An optical-information transmitting, lighting apparatus 2 is installed in a place where a lighting apparatus of the existing type for applying light generally used is provided. The lighting apparatus 2 comprises an illumination light source 4 for applying light and an information-transmitting unit 5 for transmitting optical information. A person who may receive information from the lighting apparatus 2 has a mobile terminal 3, which receives the optical information transmitted from the information-transmitting unit 5. Since the lighting apparatus of the existing type is widely used in our living space. Hence, the optical-information transmitting, lighting apparatus 2 can convert every place where an existing type lighting apparatus is used, into an optical communications space.

The multiprocessor system includes multiple cells having identical functions, and each of the multiple cells has a processor, a cache memory, and a main memory. The multiple cells include the first cell as a request cell, the second cell as a home cell, and the third cell as an owner cell. The latest version of the target data stored in the main memory of the second cell is stored in the cache memory of the third cell. When the first cell issues a read request for the target data to the second cell, the second cell issues a snoop request to the third cell in response to the read request. The third cell directly transmits the target data to the first cell in response to the snoop request. Also, the third cell issues the reply write back to the second cell in response to the snoop request. The first cell issues a request write back to the same address as that of the target data in the second cell. The second cell discards the reply write back when the reply write back from the third cell is received later than the request write back from the first cell.

An entertainment is provided in which a limited number of persons can share images through a peer-to-peer network, and a device is provided for allowing anyone to easily get a print having a desired finish quality at the nearest lab store with no uploading procedure. A peer-to-peer server enters a closed user group (CUG) and issues a password necessary for login to the CUG. It is possible to share an image between client terminals having the same password through peer-to-peer connection. It is possible to directly transmit the shared image to an order-accepting server of the nearest lab store through peer-to-peer connection and print the image. Moreover, when a user designates an image-processing condition on a client terminal, the information on the condition is sent to and managed by a client-managing server. The lab that receives a print order extracts the favorite information of the client concerned from the client-managing server and provides a print having the desired finish quality.

A recording apparatus includes a platen that guides a sheet, restraining members disposed on the platen at respective side edges of the sheet to restrain the side edges of the sheet from being raised, a sheet width detector that detects the width of the sheet, and a restraining member detector that detects the positions of the restraining members. At least one of the restraining members is moved in accordance with the information obtained by the sheet width detector regarding the positions of the side edges of the sheet and the information obtained by the restraining position detector regarding the positions of the restraining members.

A plurality of vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser devices each having a different lasing wavelength are arrayed by a simple structure and a manufacturing process without increasing device resistance. Each vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser device comprises a layered structure including an active layer and a current confinement layer. The area of current confinement portion in the laminate structures is set corresponding to a wavelength of laser light emitted from each vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser device. Thereby, the plurality of vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser devices emits laser light with different lasing wavelengths.

A thermoacoustic device 1 is provided which has in a loop tube 2, a first stack 3a provided between a first high-temperature side heat exchanger 4 and a first low-temperature side heat exchanger 5, and a second stack 3b provided between a second high-temperature side heat exchanger 6 and a second low-temperature side heat exchanger 7, so that heat at the first stack side is prevented from being transported to the second stack side even when a large acoustic wave is generated in the tube. In the above device, self-excited standing and traveling waves are generated by heating the first high-temperature side heat exchanger 4, and by the standing and traveling waves, the second low-temperature side heat exchanger 7 is cooled. As a heat transportation suppression means 80 which suppresses heat transportation from the first stack 3a to the second stack 3b side, a piezoelectric film 81, an acoustic wave generator 82, or a Helmholtz resonator 83 is provided to suppress an acoustic streaming and/or a direct-current type flow, such as convection, of a working fluid.

In a thermoacoustic apparatus including a loop tube, a standing wave and a traveling wave are generated rapidly and, thereby, heat exchange is performed rapidly and efficiently. The thermoacoustic apparatus includes a first stack 3a sandwiched between a first high-temperature-side heat exchanger 4 and a first low-temperature-side heat exchanger 5 and a second stack 3b sandwiched between a second high-temperature-side heat exchanger 6 and a second low-temperature-side heat exchanger 7 in the inside of a loop tube 2. An acoustic wave is generated through self excitation by heating the first high-temperature-side heat exchanger 4, and the second low-temperature-side heat exchanger 7 is cooled by a standing wave and a traveling wave. The loop tube is configured to include a plurality of linear tube portions 2a along the vertical direction and connection tube portions 2b shorter than the linear tube portions 2a, and the first stack 3a is disposed in the longest linear tube portion 2a.
