A processor which is switchable between a first execution mode (such as a scalar mode) and a second execution mode (such as a VLIW mode) is disclosed. The processor has a first processor context when in the first execution mode and a second processor context, different from the first processor context, when in the second execution mode. The processor generates an exception when the processor attempts to change from one execution mode to the other. When the processor switches to a thread of execution which is in the first execution mode, or when the processor switches to a thread of execution which was the last thread to be in the second execution mode, only the first processor context is preserved. The processor may be arranged such that the number of threads that may be in the second execution mode at any one time is less than the total number of threads that may be active on the processor at any one time.

A method for performing expression-based validation with records in a computer system database, eliminating the need to write programs or scripts. A validation expression can define complex intra-record tests and inter-record tests and may be performed manually against one or more records and have a success or failure indicated for each record in an interface. A validation expression may be placed into one or more groups and performed as a group with the success or failure indicated for each record. A validation expression may be initiated from workflows to implement a business process with system-enforced data integrity. A validation expression may be manually executed or automatically executed when attempting record update to prevent the entry of invalid data and ensure data integrity. A validation expression may also be used to search using the Boolean result of validation expressions.

Provided are: a formic acid decomposition apparatus which can dispose of formic acid safely and quickly and determine the activity of a packed catalyst; and a formic acid decomposition method. This formic acid decomposition apparatus is to be used in decomposing formic acid contained in an exhaust gas into water and carbon dioxide, said exhaust gas being discharged from a soldering device in which the reduction treatment of surface oxide film with formic acid has been conducted. The formic acid decomposition apparatus is provided with: a formic acid decomposition unit in which a formic acid decomposition catalyst is packed; a gas introduction pipe for introducing a formic acid-containing gas into the formic acid decomposition unit; and a gas introduction mechanism for introducing oxygen or an oxygen-containing gas into the formic acid decomposition unit. In the formic acid decomposition apparatus, the activity of the catalyst is determined on the basis of catalyst temperature change due to the heat generated in the decomposition reaction of formic acid. This formic acid decomposition method comprises: mixing oxygen or an oxygen-containing gas with a formic acid-containing exhaust gas discharged from a soldering device, in which the reduction treatment of surface oxide film with formic acid has been conducted, at a molar ratio of oxygen to formic acid (oxygen / formic acid) of 1.5 or more; subjecting the mixture to reaction in the presence of a formic acid decomposition catalyst; and thus decomposing the formic acid into water and carbon dioxide.

A hydrogen generation device includes: a reforming unit for steam-reforming raw material containing at least carbon atoms and hydrogen atoms to generate a hydrogen-containing gas; a raw material supply unit for supplying a raw material to the reforming unit; a steam generation unit for supplying steam to the reforming unit; a steam generation unit temperature detection unit for detecting the temperature of the steam generation unit; a heating unit for supplying a combustion gas for successively heating the reforming unit and the steam generation unit by heat transfer; and a control unit. The control unit controls a raw material supply amount from the raw material supply unit and a water supply amount from a water supply unit and controls one of the air amount to the heating unit, a fuel amount to the heating unit, and the raw material amount to the reforming unit so that no water remains in the steam generation unit according to the detected temperature from the steam generation unit temperature detection unit. Thus, it is possible to operate the hydrogen generation device without leaving water in the steam generation unit and to provide a hydrogen generation device operation method having a high reliability and economy and a hydrogen generation device using the same as well as a fuel cell generation system using the hydrogen generation device.

To provide an eyelash shaping tool capable of easily radially loosening eyelashes, shaping the root to the tip of the eyelashes, improving cleanability so as not to easily accumulate mascara and maintaining the fixed shaping property of the eyelashes even at the time of using the mascara. An eyelash shaping part (3) is provided so as to project from a grip part (2) in the longitudinal direction, a heating part (6) having a prescribed length in the longitudinal direction is provided inside the eyelash shaping part (3), and a comb member (5) is provided attachably to and detachably from a base member (14) facing the heating part (6).

The invention provides a separator plate installation cavity structure for an electrical power distribution cabinet. The structure comprises a connecting slot, a connecting strip and a front door. Insert holes are circular through holes, and are arranged in side plates; the insert holes are arranged in three rows; and the insert holes in each row are equally spaced. Protection hooks are L-shaped bending plates, are welded to the left and right sides of a cabinet body and are arranged above slots. Two opening-opposite protection hooks are arranged above each slot. Two fans are embedded in the left and right walls of the cabinet body respectively, and are within the shielding range of a filter screen. The front door is connected to the front side surface of the cabinet body. The separator plate installation cavity structure is simple in structure, can divide the space inside the cabinet freely, can change freely according to the size of electrical components, and can make full use of theinternal space to separate the components, thereby reducing fetters during maintenance and repairing, increasing safety of maintenance and repairing and reducing the phenomenon of misconnection during line maintenance; and the structure has good ventilation, thereby preventing internal heat storage.
