摘要:
The present invention is to be capable of inhibiting the occurrence of an instance where the enjoyment of a player who plays with the game apparatus by the total event is decreased when a single total event is carried out among two or more game apparatuses.The present game system includes: two or more game apparatuses, each of which comprises a game progress control unit for performing game progress control; and an event processing apparatus for performing a process for carrying out a single total event at the same timing by the plurality of game apparatuses. The event processing apparatus and each game apparatus are connected in a manner to enable communication. The event processing apparatus comprises: an event timing determining unit for determining an event timing at which the total event is carried out according to a predetermined event timing determining condition; and a control command transmitting unit for transmitting to each game apparatus an event control command used for carrying out the total event at the event timing determined by the event timing determining unit. The game progress control unit of each game apparatus performs the game progress control so that at the event timing relating to the event control command from the event processing apparatus, a game progress situation of each game apparatus is caused to be a previously set situation where the total event can be carried out.

A storage system including a maintenance terminal, at least one disk drive, and a plurality of volumes that are provided by the at least one disk drive, and each store therein data written by the plurality of host devices. In this storage system, the maintenance terminal sets information for use to measure the performance of the storage device, and the storage device acquires the set information, measures the performance of the storage device with respect to the data stored in the plurality of volumes based on the information, and transmits, to the maintenance terminal, performance information about the performance being a measurement result. The storage system as such can collect information about the performance of a storage device that is not measurable from the side of the host devices, and a method for collecting such performance information can be provided.
摘要:
A storage system and a backup method achieving enhanced reliability without degradation in the performance of the entire system. A first storage apparatus stores data transmitted from a host system and transmits it to a second storage apparatus and a third storage apparatus. The second storage apparatus and the third storage apparatus store the data transmitted from the first storage apparatus and verify the consistency in the data between themselves.

In a random number selector using a selection ball, a first selector is provided with a passage and a plurality first pockets each associated with a symbol and operable to receive the selection ball. A second selector is provided with a plurality of second pockets each associated with a jackpot and operable to receive the selection ball. A guide member guides the selection ball which has been passed through the passage in the first selector to the second selector. In a bingo game machine, a first bingo game using only the first selector and a second bingo game using both of the first selector and the second selector are performed.

There are disclosed a method of delivering pictorial image data per each color obtained by applying color resolution to a manuscript using a color scanner to a sublimation transfer printer to effect a transfer from a sublimation transfer sheet to an image-receiving sheet, thus to make a hard copy of a color image, and a device for implementing such a method. The image data comprises three primary data of cyan, magenta and yellow and black data calculated from the three primary data. Data obtained by applying color and gradation corrections to the four color data are delivered to the sublimation transfer printer. The sublimation transfer sheet is provided with a transfer ink layer of four colors of cyan, magenta, yellow and black. By the operation of the sublimation transfer printer, the ink of each transfer ink layer is transferred onto the image-receiving paper, thus to make a hard copy.
摘要:
An information extraction device including a coordinate transformation unit for transforming the coordinate values of points on a plane in question to the coordinate values of the points on a spherical surface corresponding to the points on the plane, and a mapping unit for mapping the points on the spherical surface to great circles. This information extraction device is applicable to the detection of the three-dimensional direction of a single line or a single plane existing in space.
摘要:
A flash unit triggering arrangement that cooperates with a shutter control mechanism or circuit of a camera for permitting the firing of a flash lamp of the flash unit in a time period during which the entire area of a film aperture of the camera remains unblocked to thereby avoid flash exposure of only a part of the film.
摘要:
A photographic device includes means for automatic control of the quantity of light from an electronic flash by comparing the brightness of a main object to be photographed with the brightness of a sub-object to be photographed, and the shutter of the camera opens during the time in response to the brightness of a sub-object to be photographed.
摘要:
A liquid crystal display device has a power source, a voltage converter, a liquid crystal display cell and a control signal generator. The voltage supplied from the power source to the converter is converted into a voltage for operating the liquid crystal display cell and such converted voltage is supplied to the liquid crystal display cell while a control signal derived from the control signal generator is also applied to the liquid crystal display cell, thereby effecting display.
摘要:
An electrical film counter for a photographic camera is provided with a differentiating circuit responsive to a film winding operation for producing an output pulse. The number of output pulses from the differentiating circuit is counted by an UP-DOWN counter and is decoded by a decoder designed to drive an indicator which indicates the number of film frames advanced through the film gate of the camera.
