Abstract: A substantially enriched mammalian hematopoietic cell population is provided, which is characterized as a progenitor cell committed to the megakaryocyte lineage. Methods are provided for the isolation and culture of these cells. The cell enrichment methods employ reagents that specifically recognize CD9 and CD41, in conjunction with other markers expressed on lineage committed progenitor cells. These cells give rise exclusively to megakaryocytes and platelets, as evidenced by their growth and differentiation in vitro and in vivo.

Abstract: A memory device includes a single or a plurality of memory chips. In the memory device (memory module), the single memory chip or each of the plurality of memory chips has a memory part storing control data such as specification data and function data, and control data stored on the memory part is rewritable. Control data stored on the memory part separately disposed on each memory chip enables separate use of the memory chip, which improves compatibility and flexibility of the memory.

Abstract: A memory device having a single or a plurality of memory chips includes a memory part (control register, SPD memory unit) inside each memory chip, which memory part stores control data concerning the memory chip. The memory device enables writing-in or readout of the control data stored on the memory part to be able to set any desired control data for each memory chip, and, when the memory device has the plurality of memory chips, enables separate use of each of the memory chips.

Abstract: A memory device (memory module) having one or a plurality of memory chips is disclosed. By including in a memory chip an error generation part to generate an error, an error is generated in a specific area of a memory in accordance with an address specification, thereby confirmation of an ECC function is facilitated. The error generation part includes an error code generation part that generates an error code. The memory chip is configured by one or a plurality of memory matrixes.

Abstract: A plurality of frame data are extracted from a moving image file included in at least one image file recorded in a recording device. In a case where a moving image file is selected from the image file, the extracted plurality of frame data are displayed on a display device, and in a case where a still image file is selected from the image file, the still image file is displayed on the display device.

Abstract: A data processing apparatus stores continuous area management information which associates head position information of each continuous area on the storage medium with a continuous size thereof. The data processing apparatus specifies position information of a data read position corresponding to a specific position with reference to the continuous area management information in response to a data read request from the specific position in information data, and reads out some or all of the information data from a read position on the storage medium corresponding to the specified position information.

Abstract: A substantially enriched mammalian hematopoietic cell subpopulation is provided, which is characterized by progenitor cell activity for myeloid lineages, but lacking the potential to differentiate into lymphoid lineages. This population is further divided into specific myeloid progenitor subsets, including a common myeloid progenitor cells (CMP), megakaryocyte/erythroid progenitor cells (MEP) and granulocyte/monocyte lineage progenitor (GMP). Methods are provided for the isolation and culture of these subpopulations. The CMP population gives rise to all myeloid lineages, and can give rise to the two additional and isolatable progenitor populations that are exclusively committed to either the erythroid/megakaryocytic or myelomonocytic lineages.

Abstract: According to an image processing apparatus of the present invention, a plurality of frame data are extracted from a moving image file included in at least one image file recorded in a recording device. In a case where a moving image file is selected from the image file, the extracted plurality of frame data are displayed on a display device, and in a case where a still image file is selected from the image file, the still image file is displayed on the display device.

Abstract: A signal control circuit for controlling a signal to be outputted from a signal processing circuit 11, of which a rise and a fall are repeated, includes pattern generation unit 20 for generating pattern information representing a certain pattern, and signal waveform adjusting unit (Q1, Q2, Q3, Q6) for changing at least one of rise time and fall time of the signal to be outputted from the signal processing circuit 11 in accordance with the pattern represented by the pattern information.

The data processing apparatus specifies position information of a data read position corresponding to a specific position with reference to the continuous area management information in response to a data read request from the specific position in information data, and reads out some or all of the information data from a read position on the storage medium corresponding to the specified position information.

Abstract: A data recording apparatus, which is capable of acquiring and recording data according to the residual capacity of the battery when the residual capacity is small. A recording operation is carried out such that acquired information data is temporarily written onto the memory and thereafter the information data is transferred to a recording medium to record the information data. The data recording speed of the recording medium is detected. The residual capacity of the battery is detected. The expected driving time period for which the data recording apparatus can be driven is detected, based on the detected residual capacity. The quantity of data recordable on the recording medium is calculated based on the detected data recording speed and the detected expected driving time period. The size of data to be written onto the memory is changed based on the detected recordable quantity of data.
