A power amplifying apparatus according to an embodiment includes a first amplifying unit having a first amplifying element to amplify an input signal, a second amplifying unit having a second amplifying element to amplify an output signal from the first amplifying unit; and a bias supply unit giving bias values to the first amplifying element and the second amplifying element, respectively, the bias values causing the first amplifying element and the second amplifying element to operate in a non-linear region.

Power amplifying apparatus and power amplifying method

A packet switching system including at least one switching node or local unit each including a label conversion unit for accommodating a plurality of packet circuits and performing conversion into output port information of a switch based on a logic channel on a packet circuit, a self-routing switch for performing switching based on the output port information, and a control unit for terminating a control packet and performing the call processing function. A switching node or tandem unit is provided including at least one self-routing switch for interconnecting the local units. A device is provided for setting, between the tandem unit and a destination-side local unit, the same logic channel as that between an originating-side local unit operative for information transfer and the tandem unit in respect of a call destined for a local unit other than this local unit and a device.

A program which can render an object dynamically by using metaballs in a three-dimensional imaginary space is provided. All metaballs MB are disposed in an imaginary box IB, (r/R)is calculated according to a calculation equation expressing a given solid shape of a metaball MB from a center of the metaball MB towards the minimum direction and the maximum direction of a voxel index of a voxel Vx for each vertex of the voxel Vx. At this time, a second-order divided difference is calculated, based upon the second-order divided difference and a first-order divided difference calculated last time the first-order divided difference is updated, and (r/R)is calculated (Sand S) Only two times of addition are performed by utilizing information on vertexes of the adjacent voxels Vx calculated last time, thereby a computation time for (r/R)can be shortened.

The object of the invention is to automatically select an optimum printing device according to the characteristics of a page in units of pages to print the page, thereby reducing the load on the operator in print processing. For this purpose, it is determined in units of pages whether data to be printed contains color information. If color information is present, a color flag is set to ON. When the color flag is ON, print data prepared and developed in a page buffer is sent to a color printer. When the color flag is OFF, the print data prepared and developed in the page buffer is sent to a monochromatic printer.

An ATM switching system comprises a switch unit including a plurality of input ports and a plurality of output ports having the same cell transmission rate, and a multiplexer for multiplexing cell trains outputted from at least two output ports into a single cell train and outputting the cell train to a high-speed output line (and/or a demultiplexer for demultiplexing a cell train from an output port into a plurality of cell trains and outputting the cell trains to a plurality of low-speed output lines). The switch unit includes a buffer memory for temporarily storing cells inputted from the input ports while forming a queue chain for each output line to which each cell is to be outputted, a demultiplexer for distributing the cells read from the buffer memory among the output ports in circulation, and a buffer memory control circuit for controlling the write and read operation of cells with the shared buffer memory. The buffer memory control circuit has a control table device for outputting an identifier of an output line to which the cells read from the shared buffer memory are to be outputted, and cells are read from the chain designated by the output line identifier outputted from the control table device.
