  • Patent number: 9663396
    Abstract: A glass sheet has one surface and the other surface facing the one surface in a thickness direction, wherein a fluorine concentration (average fluorine concentration by SIMS at a depth of 1 to 24 ?m) in the one surface is higher than that in the other surface. The following expression is satisfied: 0.07??F/?H2O. ?F (mol %) is a value obtained by subtracting an average fluorine concentration in the surface having the lower fluorine concentration from that in the surface having the higher fluorine concentration, and ?H2O (mol %) is an absolute value of a value obtained by subtracting an average H2O concentration in the surface having the higher fluorine concentration from that in the surface having the lower fluorine concentration.

  • Patent number: 9635193
    Abstract: Provided is a document reading device that can cause an image processing part to execute automatically image processing operations corresponding to respective plural functions, depending on a document mounting condition on a platen without performing a setting operation on a panel part. A system control part causes a document detection sensor to detect a part (periphery) of the document. The image processing operations corresponding to respective plural functions are made on image data of the document read by a scanner part. Further, when the platen cover plate open-close detection sensor detects that the platen cover plate is closed, the image processing part is allowed to execute a function that is assigned to the document detection part that has read the document.

  • Publication number: 20100325726
    Abstract: It is possible to provide an unauthorized operation monitoring program for calculating a modified score by reflecting a suspicious value determined from a series of operations by a user who operates a computer in order to monitor an unauthorized operation on the computer. When a modified score that indicates probability of an unauthorized operation is calculated for an object event, a suspicious value (PSV) corresponding to the level of the calculated modified score is set. When a new event occurs next time, for the score (direct score) calculated for the new event, a modified score reflecting the PSV set for the previous event and a time difference between the previous event and the new event is calculated. When operations that the probability of the unauthorized operation is high are continuously performed, or when operations of which the suspicious value is high are repeated, a higher level of a modified score is calculated.
