituted C1-6 alkyl group, E represents —(CH2)m— whereupon m is 1 to 3, —CH2OCH2—, or —SCH2—, n is 0 to 3, and A represents an optionally substituted bicyclic heterocyclic group or bicyclic hydrocarbon group.

Abstract: When there is an arrival of a multicast call at a VoIP terminal on a call reception side, an SLIC sends out a ringing signal to a loudspeaker IF. The loudspeaker IF, after receiving the ringing signal, enters into a state in which voice is outputted from a loudspeaker even if a user does not respond. Compressed voice data is taken out of an IP packet received from a network and extended by a DSP to become voice data. Further, the voice data is converted by a CODEC into a voice signal, which is outputted from the loudspeaker.
