Abstract: [Object] To avoid documents from colliding head-on with each other to be largely damaged in an image reader in which a conveyance route at the time of double-sided reading intersects with itself. 
     [Means for Settlement] At a branch point C1, a path switching part 17 that switches between a double-sided path and a single-sided path is provided. The double-sided path is adapted to be a conveyance route that passes through a reading position C2 from the branch point C1 to enter a conveyance path B3 that makes a document A U-turn, and then again passes through the reading position C2 to be discharged to a paper discharge tray 12. On the other hand, the single-sided path is adapted to be a conveyance route that, without passing through the reading position C2, merges into the conveyance path B3 from the branch point C1. Over the double-sided path, document detecting sensors DS4 and DS5 are provided, and on the basis of detection results by them, a collision determination part 32 determines a possibility of a collision between documents, and if it determines that the documents will collide with each other, the path switching part 17 switches the double-sided path to the single-sided path to thereby avoid the documents from colliding head-on with each other in the vicinity of the reading position C2.

Abstract: An attribute propagation method and a switch system based on a fiber channel network are disclosed. According to the present invention, after an attribute is registered on one of its ports, each switch can automatically use its port on the other side to propagate this attribute, and a next adjacent switch can register this attribute on its port on the same side, so that ports on one side of all switches can have this attribute registered automatically. Hereafter, after the attribute is registered its port on the other side, each switch can automatically use its port on said one side that has been registered to propagate this attribute reversely and a next adjacent can register this attribute on its port on the other side, so that ports on the other side of all switches can automatically have this attribute registered. In this way, there is no need to manually configure each port. Instead, the attribute can be registered automatically on ports on both sides of all switches, thus improving the configuration efficiency for port attributes. Furthermore, the present invention can enable propagation of any attribute, thus making the present invention have a high popularity.
