TL;DR: In this paper, a message display has a tape (6) carrying different messages, and a motor drives the tape to a position that places the selected message behind the window, and the curtain is then removed.
Abstract: The message display has a tape (6) carrying different messages. The messages are visible in a window (5). To view another message a curtain (7) masks the window, and a motor drives the tape to a position that places the selected message behind the window. The tape is positioned by computing the number of messages separating the present message from the desired message to determine the operating time of the motor. The tape is stopped and the message behind the window identified. If it is not correct the tape is moved again until it is correct. The curtain is then removed.

TL;DR: In this article, a failure dictionary 20 is prepared on the basis of a result of extracting in advance a cover area for total failure detecting circuit, and consists of a failure detection circuit, processor components, and correspondence information for selector signals, cover for failure defecting circuit, information of connecting between logical elements included in the area, and so on.
Abstract: PURPOSE:To enhance indicated resolution and precision of a defective part when the defect occurs by referring to a failure dictionary for parts including components of the processor, and by indicating a processor component part group included in a limited cover area as defective parts. CONSTITUTION:A failure dictionary 20 is prepared on the basis of a result of extracting in advance a cover area for total failure detecting circuit, and consists of a failure detecting circuit, processor components, and correspondence information for selector signals, cover for failure defecting circuit, information of connecting between logical elements included in the area, and so on. Failure analysis section 100 recognizes a leading light failure detecting circuit (FD) from a detected state of failure information 10, obtains bus selecting information from information 10 and the corresponding information of selector signals stored in dictionary 20, analyses the bus selecting information, and specifies a data transfer bus in the case of the occurrence of a failure. Failure analysis section 200 extracts a cover area from the content of the register of information 10 and inter-register connecting information. Failure analysis section 300 extracts a cover area for the case where a plurality of FDs exist. With this, a cover area is limited, thereby enhancing the indicated resolution and its accuracy.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors propose to search for literature according to its image by structuring the data base of images of literature by using three keys, i.e. the front cover, back cover, and endpaper.
Abstract: PURPOSE:To search for literature according to its image by structuring the data base of images of literature. CONSTITUTION:Images of the front cover, back cover, and endpaper of literature are read by an image scanner 2 and the obtained digital data are processed by an image processing means 4 into data which can be retrieved. Then the processed digital data are stored as the data base in a mass-storage memory device 7 while classified into the images of the front cover, back cover, and endpaper by a data base structuring means 5. The stored data base is retrieved by an image data retrieval means 11 by using three keys, i.e. the front cover, back cover, and endpaper. Literature index information is added to this retrieval result and the retrieval result of the literature index information is received and displayed together with the added image information. Consequently, the image retrieval of literature is enabled.

TL;DR: In this paper, a function key cover composed of an N type control panel, host computer and console is used to make the pushdown of a key block invalid or the like without depending on the processing of a host computer.
Abstract: PURPOSE:To make the push-down of a key block invalid or the like without depending on the processing of a host computer by covering the function key block with the function key cover in the fitting state. CONSTITUTION:This function key cover is composed of an N type control panel 1, host computer 2 and console 3. In this case, when an operator fits a function key cover 5 to a function key block 4, the push-down of the key block 4 is automatically made invalid and when the key cover 5 is detached, the push-down of the key block 4 is automatically made valid. Namely, according to the timing of fitting the key cover 5 to the key block 4, the push-down of the key block 4 is made invalid without requiring the processing of the host computer 2 and according to the timing of detaching the key cover from the key block 4, the push-down of the key block 4 is switched from the invalid state to the valid state without requiring the processing of the host computer.

TL;DR: In this paper, the problem of searching a satellite line available for communication in the case of communication via a communication satellite from a travelling object from a traveling object by judging in which cover area of the satellite line stored in a cover area information storage section a current position measured by a position measuring means resides, and making communication in a relevant cover area.
Abstract: PURPOSE:To easily search a satellite line available for communication in the case of communication via a communication satellite from a travelling object by judging in which cover area of a satellite line stored in a cover area information storage section a current position measured by a position measuring means resides, and making communication in a relevant cover area. CONSTITUTION:A position measuring means 17 at the current position of a travelling object 1 and a cover area information storage section 19 for a satellite line by a communication satellite 3 are provided and in which cover area of a satellite line stored in the cover area information storage section 19 a current position measured by the position measuring means 17 resides is discriminated and the communication is made in the satellite line in the relevant cover area. Thus, the satellite line available of communication in response to the current position of the travelling object 1 is immediately judged and the number of lines whose communication state is confirmed is considerably reduced to search required satellite lines by searching a satellite line offering the best communication state among the communication available satellite lines and the job of searching the required satellite lines is facilitated.
