Abstract:
An authentication system includes a storage unit that stores a service expiration date of a service provided by a client; a reception unit that receives from the client a request to issue an access token used to authorize use of the service; an issuing unit that issues, in response to the reception of the request, the access token based on the service expiration date to the client; and a determining unit that, in response to the issued access token transmitted by the client, determines that the access token is valid if the current date and time does not exceed the service expiration date of the service, or determines that the access token is not valid if the current date and time exceeds the service expiration date.
Abstract:
A semiconductor device having an electromagnetic wave shielding layer can be manufactured without decreasing productivity. The present invention provides a die bond film including an adhesive layer and an electromagnetic wave shielding layer made of a metal foil or a die bond film including an adhesive layer and an electromagnetic wave shielding layer formed by vapor deposition.
Abstract:

Abstract:
Complicated adjustment, such as adjusting hue and saturation by varying value for each hue in which hue correction and saturation correction are performed on only an input having a specific value of a specific color component, is performed. In a color space including hue Hi, saturation Si, and value Vi, calculating a hue correction value HVh and a saturation correction value HVs by using the hue Hi and the value Vi as parameters allows the hue correction and the saturation correction to be performed based on the value and completely independently for hue axes of the hue. The correction value calculating circuit scale has no influence on the complexity of the correction. It is possible to calculate the correction values by a certain circuit scale no matter how complicated the correction is.
Abstract:
A method for controlling a structure of a nano-scale substance may include irradiating a mixture of low-dimensional quantum structures having a nano-scale with an electromagnetic wave in an oxygen atmosphere, to thereby selectively oxidize a low-dimensional quantum structure having a density of states resonating with the electromagnetic wave used for the irradiation. The method allows a low-dimensional quantum structure having a specific structure to be selectively removed from the mixture of low-dimensional quantum structures having a nano-scale.
Abstract:
Disclosed are an apparatus and a method for extracting circumscribed rectangles of one or more characters in a transplantable electronic document. The apparatus comprises a command and resource extraction device for extracting text-segment-related commands and original font resources; a division device for dividing the original font resources into fonts; a font replacement device for seeking fonts, and obtaining font resources after font replacement; a measurement information extraction device for extracting character shape measurement information of the characters; and a calculation device for calculating the circumscribed rectangles of the characters.
Abstract:
The invention provides methods for identifying an agent which prevents or partially prevents an antitoxin from forming a complex with its cognate toxin, comprising contacting a potential agent with a labeled substrate in solution, whereby detection of the label indicates presence of an agent that prevents an antitoxin from forming complex with a toxin. The invention also provides agents capable of interfering with formation of a toxin-antitoxin complex. Such agents act as novel, non-conventional antibiotics against human pathogenic bacteria.
Abstract:
An electrical device includes a device body and a conversion plug. An AC plug is connected to an outlet with the conversion plug being detached. The conversion plug is connected to an outlet with a different shape with the conversion plug being connected to the AC plug. The AC plug includes an insulating pivot mount that has a pair of plug blades and is connected to the device body. The insulating pivot mount of the AC plug is provided with a retaining recessed portion that opens on the surface side of the device body. The conversion plug includes a retaining hook that is retained to the retaining recessed portion disposed in the insulating pivot mount of the AC plug. The conversion plug is connected to the device body via the AC plug in a state where the retaining hook is retained to the retaining recessed portion, and the plug blades are inserted into plug insertion portions.
Abstract:
An information processing apparatus has a document element storing part configured to store a document in a document element storage part for each document element of the document, a comment input part configured to input a comment corresponding to the document element to a comment storing part, and the comment storing part configured to store the comment input by the comment input part corresponding to the document element in a comment storage part in such a manner that the comment is identified as the comment associated with the document element.
