A vibration damping device for suppressing vibrations of a structure includes: a slide body mechanism having a concave slide body and a convex slide body which are fixed to the structure and are arranged so as to be slidable relative to each other in a reciprocating manner; and a biasing means which pushes the slide bodies to each other. Multimedia packetized stream data packets are received through a receiving hardware system. The tissue contacting wall is fabricated from a non-conductive material and includes a plurality of apertures formed therethrough. The aperture diameter of the first wick portion is larger than that of the second wick portion, or the aperture density of the first wick portion is smaller than that of the second wick portion. A blank time optimizer may receive data from the scaler positioning module at a first clock rate and distributed memory accesses based on a bandwidth requirement determination.
