To clean sediments and the like trapped not only in a top layer of a sand filtration layer, but also in intermediate layers. A seawater infiltration method which uses a water infiltration intake unit which is formed in advance and provided with a water intake pipe embedded in a gravel layer which forms a deep layer of the sand filtration layer, and a backwashing pipe embedded in a sand layer which forms an intermediate layer and a surface layer of the sand filtration layer, and a water suction pipe which is disposed above the sand layer. A desired number of water infiltration intake units are combined to form a sand filtration layer at an installation site on an ocean floor, and they intake seawater from the sea which has undergone natural infiltration in the sand filtration layer and this is introduced into the water intake pipe. The seawater infiltration rate is set at less than 400 m/day. Water or air is injected from the backwashing pipe to agitate and blow upward from the surface layer living organisms or sediments trapped in intermediate layers of the sand filtration layer, and the agitated water is sucked in by a suction pipe and recovered. The seawater infiltration rate can be maintained as high as possible under 400 m/day.

A novel image forming apparatus that categorizes print job information for each newly added application and presents the print job information without categorizing data incorrectly and mixing in impersonation data. All of the applications that installed additionally extract jobs that went through itself only from trace information on jobs notified by the default functions and display it in a user interface. The trace information on jobs is a job ID association list that associates a job ID numbered by the default functions with a job ID of a job issued by the additional application.

In a noise suppression apparatus, an index setter sets an exponent K that is a positive value. A factor setter variably sets a suppression factor according to the exponent K. A noise suppressor generates an audio signal from which a noise component is suppressed through noise suppression process of suppressing a Kth power of an amplitude of the noise component at each frequency thereof in a Kth power of an amplitude of the audio signal at each frequency thereof to a degree determined according to the suppression factor set by the factor setting part. Preferably, the index setter sets the exponent K to a value less than 0.1.

In a case where an ASK method is used for a communication method between a semiconductor device and a reader/writer, the amplitude of a radio signal is changed by data transmitted from the semiconductor device to the reader/writer when data is not transmitted from the reader/writer to the semiconductor device. Therefore, in some cases, the semiconductor device mistakes data transmitted from the semiconductor device itself for data transmitted from the reader/writer to the semiconductor device. The semiconductor device includes an antenna circuit, a transmission circuit, a reception circuit, and an arithmetic processing circuit. The antenna circuit transmits and receives a radio signal. The transmission circuit outputs to the reception circuit a signal showing whether or not the antenna circuit is transmitting the radio signal.

The present invention provides a compound of formula (I) having an excellent JAK3 inhibition activity and being useful as an active ingredient of an agent for treating and/or preventing various immune diseases including autoimmune diseases inflammatory diseases, and allergic diseases. The compound according to the present invention has an inhibition activity against JAK3 and is thus useful as an active ingredient of an agent for treating or preventing diseases caused by undesirable cytokine signal transmission (e.g., rejection during organ/tissue transplantation, autoimmune diseases, multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis, asthma, atopic dermatitis, Alzheimer's disease, and atherosclerotic disease), or diseases caused by abnormal cytokine signal transmission (e.g., cancer and leukemia).
