Abstract: A hierarchical biological modelling system and method provides integrated levels of information
synthesized from multiple sources (116, 118, 120, 121, 124, 126). An executable
model (114) of a biological system is developed from information and structures based on the
multiple sources. The model is balanced to ensure that it matches the information and structures.
Once the model is created and balanced it can be used to provide insight into phenomena
at the cellular or subcellular level as well as phenomena at the patient organ and system
levels. From this information clinical trials can be emulated. Biologic targets for drug development
can be identified and subcellular phenomena over time can be observed. The model

Abstract: When a silicone gel is injected into a case, since the gel is liquid before curing, the gel attempts to rise along a minute gap formed between a front face of a first electrode and a rear face of a resin member due to capillary action. However, since the gap becomes larger at a cavity in the first electrode, the rising motion of the gel stops at the level of the cavity. More specifically, the gel is prevented from reaching portions of the first electrode and a second electrode for connection with external terminals. Further, since the rising motion of the gel can be prevented by the cavity, the first electrode and the second electrode can be arranged in a close relationship with each other.

During the reverse operation state, however, the data stored in the secondary storage system 200R is copied to the intermediate storage system 200I via asynchronous copying and the data stored in the intermediate storage system 200I is copied to the primary storage system 200P via synchronous copying.

Abstract: A high-density optical disk and an optical disk drive therefor, which record data on lands and grooves are disclosed. Wobbles are formed in grooves and lands of an optical disk, and address information is embedded in the wobbles. The wobbles are formed so as to become in phase with each other in the grooves. An address of the land sandwiched between the grooves is detected from the wobble of the groove. When the wobble of the land is not an in-phase wobble but is of opposite phase, a gray code of the wobble is substituted with a binary address such that 0 is achieved when the gray code is converted into the binary address. As a result, even in the case of the wobble of opposite phase, the address information about the land is made coincident with address information about an inner-radius-side adjacent groove, thereby determining address information about the land.
