Abstract:
A range-conditional character string retrieving method and system capable of performing retrieval of a numerical value from a character string at an increased speed by shortening the time taken for generation of finite automaton, range condition retrieval for a character string containing admixedly numeric characters and non-numeric characters such as alphabetic letters and highly intelligent retrieval of a numerical value with designation of preceding and succeeding characters. Given range condition is partitioned in accordance with difference in the digit number between upper and lower limit values, whereon retrieval is performed in each of partitioned ranges in parallel. When a finite automaton transits from a predetermined state to at least two state in dependence on the result of collation of a character string subjected to retrieval, conditions for the state transitions are designated in terms of corresponding codes. A numerical value detecting unit for detecting a numerical value of interest from the character string subjected to retrieval is provided in association with a range decision unit for deciding whether the numerical value detected by the numerical value detecting unit falls within a specified range. A character string collating unit for retrieving a specific character string from the string subjected to retrieval is provided in association with a range condition collating unit for detecting a numerical value falling within a specific range from the specific character string.

Abstract:
An illumination apparatus includes a light source (1), a first integrator (11) into which light from the light source (1) enters, and a second integrator (33) into which light exiting from the first integrator (11) enters. Accordingly, the aperture shape of the first integrator (11) can be optimally designed, so that the light utilization efficiency can be increased. Furthermore, even when the length of the first integrator (11) is reduced, a deficiency in the light uniformity due to the first integrator (11) is compensated for by the second integrator (33), so that high uniformity can be secured at the surface to be illuminated.

Abstract:
A method for controlling a management computer connected to a server for permitting communications therebetween, wherein the server transmits to a client the result of processing executed in response to each processing request sent from the client. The management computer stores an allowance for a value indicative of a load on the server, receives from the server a value calculated on the basis of the number of processing requests from the client and the value indicative of the load on the server. The management computer calculates an allowance for the value calculated from the number of processing requests, based on the value calculated from the number of processing requests, the allowance for the value indicative of the load, and the value indicative of the load, and transmits to the server the calculated allowance for the value calculated from the number of processing requests.
