When disagreement in a state of access to an external bus among the respective processors in each computing module is detected, if no fault is detected in the system including the respective computing modules, an interruption is notified to all of said processors. Synchronization among each computing module is recovered by adjusting timing of a response to an access which each processor executes by an interruption.

    摘要: A liquidometer composed of a siphon for emitting a sample liquid stored in a reservoir and a liquid level sensor for sensing the level of the sample remained in the reservoir. The siphon further includes a pair of sensors for counting the number of emission thereof, while the liquid level sensor includes two rows of resistive film with a plurality of sensing elements embedded therein. Outside the liquidometer, there are provided a counter connected to the emission sensor, a level calculator connected to the liquid level sensor, and a calculator coupled to both. A gross amount of the sample liquid having been measured for a period of hours is obtained by adding together a count signal from the counter which represents the quantity of the sample liquid fully stored in the reservoir and a signal from the level counter which represents the liquid level of the remaining sample liquid. Moreover, variations in the quantity of the sample for a predetermined period is computed by the calculator in response to its internal clock.

    摘要: An information processing system capable of dynamic CPU replacement regardless of the function of OS, and a method and a program for controlling the same. The information processing system comprises an information processor and a service processor. The service processor instructs MMCs of all cell boards in a partition that includes a cell board to be removed and an MMC of a replacement cell board to be incorporated to copy data from a memory of the cell board to be removed to a memory of the replacement cell board. Besides, when receiving a write instruction during the copying operation, the MMCs write the same data written to the cell board subject to replacement also to the memory of the replacement cell board. After the copying operation has been finished, the operations of CPUs in the partition are forcefully suspended. Subsequently, the service processor instructs BIOS to copy inside information of the CPU in the cell board subject to replacement into the CPU in the replacement cell board. When the copying operation has been finished, the service processor swaps information on the cell board subject to replacement for information on the replacement cell board, which concern OS control such as logical IDs stored outside the CPUs. Thus, the OS recognizes the replacement cell board as the replaced cell board.

The signal processor essentially includes a low-pass filter circuit (11) for passing on only a DC component of an input signal (Vin) received from a pyroelectric infrared sensor (1), and a differential amplifier circuit (21) arranged to amplify only an AC component of the input signal (Vin) on the basis of a DC signal (VDC) passed through the low-pass filter circuit (11) and the input signal (Vin) received from the pyroelectric infrared sensor(1). Along with the input signal (Vin) from the pyroelectric infrared sensor, the differential amplifier circuit (21) is supplied with the DC signal (VDC) which is a DC component of the input signal (Vin) which has been passed through the low-pass filter circuit. The differential amplifier circuit (21) operates to amplify a differential signal (Vin-VDC), producing at its output terminal an output voltage Vout having only an AC component (VAC) of the input signal amplified at an amplification factor .alpha. as determined by settings of resistance values.

    摘要: A liquid level sensor for detecting a level of an electrolyte where: a pair of resistance films are formed on an insulating substrate: a plurality of electrodes are intermittently mounted on the resistance films in the longitudinal direction; the resistance films are soaked in the electrolyte in the vertical direction along the longitudinal direction; the liquid surface is detected from the variation of the resistance value of the resistance films caused by the short-circuiting of pairs of the electrodes in the electrolyte. The exposed surface of the resistance film is covered by a moisture-resistance film. The result is that undesirable change of resistance value of the resistance film caused by being moistened can be reliably prevented.
