A metal gasket which enables improvement of sealing properties by making sufficient compression of a full bead possible even if elastic coating is formed along the full bead. In the gasket () having a full bead (), formed on a metal substrate (), having a mountain-shaped protruding surface formed on one side in a thickness direction and a valley-shaped recessed surface formed on the other side in the thickness direction, elastic coating () is formed on the whole surface of the protruding surface of the full bead (), and the elastic coating () is formed on the recessed surface of the full bead (), except a slit-shaped elastic coating-free section () along a bottom section () of the recessed surface.

The invention provides a cylinder head gasket installed by being sandwiched between a cylinder block and a cylinder head of an internal combustion engine. The cylinder head gasket has bore holes each having a circular plane at positions which are lapped over a combustion chamber in said cylinder block, and surface pressure generation portions constructed by three-dimensional shapes surrounding said bore holes at positions which are lapped over partition walls between the combustion chamber in said cylinder block and a water jacket portion. The surface pressure generation portions are arranged at fixed positions in a thickness direction of said partition wall and are arranged closer to the combustion chamber side or the water jacket portion side than the fixed positions in the thickness direction of said partition wall partly on a circumference around the bore holes. Therefore, bore deformation can be reduced.

Cylinder head gasket and method of manufacturing the same

The present invention provides a highly-safe information processing system that is capable of effectively using nucleotide sequence information differences between individual organisms to offer semantic information useful for each individual organism while properly preventing leakage and illegal use of nucleotide sequence information. Further, the present invention includes steps a and b. Step a is performed to acquire either encrypted nucleotide sequence-related information or cryptographic key that corresponds to positional information indicating a position within a nucleotide sequence. Step b is performed to acquire the encrypted nucleotide sequence-related information or cryptographic key, whichever is not acquired in said step a, decrypt, with the cryptographic key, the encrypted nucleotide sequence-related information corresponding to the positional information compliant at least with a request for an object and/or a service, and acquire the nucleotide sequence-related information corresponding to the positional information compliant at least with the request for an object and/or a service.

Information processing system using nucleotide sequence-related information

A system for processing information for providing semantic information and/or information associated with the semantic information useful for each individual organism through effective utilization of differences in nucleotide sequence-related information among individual organisms is constructed. The method for processing information on a nucleotide sequence comprises: (a) receiving request information for an object and/or service; (b) obtaining positional information in accordance with the request information from a memory having positional information representing a position in a nucleotide sequence memorized therein; and (c) obtaining nucleotide sequence-related information corresponding to the positional information obtained in (b) above, and obtaining semantic information implied by the nucleotide sequence-related information and/or information associated with the semantic information.

This invention constructs a highly safe system for processing information for providing semantic information and/or information associated with the semantic information useful for each individual organism through effective utilization of differences in nucleotide sequence-related information among individual organisms. This system comprises steps of: (a) obtaining positional information representing a position in a nucleotide sequence in accordance with a request for an object and/or service; and (b) evaluating adequacy of transmission of nucleotide sequence-related information corresponding to the positional information obtained in step (a), based on the flag information associated with the positional information for evaluating adequacy of transmission of nucleotide sequence-related information associated with the positional information representing a position in a nucleotide sequence.

A highly safe system for processing information includes: (a) receiving requested information for en object and/or service; (b) obtaining positional information in accordance with the requested information from a memory having positional information representing a position in a nucleotide sequence memorized therein and transmitting the obtained positional information; (c) receiving, from among nucleotide sequence-related information associated with positional information, nucleotide sequence-related information corresponding to the positional information transmitted in step (b) and then obtaining semantic information implied by the received nucleotide sequence-related information and/or information associated with the semantic information; and (d) transmitting the semantic information and/or information associated with the semantic information obtained in step (c) in association with the positional information corresponding thereto to the party to which the positional information had been transmitted in step (b).
