摘要:
A computer having a main memory for storing a plurality of data, a cache memory for temporarily storing a portion of the plurality of data, a processor for accessing data stored in the cache memory and processing the data according to instructions. The processor has an access instruction combined with a preload instruction, and an access instruction only for accessing data, and includes indicator circuitry for indicating a preload condition to the cache memory when the processor accesses data from the cache memory according to the access instruction combined with the preload instruction. The cache memory preloads data to be accessed next by the processor from the main memory when the processor indicates the preload condition.

A passenger conveyor includes a platform floor having a slanting portion. A length of the slanting portion is not less than a length of each of treadboards of the passenger conveyor, and at least one of the treadboards of an advance side, when passing under the platform floor, is disposed horizontally beneath the slanting portion. With this arrangement, a push cart or the like can be smoothly moved from the treadboard to the platform floor.

According to an assigning method and its apparatus having a resource use recording section for recording a use state of a resource necessary for executing given operations, a functional unit possession recording section for recording information representing an inexecution functional unit, and an operator information management section for storing an operation executable by each functional unit and a clock count necessary for executing the operation, in order to assign an operation selected from the operations (by the operation selection step) to an optimal functional unit, the use state of the resource is checked from the resource use recording section (with reference to the usable resource decision step), the operation executable functional unit is found from the operation unit possession recording section (by the operation assignable unit decision step). A clock count necessary for executing the operation in the executable functional unit is considered with reference to the operator information management section. The optimal functional unit to be assigned with the selected operation is selected and decided (finally by the functional unit selection step), thereby performing an effective operation assigning process.

A solid-state photo sensor device includes a first electrode layer for allowing light to pass therethrough, a first amorphous silicon layer of one conductivity type formed below the first electrode layer, a second amorphous silicon layer of a conductivity type, other than the one conductivity type, disposed below the first amorphous silicon layer, and an output circuit for delivering in the form of an electric current photocarriers excited at least in the second amorphous silicon layer. The first and second amorphous silicon layers each contain inpurity elements whose concentration ranges from about 0 molPPM to 200 molPPM. The output circuit delivers as an electric current also photocarriers excited in the first amorphous silicon layer.

A wideband tuner for television signals in the VHF, CATV and UHF bands comprises a VHF tuning section coupled to a VHF receiving terminal, a CATV tuning section coupled to a CATV receiving terminal and a UHF tuning section. A switch selectively couples the UHF section to the output of the CATV tuning section or signals from a UHF receiving terminal. Each of the CATV and UHF tuning sections includes a differential mode modulator. In the CATV reception mode, the modulator of the CATV section converts the received CATV signal on an upper-side band differential mode to a UHF frequency, while the modulator of the UHF section converts the UHF frequency CATV signal to the standard intermediate frequency in a lower-side band differential mode. In the UHF reception mode, the UHF section modulator converts the UHF signal in an upper-side band differential mode to the standard intermediate frequency, while the CATV section is disabled.

There is disclosed a machine tool, of the type having a tool magazine for receiving tools therein, and wherein a spindle head is moved in the direction of the axis of a spindle relative to the tool magazine such that one of the tools in the tool magazine is engaged with or disengaged from the spindle. A draw bar for firmly attaching a tool to the spindle is positioned inside of the spindle. The operation of the draw bar is actuated by the movement of the spindle head relative to the tool magazine.
