A pattern matching unit performs pattern matching on present data obtained this time in clinical examination of a part of a subject and previous data obtained last time in the clinical examination of the part with reference patterns. Reference patterns that are most closely approximate to the present data and the previous data are selected. A distance calculator calculates a distance between selected reference patterns. A determining unit determines whether a re-examination is necessary based on the distance.

A cartridge is set in a printer main unit, and has a remaining toner measurer which measures toner in a toner chamber upon setting of the cartridge. A cartridge memory stores information of a remaining toner amount measured previously. CPU compares the remaining toner amount measured newly with the remaining toner amount measured previously and read from the cartridge memory. If there is an increase in the toner, the cartridge is determined as improper cartridge reloaded with the toner. An alarm signal is generated. Also, printing is inhibited. In another preferred embodiment, shortage information is assigned to the cartridge upon using up the toner. The cartridge, if it has the shortage information, is determined as improper. If a characteristic of the toner is not within a reference range, the cartridge is determined improper. In another preferred embodiment, an upper limit of the number of times of toner reloading is predetermined. The cartridge is determined improper if the reloading time number comes up to the upper limit. The improper cartridge is set in a state in which operation is inhibited. Also, when the cartridge is disassembled, the improper cartridge is inhibited from operating.

In a method for checking the plausibility of objects in driver assistance systems for motor vehicles is described, two measured variables are derived from position data from two object position-finding systems of the vehicle that operate independently of one another, for an object located by the two position-finding systems, one variable for each position-finding system, these variables representing one and the same physical parameter, and the two measured variables are then checked for consistency, which is characterized by the fact that the parameter is the time to collision of the vehicle with the object, which is calculated in advance.

An encryption error monitoring system for checking packets transmitted between a private network and an external network. The system includes includes a detector module (60) which is connected to receive the packet for determining whether or not the packet is successfully encrypted in accordance with a specific security protocol such as IPSec (Internet Protocol Security). The detector module reads from the packet a sender's address and a destination address, and provides an error signal when the packet is judged not to be successfully encrypted. A manager module (80) is connected to the detector module within the private network to create, upon receipt of the error signal, a report including the sender's address and the destination address with regard to the packet judged not to be successfully encrypted. The detector module is configured to have a judge means (66) which reads a header of the packet and checks whether or not the header includes a protocol code that matches with a particular code identifying the specific security protocol. When the header does not include the protocol code in match with the particular code, the judge means provides the error signal to notify the encryption error. Thus, the encryption error can be determined only by referring to the unencrypted header and therefore without necessitating the decryption of the packet.

In order to check endoscope channels, a predetermined quantity of liquid is led, at a predetermined pressure, through the channel that is to be checked, and the period of time for this is measured and evaluated. The predetermined quantity of liquid is determined via the volume of a liquid container whose outlet is capable of being connected to the channel that is to be checked. A compressed air source subjects the liquid in the container to a predetermined pressure. A sensor registers whether the liquid level in the container has dropped below a predefined value. A control unit measures the period of time within which the predetermined volume of liquid has flowed through the channel that is to be checked.

A layout check system checks whether a layout of a power source, a component including a power pin, and a bypass capacitor on a PCB and defined by layout data created using a CAD system allows the bypass capacitor to function effectively. A storage unit stores the layout data that includes information used as a basis to calculate a first value corresponding to impedance between the power pin and the power source and a second value corresponding to impedance between the power pin and the bypass capacitor. A calculation unit calculates the first value and the second value with use of the information. A judgment unit judges whether the layout allows the bypass capacitor to function effectively, by comparing the first value with the second value. When a result of the judgment is negative, an output unit outputs error information.

In a method for monitoring the function of a sensor module, which has a sensor, by means of the sensor a measurement signal for a physical quantity to be determined is generated and applied to an output terminal in an unchanged form or in processed form—after at least one linear signal processing step and/or at least one nonlinear signal processing step are performed. In addition, a test signal is generated whose spectrum lies substantially outside the spectrum of the measurement signal. The test signal is supplied at a place in the sensor from which it reaches the output terminal in unchanged form or in processed form—after the performance of the at least one linear signal processing step—only in the case of a functional sensor. An output signal present at the output terminal is compared with the test signal and a diagnosis signal is generated, which indicates whether the test signal is present at the output terminal. The test signal is filtered out of the output signal and the remaining signal is applied as the measurement signal at a measurement signal output of the sensor module.
