According to the present invention, the bandwidth of a TDD channel is increased where multiple slave devices communicate with a master device over the channel. The first information storage area 20A contains, in advance, an OS or mpeg data. The same procedure is applied to determine corresponding reference, binary numbers for all of the other AD conversion reference levels. The reset controller is configured, when the coprocessor core resets, to transfer the pending configuration data from the configuration data queue to be stored in the coprocessor core, replacing the current configuration data. Moreover, the wall of the micro-scale channel and the constituent particles are configured such that collisions between the constituent particles and the wall are substantially specular. The bodies are believed to trigger an apoptosis-like mechanism in the patient.
