摘要:
The process speed and the power efficiency are improved while accomplishing downsizing by configuring an integrated hard-wired logic controller by a hard-wired logic, and a function modification is enabled by a patch circuit without re-designing of the integrated hard-wired logic controller itself by high-level synthesis even when the function modification becomes necessary because of a specification change and a false design after the production. The costs can be reduced by what corresponds to the unnecessity of re-designing. Therefore, an accelerator is provided which can improve the process speed and the power efficiency while accomplishing downsizing, and which can remarkably reduce the costs for the function modification after the production.

A battery system is provided that can prevent overcharging during charging, and that can demonstrate appropriate charging performance and output performance of a secondary battery even when the battery system is used in a low-temperature environment. The battery system includes a secondary battery and a protection circuit. The protection circuit includes a bypass electrical path that connects an upstream-side main electrical path that is connected to a positive terminal of the secondary battery to a downstream-side main electrical path that is connected to a negative terminal of the secondary battery. The battery system is configured so that, when the voltage of the secondary battery exceeds a predetermined voltage during charging, current flowing through the secondary battery decreases while current flowing through the bypass electrical path increases, and when the voltage of the secondary battery falls below the predetermined voltage during charging, the current flowing through the secondary battery increases while the current flowing through the bypass electrical path decreases. The bypass electrical path includes a heater that generates heat using the current flowing through the bypass electrical path, and the heater is arranged adjacent to or in close contact with the secondary battery so as to impart a thermal effect to the secondary battery.

Based on, for example, the image at the start of a movie, a thumbnail image is tentatively generated and is stored in a header file. If a predetermined triggering condition is fulfilled during movie shooting, a thumbnail image is generated from the frame image at the timing that the triggering condition is fulfilled, and the thumbnail image existing in the header file is replaced with the newly generated thumbnail image. The triggering condition is fulfilled, for example, if, after zooming-in, the angle of view has been kept fixed for a predetermined period or longer, or if the focus has been kept locked for a predetermined period.

摘要:
A vehicle-mounted malfunction notification apparatus having a communication malfunction notification unit that notifies a vehicle operator of a communications malfunction when a malfunction occurring in a communications device persists for a specified period of time, includes a maintenance operation checking unit and a maintenance operation processing unit. The maintenance operation checking unit determines whether a maintenance operation for the communications device is being performed. The maintenance operation processing unit notifies the vehicle operator that the maintenance operation is being performed when the maintenance operation checking unit determines that the maintenance operation is being performed.

A semiconductor light-emitting device includes: a first semiconductor layer; a light-emitting layer being disposed on the first semiconductor layer; a second semiconductor layer being disposed on the light-emitting layer, and metal electrodes connected to the first semiconductor layer and the second semiconductor layer. The light-emitting layer is lower in refractive index than the first semiconductor layer. The second semiconductor layer is lower in refractive index than the light-emitting layer. The metal electrodes supply a current to the light-emitting layer.

Back pressure is applied to a liquid fuel stored in a fuel storage unit by a pressure application unit, and a liquid fuel vaporization membrane that vaporizes the liquid fuel to thereby supply the vaporized fuel gas to an anode is formed by a nonporous membrane. Backed by this, the liquid fuel can be prevented from leaking out to the anode, so that the concentration of the liquid fuel can be increased to an optimum level.

A direct methanol type fuel cell is provided with a generated gas ejection part having a bundle made up of hollow fiber membranes extending between a fuel electrode and a liquid fuel vaporizing layer that vaporizes a methanol aqueous solution and supplies methanol gas to the fuel electrode. The hollow fiber membranes selectively pass carbon dioxide within a mixture gas that includes methanol, the carbon dioxide generated at the fuel electrode and the like, and eject the carbon dioxide via end portions of the hollow fiber membranes that open at a side surface of the fuel cell via hollow portions. The fuel cell has a high carbon dioxide ejection capability, and suppresses leak of methanol gas. A pressure applying part may be provided to apply a back pressure to the methanol aqueous solution within a fuel storage part, so as to further improve the carbon dioxide ejection capability.

A promotion method and a system which can realize thoughtful promotion by facilitating changing settings such as the number of points issued for each commodity, a promotion period and the like without the necessity for changing settings of target automatic vending machines all at once. A commodity code peculiar to each commodity is added to point information, and a data center selectively adds the number of points of the point information of the specific commodity on the basis of the commodity code.
