Abstract: An improved above-the-knee prosthesis with an anatomically configured socket is
characterized by one or more contours which correspond to a pre-selected anatomical contour of
the upper or lower residual thigh. By exaggerating the depth of the contour in the socket as
compared with the corresponding contour in the thigh, the socket grips the residual thigh and
maintains the femur in proper alignment. The new channels and contours allow the patient using
the socket to have improved rotational support and control over the prosthesis by providing
structures which the muscles of the upper and lower residual thigh can "grip." The socket snugly
contains the thigh and maintains it, throughout the gait cycle, in a proper anatomical position.
This fit increases the comfort of the prosthesis and minimizes gait abnormalities common with
other artificial limbs. The increased support helps maintain the physical condition of the residual
limb. The extended and new channels allow the muscles of the patient's residual thigh to flex and
contract against and around the channels, thereby reducing muscle atrophy.

Abstract: In an internal combustion engine (1,100), a first exhaust passage (10A) having
an oxygen storing catalyst (11A) is connected to cylinders of a first group (1A), and
a second exhaust passage (10B) having an oxygen storing catalyst (11B) is connected
to cylinders of a second group (1B). These exhaust passages are joined as a
collective exhaust passage (10C). Normally, the air-fuel ratio of the first group
(1A) is feedback controlled based on the oxygen concentration of the first exhaust
passage (10A), and the air-fuel ratio of the second group (1B) is feedback controlled
based on the oxygen concentration of the second exhaust passage (10B). When
deterioration of the catalysts is diagnosed, the phases of the air-fuel ratio are

Abstract: A system allows data transfer in which the most
appropriate packet processing is executed according to the
performance of a terminal. A data transmission side stores
scalable-encoded data in a packet as a payload, assigns
priority-level information corresponding to a layer level of
the encoded data stored in the packet to a packet header,
and transmits the packet. A data receiving side performs
processing by referring to the priority-level information.
A level of priority dependent on an application is specified
in an RTP payload header according to the degree of
importance of scalable-encoded data, and a level of priority
is further specified in an IP header. The most appropriate
packet processing based on the performance of a terminal is
allowed. Re-transmission control based on the layer level
of encoded data is also allowed.

Abstract: A data transmitting/receiving system adds identifying information to a data packet
based on characteristics of the data. The identifying information can be a data type
of a payload data of an IP/UDP/RTP packet and/or a temporal data sequence of
the payload data. The IP/UDP/RTP packet added with the identifying information
is segmented into an IP/UDP/RTP header and IP/UDP/RTP data. The segmented
IP/UDP/RTP header and the IP/UDP/RTP data can be transmitted through
different channels. A receiver sends retransmission control information based on
the added identifying information extracted by the receiver, the retransmission
control information providing retransmission time and priority information. A
transmitter retransmits reception error occurring IP/UDP/RTP data according to
the retransmission control information received by the transmitter. Varying the
retransmission times and/or retransmission priority based on the data
characteristics, accommodates data retransmission so that data more influential to
data restoration in case of loss/damage can be received more stably.
