Abstract: An object surface is rendered by not only grid lines
indicating a slope in the surface of an object, but also by
moving objects which move over the object surface. The
objects move with a speed corresponding to the slope angle on
the object surface. A player of a computer game such as golf
in which the ball is the moving object and the object surface
is a green enable the player to refer to the grid lines and to
the movement of the ball. As a result the movement of the
ball is such that the player is provided with a visually
perceivable effect of minute slopes and bumps on the green.

Abstract: A "row-diagonal" (R-D) parity technique reduces overhead of computing
diagonal parity for a storage array adapted to enable efficient recovery from the
concurrent failure of two storagc devices in the array. The diagonal parity is computed
along diagonal parity sets that collectively span all data disks and a row parity disk of
the array. The parity for all of the diagonal parity sets except one is stored on the
diagonal parity disk. The R-D parity technique provides a uniform stripe depth and an
optimal amount of parity information.

Abstract: The present invention relates to balancing apparatus
for rotating a body (300) to be measured so that the body
vibrates due to the dynamic imbalance thereof. The
vibration of the body is transmitted to a vibration member
(104) and then detected by sensors (155R). Vibrators (155R)
are connected to the vibration member. The vibrators apply
to the vibration member a vibration that is an inverse of
a vibration that will be generated in the vibration member
by an ideal body having an ideal dynamic imbalance. By
detecting the vibration remaining in the vibration member,
the balancing apparatus measures the deviation of the
dynamic imbalance of the body from the ideal dynamic
imbalance.
