Abstract: A membrane 12 that exhibits superior condensation resistance regardless of the type of moisture-permeable resin, that has satisfactory adhesion between a porous film and a reinforcing member, and that can be manufactured in a simple manner. 
     The membrane 12 is a laminated article 23 containing a porous film 20 and a reinforcing member 40, and the reinforcing member 40 has a moisture-permeable resin layer 30 on the side of an interface 50 with the porous film 20. To reliably form the moisture-permeable resin layer (moisture-permeable resin film) 30, the average pore diameter of the porous film 20 is preferably 0.01 to 10 µm, and the porosity of the reinforcing member 40 is preferably 30 to 95%. According to the membrane 12 of the present invention, even if the moisture-permeable resin is water-soluble (for example, polyvinyl alcohol), condensation resistance is still satisfactory. If the difference between the critical surface tension γ c2  of the reinforcing member 40 and the critical surface tension γ c1  of the porous film 20 (γ c2  - γ c1 ) is set in advance to -5 mN/m or greater, the moisture-permeable resin layer 30 can be disposed internally at a specific location.

Abstract: When a battery is in standby mode, a microcomputer (17) switches to sleep mode if no charging/discharging current is supplied within a predetermined time, and controls a timer so as to start measuring the standby time of the battery (12-1,12-2). When a charging/discharging current is supplied, the microcomputer switches to wake-up mode, and controls the timer (21) so as to stop measuring the standby time. Then, the microcomputer reads the measured standby time. Based on the read standby time, the microcomputer calculates the correction value to correct the currently stored remaining battery capacity value.

Abstract: A front end of an IPv6 communication network includes a network entry point device (114) and a plurality of tunnel servers (118) which facilitate the communication of user information between a host computer (108) of an IPv4 communication network (110) and an IPv6 wireless communication device (130). The network entry point device is configured to direct a tunnel request from the host computer to a selected tunnel server, which establishes a tunnel connection with the host computer. For the tunnel connection, the data packets can be encapsulated based on SSH, PPTP, L2TP, IPSec or PP standards. The tunnel server facilitates the communication of user information between the host and the wireless device through the tunnel connection. The tunnel server also performs a dynamic routing protocol (DRP). In accordance with the DRP, the tunnel server updates a local routing table to reflect the newly established tunnel connection and broadcasts updated routing table information to the other tunnel servers and at least one router (126). In another technical aspect, a back end of the IPv6 wireless device facilitates communication with the IPv6 wireless device when it operates in an IPv4 wireless communication network. This can be achieved by a router (126) encapsulating packets to the temporary IPv6 - address assigned to a wireless device (130) using a temporary IPv4 - address.

Abstract: The present invention provides patterned features of dimensions of less than 50 nm on a substrate. According to various embodiments, the features may be "Manhattan" style structures, have high aspect ratios, and/or have atomically smooth surfaces. The patterned features are made from polymer brushes grafted to a substrate. In some embodiments, the dimensions of the features may be determined by adjusting the grafting density and/or the molecular weight of the brushes. Once the brushes are patterned, the features can be shaped and reshaped with thermal or solvent treatments to achieve the desired profiles. The chemical nature of the polymer brush is thus independent of the patterning process, which allows for optimization of the polymer brush used for specific applications. Applications include masks for pattern transfer techniques such as reactive ion etching.

Abstract: An initial path deriver calculates a first estimation on the basis of at least a bent angle specified between two segments connecting last two measurement points of order-determined measurement points to a next candidate measurement point in the measurement order. It also determines a next measurement point on the basis of first estimations calculated using order-undetermined measurement points as next candidate measurement points. It further derives an initial path that passes through all measurement points from a first measurement point via every measurement point sequentially. An intersection-dissolution decider decides, when there is a location of intersection in a specific intersection form on a path intersecting location in an initial path, whether the intersection is to be dissolved or retained on the basis of a second estimation and a third estimation. A converted-path deriver derives a converted path by converting paths in the initial path in accordance with a decision resulted from the decider.
