20120137206METHOD OF INPUTTING INFORMATION INTO AN ELECTRONIC FORM - Described is a method to communicate to a third party information for part of an electronic form that cannot be competed and then to incorporate returned information into the electronic form. In various embodiments, while filling in an electronic form, a requestor requests assistance in the form of information from a third party such as a supervisor. The requestor specifies a range of the part requiring assistance, and copies the partial form into a field of a message. An agent acquires information concerning the partial form based on the copy operation. The message including the information on the partial form is sent to the third party. The third party inputs information into an input field concerning the input request and returns the partial form in a message. The agent incorporates the information included in the returned message into the original electronic form.05-31-2012

20120229218CIRCUIT FOR COMPENSATING BASE CURRENT OF TRANSISTOR AND AMPLIFIER CIRCUIT PROVIDED WITH THE SAME - According to one embodiment, a circuit for compensating fluctuation of a base current of a transistor is presented. The transistor has a base connected with an input terminal. The compensation circuit is provided with a first transistor, a current mirror circuit and a second transistor. The current mirror circuit mirrors a current which is supplied to a base of the first transistor. Further, the current mirror circuit supplies the obtained mirror current to the base of the transistor to be compensated. A base of the second transistor is connected with the input terminal electrically. The second transistor causes an early effect in the first transistor.09-13-2012
