An appliance located states accumulating method includes the steps of, receiving state information indicating operating state changes of the appliances constituted of a distributed computer through a network, calculating an occurrence time difference from the state changes occurred in the appliances in accordance with occurrence time information indicative of occurrence times of the state changes included in the state information, and calculating the positional relation of the positions, where the appliances occur the state changes, from the calculated occurrence time difference, thereby accumulating the positional relation of the installed appliances.
摘要:
Distributed information integrating method and apparatus for collecting data requested by a program at a data request side, integrating the collected data and supplying the integrated data to the request-side program irrespective of the existence of a processing device storing the data and a transmission medium. An event linking data table 232 stores the name of data to be collected in response to an occurring event and a transmission destination of the collected data. Filtering processing 222 refers to the event linking data table 232 in response to an event occurring on a self processing device and a message event received through a transmission medium to collect the data stored in the self processing device, and transmits the collected data to a transmission destination. A data integration management table 233 sets the items of data to be integrated while dividing the items for every data name of the collection data. Data integration processing 224 receives collection data from another processing device to integrate the collection data according to the setting of the data integration management table 233, and delivers the integrated data to an application program 212.
摘要:
A process for producing magnetic metallic oxide which comprises the steps of pulverizing at least one member selected from the group consisting of ferro-manganese, ferro-nickel, electrolytic manganese, electrolytic iron and electrolytic zinc, adding to the substance thus pulverized at least one member selected from the group consisting of oxides of Fe, Mn, Ni, Cu, Mg, Zn and Co and salts of Fe, Mn, Ni, Cu, Mg, Zn and Co which become oxides by heating, wet pulverizing and mixing the mixture upon oxidation, thereby producing a slurry, and heating said slurry at 800.degree. to 1450.degree. C. By this process, a magnetic ferrite can be stably and inexpensively synthesized.

摘要:
In providing services in an environment in which apparatuses constituting a system change dynamically, flexible control of access control is performed for the apparatuses whose access rights and service providing policies are different or have not been set beforehand. In a distributed system where computers each having a function of storing data and processing a program and a communication facility perform data exchange through a communication medium, and thereby perform processing, control of limiting an access to the system etc. is performed as a shared session that is established by synthesizing access rights and service providing policies owned by the apparatuses, and accesses to the apparatuses and provision of services are performed through the shared session, whereby the access rights and the services to be provided are controlled according to a configuration of apparatuses constituting the system.
摘要:
Access to restricted areas or devices are controlled by based on collecting information about the surrounding environment in connection with those restricted areas or service devices. Generally, one refers to service devices and access to service devices. Area access control can be viewed as being provided by a service device (e.g., an automated door or gate), access to which permits entry to (or exit from) a controlled area. Information about the surrounding environment includes, but is not limited to, the presence or absence of particular individuals, the presence or absence of other service devices, the location and/or proximity of other service devices, the location of the user requesting access to the service device, and so on. Based on knowledge of the surrounding environment, service access to the device can be permitted or denied.
摘要:
For a group consisting of a plurality of users, data of users who constitute the group is acquired. Thereafter, the users are made to stay in a certain area by determining a user having high importance in the group based on the user data acquired and by providing adequate data to a user having high importance, and then data related to the group is provided. With the arrangement, for a case where a plurality of intended persons are to simultaneously receive data such as advertising and such intended persons form a group, it is possible to effectively notify data in an adequate method.
摘要:
In a distributed system having a plurality of equipment that are interconnected over transmission medium and that include one or more arithmetic units, any of the plurality of equipment notifies a person to be notified about a function of the any of the equipment in accordance with an adaptive communication method in which the notification method is determined by the following steps. A first step that any of the plurality of equipment obtains environment information of that equipment and another equipment if necessary and a second step that any of the equipment determines the notification method depending on the environment information obtained by the first step and a contents of information concerning the function of any of the equipment.

An adiabatic expansion apparatus 22 with a built-in turbine impeller 12 adiabatically expands gas at a cryogenic temperature when the impeller rotates. A control device 24 is connected coaxially with the turbine impeller to control the impeller. A variable nozzle mechanism 30 is provided for varying the throat area for the gas at a cryogenic temperature to be introduced into the turbine impeller. The adiabatic expansion apparatus is installed in a vacuum vessel 14, and a control device is disposed outside the vacuum vessel. The variable nozzle mechanism comprises a nozzle component 32 built into the adiabatic expansion apparatus, and a driving component 34 installed outside the vacuum vessel. The nozzle component and the driving component are connected to the turbine impeller with a coaxial, thin cylindrical component 36, and drive the nozzle component when the cylindrical component rotates about the axis Z of the turbine impeller. The actuator and most of components of the nozzle driving mechanism can be installed at normal temperature under atmospheric pressure, the heat input can be suppressed to an extremely minimal level, and the variable nozzle of the expansion turbine can be driven. Thus, according to the invention, helium gas at a cryogenic temperature can be expanded adiabatically at a high adiabatic efficiency.
摘要:
A method of localizing a moving body, by which the magnitude of parameters, which can give rise to bias errors, is estimated inversely from the difference between two locations of the moving body estimated by two different localization methods. Various quantities (position of sensors, propagation velocity of radiation, etc.), on the basis of which localization operations are carried out, can be corrected by using the magnitude thus estimated. The emission time of the radiation from the moving body can be estimated by the hyperbolic surface localization method and the spherical surface localization method can utilize the emission time thus estimated to localize the moving body. Further, localization errors caused by both localization methods can be estimated, so that it is possible to determine which localization method should be used to localize the moving body.
