Inventor: TANAKA SHINICHI
IPC: G11B20/10
Filed: 1993-10-15
Abstract: ID codes are given individually to each information
carrier reproducing apparatus. Each information carrier (1)
has a subsidiary storing area (18, 3, 17) for recording
reproduction-management-information (RMI) and ID codes can
be registered in this area. When the ID code of a
reproducing apparatus is registered, that reproducing
apparatus becomes permitted to reproduce main information
from the information carrier. When the reproducing
apparatus of which the ID code is not registered tries to
reproduce the main information from the information
carrier, the ID code of the reproducing apparatus itself is
registered in the RMI of the information carrier and the
main information is not reproduced. The number of ID codes
permitted for registration in the RMI is restricted. When
the area in the RMI for requesting the ID code is fully
occupied, the main information cannot be reproduced from
the information carrier by the reproducing apparatus of
which the ID codes are not registered. When the reproducing
apparatus digitally copy the main information reproduced
from the information carrier where the ID code of the
reproducing apparatus is registered, the ID code of the
reproducing apparatus is registered in the information
carrier of the copy destination. An initializing apparatus
for initializing the RMI in the information carrier
accumulates the total number of the ID codes registrable in
the RMIs of the information carriers initialized by the
initializing apparatus. This system may be used to prevent
the unauthorised re-coding of copyright material and/or to
record the instances of copying so that an appropriate
royalty fee can be charged.

Abstract: A human presence detection system (50) that employs a frame
differencing technique for subtracting out background interference from images
generated by the system. The system (50) includes an infrared source (28) that
generates a beam of infrared radiation, and an infrared detector (72) that
receives infrared radiation reflected from objects in the path of the beam. Face
recognition software is employed to determine the presence of a person (16)
from the reflected radiation. The infrared source (28) is pulsed on and off and
the detector (72) is synchronously shuttered to the pulses so that image frames
are generated at different times, where one frame includes reflected radiation
and background radiation and another frame includes only background radiation.
The frames are subtracted to separate out the background radiation.

Abstract: Glucosamine salts are effective for the inhibition of
neutrophil functions, and hence, are useful for the prevention
and/or treatment of diseases, caused as a result of an excessive
extracellular release of active oxygen and antibiotic proteins
by neutrophils, such as respiratory disease syndrome and adult
respiratory disease syndrome. Use of glucosamine salts can,
therefore, provide neutrophil function inhibitors,
preventives and/or remedies for diseases caused as a result of
an excessive extracellular release of active oxygen and
antibiotic proteins by neutrophils, and also methods for the
prevention and/or treatment of such diseases.

Abstract: The invention relates to a project management system and

is corrected based on the process correction condition,
the variation amount in each of processes based on
the process correction condition is calculated as the probability
distribution using the probability distribution
data generated by obtaining the probability distrubtion
from the variation-amount prediction value of each of the
processes. Thereby, the influence degree on other processes
when the process is corrected can be estimated not simply
as the propagation of the variation fixed value but so as
to be more suited to the actual circumstances in accordance
with the attribute information and the past variation patterns
of the process.
