A system and method for signaling low-to-high layer switching points in a file format level to enable efficient scalable stream switching in streaming servers and local file playback. The present invention also provides for a system and method for signaling low-to-high layer switching points in video bit stream, e.g., to enable intelligent forwarding of scalability layers in media-aware network elements or computationally scalable decoding in stream recipients.

The failure knowledge storage 5 stores failure knowledge information describing countermeasure command selection information, of which a diversion to a failure other than failures described in a failure countermeasure rule in the rule storage 2 can be surmised. When the failure occurring in the service executor 11 matches the failure described in the failure countermeasure rule, the countermeasure retriever 3 executes the countermeasure command in the failure countermeasure rule on the service executor 11. It is decided whether or not a failure other than the failures described in the failure countermeasure rule matches a failure described in the failure knowledge information in the failure knowledge storage 5. When there is a match, the countermeasure command is read out of the rule storage 2 based on the selection information of the matched failure knowledge information and is executed on the service executor 11.

To provide an antibody against FGF23 and a pharmaceutical composition such as a preventive or therapeutic agent which can prevent or treat by suppressing an action of FGF23 by using the antibody. An antibody or its functional fragment against human FGF23 produced by hybridoma C10 (Accession No. FERM BP-10772).

The electrical load driving apparatus includes means for alternately lowering the gate voltages of two current supply transistors connected in parallel to each other at regular time intervals, a current being supplied to an electrical load through drain-source paths of both the current supply transistors, and means for detecting wire breakage in two current supply wires in which the current supply transistors are interposed respectively at portions near the electrical load with respect to the current supply transistors based on the drain-source voltages of the current supply transistors.

Electronic apparatus, such as a personal computer, is described comprising main operative functionality and a power provisioning system for powering the apparatus from an external power source, the power provisioning system comprising:—a main power supply output for energizing the main operative functionality of the apparatus when said power provisioning system is connected to said external power source, and a standby power source for energizing a subset of the components of the apparatus when said main power supply output is not energized, the apparatus further comprising a self contained subsystem including a memory for storing at least one parameter reflecting an internal state of the apparatus, said self contained subsystem being powered by said standby power source and including an encoder for encoding the parameters in an output signal and a transducer for generating a wireless transmission from the output signal, which transmission can be detected in the vicinity of the apparatus, so as to enable the parameter to be received and decoded.
