Methods of modeling anatomical structures, along with pathology including the vasculature, spine and internal organs, for visualization and manipulation in simulation systems. A representation of on the human vascular network is built up from medical images and a geometrical model produced therefrom by extracting topological and geometrical information. The model is constructed using topological and geometrical information. The model is constructed using segments containing topology structure information, flow domain information contour domain information and skeletal domain information. A realistic surface is then applied to the geometric model, by generating a trajectory along a central axis of the geometric model, conducting moving trihedron modeling along the generated trajectory and then creating a sweeping surface along the trajectory. A novel joint reconstruction approach is also proposed whereby a part surface sweeping operation is performed across branches of the joint and then a surface created over the resultatn holes therebetween. A 3-D mesh may also be generated, based upon this model, for finite element analysis and pathology creation.

An output from a generator section is controlled by a current converter section to be a constant current. Charging and discharging of a power storage section is controlled by a charge / discharge control circuit. Thereby, even in a case where a current value required by a load is high, the case can be dealt with in the manner that, while an output current from the generator section is being maintained constant, the output from the generator section and an output from the power storage section can be caused to function in cooperation with each other. Further, charging and discharging of the power storage section can be performed by a simplified device.

A language for semi-structured documents, XML has emerged as the core of the web services architecture, and is playing crucial roles in messaging systems, databases, and document processing. However, the processing of XML documents has a reputation for poor performance, and a number of optimizations have been developed to address this performance problem from different perspectives, none of which have been entirely satisfactory. Parallel XML parsing leverages the growing prevalence of multicore architectures in all sectors of the computer market, and yields significant performance improvements. The design consists of an initial preparsing phase to determine the structure of the XML document (or other data document), followed by a full, parallel parse. The results of the preparsing phase are used to help partition the XML document for data parallel processing. The parallel parsing phase is, for example, a modification of the libxml2 XML parser, which demonstrates that the approach applies to real-world, production quality parsers. Empirical study shows the parallel XML parsing algorithm can improve the XML parsing performance significantly and scales well.

When a plurality of faces are arranged in order of distance, a three-dimensional effect evaluation value r for each face is determined on the basis of a three-dimensional effect evaluation function Fl having a point A which internally divides the distance from the front side to the rear side in the depth direction at 1:2 as the vertex. A face with the maximum three-dimensional effect evaluation value r, serving as a face with the highest priority, is determined to be a main object. Then, three-dimensional processing is performed on a plurality of images such that the parallax of the determined main object is the minimum, thereby generating an image for three-dimensional display.
