The present invention is directed to multipurpose containers in which a variety of items can be stored, such as eyeglasses writing instruments, pills, medicines, thermometers, rulers, note pads, to name a few of the nearly limitless number of items that can be stored. A plurality of egress processors are coupled to the plurality of ingress processors via a switch fabric. Based upon the job, the control unit stores the image data in a prescribed box area and outputs the image data from the prescribed box area. The memory arrangement includes at least two memory bank access devices configured to facilitate accessing the data of the at least one memory cell of each of the at least two memory banks. The validated location of the terminal can also be used for validating the location of an end point used by the terminal in an access network with fixed end points, or for validating a used positioning mechanism. Various color spectral photometer arrangements are disclosed.
