Abstract: The present invention relates to an information
processing system and an information processing apparatus
and method by which image data can be transmitted readily
from a portable terminal apparatus, with which it is not
comparatively easy to input a name, to a different
apparatus through a network so that the image data may be
managed by the different apparatus. A camcorder image
station 41 has a folder for each user of a camcorder 11
and has, in each of the folders, 10 sub folders of album
1 to album 10 to each of which a name is applied in
advance. The user of the camcorder 11 transmits images
picked up by the user himself/herself to the camcorder
image station 41 so that the images are registered into a
predetermined album. The camcorder 11 has an album list
of 10 albums of album 1 to album 10 in advance and
selects an album of one of the names from within the list
to designate an album into which image data should be
uploaded. The present invention can be applied to a
service providing system.

IPC: G01R13/34

Abstract: A circuit generates a test signal useful in verifying the actual delay values of individual delay stages in a digital delay line. In general, the cumulative delay of the delay line defines a window in time having its zero point anchored to the beginning of the delay line. Successive delay stages correspond to successive time bins within the overall time window. The test signal shifts at a known, linear rate in time with respect to a reference signal, which is used to initiate a test cycle. The reference signal synchronizes sampling of the test signal to the beginning of the time window. Samples of the test signal are taken at sample points determined by the actual time delays in the successive delay stages. The observed distribution of test signal edges across the time window may be used to determine the actual delay intervals of the delay line.

Abstract: A control method with variable feedback gain for energization of an electro-magnetically
driven intake/exhaust valve of an internal combustion engine
increases opening and closing speeds of the intake/exhaust valve driven with
electromagnets having small capacity and improves the control performance
in bringing the final speed of the opening and closing action of the valve close
to zero. According to the variable feedback gain energization control
method, a target moving speed of the armature relative to the
electromagnets is determined dependent upon a spacing distance of the
armature from the electromagnet; at least a part of energization of the
electro-magnetically driven valve is controlled through feedforward control
so as to make an actual moving speed of the armature relative to the
electromagnets in conformity with the target moving speed while at least the
other part of the energization is controlled through feedback control based
upon a deviation of the actual moving speed from the target moving speed.
And a gain of the feedback control is changed based upon a relation between
the actual moving speed and the target moving speed. The energization
control is modified through learning modification based upon the deviation
between the actual and target moving speeds and the actual value of the
final speed of opening and closing the valve.

Abstract: A heating roller (21) includes a heat generating layer (22) that generates heat by electromagnetic induction, a heat insulating layer (23), and a supporting layer (24), which are provided inwardly in this order. The heat generating layer (22) is composed of at least two layers that are a first heat generating layer of a magnetic material and a second heat generating layer of a non-magnetic material. The first heat generating layer has a specific resistance higher than a specific resistance of the second heat generating layer and a thickness larger than a thickness of the second heat generating layer. This allows the second heat generating layer to function effectively as a heat generating part that generates heat by electromagnetic induction. Thus, compared with the case where the heat generating layer (22) is formed only of a single layer of a magnetic material, heat generation efficiency is increased, thereby allowing warm-up time to be reduced. Further, the heat generating layer (22) is heated intensively, so that heat generation of the supporting layer (24) is reduced, thereby allowing the prevention of breakage of, for example, bearings supporting the heating roller (21).
