Abstract: A transmission system for performing electronic business transactions and the like that simply assures the transmission order to another party as necessary, while performing distributed processing of messages received from a party. After receiving a message the system identifies the transmission source of the message. It acquires control information for selecting a line for processing the message. Using the control information, the system determines whether to select processing lines in the order the messages are received or not. In case of determining not to select processing lines in the order received, the system selects, based on the transmission source of the received message, to process the message by the same line as other messages from the same transmission source.

Abstract: An upper support for a suspension system manufactured by preparing a first intermediate product including an inner rigid member, a first outer rigid member and a first elastic body for elastically connecting the inner and first outer rigid members. The first intermediate product is then placed within a mass of a non-compressible fluid. A second elastic body and a resonance member are then assembled with the inner and first outer rigid members, so as to prepare a second intermediate product having a fluid chamber filled with the fluid and defined between the first and second elastic bodies. The second intermediate product is then removed from the mass of the non-compressible fluid, and a second outer rigid member having an attaching portion mounted, in the atmosphere on the second intermediate product.
