Abstract: A head lamp device (1) has a connector guide (4) which
enables a feeder connector (20) to be insertable into a socket (12), only
rotating the bulb (10) to a fixed position (FX) specified. In this
manner, a feeder connector (20) is not insertable in a socket (12) when
the bulb is not in the fixed position (FX) so that even
inexperienced operators can surely enforce the replacement of
the bulb (10), therefore, a specified light distribution can be
surely obtained.

Abstract: Multimedia applications including a video and an audio are
transmitted at respective adapted transfer rates in a server connected with a
network. The server operates on an operating system which permits a
multithreading by allocating time slices to thread. For each application, data
on a required transfer rate indicative of a permitted lowest transfer rate for
the application is prepared. Threads are generated for respective applications.
An initial number of slices are allocated to each thread to let said threads
transmit said respective applications. A transfer rate of each thread is
measured at a time interval. A number of slices to be allocated to each thread
is calculated such that the measured transfer rate of each thread (i.e., each
application) becomes equal to the required transfer rate of the application
transmitted by the thread.
